*Reading from journal*

Nintendo's Journal. May 17th, 2013: Game cases in alley this morning, tire tread on broken discs. This EA's afraid of me. I've seen it's true face. The games are extended DLC's and the games are full of blood and when their greed finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the Gamers and Journalists will look up and shout "Save us!"... and I'll whisper "No."

If this seriously happened, then wow this whole situation has been completely overblown by everyone. Guy didn't deserve it to happen regardless of what you think about his comments, losing your position after 14 years at a company due to some Twitter messages, damn.
 
Phony outrage and professional victims UNITE!! I love the "unprofessional" comments. Have you people ever worked ANYWHERE?!! CEO's, CFO's, managers, presidents etc. spout this shit on a daily basis. The politicians in our country and around the world destroy each other on live television in debates. Why the Southern Belle attitudes every time someone says something that's pretty tame (and where 90 percent of this site agrees with). We bitch when "no one comes out against gaming companies" then we bitch when they do. Too many sniveling pussies sitting in a dark room thinking they have the power to dictate what is offensive and what isn't. The thing is NO ONE was offended, outraged, disgusted by these comments. We've just morphed into a society that HAS to have a knee jerk reaction to anything we may perceive as being controversial or "offensive".

We're going in circles because you're missing the point, maybe willingly.

"Fanboys exist so I'll ignore posts from people with ______ avatars".

You are the one who brought this in the first place, lol. But it's okay if you don't want to respond anymore.

Once again you put words in my mouth. Nowhere once did I say or even imply that I'm ignoring posts from Nintendo avatars. I simply pointed out a correlation between those avatars being mainly nintendo defense force.

Your argument against me has no grounds whatsoever, you are putting words in my mouth to keep it going. So no, I don't see your point because you don't have one. Your argument is falsified.

He's just jealous he has no talent or capability to make anything competent for any platform that has anywhere near the quality of a Nintendo title. He can just shrivel back off under his rock into mediocrity.

Ahahahahaha

The Triforce avatar completes it.

Well, Nintendo is owed some scorn over how badly they've botched the Wii U launch. It gets to be a bit much around here, but whatever, that's what GAF is. There is a reason the games industry thinks of GAF the same way most of the country thinks of Urban Detroit.

Agreed. They completely screwed the pooch in that regard. As for the rest of the post, that's true pretty much for every non-Nintendo focused forum on the Internet. For the most part (and forgive my generalizations here), you either like Nintendo, or you revile them. Being a Nintendo fan on a video game forum is an exercise in patience.
 
As a Wii U owner, I'm disturbed by some of the perceived blood lust in this thread. No he shouldn't get fired for being dumb on twitter. Should he have a think about stuff he says, when he's a public figure of the industry? Yes. Fired? Hell no.
 
sephi22 said:
On one hand, I don't agree with the firing. Nothing he said was untrue.

On the other hand, his firing does reinforce the idea that GAF is powerful enough to get people fired.

Yesssss.... more blood for the blood gods

He could just be trying to cover his tracks, but it's too late really.

This is an example of a good post by someone with a nintendo avatar for those in this thread that think I'm singling them out. I agree with this 100%.

So...It's only good when you agree with it? If someone has a different opinion you single them out for being fanboys?

He probably just deleted this himself, thinking he could reverse everything :lol

I mean if there are screenshots of tweets like that - you're basically done and should support your position instead of trying to hide everything

He was being unprofessional, you can't do that when you represent your company.
 
As someone who was here at GAF when the Dreamcast came (and went), the board is sooo close to those crazy days it's not even funny.

All that's missing is some crazy ass perma-meltdowns.

Well ... i would get fired too if i went out in the public, yelled stupid shit not only making myself look dumb but also the company i work for.

That is ... if he is indeed getting fired ... or just trying to hide any personal or business-related information.
 
I still dont see how anyone can say Wii U is a crap console. Is it a weak console compared to PS4? Yes. But it is far from a crap console.

Contextual nuance really shouldn't be a very difficult concept to understand. The kind of conversation I'd have in a bar over drinks with friends isn't the kind of conversation I'd have at the water cooler at work which isn't the kind of conversation I'd engage in publicly when there's a digital record of it. I don't care if the guy gets fired or not, as I really have no dog in this fight. But I would stand by the assertion that the comments are very unprofessional while also agreeing with you that they hardly upset my delicate sensibilities.

This.
 
What an idiot. I mean that's, just something else. Why would risk your job over something so stupid.

If I were his boss I'd be tempted to fire him for his lack of common sense
 
Why can't he just state his opinion? Yeah, he was a little bit rude but I don't think he just hates Nintendo or that EA has an agenda against Nintendo because they don't wanted Origin. (Tinfoil hats?)
