| Rogerioandrade said: Man, seriously... what kind of herbs are people here in Vgchartz smoking lately ? This is clearly a troll thread. By the way, accusing Nintendo of franchises overusing is just dumb and silly.. Every main developer do it today: want some examples ? CoD, Fifa, GTA, Metal Gear, Resident Evil, Final Fantasy, Grand Turismo, PES, Tekken, Tom Clancy, Need For Speed, Dragon Quest etc etc etc etc. Franchises that are on the market for about 15 years or even more. Most new franchises hardly make financial sucess, with a few exceptions like The Last Of Us. |
Why the Sony making more franchises then even though they know its a financial risk? Nintendo is always about the money firsta and innovating games second. They never took chances even though they have money and always went for less powerful hardware than competition(making developers to spend more time on optimizations which is time consuming or decreasing the quality of the graphics and content) so not using technology very well and staying behind.
Sony is always passionated about gaming, so they take a lot of risks in creating new IP's, funding/helping developers problems, supporting new ideas from indies, creating studios, making great hardware etc., Also sonly is the only one who provdies great value with their services PS+, giveaways(blog debate every week), cross buy/save, cloud saves etc., for gamers.
Nintendo always sells their games at full price for long time and try to earn more profit due to the demand even though its very old. Nintendo should care about gamers also more in providing value and new IP's instead of givings same old IP's with some changes in gameplay/graphics(i admit its fun) instead of thinking about their profits first. Also they are still way behind in network capablities and they just did the recently the proper account system.
GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,
its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).
So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.
PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.
Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.
Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.
