I think it's very frustrating to see people accusing Lorne of being a "Nintendo hater" when he's actually sung Nintendo's praises quite a few times in the past:

When I listened to Lorne talk about this stuff on Kinda Funny all I saw was him just sharing his experience and highlighting something that I'm sure a lot of indie-devs have gone through when working with Nintendo. When he says this sort of thing you can tell it comes from a place of respect for the company and genuinely just wanting to see it improve.

I'm as big a Nintendo fan as the next person, but even I'll admit that they seem to have a lot of problems that really should be addressed.
Quite.

He's also a huge fan of Iwata.

"When he said that, in my opinion, he was immortalized in the creative community. I would work with him in a second. When a man in that type of position, in a world where the golden rule is the rule and that’s what’s expected at public companies, he stood up and said, 'That’s not what we’re about. We’re about building great stuff. We have great people to build great stuff. We’re gonna do that.'"

I hope the backlash fades and doesnt..hinder anything
We're good.
