Im criticizing the fact im playing a Mario on the U damn near same as one 25 years ago.  Im criticizing the nin supporters show of Nins diversity half of it had Mario in the title.

Sony and MS also make new franchises, Look at NG crash Jak Uncharted LAstofUS and now rumors of another new Ip.  Sony is not afraid to make new franchies and experiment with stuff,  Nin makes the same thing over and over and over for nearly 3 decades now.  Theya are failing and deserve to, be it lazyness or fear of risk.  Unless they start making new games they deserve to fail.   I'm also criticizing the stupidty of Ninty supporters saying Nin dont need 3rd partys... Maybe they are to young to remeber GC or N64.

 


Use that brain of yours.. Now really think about this here... WHY do you think Nintendo keeps making these 2d Mario games (and other Nintendo franchises)? Because people keep buying them! 

Got that? Cool..

Now.. WHY is it you think people keep buying it? Maybe because it's QUALITY! *gasp* perplexing concept I know!

Also, new franchises don't mean jack if they aren't of quality.

I will agree that Nintendo game quality has declined massively of late compared to Wii era nintendo, and ESPECIALLY NES/SNES era Nintendo, but even the current, declining Nintendo games are STILL about 100x greater quality than most of the boring, generic, and formulaic games you will find on Sony and MS's consoles; games that are riddled with endless cutscenes, unnecessarily complex control schemes, and stupidly easy linear gameplay.


Ohh yahh new franchises from last gen like Uncharted or Last of Us Mass effect Arent quality nuf for ninty supporters, not Marioesque enough and storylines way to complex for ninty supporters, also not enough cartoonin colours for anyone to ever enjoy.  And way to complex control scheme for the champions of waggle.

They make em cause its safe selling the same character with the same lack of story and same simpleton controls to their adoring delusional fanbase. 

I don't give a crap about storylines. If I want good storylines, I read books, watch movies (and maybe a few TV shows like Breaking Bad). I sure as hell don't look for them in video games, since most of them have horrible stories and writing anyway compared to movies. I play games to have fun, and to be in control. I'd rather create MY OWN stories when I play. Some backstory in the background of the game is ok, but I don't like having narratives forced upon me.

Eh, I played Uncharted and wasn't too impressed. It was fun for a little bit but got pretty repetitive fast. The cover system seemed flawed and felt like a poor man's Gears of War, and I got painfully bored with the endless cutscenes they constantly threw at me. It was also a bit linear for my tastes. Besides the pointless collectables, you had little reason to divert from the provided path.

Mass Effect I felt COULD have been awesome, but there was just WAY too much dialouge, even for an RPG. The controls were also very odd and complex on the 360. Seems like it would work far better on PC. I'm thinking of giving it another chance on PC with the keyboard and mouse set-up. Again, simply having a new franchise doesn't automatically make it good.

In short, I'd much rather play yet another Mario game than some of this boring crap that constantly gets churned out for Sony and MS's consoles. There are a select few gems in there but the majority are just way too easy, linear, and formulaic for my tastes.. But hey, at least those games have stories as you say! That is after all, the most important aspect of a video game! Oh and also teh grafix
