What if Nintendo was a political party? How would our world look like?
Nintendo was an important and strong company, but as Sony and Microsoft were coming out with better and better graphics, Nintendo was falling behind. They couldn’t compete and seemed to be the losers in this technological battle.

But Nintendo refused to just sink into oblivion, instead, they decided to change their politics. While Sony and Microsoft were trying to appeal to a small group of gamers, Nintendo took a risk and decided to bring video games back to everyone. The Wii console was not just about including everyone, the whole family, but also about body interactivity. Anyone could play and they could play with their body. Which turned out to be a lot more fun than just sitting on a couch with a console. So while PlayStation and Xbox were based on exclusion, Nintendo’s Wii is based on inclusion. No niche, everyone is a target!
And it worked out well for Nintendo, both for their recognition, reputation, and their bank account.

Now, what does it have to do with politics? Well, just like Sony and Xbox, our politics are mostly based on exclusion as well. Politicians are trying to appeal to one group of people while trashing their opponents. They are not trying to include everyone, but rather make groups dislike each other even more. As long as they get their votes, they are happy. Nintendo political party would be more than that. You wouldn’t have to choose which group you want to belong to, you could be whoever you would want to be. Just like politics used to be here to address and solve everyone’s problems, Nintendo would be here to listen to both sides. Left and right, North or South.
