Default Re: No wonder Nintendo is secretive

Practices like this aren't exclusive to the video game industry unfortunatley. It happens everywhere in business. Since you can't stop it, the only way to combat it is to offer something better. It actually forces companies to make great products, deals, etc. If they don't, they'll go under.

The worst cases are when a company doesn't even change a name that much. Like Microsoft's rumored XPod. I mean, if you're going to rip something, at least try not to make it blatantly obvious. It matters not, iPod will devour XPod.
