I think a lot of what comes out of Japan is better than the West because they haven’t given up their idea of the company man.
Like it or not, having to switch jobs every few years is going to impact your performance.

Bullshit like this is why our industry is a mess, Nintendo may be greedy fucks but their code is good because the same dudes have been working there since the fucken 80s.

at least the west is starting to acknowledge the torturous monotony of doing the same job for decades.
Lots of people prefer the comfort of familiarity.

I mean, if you want to emulate a corporate ethos, I don’t think Japan should be the benchmark, either…

Their crunch culture is def bad (they’re going to kill Sakurai one day), but there is quite a few things they do right. They don’t lay people off and their executives take accountability. Iwata took a significant pay cut when the Wii U flopped.

They can’t lay people off, so they just put them in a room with no work to do until they get so bored that they quit. It’s the same thing but different.

I’ll take my chances with the boredom room.

Why would I quit my dream job? Getting paid so sit doing nothing is my life long goal.
