I don't see what's wrong with what she said. It's more civil than some of the shit that flies on these boards.
As much as am fan of the system and the company, Nintendo has failed to make the system appeal to an older crowd. Whether or not it's their fault, the system is seeing support slowly vanish while Nintendo still heavily supports the system with the usually suspects. No one should be shocked when a Michelle Rodriguez says the GC is for kids or the Washington Post presumes that the system is virtually obselete.

Like someone said, give it up. You dont work for them. She probably got closer to the industry that you will ever be. Her opinion didnt sound anything different than whats being posted on this same forum every day. I dont know whats so upsetting about her opinion.
If reading 'OMG NINTENDO IS TEH KIDDAAAAY!!" still pisses you off that much; close IE, disconnect from the internet, shutdown the pc, and go play outside

Thanks to this thread I now know a lot about Michelle Rodriguez.

"I don't want people to be like, 'She's hot-looking', you know? I want them to listen to me for what I am saying. And I think the best way to do that is to sniff my armpits, and like, sit and burp every now and then."

Ha ha awesome.

I can't believe comments from some b-list celebrity could generate so many responses...
I totally disagree about the stories of many games being cliche, a lot of them may contain cliche elements but they're far fart better than the crap we see in Hollywood.
I don't wanna see Paul WS. Anderson write his version of Halo please, leave that to Hollywood and shitty game to film adaptations.

I'm a big Nintendo fan and even I find a majority of posts in this thread sad and pathetic. I guess women aren't entitled to their opinions yet? And to those who used the "C" word, it's not very classy (although it can be funny when in reference to a dude).

Don't take it personally. Every ambitious person has an angle. A way to act and come across to get noticed. This is hers. And its true being diplomatic does make for boring interviews.
You can tell shes doing a job. I mean its an insult to take her literally. Nobody in this world actually thinks every single game on Cube is for kids apart from 1.

The angle of every poster in this thread is predictable. I'm not going to break the streak.
Nintendo should use the "for kids" quote in print ads for GC, even RE4, alongside Rodriguez's name mentioning Sony and Microsoft pay her money. It'd hopefully make consumers wonder who and what really is "mature" far more than the rather unhinged "who are you?" campaign has.

So, why does anyone care what some actress says in an interview? She doesn't like very many GC games -- I can live with that, and I'm a somewhat rabid Nintendo zealot. We all know that Nintendo doesn't name the brand "status" that it used to have, even if many of us think it's because the majority of the gaming public are <insert your favorite deragatory word here>. While I disagree with Miss Rodriguez, I really don't feel inspired to launch inflammatory tirades against her acting abilities or physical features.

Why would her act need to praise the PS2? Her act is to do with her laid back i don't give a fuck attitude. Praising PS2 wouldn't gel with that, its irrelevant.
She probably does think Cube is for kids more than anything but shes being too extreme to know shes not entirely serious. And the extremity of it is what people shouldn't take so personally.

FUCK no, this is gaming-age, if this was the case, I wouldn't bother coming back here.
I can understand the light-heartedness in her answers, but she said that game developers/writers are all untalented and never get laid and thinks that a "female" writter (ie her) would do a much better job.
All I hear is the little cries of attention of an untalented 12 year old actress no one cares about. I mean, I didn't know who she was before this thread and now I know, thanks to her "shocking" comments she garnered attention on this board.
"They should get laid more"
Hey princess, maybe it's cause 'getting laid' for guys in general isn't as easy as spreading your legs. You know, the way you got those parts in movies.

This thread is hilarious :lol
In other news, Ashley Olsen called the GameCube "The prettiest purple lunch-box I ever sawd."

My aunt & uncle run a Mom & Pop store, "The Gamecube Hut", and sold 80k WiiU within minutes of opening.
My brother is writing her a letter. In it he willl implore her to reconsider her attitudes towards GameCube. He will make it perfectly clear that such vitriol is hurtful to the millions of young men and women who make Nintendo GameCube a part of their daily lives. GameCube people derserve respect for the choices they make in videogames.
I'll keep you guys informed of what comes out of it.

This thread is so fucking pathetic. Honestly. When former secretary of health Tommy Thompson made a comment that POTENTIALLY DANGERED AMERICA, its corresponding thread only had like 15 posts. Now when a B-list celebrity takes a jab at the Gamecube we have a 4-page thread!?

LOL at the Nintendo fans demeaning her. She has a strong opinion and it is not yours. In fact she is sort of correct on developers, because of the way many of them portray women in games. She's rather mad at many developers who do that. Look at Leisure Suit Larry or the plethora of games that do demeaning things to women. That's a very true statement in many senses. Females prefer heroine roles, like in Tomb Raider or Final Fantasy X-2. However, developers for the vast majority are males. Most videogame offices have only one bathroom. Females make up single-digit percentages of behind-the-scene gamemakers, so their influences over game design is small. She voices her frustration with that.
On the Nintendo-dismissing thing, she voices the same opinion most of GAME-DOM has. I do not know why you all are bagging on her for voicing how many gamers, hardcore or not, feel. Yuji Naka says the same things. You do not discredit him, yet his saying that damages Nintendo's relation with the older crowd, and his making games designed for younger ones on Gmecube as well, drawing in more games designed for young audiences. She makes some comments, which have little real effect on the game world, and you all cast her aside as a bad actor, awful movies, saying she's ugly, and all these blasphemous, STUPID things. What she says does NOT take away from her as a person. You all are just bitches having little bitch fits.
God, I even see people going as far as not only to discredit her, but ALL OF HOLLYWOOD. WTF is that?
She actually does something. She's a great actress. That's a hell of a lot more than crying about an anti-Nintendo comment on a message board. Pussies.

No, but they depict empowered females in a non-cutesy, non-juvenile manner. They don't depict small, diminuitive human beings with an overload of pink, white and blonde. Females enjoy Dead or Alive as well for many of the same reasons.lockii said:
The women aren't very realistic in figure and looks, and are usually flaw-less and well kept, and young, but they're very much the same image females see in movies. Females also aren't as concerned about looking at other women in that way. Men don't look at other men in games and go "Oh his body's TIGHT!" or "He's good looking" (And are straight" but women make similar comments about other females.
If I wanted to pick out games in which genders were equal, I'd be at a loss, because I can't think of many.
