Greenpeace takes a shot at Nintendo for “poor communication standards”

This isn’t the first time that Greenpeace has had an issue with Nintendo. Today, Greenpeace has strongly criticized Nintendo for their “incredibly poor standard of communication.”
“Nintendo are not engaging at all,” said Iza Kruszewska, toxics campaigner for Greenpeace. “I have spoken to Nintendo’s sales people in the UK, and even they admit that Nintendo isn’t communicating enough, not just externally but internally, apparently…We’re in continuous dialogue with all the companies we speak to, apart from Nintendo. I’ve never been able to get an answer from them aside from a couple of marketing people in the UK who have been trying to forward the messages to global headquarters in Japan, but we get no response from Nintendo. The company has an incredibly poor standard of communication regarding this issue.”
And of course, Greenpeace still does not believe Nintendo is environmentally friendly, either. Kruszewska added, “What really struck me was Nintendo’s response when we asked them about this. They said that their products don’t create waste because… people hang onto them! It’s a very inadequate response, and I’m surprised a serious company like Nintendo would even respond that way.”
