:: I was about to say the same thing about | :: I was about to say the same thing about [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/InherentlyFunnyWords "flitch"]. XD Kind of strange how the typo slipped through, since it's glaringly in the article's first sentence. Still, mistakes ''do'' happen...

:: I was about to say the same thing, although I think that the grammar is technically okay if the writer was utilizing British English, since there seems to be some strange rules regarding plurality of some words/entities, where past-tense-related terms like "were/have" can be used for things that normally would be perceived as singular in American English (see [http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/937281-dragon-quest-ix-sentinels-of-the-starry-skies/55535176 this thread] for an example, pertaining to the statement "the enemy '''is/are''' defeated"). My personal opinion is that the statements of the Bulbanews article in question should be "Nintendo was" and "Nintendo has", which seems more proper, but I'll wait to see some other editors' opinions...
