| BasilZero said: Nintendo succeeds in bringing new elements to already existing IPs - there isnt anything wrong with that however like Valve who is much pretty much frozen solid in terms of software production - Nintendo hasnt really created a new AAA quality like IP - and when I mean AAA quality I mean like popular games like Mario/Zelda/Pokemon. Werent most of the new IPs simply casual grabbers like Wii Sports/Brain Age or something minor on the portables? |
No they fucking were not.
Many a time did I bust out my Balance Board for Rock 'n' Roll Climber - a game so far beyond AAA that its actual rank looks like the phoneticised screams of "hardcore" gamers falling limp to its brutal physical and mental demands.
Even the Art Style games made me their bitch. Cubello is some sort of arsehole Chesstris, Orbient requires players to use judgement and reflexes for more than just smashing a button for a QTE, and I only learned how to play Light Trax because I had a feeling that it was the sort of game that would blossom into something awesome with some patience and understanding. I am now allowed to be a smug bastard while playing it, because I know how to win, even if no-one else knows what the hell is happening (it's a racing game, by the way).
WHERE IS MY KORORINPA 3
