The truth about Nintendo

I just have to say that the degree of integrity in this post is visible in the comparison of Sonic and Mario's soundtrack evolutions throughout the years. The bias becomes blatantly obvious when OP spins Sega's use of [cheesy] modern rock bands for Sonic themes as superior and more beneficial than Nintendo's instrumental Mario themes in today's era.

What? Seriously

Read the OP:

"Note that I’m not taking into account tastes when referring all those games earlier (like the Guinness book is not about the best people in the world). I’m just focusing on objective remarkable achievements of some games that could have only been done with effort/time/money. If the game X is beautiful or if the game Y is fun, that is already subjective (about tastes)"

If Nintendo merely copied the "cool" things PlayStation and Xbox were doing with more realistic games and simulators, we would have too much parity, and lack many of the unique and creative offerings that have come from them over they years

Nintendo wouldn't have to copy Sony or Microsoft. Look at the incredible amount of cutting-edge games that Sony invented that weren't based on any Microsoft game. Nintendo would follow their own way too. That's one thing I very curious, what kind of AAA game would Nintendo pull out if they were willing to spend their billions...

Yeah, they stuck with Mario Kart for all these years, but you know what? It's still incredibly fun for many people and manages to differentiate itself in each iteration. Uncharted games are amazing, but each one barely adds to the previous one.

Nintendo is the most influential gaming company of all time, constantly innovating in many different areas. Nintendo doesn't copy what the others are doing so much, because they don't have to, and they don't want to. There's no reason to bash them for this, as they still make some of the most innovative and fun to play games around, despite the longevity of their franchises.

Again, read the OP:

"They create games that are original, fun and engaging to the eye."

Yet, the OP also tell what they do wrong. Isn't that legitimate, to point out also the negative side?
