David Jaffe Suggests Nintendo Should Sell To Disney

David Jaffe has an interesting suggestion to Nintendo - sell the company to Disney. According to him, though his words may sound harsh, it should be taken as if he’s blasting Nintendo (he just did!).

I say this with love as a fan of Nintendo. But if I was Nintendo, I’d be sitting my a** down trying to figure out how to sell my company to Walt Disney, because if you look at sort of what they have done sort of the reverence they’ve had towards Marvel, if you look at what seems to be happening with Star Wars and the Lucas brand they’ve acquired, they clearly understand marketing, they clearly understand their audience. To imagine going to a Disney Land park and having an entire land – like not just like Tomorrow Land but others like Nintendo Land – and sort of integrating that into that world, doing more with those brands. 

Furthermore, he mentioned that the company needs new blood, a younger staff, and all that. Perhaps he was not aware that stocks of Nintendo went down because of the unsourced news that Miyamoto is about to retire. Perhaps he was not aware, that he spent his career making Twisted Metal games.
