GotGame Truth Machine: Nintendo Execs Respond to PS4

GotGame: After several months of rumors and speculation Sony has announced the PS4, and Nintendo will finally have a direct rival in the next generation battlefield. With the Wii U still struggling to find its place in the world of gaming, the PS4 certainly presents a challenge. Nintendo has usually been very reluctant to talk about tech specs, but after doing some uhhhhh… things… (I’ll never be able to look at myself in the mirror again), I was able to obtain a round table interview with Nintendo President Satoru Iwata, legendary game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime, and Scott Moffitt, vice president of sales and marketing . What did they have to say about the Wii U present, future, and Sony’s incoming console? Find out by reading my exclusive interview!

This is freakin' hilarious!!!

[Knight_Crawler]

The bias towards everything Playstation in this site is disgusting.

The mods should be a shame and one day will regret how bias they are towards one console.

Why is this on the top page? It's not a real Nintendo response, some PS troll felt like trolling Nintendo so he put this cr@p together.

Funny how news like this and that satire that was done about the 720 reach top page in matter of secs but when its something making fun of SONY the articles get downvoted and hardly reach the top page.

[UnholyLight]

Best part of this article is Whats big and red and comes around once a year?

Santa?

No, Sony’s financial reports.

LOL. I enjoyed this too much, although it may no longer be true, it has quite a bit of truth to it this gen though!!

All in good fun, this article equally made fun of Nintendo.

"It's not a real Nintendo response, some PS troll felt like trolling Nintendo so he put this cr@p together."

Things the article makes fun of...

- Sony's financials
- Vita sales
- Move
- PS4's touchpad

Yup. Must be the work of a "PS troll".

Dat bias.

You should probably lighten up man. I happen to be an absolutely huge Nintendo fan. I have posters of Kid Icarus Uprising and Skyward Sword on my wall. I have a Wii U, and I'm legitimately excited about its future. I've owned every Nintendo console to date including the virtual boy. A PS Troll? Certainly not. If you don't believe me, put my name (in the article) into google and see how much pro Nintendo stuff pops up.

I'm a huge Nintendo fan, and I anticipate that I will be one until I die. That being said, I'm still able to poke fun at Nintendo while throwing several jabs at Sony along the way. More than anything, I just wanted to do something unique from the typical op ed pieces you see around here, and hopefully entertain people. Some people didn't dig it, but a lot of people seemed entertained. Are we so caught up in these fanboy wars that everything is seen as an attack?

[mistertwoturbo]

Umm... If you actually read the satirical article, it makes fun of Sony as much as they make fun of Nintendo.

[XXDubStepXX]

Its just so sad to see people act so cowardice when theres no identity involved. all youre doing is speaking your mind about something and of course youre hammered with disagrees. not because your opinion is foolish but because people dont like the truth theyre hearing.

[rainslacker]

Well...as a Sony fan I'm rather annoyed at how grossly misleading the title and description were. I would actually be interested in reading a real article about this very topic, and the fake questions weren't bad up to where I stopped at least.

Come on Mods, at least put up a note that it is satire, maybe add that it's not good satire at that.

[Jadedz]

Um...
I have no clue what I just read (satire clearly, but I didn't find it funny).

[LOL_WUT]

Cheer, up will ya? It was clearly made for the lol'z ;)

[sidar]

Who ever said he is a downer? He simply stated that he didn't like it.

What is that? Someone doesn't agree with your humor? Will we all loose our heads now?

[WrAiTh Sp3cTr3]

Cuz u iz Jaded...whoosh..

[delboy]

Funny read.

Ram and big red jokes are best.

[SOULJER]

A sad comedy at best

[corrus]

This is all fake BS

[contradictory]

no shit sherlock

[r21]

Kinda disappointed it wasnt their real responses. Made me laugh though :D Thanks for that.

[kgamer20]

This provided me with many LoL's whilst i was typing my essay. ;-)

[dafegamer]

not sure if real interview or trolling

[GEO9875]

Was this supposed to be funny? Cuz it wasnt..,l

[computeSci]

I didn't find that funny at all. To each their own i guess :-/

[Rainstorm81]

"but after doing some uhhhhh… things… (I’ll never be able to look at myself in the mirror again)"

JAPANESE BUKKAKE?!?! O_O

[solid_warlord]

This is defo not an actual interview. Its not even common to have the three biggest execs in one interview together especially from an unknown game website and outside E3 week.

[JustinWeinblatt]

Good work Nancy Drew.

[gamer42]

Reggie Fils-Aime: Oh yeah. More powerful hardware. That’s worked out real great for them in the past. I have a riddle for you. Whats big and red and comes around once a year?

Scott Moffitt: Santa?

Reggie Fils-Aime: No, Sony’s financial reports

*Scott and Reggie high five. *
I'm afraid to laugh...

[Amigaengine]

brought tears of laughter to my eyes

[LastXeno]

Didn't find that funny.

[porkChop]

So many people calling this fake. NO SHIT. That's the entire point, it's a joke story.

[Ramon3MR]

Exactly! Satire folks; have a laugh!

[smashman98]

Lol loved the miyamoto parts

[Derekvinyard13]

Lmao

[arbitor365]

the part with reggie was had me almost on the floor

[arbitor365]

edit: (typo)

the part with Reggie almost had me on the floor

[headblackman]

and I almost bought that Wii u garbage. I'm so glad I dodged that bullet.

[Evil-snuggles]

the Wii u is going down in flames and these 3 are high fiving and telling jokes only in Nintendo Land

[Xer0_SiN]

hiphop gamer, where you at? you supposed to be cracking all these juicy stories.

[MultiConsoleGamer]

The title of this article should have contained the word parody. The fact that is was approved in the first place severely damges the already tarnished reputation N4G.

The fact is this article makes a false claim about it's content and it should not have been approved. Period.

[slimpickens]

Good stuff lol.

[PS4isKing_82]

I'm seeing lots of disagrees to ppl who like this article. It's just for laughs ppl. Lighten up. It wasn't real. Yes I enjoyed it, it's nice to see fanboyism isn't in everyone. Games are meant for fun everyone, not hate and disdain for each other just because someone doesn't use your preferred console. Just play games and have fun ppl.

[TemplarDante]

I read this yesterday Lol Hillarious! lol

[emerica1254]

I knew about author like 30 years ago before anybody else, so if you think he is funny then you are like 365 days behind me.

[lovegames718]

They have nothing better to do as they have no games to play and the ones they do have to play are still stuck in the 90's lol Yes Nintendo innovates lol hahahahaha

By the way you shouldnt mock Sony being in the red as its due to many variables and def. not due to their sales in ps3 or software. On the other hand why is Nintendo always profiting lol they take you guys for a ride and sell underwhelming tech for a premium price. Good example the 3ds was a crazy inflated price and was being sold at the same price of a vita (we all know vita cost way more to make) and they swindled first time consumers then brought the price down because they could and still made a profit! Shame on you Nintendo and shame on the suckers that bought 3ds for initial launch price when it was worth half that.

[Martywren]

It was funny.

[KingKevo]

That was really funny. Well done xD
