| Intrinsic said: No no no and no. This is the equivalent of basically saying that every artist in the world given a blank sheet of paper is inferior to nintendo. Thats just practically impossible. SMG is a platformer. So in truth if you were to compare it to anygame, it should be compared to other platformers. Is SMG the best considering the combination of factors you mentioned? Thats possible, but its still a platformer. And that is just one genre of games. But I will give it to nintendo that they ahve some of the best platformers out there and no one else seems to be in competition with them. Well with exception to LBP, which does things that no nintendo platform does. Just look at games like Uncharted 2, The last of Us, ME3, Infamous:SS, The order, LBP (presentation mention since we don't yet know how it plays), Driveclub (same as the other) actually better yet, GT5/6, Journey, Ryme (same as the other), Wipeout HD. there is nothing on the Wii or WiiUthat can touch any of those games mentioned in their respective genres. And all those games have varying art design and appropriate level design. There is literally "nothing" on a nintendo platform that is either like those games or matches them on a technical or artistic level and scale. Nothing. And this is the problem with nintendo gamers (and where I at least agree with you), when they talk; you can't help but see that its clearly obvious they live in a bubble. Its almost like no other game or platform exists.... I guess that has to be the case cause if it werent they wouldn't have the WiiU as their primary console. |
I don't like the Wii U and won't buy it until the end of it's generation, and I don't know if Nintendo is still that good.
But when I look at their team and their games like Wonderful 101 and Mario Kart 8, I knowing past games: Nintendo are the best plateformer/adventure artistic directors of video game.
NO other company, whether Sega, Naughty Dog, Insomniac matches them in term of objective artistic and technical quality judgment. I love Crash Bandicoot, Ratchet and Clank or even Beyond Good and evil, but Nintendo are really in another league if you understand and see al the details.
