I never said they milked one franchise.  I listed a bunch of their  big franchises.

The only franchise that keeps things fresh (with any story in it) is advance wars, I didn't want to include a masterpiece in the rubbish I mentioned.

Non-violent? or just to lazy to make beautiful games?

colorful graphics? or just lazy?

no story? or didn't hire any story writers?

Almost no differences in the franchise for 20 years? or just milking?

EDIT: I guess nintendo games can be good for small children, who really don't care about a good story, or complex gameplay and open world gameplay.


ROFL!! I was getting a little bothered by you until I clicked on your profile and saw that you're a 16 year old male. So since good games = blood, explosions, etc. and bad (kiddy?) games = anything without that, I can devise that you are a typical 16 year old guy who takes himself a little too seriously, thinks he's a badass and likes to blow stuff up.

And I must say, deep analysis of the gaming world man, deep!

And BTW, you may want to reference forum rule #5 (platform criticism) in regards to calling the Wii 'crappy' with nothing to back that up, and also rule #8 (insults) regarding your comment about somebody being a 'dim-wit'.

i wouldn't say i'm a "hater" but generally, i dislike the xbox idea, since, it's clear that they make the consoles just for money, where Nintendo really makes the difference!!

how can they simply make a remote for xbox360??
come on, for god's sake, don't they have a brain??
(a brain in order to think of something NEW on their own)

Um... EVERY video game company in the history of the world made their consoles for the money. That's how business works, you see demand for something, and you create a product to fill that demand with the intention of making money. If all of a sudden there were no market for video games, do you think Nintendo or Sony would continue making consoles just for charity and fund it out of ther own pockets because the loved gaming? No. If the money dries up, any company will look elsewhere.

Clearly you should dislike every company in existence by this reasoning.

This is a serious question and well I just want to know why some people feel the need to bash the 360. The 360 brings many people joy its a great HD console, great online, has a huge collection of games, well designed controller with rumble, the console sales are still going well, software numbers are doing extremely well.


 That about sums it up. Fanboys love to tear down other consoles because they are biased. They will attack anything about the system (whether it is actually bad or not) just to make them feel better about their console of choice. It is sad to see this kind of stuff anywhere, really. All the consoles have something good to offer. The Wii has the motion controls, which from what I've heard are wonderfully done in many games, and low costs for lots of simple fun. The PS3 has blu ray, Home, a constantly expanding library of excellent games (MGS4, KZ2, R2, Motorstorm 2, etc, etc), and the 360 has great online and the biggest library of the 3 next gen consoles, which include some absolutely stunning games such as Gears of War, Bioshock, Halo 3, etc, etc.

Ya because no one copied a good idea before??? rumble? analog sticks? online play????

and who has the most profitable gaming company this generation????? Nintendo giving you less at a profit while Sony and MS took losses on thier products. but MS is only about the cash???? you might want to re-think  that.

They are a business with stock holders just like sony and nintendo. If they werent interested in money thier product would suck!

and ya there are a lot of flame post that are just about bashing 360 yes its down in sale over the last few months and will continue to lose in others and japan but the 360 will probably win in americas! for at least the next 2 years.

and that market has worked well for windows on the PC.



P.s. I will jump on a bad take on any console! if its crap, I have all three and love them all. but if wii guy goes off on PS3 360 and is saying the wii can do more then those other console and can even play thier games because of better design! or PS3 guy says My console can teleport me to Tom Cruise's house for some KFC! or the 360 can do all the above and teabag your grandma at the sametime! I just go nutz.

but I tend to lean towards the 360 cause of all the games I like! And by the way Olivia Munz is looking hot tonight!

What about Fire Emblem? Doesn't it have a story? In fact, isn't it made by the same people who make Advance Wars?

Non-violent? or just to lazy to make beautiful games?

One would assume you are saying games require violence to be beautiful, but that's not your intent. I admit your intent was hard to decifer here. Did you mean non-violent games are caused by laziness? Is Manhunt 2 not lazy, then? Are violent games always beautiful? Are beautiful games always violent? I give up, I can't decipher your meaning. It's poorly written and nonsensical.

colorful graphics? or just lazy?

Lazy? What are you talking about? It's become crystal clear to me that you've played very few, to no Wii games in your life, which is unfortunate. You speak of development or hardware? Graphical development is limited by the hardware? Are you telling me that Nintendo worked in conjunction with Retro studios to make a machine that wasn't graphically intensive because Retro is lazy and didn't feel like it. How bout this? Are you telling me that laziness, and not hardware limitations cause graphics to be lesser than the Xbox 360, and indeed the Wii is capable of much more. You make no sense, sir.

no story? or didn't hire any story writers?

Are you familiar with the concept of different software studios? How bout this? Nintendo hired the writer of Final Fantasy VII for the small story in SSB:B. It's more about a gameplay for certain games than money to hire writers. 

Almost no differences in the franchise for 20 years? or just milking?

Metroid? Pikmin? Zelda? Wii Sports? You played Zelda on Nintendo? Mario? 20 years? Seriously? Do you really believe that Super Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, MP3, or Brawl were lazily developed to milk a franchise? Are you actually saying that, having played them all, that these games are lazy cashins? Jesus H. Christ. You sir, lose credibility with every word.

EDIT: I guess nintendo games can be good for small children, who really don't care about a good story, or complex gameplay and open world gameplay.

 

Nintendo games can be for...small children, and small children alone. No grown man would want to play a videogame about Mario or Zelda? You know, it's people like you who say that about the videogame industry as a whole. You know what, they never played a videogame, just like you've rarely played a Wii. Your sincere lack of respect, understanding, or acceptance of anyone with different tastes than you make me sick, sir.


Wow. You're not a gamer, my friend. You're just a wandering soul, lost in a world that's bigger than you could imagine. You'll find literally hundreds of posters on this forum that could say what you just, with much better form. They would do it so well, that it would piss your target off far more than you did, and it wouldn't even have been considered trolling.

 

However, you are not them. You sir, give Nintendo-Haters a bad name, and that I don't say lightly. I've responded in red, so that we may leave no doubt.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

@zenfolder: Well said. I was about to do the same to his post, but I was too non-violent, and therefore lazy, to make a beautiful, red, bloody, post such as yourself. I am clearly for small children only since I don't care about Open World posting or complex typing.



i think its idiotic to "hate" any console. we should all be glad that there is competition.

I never said kiddie games equal bad, but, nintendo seems to keep making kiddie games and because they have never made anything mature (besides the bad geist) i think they just don't know how to make a good, complex game.  And it doesn't necessarally have to be violent, but  DETAILED. Violence in videogames is DETAILED, that's why i used that as an example.

 

And you insult my age? yeesh, got nothing better to do?  Have a job you should be doing?

I think you are getting personality and originality mixed up. You can keep making Mario games until the world explodes and make them with personality.
