what mature games from nintendo?
they've never done 1

Nintendo has published a handful, and owns the rights to Eternal Darkness' Sanity Effect (I'm not sure if they actually own the entire IP or not though). Sort of like Next Level Games developing Punch-Out!! it is still a Nintendo game.

yes, but they never DEVELOPED a single one

And...do they have to?

Nintendo has said since day one on the NES they make games for 'all ages'.  It seems to have gotten them pretty far.  I can't think of one company who makes strictly M rated games who has gotten to the level of Nintendo.  The biggest companies out there that I can think of that focuses on M rated games are Blizzard and Rockstar, and they don't even come close to Nintendo.

Nintendo has titles like Metroid, Fire Emblem and etc, all Teen.  And you know what, many people who like the 'M' games tend to like these games as well.  They're doing just fine.

Wow, Blizzard has been VERY successful with WoW alone. Then throw in the Diablo2 craze (many still play it today). They don't even have a console but just develop their games that have been extemely successful. I would go as far as saying that warcraft and starcraft and to a lesser extent diablo all rival Mario, Zelda and Metriod. Starcraft2 is pretty much the most anticipated game out there PERIOD along with Diablo3. Just ask around anyone that owns even a mediocre PC how badly they have been waiting for both those games. The story and replayability in Blizzard's games have been second to none. I know I will put my PS3 on hold the moment SC2 and D3 come out along with many others.

FYI, Starcraft, World of Warcraft, and Warcraft 3 are all rated T for Teen. Only Diablo is rated M. Diablo also has the lowest sales....hmm I wonder why?



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."
