Listen Canadian. When I was a stripling I played me some Turok, and before that I played me some Mortal Kombat, and before that I played me some Hogan's Alley. The fact of the matter is, appreciation for Gears-like properties isn't really tied into your age. Neither is Mario, insofar as that goes. Mario isn't just for kids - it's for you, too, if you will but pick it up. |
Whats with the italicized Canadian? I get the vibe your talking down to me cause of my nationality.....
Turok and Mortal Kombat arent Nintendo made games. My point, which you only reinforced, is that Nintendo is a kids company first, and uses 3rd parties for the adult gamer.
Ive heard the Mario isnt tied to age argument so many times but fact is when the majority of Nintendos 1st party IP's are played by children, you know they dont have adult gamers in their mind.
They may be core games, but not "mature core games" like ZombieU. Im sorry if I am at a place in my life where I want a mature look along with characters and plot. Nintendo just doesnt deliever that.
Thats why their E3 was the worst in my eyes...their games are meant for the tweens of today, not the ones of yesterday (us).
Maybe adults who play Nintendo 1st party games try to cling to their youth as a way of feeling young and escape the responsibilities of daily life. I dont know, but what I do know is that mentality is not for me.
