Phillips

"I have yet to see a reason for how Philips's business model is the least bit relevant"

Quite simply this- the success of the CDI was based squarely on the titles that were on it. These titles were of course instrinsically linked with Nintendo's own franchises, but Nintendo foolishly relaxed their standards. This lack of typical Nintendo standard franchise controls allowed lazy developers to take shortcuts with these games. They were (as prior noted) terrible, which caused Phillips to lose an immense amount of the already shaky consumer confidence and finally to become little more than a footnote in history. If Nintendo had been allowed to exersize the same restraints with Phillips as they did with other licensees, the company just might have been successful with the CDI.

And it's spacing, not spelling. :)
