Roughly translated, "Leave it to heaven."
A large gaming corporation, that is over 100 years old. In the past highly respected by all gamers, now sometimes ridiculed.
Falsly excused of making "kiddie games" or "kid only games," when the only child like games Nintendo produces are Pokemon and possibly Kirby.
The "kiddie game" rumor started in the early 90s when Sega advertised a commerical stating their version of Mortal Kombat featured blood as opposed to the SNES version. Sega stated, "that we may make games that Ninendo won't." When actually, Acclaim (I believe) didn't decide to add blood until they remade Mortal Kombat for the Sega Genesis.
Sony expanded on this rumor in 1996 to trick a large majority of the public. For someone reason the public believes everything that they hear on tv, instead of doing their own research.

Great game company that makes bright fast-paced game featuring: Mario, Luigi, Fox, Link, and Samus. They invented the game boy, and after that other gaem companies copied them (Sega, NeoGeo, other assorted japanse companies) but failed. the game boy is still being made today. Alos made pokemon games, but they made up for it.

a cool gaming company. Everyone loves all the fanboy shit games with blood and violence and "wicked" graphics, but really nintendo is a better gaming company. They feature really cool systems and are really creative in designing games-who woulda thought of super mario bros. and all those coool little guys in a wierd world called nintendoland? I mean, c'mon its cool!

Kick ass videogame company. Saved the industry in the 1980s, went downhill since, yet still are more profitable than any other videogame company (Yes, they make more $ than Sony does, because they actually make their own games. Today many jerkoffs knock Nintendo citing that their games are "kiddy" These are the same kinds of idiots that buy the Playboy videogame and think they're cool and mature because they only play games with blood and guts. A videogame is good if it is fun, and Nintendo doesn't need to rely on shock value, a la GTA, to make good games.

Nintendoitis (noun) This condition usually occurs after you've played a console game too long. But was prominent with the original Nintendo Entertainment System back in 1985 with the original box controller. After many long hours of gameplay be it Zelda, Mario or Contra or whatever game you were playing, you would begin to feel pain in your thumbs and it would work its way up throughout your hand. But you usually wouldn't stop playing because you wanted to beat the game. But this condition can still occur with just about any game console controller.
Sam: Yo man I'm going to beat this PS3 game.
Tony: Ok I'll go watch a movie.
*three or four hours pass by Tony walks back into the room seeing Sam still at it.*
Tony: So how much further do you have to go in the game?
Sam: I'm almost finished but I'm developing a bad case of Nintendoitis.
