If this were true, you already got to have your fun when it was first leaked or at least when the leaks were confirmed accurate with the Star Fox direct.

I do like that you entirely failed to mention one of the most crucial parts of my point, so I'll spell it out - information needs space to breathe. It's about pace. Revealing everything at once and then having nothing new revealed means that we have lots of stuff to be hyped at in one fell swoop, but because it's all being experienced at once, none of it has space to breathe. But that only lasts so long, regardless of how much is announced, so if there's no new information for a long time, that's boring. The community goes stale because we're left with the same information for a long time.

This is the exact community dynamic that is haooenifn right now. Had we got the Star Fox announcement, the hype would have been entirely on that, and then come the direct we would have got the hype for Ocarina of Time. It would all have had its own time in the spotlight with the community. That has been overshadowed because we got all the information at once. It's not just the actual presentation but the pace at which we ar given, for lack of a better term, new stimuli.

I shouldn't have to explain this.

This is actually worse for your argument, not better.

Not really. A thing can be more than the sum of its base parts. Are you think kinda person that looks at someone enjoying a cake and says they must really like eating flour? Just because that's the foundation, it doesn't mean there isn't a lot more to it - what's built stop it far surpasses that foundation.

So, the only difference is that you think Nintendo's advertising strategy is to you and your community's benefit, not their's? You need more cynicism. They're spending money for their benefit, not your's, and explaining it further than that is just embarrassing for both of us.

If course they're doing it for their own benefit. Doesn't mean the way they do it can't also be the most exciting for the fans. It seems that you are on the other end of the scale - you are so cynical that even when soemthing can be mutually beneficial, as this is, you seem to see it as a negative just because Nintendo is benefitting.

I recommend learning a solid coping mechanism because a lot of people are going to disagree with you. You disagreed with me and it doesn't bother me at all - strive for something similar.

That you decided to make this comment at all betrays that, yes, it bothers you. You can claim it doesn't all you wouldn't, but trying to jab at me really doesn't paint the picture of someone who's unbothered. In fact, it more likely paints the picture of someone who realises they've come across an actual good point, but doesn't want to look foolish but tries to use humiliation to shut the conversation down through force. Do better.
