There's a universe in where Kanye, who is currently President of the United States, collaborated with Nintendo on a videogame.
holy shitThere's a universe in where Kanye, who is currently President of the United States, collaborated with Nintendo on a videogame.
Is that better or worse then the timeline where the guy from Home Alone 2 and The Apprentice is president?There's a universe in where Kanye, who is currently President of the United States, collaborated with Nintendo on a videogame.
Did that game based on Only One ever come out?
the visuals were cool
The game was in development for a year + but everybody involved moved on.
dat first reply
I can imagine him making some dope beats for a Nintendo game.
...I'm gonna get banned for saying that, aren't I?
But... they didn't? As in, they didn't almost do it. The quote makes it clear it was rejected from the get-go lol.Reggie reveals Nintendo almost collaborated with Kanye West for a new title game.
We had so many different projects at Nintendo going on, the possibility of doing something with Kanye just wasn't there, and so I had to find a way to politely decline this opportunity to work with him. I told him, 'Kanye, you don't want to work with us because we're tough, we're hard. All we do is push for the very best content. We would not be the type of partner you would want to work with.' And he looks at me and says, 'Reggie, you're exactly the type of partner I want because of that reason!' It's like, 'Oh my gosh.'"
Reggie like this mother ain't ever gonna leave me alone lolBut... they didn't? As in, they didn't almost do it. The quote makes it clear it was rejected from the get-go lol.
Yeah but it wasn't really bright coming from Reggie, because Kanye has been known for his perfectionism for years lol. It was the best way for Reggie to motivate Kanye even more, rather than make him move on instantly from that idea.My favorite part of this is Reggie trying to convince Kanye that he actually doesn't want to team up because they focus too much on perfection in their games.
If it was 2005-2013 Kanye then I would have gladly welcomed the collaboration.
