| RolStoppable said: It's often said that Nintendo-only gamers are missing out on a lot of great content due to their misguided loyalty to the Big N and close-minded perception of the gaming world that leaves them oblivious to what is going on outside of their comfort zone. But isn't the opposite just as true, that gamers who shun Nintendo systems are missing out on just as much, if not even more? After all, and without a shred of a doubt, Nintendo makes the best games by far. So it's definitely not just Nintendo-only gamers who are doing themselves a disservice by ignoring Sony's first party, Microsoft's first party and third party titles like... um... sorry, I am drawing a blank at the moment because I honestly can't think of anything that is actually good. Maybe Quantum Break's unannounced PS4 game can convince me. Anyway, here are five excellent reasons why you are seriously missing out if you don't play Nintendo systems: 1. Exclusive third party games that are truly exclusive - You know what I am refering to. Especially Microsoft has developed a habit of stretching the definition of exclusivity to a point where it doesn't mean anything anymore and we soon have to call such a game an exclusive exclusive exclusive in list wars. If you don't own a Nintendo system, you are missing out on gems like ZombiU and Sonic Boom, and that's definitely not because the companies who made those games respect the audience of other systems too much to port these games over. 2. Miiverse - This is a great place to hang out. Millions of gamers from around the world share their gaming experiences, ask for help if they got stuck or draw awesome pictures. You know the feeling when there isn't any new game coming out for two to three months, which is the norm in the video game industry, but thanks to Miiverse you can now use your gaming machine for something other than replaying Super Mario 3D World for the 17th time. 3. Gamepad - An excellent controller that has everything you could ask for. Now the annoying girlfriend who occupies the TV isn't a problem anymore, because you can switch to off-TV play with a simple button press. This thing is a godsend, and the only people you will find disagreeing with that are those who have never had and will never have a girlfriend. 4. amiibo - These little figurines are awesome. They make it possible to deliver additional content to the games you already own and love. Gone are the days when the game you bought was the game you got. I bet it won't take too long now until other companies jump on the bandwagon and copy Nintendo's idea. 5. A welcoming community, even outside of Miiverse - Nintendo fans are known to be nice, humble and tolerant. We don't talk down on those who don't share our preferences. We respect other people's opinions, even if they are clearly wrong (and they usually are). After all, it's a fact of life that not everyone can be as knowledgeable and great as us Nintendo fans. |
Great points! Even though idk about sonic boom and ZombiU be convincing games, but rather Bayonetta 2. Miiverse is a ton of fun even though i almost never go on there. E-shop is suprisingly a good web store, and 3DS games library is more then amazing and Wii U's library is looking preatty good aswell with Zelda Wii U and xenoblade chronicles X coming up. I dont own any other consoles except nintendo. I dont need to really, but i know i miss out on some few cool games i maybe be interested in, but mostly im a preatty big nintendo fan :)
