He was the head of NOA when the OG NES was getting started. He was responsible for Super Mario Bros 2 not being the shitty Japanese version and instead being the superior Doki Doki panic.

>I need money, buy my stupid crap
yawn
Hey you already know he's gonna get a house out of all this shit.
don't you mean Howard Phillips? he always wore bowties and was NOA's "product guy." Howard Lincoln is an ancient-ass 80 year old boomer (older than Joe Biden in fact) who probably doesn't even use SM.
Same thing.
> ancient-ass 80 year old boomer (older than Joe Biden in fact)
boomers aren't in their 80s yet
He doesn't even know what boomer refers to. He just thinks it's a colloquialism for people who are zoombrains
Aren't**
He's a soolenter
>boomers aren't in their 80s yet
Anyone over the age of 35 is a boomer, moron.
You hear that on the tiktik, tyke?
>Howard Lincoln
Reminder this old coot tried to sway Congress into banning used/rental physical games from stores as Daddy Yamauchi commanded him to.
Not OP anyways
Todd Howard's competitor? Now things are getting interesting
Howard Phillips surfaced on social media a few years back and was sharing lots of stories and cool stuff from his days at Nintendo. I think he started as one of the first employees in their first US warehouse and worked his way up to being basically the face of the company in the US...then left for Lucasarts and pretty much did nothing of note.
someone should ask him why Euro kids could play Devil World but we couldn't
he probably thought it was a shit game (and was right). industry was much better off without the yes men pulling the strings.
NOA was run by reddit atheists who didn't want so much as a cross to be depicted in a video game.
>t. brainrot
mentally moronic
No it was they were afraid (rightfully so) that the thin skinned christians would be angry if anything that offended their made up fairy tale was in a game
hey wait, this is a video game not a religion board
>You don't get to have video games related religious conversations, but this anon does because he's making fun of Christianity.
You realize all the mods and jannies are Marxists, right?
Yeah, im sure this guy here is a based and redpilled Catholic bro. Totally.
NoA was ran by the same prudent chimpanzees who didn't want to localize the game starring a Christian little girl as the protagonist's girlfriend just because it features one.
Literal underage zoomer
He decided to bring over Faxanadu so that makes up for it.
A game called "Devil World" in the 80s might have gotten nintendo boycotted in large parts of the US.
not the same guy. howard philips is actually fine. just a guy who happened to me in the right place at the right time.
seems like a lame thing, are nintendo powers worth a lot? i have a whole bunch of 'em
wasn't he the moron who died on the first level of smb2 so they had to get doki doki so his moronic ass could play a game?
>He was responsible for Super Mario Bros 2 not being the shitty Japanese version and instead being the superior Doki Doki panic.
Howard claims it was his idea, meanwhile in Japan they claim it was Miyamoto's idea.
Interviews are not facts.
>meanwhile in Japan they claim it was Miyamoto's idea
yeah im sure they would have proudly credited a gaijin for a good business move
Maybe it was a group effort? They probably had to negotiate how they were going forward.
>graded
>Heritage Auctions
Scam alert.
You're clearly a zoomer, because all you'd have to say is that he's of "Howard and Nester" fame and every 40 year old would know exactly who you meant.
who gives a frick? kys
Howard Phillips is the guy responsible for any/all of Nintendo's "BAD" translations. /vr/ probably hates this fgt.
Also he cancelled the US localization of Mother. Frick that guy.
He did a good enough job of marketing the nes that we did get some weird niche shit. Better than sega letting fricking tonka market their shit
Wait, Tonka? Can you elaborate on that?
Yeah sega let tonka do the master system distribution in north america, i shit you not
