And it's not nitpicking. It's called facts, there is a difference.
Some are facts, many aren't. And many of the points you raise are down to the Nintendo corporate structure...they're an old and rigid Japanese company run by a board of quite old men. That accounts for why they want that extreme level of control demonstrated in some of your other points....Nintendo will not relinquish control. In the past this has ensured quality control and that's what has worked for them. It may not fit into a more modern user friendly way of life and social media but it is what it is.
Whilst I agree with the point you raise about price fixing, that was 15 years ago...things have changed. Same thing goes for the PAL/NTSC display standard...this was universal and not just Nintendo. They don't have contempt for regions outside the US/JP regions, more disinterest and that's actually their right as a company. If they don't want our money more power to them.
