I can agree with that. But yeah, like you said, Sony has a bunch of those IPs, and Nintendo simply doesn't. They have to make sure they bring more of those kinds of IPs to the table themselves. Nintendo needs to fill the gap for the so-called "mature gamer", and to build up a decent roster of those kinds of games is going to take time to develop. It really makes me hope that Nintendo considers funding more second-party developers like Platinum and Valhalla that are willing to make those kinds of games for Nintendo, because the first party devs certainly aren't interested.

Also, when I said Ninty's online was crap, I meant the systems they didn't put into place and expected developers to come up with on their own (invite systems, solid messaging systems, etc.). The actual quality of online play is good, it's just the other things that they don't have that I've got a problem with.


Oh... Well fuck. I kind of agree with you. Like 99%.

...Well this is awkward.

I think the only thing I'd change is that Nintendo can't just fund these games. They need to make them in house. Retro was originally made for this purpose. They need a lot more Retros, and they need them to actually do what they were originally hired for. They need to own those IPs.
