I feel like that absolves the 'insiders'/leakers too much. Part of the deal with this game is that the leakers get clout and fame if they're right and if they're wrong or just lying then they get the boot or whatever. Of course plans change but there's plans change and just completely whiffing. Somehow Nintendo insiders in particular are always whiffing.How are we to know someone is simply spreading false information intentionally as opposed to just having a bad source or having outdated information or reporting on something that has simply changed? Does that distinction even matter? At the end of the day if people here want to play with "insiders" (and I think most do, this place and the people in it fucking beg for any scrap or morsel of information they can get) then you have to take the good with the bad. If you want to have a blanket "no insders/no teasing" allowed on this site, sure go for it, but I don't think that's what people actually want, at least not outside of the weird anger/backlash to this announcement. People will be angry but in 2 weeks when someone teases something they'll go back to eating it right up because frankly that's what gamers want. They want to be in the know. They want a peek into what is generally a very secretive industry. So if you are going to do that, you take the good with the bad.
