These are the people who are patting each other on the back and cheerleading the death of fun in videogames and not coincidentally will also be the ones asking what happened to videogames in about seven years. You heard it here first. Or maybe you've heard that before. |
While Nintendo games aren't the only source of fun and entertainment in gaming, deciding that you just can't enjoy Nintendo games because they're Nintendo is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Sadly, I see it daily, a lot of gamers need to pull their heads out of their asses. Too many people only focus on what is next in their particular genre. For their platform. If you're a real gamer, you enjoy everything you can get your hands on/ Sure, you have favorites. But if you just negate anything anyone else says, just because it comes from a certain manufacturer, or it's a certain genre, then your opinion is about as worthless as my credit rating.
All gamers should respect that there are titles out there that you probably haven't played, or even heard of. Not everyone gets a chance to buy everything. That being said, if you /can/ enjoy more than one platform, then by gods, you should. Pick up a new genre. Check out some RPG games, some strategy. Hell, I'm tempted to check out Guitar Hero, and I suck at rhythm games. Denying yourself the opportunity, when you can take it, to enjoy something new means you're fine with being saddled with what's available within one genre/platform, when you could be doing so much better.
