No they don’t, they dont do quality testing at all anymore for games. Which is fairly evident with the amount of garbage on the wii.

That was in the past. Do they still do that with third-party games? Because I don’t think they do. If they do, I’m wrong, but currently, I’m fairly certain they don’t.

furthermore this is what the seal use to say on it “This seal is your assurance that NINTENDO has approved and guaranteed the quality of this product.” that was changed 1989. In 2003 it was changed to offical nintendo seal, they left out the quality part. Meaning as of 2003 nintendo does not to quality testing the games it releases on its systems. So yes the seal of quality’s orignal purpose was to protect consumers against crap games. This is no longer the case.

You are completly right but also wrong. The seal of quality existed for 2 reasons. 1. to inform consumers the game was licensed by nintendo and 2. the assure the quality of the game. It’s called the nintendo seal of QUALITY. However now it’s more of nintendo’s coat of arms, really has no meaning now. I think you should research the history before YOU comment on things.

the seal of quality NEVER was meant for the actual quality of games, just that nintendo knows that these games are on their system legally -.- ppl need to know the facts before commenting on them >.>
