natal is nintendoing the hell out of it.. thats what im talking about!

also microsoft stop moneying everything. its bad for your health! lmao jk

Hahah, Win!

This year, Sony and Microsoft decided to celebrate Nintendo by throwing a Nintendoing Gala Party in the fall.

This Metalocalypse scene sums up my feelings about Rare and Microsoft's use of them.

Replace fans with Rare and MS.

Pickles the Drummer: Dude, it was a fan attack! That's what Ofdensen warned us about!
Nathan Explosion: Why do fans feel that they have to do that? I mean, what, to get noticed?
William Murderface: I know. There's so many nice kids out there, and then just a couple of them gotta attack you. It just spoils it for everyone.
Nathan Explosion: I know, it's sad. It's sad for them.
Pickles the Drummer: It *is* sad. It's sad for *them*.
William Murderface: Seriously, it's pathetic. It just makes me feel sorry for them, that's all.

This is really dissapointing for me, because i expected something original, and it just goes to show how much autonomy Rare have lost.

People have been using the term "Avatold" to prove to critics, and fanboys, how successful Avatar has actually been. I came up with "Nintentold", which seems appropriate.

Already been posted.

So both Microsoft and Sony are making their own Wii Fit killers. Fantastic, this is going to be very interesting.

Just one thing, isn't Rare just helping probably? They do a lot of stuff aren't they? I think MS use Rare this days to let them work on different projects.

Its so sad. Natal can offer some good stuff for the core audience, but instead they seem to want to get the casual audience that Nintendo already holds captive. If this truly is their business plan, Natal will flop badly. Casuals buy ONE system, and most have it by now, its the Wii. There already are over 10 fitness games on the Wii. A fitness game on Natal will not get casuals to buy a 360 nor Natal.

360 has carved its path as a "core gamer" system, where Nintendo has taken the casual reins. MS needs to accept its identity and stick with it, or they're going to really tank badly with Natal.

It's not like the expanded audience is gonna drop Wii Fit or the EA Fitness game whatever to run, and buy a Xbox for this game.

Also it's pretty sad that Rare is abandoning their creative side in the SNES and N64 era do just turn in a copycat.
