No, fuck it I'll tell you. It's that all three of them pretend to be your friend. All three of them try and suck you in with their accessibility, colorful characters, and iconic designs. However, this is simply just to get you to pay for whatever the hell they put out. All three of them have become corporate husks of what they used to be. The fact that they used to have SOUL in their products is enough to sell people on whatever they are doing now. Really, though, they couldn't care less about that. Which is okay, they're businesses after all. However, this shouldn't distract you from the fact that:
>Nintendo has taken down numerous fan projects and attempted to shut down Super Smash Bros. Melee, a game with some of Nintendo's most passionate fans who built the game's community from the ground up, from being streamed at Evo 2013 so that they could promote the soulless smash 4
>Disney has sued a family for having one of their characters be in their kid's gravestone
>Apple has basically mocked their consumers by selling a stand for $1000
And this is all okay, they're entitled to protecting their properties. However, just know that these three companies aren't your friends, they don't give a shit about you.

Also let's not forget that all three of these companies lost a key figure in what made them so great.
>Apple lost Jobs
>Nintendo lost Iwata
>Disney lost Walt
Sure, Steve Jobs was an asshole who arguably drove Apple to the ground. Sure, Iwata's vision for Nintendo wasn't the best, especially when it came to consoles. And yeah, Walt Disney wasn't perfect by any means, but they all represented a period in time when the companies they ran actually gave somewhat of a shit about their consumers.

the truth is that as you've gotten older you're more adept at noticing that these smiling faces have the goal of getting your money. at a younger age, it's easier to believe in the idea that the passion these people exude is wholly genuine and not at all self interested in profit. and to some extent, it still is genuine. some of the people who work at these companies you've laid out are hugely passionate about their work, but it is perhaps slightly true that as of late that the culture is more and more aware that profit is the #1 goal.

I hate to tell you this user, but they never had soul. They were always corporate machines who only cared about taking your money. All that changed was you. You got old enough to see the world for how it really is.

They drive in their lanes better than anyone else in their respective markets.

How does it make you feel to know that corporations have essentially replaced religion and have people defending them no matter how shitty it is?
Dominic Jones
Apple really throws me off. Unlike Disney and Nintendo, they have never made anything close to a quality product.
John Gonzalez
>Walt Disney wasn't perfect by any means
I know what you are referring to and it was a lie created by his competitors to try and take him down.
Leo Wood
Disney's also BTFO Sony by outselling all their movies. Sony's not even in the top 20 lol
Tyler Jenkins
Not really corporations but more political ideologies in general have replaced religion

O ME DE TOU
You finally cracked the secret, you are a wise man, you are THE man, you have done the impossible, you have made the correct choice.
You finally realized how capitalism works, companies just want your money. Oh you wise young man, you have to much to live for.

>user wakes up to capitalism and overreacts
Same as every company, that's just how this shit works.
Jackson Nguyen
I think its more of the fact that people are so brainwashed by them. Before there was an understanding that the company has a product, you want a product and you go buy it. Maybe you might even become loyal to them but when they screw up you would acknowledge that they did and won't buy their shitty new product. Now we have people defending corporations tooth and nail when 15 years ago some of those same people tell you not to trust them.

Every company does this. It's called "marketing," genius.
