Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Today I was going to announce that I hate Nintendo for taking my best gaming years away from me, but then I realized I could be bi-polar

No, I have been dissapointed in the Wii and the launch of the 3DS has not gone as I had hoped, but mad? I decide where I spend my time, and unless you were forced into playing their games .. by them, I really don't see what there is to be mad about :)

I'm still mad at Nintendo.


What could they do to make you happy again?

Not release a tablet controller that eats away at hardware budget?

Edit: And to stop being sloths with their games, Yoshi Epic Yarn?  Really?  What's after that?  New Super Mario Bros: Epic Yarn Edition?  "Play New Super Mario Bros for the 5th time now with more yarn!"  Wind Waker Remake looks nice, but that's all it is, a remake.  Announcing a new 3D Mario is nice and all, but footage?  Are we going to get another Galaxy rehash?  Mario Kart... again?, there've been more Mario Karts in the past 6 years than Final Fantasies.  I want them to be bold again and show me why they made a tablet controller instead of making a tablet controller to sell consoles.

Yeah.  I agree.  Nintendo has released way too many Mario Kart games in the past 6 years.  There have been like two of them.  Once every three years?  Come on Nintendo, stop milking it.  I'm sick of these trianual releases.

They jumped from double dash (the second) to Mario Kart 7  (3DS), 4 have been released in 6 yearsish, this new one will make 5 in 7?



Xeno was all I needed from them. Looks amazing.

Mario Kart Double Dash (2003)
Mario Kart DS (2005)
Mario Kart Wii (2008)
Mario Kart 7 (2011)

So unless your six years count diferently than mine, there have been only 2 Mario Kart titles in the last six years. And now if it releases this year it would be 3 in 8, i guess they are truly milking their franchise...

Indeed. Nintendo normal 2-3 year hardware transition is frustrating, but tends to pay off in the end,

I was thinking of Double Dash at the end of the cycle (Counting it at 06 instead).  When was the GBA version out?  03?



Wind Waker is one of my all time favorite games of all time, so that made me very happy. I'm very interested in Project X as well, it looks absolutely amazing. Everything else was pretty much given, and I will withhold judgement until E3.

I'm appeased for now, I was downright outraged at Nintendo for the last couple of years. They have been absolutely atrocious, I'm on the same page as you spurgeon.

I hope this E3 will appease me. I really hope Metroid is there. Metroid is my favorite game series of all time, and there hasn't been a game in the franchise since Prime 3. *

Metroid, and footage for the games they talked about would make me a happy gamer again. Also, get some of these games to us sooner rather than later, because you didn't make anything for the last year of the Wii, and the first year of the Wii U has been bare, so there is no reason some games shouldn't be about done right now.































* Certain game has been removed because of how terrible it was. If game is mentioned, I gouge my eyes out with a rusty spork*

Do you like, not have access to google or something?  Super Circuit was out in 2001.  The Mario Kart games have come out between 2 and 3 years each time, with an average of 2.85 years.  There have been 7 Mario Kart games spread across 2 decades.  There have been 4 Uncharted games and that series started in 2007.  Halo started in 2001 and we've had 7 of those.  God of War is going to have it's 6th game next year, not counting 2 compilations.  11 Ratchet games since 2002.  5 Forza games since 2005.  Nine Assassin's Creed games since 2007.  16 Call of Duty games from 2003..

Nintendo sure has released a lot of Mario Kart games.

2001, and usually Mario Kart it's released on2nd half of the year, with Mario Kart Wii being the exception (April).

Maybe if you count one arcade Mario Kart you can bump your count by one, in 2007 it was released Arcade GP-2 in Japan :P
