I could never work for a big corporation. Ripping people off isn't one of my strong points.

Well if you wanna get into the gaming business chances are you'll end up working as an underling for EA or something. Hopefully from there you can break free and start your own thing. But it ain't easy or cheap. I figure I'll have to start my life by designing annoying internet ads, work my way up to little flash games at AOL, then work up to an actual company. It's a long road. Too bad I was born so late, it was easier to get in the bizz before.

That's exactly what Kyle Gabler and Ron Carmel did (the 2 guys who created the indie game company 2D Boy, they created World of Goo and look at the review's this game is getting!). Just proof that it is possible to do that. |

And I could publish my games under nintendo when I make my own company so I could contribute more to this site.
And if I DO get into the gaming biz I'll just go ask nintendo for stuffs.

Ok, now I'm starting to question whether or not your actually serious. Dude, in reality, it is not easy at all. Have you realized that it would take experience, HUGE amount of luck, and half your life to get to such a status? The few people out of the billions in the world population that actually work for developing Nintendo games are both experienced and lucky, and it took hard work just to get enrolled for the higher education needed to learn such a profession. The closest any of us could get is sweeping the halls of Nintendo's offices.  |

Actually getting into the gaming industry isn't that bad from what I hear once you've got a CS degree or and a few credits for Programming or Art or something relevant. Psychology Degrees also help. |

He didn't mean the gaming biz in general, he meant actually working for Nintendo themselves which is next to impossible. That's why I said EA. They're the devil's minions, but atleast they hire.

To get any answers from Nintendo would mean that he would have to work at Nintendo in Japan (do you really think anyone at NOA know about who created Wario?) so you may also have to learn Japanese to work there. |

To get any answers from Nintendo would mean that he would have to work at Nintendo in Japan (do you really think anyone at NOA know about who created Wario?) so you may also have to learn Japanese to work there. If you just want to know who created Wario, maybe you could get an answer by writing a mail to Nintendo Japan. The form is here: secure.nintendo.co.jp/n10/support/index.htmlHowever, the site tells that they won't answer mails in foreign language. And the form, which is in Japanese and requieres your address, including the Japanese prefecture, and phone number, is clearly specific to inhabitants of Japan. |

Would you people start talking about what I need to do that? Yeah, you know when TV Eye told you that your jokes aren't funny, and you should learn to use smileys sometime? Well he wasn't kidding. The fact you posted more details about your "non-serious daydream" makes it even less likely that you were actually joking. |

I wasn't joking that much either, except for that post. All I'm saying is that I might be part of the gaming industry in the future.
