And their refusal to listen to what the fans actually want.

It has worked well for them, Apple, etc. Customers are absolutely happy to support companies that provide a consistent experience.

Normally I don't like that, but Nintendo does a fantastic job on quality control, so I'm happy to support them in a world where tech companies (esp gaming companies) use their customers as QA. I hate their legal department, refusal to sell on other platforms, and innovate with the Pokémon IP, but if they have something I'm interested in, I'm going to pick it up because I know they'll deliver.

If I could make my dream game company, it would certainly include Nintendo's QA department, and certainly not their legal team.
