Have you ever written a letter to a gaming/software company?

Have you ever written a letter to a gaming/software company?

Post by AznKhmerBoi »

EX:

After the release of Tekken 6 i was very dissapointed with the dumb down easy to do juggle combos that was introduced. Thus my frustrations prompted me not to play 6 and return back to 5dr.

Months later i wrote Namco complaining about this issue and to my suprise they actually replied back.

I once wrote a letter to Nintendo in the early 90's. Not only did they send me photocopied manuals of some NES games, but they also sent me a 'game catalog' of every US game available at the time for NES, SNES, and GB. I also got a letter from them, (though I forget of-hand who signed it.)

I actually still have them, and am contemplating scanning them, if there's interest...

Aside from filling out online survey's for Club Nintendo i've just made a couple phone calls when I got stuck in Secret of Evermore and a few years later for Tales of Destiny, in hindsight getting freebies via mail back then could have meant some cool rare stuff now...

Used to write skateboard companies a lot during the stone age (before the internet took over) and get free stickers and stuff. Do kids today even know what SASE means?

I think I did write a game company once, but I forgot which company and why.

Never wrote a letter to a company I don't think, but I did write an email to Konjak (the guy who developed Noitu Love 2) asking him about a few MMF2 tricks he did.

He responded very quickly and was all around a nice guy.

I have had online correspondence with a few indie developers, but not a big gaming company.

and what did they say? I'm imagining it was garbled nonsense if it was written in English.

Nope. Last time I contacted a gaming company was for Xbox Live support. Good service so far, waiting for MS to restore the account. Some unknown prick stole my gamertag in that recent FIFA debacle. :shock:
