centipede keeps trying to get involved. But nobody cares! He's way down in the polls. Last week he was at 5%. Today it's more like 2. And that's being generous. It's really more like 1%. But the dishonest media never reports it. It's always "Oh, Dan E. said this or that." Give me a break. My polls are rising all the time. It's true, folks. We are getting the biggest polls, the biggest rallies. The only way that centipede even gets any attention is when he mentions my name! Has anyone noticed that? Maybe I should just ignore him. What do you all think? But we're going to win. We're going to win big. And quite frankly, there's nothing centipede can do about it.

Least favorite (BY FAR): Shigeru Miyamoto. He destroyed many of my favorite franchises of all time (Zelda, Paper Mario, Super Mario, Star Fox, Smash Bros.) and I fucking despise him for that. He really is the biggest retard of the modern video game industry. A once great director, but now just a corporate cock-sucking hack.
To be honest, though, I'm not that familiar with video game developers, despite the amount of time I've spent playing video games throughout my life. But I can say for sure that the art directors of Ocarina of Time, Fire Emblem Binding Blade-Radiant Dawn, Morrowind, & Soul Caliber 2 all get a big thumbs up from me. From a programing perspective, I have to admire Valve for their incredible work on the Half Life series. And Sakurai deserves a 7-foot tall platinum trophy for his EXTRAORDINARY directing job on Melee, even though his most recent SSB games have been lame and casualized (but that isn't his fault, its the producers).

Time to turn that frown upside down, pal. Focus on the good and just let the bad go.

I'll tell you what, I've been trying very hard. I've asked stratogustav to ban you time and again, but he just refuses to do it. Maybe it's because you amuse him, I don't know. But we'll get there Balder. Don't worry about me, OK? We'll get there eventually.

To be fair to Shiggy, I don't think he has been directing most of these series for a long time. The modern Zeldas, counting from Twilight Princess onwards, are all in the hands of Eiji Aonuma, and I think no Star Fox game was ever internally developed by Nintendo: the first one was made by Argonaut, 64 and Adventures by Rare, Assault by Namco, Command by Q-Games and Zero by Platinum. In some Paper Mario games, he only appears as supervisor. I don't know his situation in the main Mario series. I guess it must the one in which he has most involvement - but then, the main Mario series is consistently high-reviewed.

Cervantes Lol not to be rude but Rare did not make Star Fox 64. In terms of Zelda, he allowed the art directors to toon up the series with Wind Waker, and well as casualize the gameplay with the release of said game. I realize that Aonuma ultimately has had more of an effect on the post OoT Zelda games than Miyamoto did, but still, Miyamoto is the guy who gave us Ocarina of Time, which was one of the greatest achievements in Nintendo gaming ever, and the first Zelda game to have serious art direction. The series literally belongs to him. As for Paper Mario, it has become infamously known on the web that he (Miyamoto) did not allow Sticker Star director (and Paper Mario creator) Naohiko Aoyama to implement the combat system from the first two games in the series (which are the most highly regarded by fans), and instead insisted that he go with a sticker-centric combat system which was the text-book definition of "half-baked" and "gimmicky". As a result a lot of longtime PM fans got really pissed off by Sticker Star and many Nintendo gamers consider it to be the worst game Nintendo has ever developed, which is a hell of a distinction. Personally, I think that title goes to Super Paper Mario, but Sticker Star is nonetheless very disappointing, especially considering the art director of the first Paper Mario, Naohiko Aoyama, was in the directing chair for Sticker Star, and if anyone understands what a good Paper Mario game should play like (and look like), it's him. Now I realize my first post was vulgar and rage-filled, but I really can't stress how much I hate Miyamoto. He is literally the reason I lost interest in Nintendo gaming. He's too busy constantly attempting to appease the greedy stock holders of Nintendo these days to even bother listening to any criticism that has been raised about his recent actions.

It seems I associate N64 games so much with Rare (what with 007, Perfect Dark, Conker, Banjo, DK64 etc.) that I confused myself! Yep, SF64 seems to be developed by Nintendo themselves - maybe that's why this is a fan favourite? I'm just guessing, I don't know much about the series.

Sometimes people don't believe it, because I'm just so real. But I'm real. Really real.
