    I dunno if you all agree with me, but some companies just hold a soft spot in my heart where I'm FORCED to cheer for their success. I'm sure most of you guys feel the same way about some company out there too. Maybe it's Apple? Maybe it's Microsoft?

    I wanna know what companies you guys would cheer for if they achieved total world domination. I have two:

    1) Coca-Cola
    2) Google

    What's yours?

    Tough one. I like a lot of companies' products but I find it difficult to get over the fact they're still businesses and are all driven by money. I suppose the ones I like the most would be creative companies like those involved with animation and game creation... I wouldn't complain if Pixar took over the world :)

    Normal Kid LLC:)

    Also, most of the companies listed make great products but have some unethical business practices. As do almost all businesses.

    Amazon is a good one, wouldn't of thought of them. Can't say they hold a soft spot in my heart, but I do like them and wish them even further success.

    I guess also Nintendo, although I no longer like their products very much, I'm still happy when they succeed. They probably do hold a soft spot in my heart, due to all the great childhood memories they gave me.

    And uhh, I guess that's it. I like a lot of companies, but I don't really root for them or have a soft spot in my heart for them.

    I'd agree with Amazon and Nintendo. Something about them just seems honourable but I'm not sure why... I'm dead bored of the Wii but deep down I know their intentions were good. Sega too; it's a shame they failed on the hardware front but they seem to be keeping their spirits up and they're one of the few companies that likes to take a risk on a new game mechanic every so often, not many publishers would have gone through with Bayonetta :p

    Yeah, Nintendo is a great one on the merit of Star Fox 64 and Ocarina of Time...
