sharing his riches with those that deserve it the most. I think you mean the ones who need it the most since the ones who deserve it are the ones who' ve worked their asses for it Great,btw i heard Nintendo sits on around 15 billion dollars... It' s actually 7 not 15 - you keep posting 15 all over so this time I thought I' ll let you know (it' s still a lot - enough to make at least 2 lame systems and survive to launch the third) Nintendo - I love those guys

" Rumours that Yamauchi donated the cash for the constuction of a new cryogenic wing could not be confirmed." What' s a cryogenic wing? It sounds like a place where you... freeze stuff. You think he wants to freeze himself after death so that he can get revived one day? Crazy guy but you got to love him .

That' s what Walt Disney tried to do isn' t it? Maybe someday it will be made successful? I think you mean the ones who need it the most Tomato/ tomoto .

ORIGINAL: ]GaNgStA[ I think you mean the ones who need it the most since the ones who deserve it are the ones who' ve worked their asses for it He donated the money to a hospital. Anyone can get sick, even those who work hard. Everyone deserves medical care so I think the money was donated to those who deserve it the most. Of course, I' d prefered if the money was donated to Kikizo, or even better, me.

I don' t think that sick people deserve $$ but they sure need it. It depends on a man I guess. For instance, if you have dying Ken Kutaragi and dying Hideo Kojima, you surely wouldn' t pay for Kutaragis treatment :) Tomato/ tomoto. What the hell is this? :)

What Yamauchi should do is return to his old business of running " Love Motels" . I still find it humorous that a company with a clean, friendly image like Nintendo had such a dirty old man running the show for a while

Yamauchi is probably the one who came up with the " TOUCHING IS GOOD" advertising slogan for the DS

Hmmm Rev' s controller has a funny shape ..I think it' s vibrations are not just a feature - they want to appeal to female gamers right?

I don' t care what you guys say Playstation prez. Ken Kutagari is still the craziest of the bunch. My favorite quote of his is when he said something like: " Microsoft is aiming for the moon ,Sony is aiming for the sun." lmao!
