Right ... Question for you, if you have played every game in these series couldn't the "easiness" be associated with familiarity and skill in the game rather than a lack of difficulty? On the other hand, if you haven't played every game in the series couldn't your post be considered a blatent troll? People I know who were new to those series (even experienced gamers) tended to have difficulty because they did not know what to look for in boss battles, puzzles were not obvious, and the enemies were difficult; on the other hand people with lots of experience with the series didn't struggle at all, but were challenged at points. |
SMG was a bit easier than Super Mario 64 (MUCH more linear and less difficult to figure out what to do), but collecting some of those purple coins was ridiculous! Twilight Princess was definitely harder than Ocarina (probably the easiest of all the Zelda games). I haven't played a Metroid game in my entire life.
But chill out HappySqurriel. You love to talk crap yet get pissed off when somebody says something bad about Nintendo.
Maybe people are saying Nintendo is neglecting the core gamer because they actually are...although a lot of people have forgotten about the great core games that have already been released.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
