| kupomogli said: Yeah, you should me examples of shovelware titles, because there's been so many shovelware titles hyped up throughout the ages. There's been plenty of games before publishers got tired of supporting a fanbase who didn't make them money. Need For Speed Most Wanted was mentioned a few posts ago. It was a late port on the Wii U, but t hat doesn't change the fact that it was the best version of a game that's received high scores. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 had an exclusive Nintendo themed game mode and Nintendo costumes available in the game, not as DLC. There are many other games Nintendo fans could have supported, a good chunk of them being the same quality as their PS360 counterparts. Nintendo fans complained about not supporting games that didn't include an online mode they'd never play more than once, or DLC that wasn't worth purchasing as excuses to why they wouldn't purchase them when it didn't matter if that content was included or not, we know the fanbase would have ignored the games anyways. For proof, all you need to do is look at the above paragraph showing how Nintendo got the best versions with exclusive content and then search the amount of sales these games have on VGChartz for reference. It doesn't matter if you get a good version, the fans make generalizations that every third party game has a crappy Wii U port to back up not purchasing a game they were never interested in to begin with. |
Sounds like you agree with me. If Shovel Knight was bad, it would not have been hyped. Therefore the reason it was hyped is because it is a good game.
As for the rest, so you can't name a game then? That's disappointing. Though based on all of the criteria you named (late port, missing content), it sounds like Nintendo fans should be hyping the shit out of Watch_Dogs right now. For shame! It will sell the worst on Wii U because Nintendo gamers don't buy third party games, not even when they're late and missing content!
You're right, Nintendo fans didn't hype up Need for Speed or Tekken Tag Tournament. Neither did Sony or XBox fans, which is why those games didn't sell well on any platform. Where are you going with this?
