Pretty much everybody who is not into games enough, and have to live in a small nostalgia house, where Nintendo is the only AAA developer. I often wonder why do I even try? Its not like my comments will make some suddenly realise that there are way more high-caliber games out there that have to be played.

I guess Mario Kart never gets old Rol, huh? :P

I am glad that you brought up Mario Kart, because it highlights why Nintendo is better. What's its competition? Rubbish like Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed, ModNation Racers and LittleBigPlanet Karting.


No, he's talking about Knack! You know that high quality game that got like a 54 on metacritic and destroyed not only sales wise by 3D World  but also critically (which got a 93 on metacritic). Or was he talking about the second worst recieved Killzone of any gen on any console including handheld..... Or the broken Battlefield game..... They did have the mediocre Infamous game!

Let's just put it this way, the game of the year for both PS4 and XBone was Assassin's Creed Black Flag which was multiplat, cross gen, and available on the Wii U. That's the kind of quality he's talking about, lol.

 

My goodness... I dont know hwat disgusts me more:your lack of knowledge when it comes down to gaming or the intolerance that you have towards anything that is not made by your soon-to-be extinct manufacturer, and last but not least your ignorance towards anything that is quality gaming

 

Do you even remember the atrocity that was the WiiU library in its first year? Do you even know what games are announced at this point for every other console, but the WiiU? Do you not see that the WiiU pretty much made it certain that Nintendo will never, ever again  have a fighting chance in the home console market? Or you are simply OK with exclusives like GC remakes and 3DS ports?How much time will those be enough? The handheld market is colapsing, and the 3DS sells less and less every year. Yes the Vita numbers are terrible on the other hand the PS4 is raping .

 

Also when you compile gaming lists and brag about metacritic score, dont forget that there are DD only games to on the market. Maybe Nintendo forgot about that function on most of their 21'st century devices, but their rivals didnt Thats what you get when your target audience lives in caves :))

How soon are we talking here?

A new Zelda with TP graphics would steal the show IMO.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Well if we are lucky, then never. There is still plenty of time to turn things around, and as far as I know they still have enough cash in their reserves for at least one last trial. At the end of the day the GC/GBA combo prooved that you dont need a 100  million+ selling console to be profitable. Maybe they should really try and create a trully core-based console next time, and not something that tries to catter to every audience.

Sooooo, if they trully fail, I would say one more gen, and game over. But then there is allways a chance of heaving a Wii or DS-like miracle



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

There is absolutly no facade. I have vocally stated my views regarding the fate of Nintendo several times on this site. Just because I hate the direction it has taken in the last genertion and I think that most of their farnchises are overrated and overprotected by the gaming community, it doesnt mean that I dont have any fond memories of growing up with Nintendo games too. Actually I think thats exactly the reason why I am angry at them the most. Oh well, at least they are actually making quality software in the handheld scene, and sooner or later I will buy a 3DS like I do with every Nintendo handheld thus far.

The only difference is that compared to many in this thread I actually took off my nostalgia glasses when they started to go down on a patch, that only the most diehard fans would consider good.

But thats enough derail for this thread, from my part. I already went way beyond what the OP asked.

On topic I would like to add one more prediction: Nintendo will unveil this e3 new franchises, that even tough will look and play in a cool fashion, they will be far to niche to make any difference in the overall console sales trend. They will have plenty of software to keep the systems they have afloat, but nowhere near enough to actually be competitive, like they where in the 2006-2009 period.

There is, or rather was, a facade. When you go into Nintendo threads and feign disappointment/sadness that Nintendo games won't light up the sales charts, it clearly doesn't allign with your actual views that are the opposite of that.


Lol, exposed. I'm gonna let this guy rant himself out of relevance.

The Wii U had a large software drought in it's early months and it's game lineup seemed weak compared to the fantastic year the ps3 had (arguably the best year ever for playstation) but make no mistake the Wii U had the best launch lineup of any of the next gen consoles (Though none were really great). The Wii U also launched with some very good DD only games. Such as, what I consider to be the best version of trine 2 and Nano assault neo.

Yeah, PS4 doesn't know anything about remakes. Lol, I just want to know if you're actually serious.

And yeah, great argument. Let's not look at what's available now, let's look at what was available then on Wii U compaired to now on PS4.

And with metacritic scores I'm at least giving you something tangible, not running my mouth about quality (which you brought up) and having absolutely nothing to back it up.

This is getting too funny, do carry on.

From whose viewpoint? Nintendo fans will obviously think Nintendo show the best games, but then Sony fans would argue Sony did ect ect.

How do you quantify "best games"


From video games fans. People who just happen to play a system for its games, not for its brand.

For videogame fans it's not going to be all one sided, talk about talking for everyone. Plenty of multi console owners that would disagree.
