Greenpeace sez… Nintendo, Microsoft poisoning water supply, killing whales and making babies cry.

by JW

Greenpeace (yes, Greenpeace) has released their latest rankings of top electronics companies. Nintendo brings up the rear of this list of 18 electronics manufacturers, with a mind boggling 0 out of 10 score. 0 out of 10? That’s got to be worse than simply not trying to go green. Nintendo must actively be trying to kill people. Maybe someone caught Shigeru Miyamoto pouring arsenic in the water supply, or something.

Microsoft was marked down on Greenpeace’s list for only pledging to eliminate toxins until 2011, and for not having any sort of voluntary takeback program.

Sony Ericsson and Samsung topped the list, each scoring a 7.7 out of 10.

    Nintendo and I agree on two things: Games need to be more fun, and the Earth needs destroying.
