NOA "Disappointed" By E3 Showing -
08-20-08
We can all agree that Nintendo's E3 conference this year was a joke. Despite representatives claiming a strong belief in hardcore gaming, they really made us sad when Miyamoto's "masterpiece" was a mod that turned your Wii into a kindergarten marching band.
According to...

Ahem.
Yahoo Appoints Frito-Lay's Dunaway CMO | Software Services & Applications (301) from AllBusiness.com
She, in fact, DID work at Frito Lay and the size of her body has nothing to do with it. What does the size of her body have to do with her credentials? Find other ways to prove your point instead of bashing the size of a woman. I'm really, really disappointed and ticked off as a woman. I think you need to apologize.
Also, since people seem to love wikipedia so much, it even says there that she work at Frito Lay for over 10 years. ( Cammie Dunaway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
Just because people don't like her, doesn't mean you have to perpetuate that idea by stooping that low to this.
I'm done. I may just leave this site today because I don't want to belong to something that enforces womanizing stereotypes to younger generations. We have enough off that already.
:confused: |
I have to agree with Amanda here... I'm a guy but that doesn't mean that sexism doesn't offend me. I'm not gay but homophobia offends me, I'm a minority but if I were white racism would offend me. So like Amanda said, you need to apologize for stereotyping women or gtfo out of this site, we don't need people like that in this site.  |

Amanda here has a point. Let's just stick to the facts and leave half-witted comments else where. I expect these kind of comments from the junior members, not a member of the fc news staff. Please edit and apologize.
Moving back on topic: I think it's unfair that Cammie seems to be taking allot of heat for Nintendo's FUBAR. Nintendo came up with shovel ware crap, and all she did was go on stage and try to sell it. Which so happens to be her job. Can't blame her for trying to sell peanut butter to someone who are looking for water. At least give her, and the rest of the crew, credit for giving it the ole' college try. It was more then I would of done. |

Re: NOA "Disappointed" By E3 Showing
I think Nintendo get such a hard time cos they MAKE their own games, whereas Sony and Microsoft don't really. But yes it is time that some "hardcore" (god I hate that term) games were made by third parties. But we do have games like Mad World to look forward to. |

Well the truth is that those weren't half-witted comments, they were dim-witted comments. As much as I'm disappointed at Nintendo lack of care for hardcore games and gamers, that gives us no reason to send out personal attacks. Azurill, coming from a guy, you should be ashamed of yourself. |

Get over it. This is the internet. It's inevitable you'll find degrading, stereotypical comments. Don't let it bother you so much. |
