"let me remind you how Sega handled a Sonic game by hiring its creator."

Don't forget Valve helping the team behind the fan-remake Black Mesa earn money by monetizing their work. It was a win-win situation for both the company and the team. What pisses me off specifically, is that they shut down a fan-remake of a game that Nintendo itself hasn't bothered to revisit in a meaningful way for 25 years. They remade the Famicom/NES game in 2004, how long would we have waited for the company to kick its ass into gear for a remake of a 1991 game?
