Battlefield is a thousand times more a kid game than SMB3DW or Wind Waker are, try again EA.


Hmmmm... okay, I see some reasoning in that... NOT. Or is "kid" the new "gay" or something?

Pretending to be a soldier is the old and current "kid".

Enjoying the two other games I mentioned belongs in any age group.


So it's a kids game because a lot of kids play it sorta like they're playing grown-up? I feel EA are not assholes because they called Nintendo games kids games, but because they made it sound like there's something wrong with that. The Wii was a success because it was family friendly, the WiiU actually scared off a lot of that userbase in Nintendo's fruitless attemps of trying to attract "core gamers".

Nintendo games are made with kids and families in mind. If you never had a childhood, or don't have feelings of nostalgia and wanting to feel young again, you wouldn't play them. There's something very positive about having an inner child and if you were forced into maturity early in life, you'd be a much poorer man for it, probably cynical, angry and paranoid. At the very least just boring and dull.

Perhaps correct with Mario, but not necessarily with Metroid Prime or Zelda (at least the Zeldas I played). The world in the latter two is in big part ambience, I feel. Both kids and adults can get into the universes presented in both, if by imagination, or by getting integrated into the games' atmosphere - the backstories, environment, and music, all work toward that purpose. I feel that that is quite universal and quite a bit more mature than some jokes that people present as "mature" games.

I could make a side point as to how most war games are just plain immature, but that would really drag on and detract from the above.

So you believe in maturity eh? Sorry, but I believe in God. God wants us to be his children. The person who wanted us to be mature was Adolf Hitler.

I could make an awful joke about God wanting us to be children. In my country the Catholic priests have a bad reputation with regards to children...
