Man an unbiased report from Rol. Wow

I knew Nintendo sold out the hardcore the day Nintendo said they were no longer competing with Sony and Microsoft. Nintendo said themselves they were going after the BlueOcean and not the hardcore that Sony and Microsoft were after. Nintendo specifically said they were going after casuals and I knew from day one that I was probubly going to get an X-Box this generation.

If it really took Rol this long to realize that Nintendo has shifted focus from us loyal fans in exchange for Soccer Mom's and five year olds then I really think he's over hyped. Lastly I remember just a few weeks ago people nominating Rol as the biggest NSMBW fan and I believe he won. But today he's bashing NSMBW what the heck.

Oh well its good to see another fanboy realizing, that Nintendo is neglecting its loyal fanbase in favour of non-gamers

Heh, ouch.  He was not serious.

However, it speaks volumes how hard it is to tell because there is so much truth in what he's saying (or copying, as the case seems to be).  Nintendo has put out so few great games this year and last holiday season.

I'll admit that since I was disappointed with Mario Kart on the Wii (favorite racing game but no co-op campaign and no FFA battle mode) I've played very little on the Wii.  Certain games, such as Wario Ware and Boom Blox, would not work on the HD systems and I am forever thankful for the experience, but there's just not enough to enjoy on the Wii to only have 1 system.

If he wasn't serious does that mean?

A) He already knows Nintendo turned their backs on the loyal fanbase

or

B) he still believes Nintendo is out to give its fans the games they deserve?

 

Yah I agree, Nintendo has given us only a few games to make the WIi a legit competitor. You pretty much have to own a PS3 or 360 on the side to truly game. Up untill now I've always been able to buy a single system. Nintendo has always given me a competitive console with all the AAA+ titles I could want. Now this generation were getting WiiSportsResort and WiiMusic/AnimalCrossing, while the competition gets Halo,ModernWarFare,GTA etc...etc...

But at least we get the odd good AAA+ game to keep the Wii at least worth owning. But in all honesty Nintendo doesn't support its fanbase as it has in the past. Their all about reaching the non-gamer that they have forgotten all about the Nintendo Hardcore Gamer of yesteryear!

 

P.S sorry Rol if I was alittle harsh but it wasn't my fault the article had so many points and it really looked legit. If I offended you I apologize

WIi is domed.



That's it! I hate Nintendo now. How can they not have Link in NSMBWii? I'll just lock up the game and let it gather dust!



To be honest, if Nintendo stays on their current path I won't be buying their next system, which honestly feels weird to even think about, I've always owned a Nintendo. I loved the first 1.5 years of my Wii, but ever since? Eh... it's been okay but not a blast.

YOU JUST REALISED??? ... i saw them neglect us loyal fans since about 1 year into the wii, when they kept releasing casual gamer games ...

its been 3 years, and we still haven't seen an fzero, star fox, proper donkey kong, or kirby game ...

YET we have seen junk like wii sports get a sequel, wii fit

DISAPPOINTED ... ive been loyal to Nintendo since the NES, but im getting fed up .... and i have a friend who has ONLY bought Nintendo consoles for his whole life, and he is considering getting a ps3 cos he cant handle it any longer ... so im not alone ...

cant wait to see Nintendo fans in denial start having goes at me ... When you do, remember im a Nintendo fan too! just ive lost respect, and dislike their change, snobbing us loyal fans for some extra money from casual gamers ....

 

I love how some people are missing the sarcasm. And to top it off with your post being nothing but blantant lies and bullshit. Classic VGChartz...classic.

How is his being fed up with and disappointed in Nintendo bullshit and lies? Do elaborate.

I realize, after a few years in here, that the OP is, of course, being sarcastic but its still a viable question. Maybe you're happy with the Wii but that doesn't mean that this guy is. 

Three years in, the Gamecube didn't have a proper Star Fox, Donkey Kong or Kirby game. F-Zero was outsourced to Sega and didn't quite match the quality of the N64 game. And even the Star Fox game which was released later on was a big disappointment.

Yet we saw junk like Donkey Konga get a sequel and didn't get a single great 2D platformer at all. No, Donkey Kong Jungle Beat didn't cut it and Wario was stuffed in his own 3D game while Luigi was starring in a "horror" game for kids. If that wasn't enough, Nintendo published that horrible Mickey Mouse game aimed at four year old kids, ruined 3D Mario by forcing a waterpack on him and betrayed Zelda fans by making The Wind Waker with cel-shaded graphics instead of a more realistic look like shown in an early tech demo before the Gamecube's release.

So what's the point? There are always reasons to find something annoying about Nintendo, because they make all sorts of games. Some people read too much stuff on the internet, let their mind be influenced too easily and thus let others dictate what they have to think about gaming. Like for example all this casual gaming garbage that didn't really exist prior to this generation and buy an HD console, because that's where all the hardcore games are. Then there's all the complaints about the games that haven't been released yet, but no real appreciation for the franchises which had an entry earlier than last generation.

Not saying that PeteyPeeps is necessarily a victim of "conventional internet wisdom", but there surely are some signs of it in his post.

Hey, just wanted to say, F-zero GX was amazing, and sega did a great job! lol its my fav Fzero ever! maybe i loved it so much cos i have alot of respect for sega and nintendo, and when the combined to make that game, it made me happy.

I guess ur right, maybe im blinded by my love for nintendo ... ill stop windging about nintendo, i guess ive been craving some more from them other then the wii franchises ' wii sports, wii play, wii music etc ' and i didnt overly enjoy twilight princess, and loved windwaker ... maybe its my childhood that made the gamecube so memorable, and the wii such a disapointment, sorry if i offended anyone

Im with you there, ive been a devoted nintendo fan for about ~ 15 years, but enough is enough. But how the wii is going, i cant see nintendo releasing a console for another 3 - 4 years, its on fire!
