I may be ignorant af here but…I think culturally, they aren’t nearly as cynical as we are about the corporate hellscape, at least not publicly.

The attitude seems to be that companies, especially Nintendo, are a home-country brand, seen as successful and good at business, and therefore should be respected for it.

This is the likely the same attitude that leads to their abysmal work culture that prizes literally working yourself to death, or at least as close to it as you can.

I think the death grip is loosening though, primarily driven by younger generations seeing through the bullshit.
