They're all different games, sometimes across different genres, that look the same. Just saying, "but they're Mario games," doesn't set that aside. If you have a problem with "realistic games" looking the same then you should have a problem with tennis, racing, fighting, platforming, and party games all looking the same, too--if you don't, then you are a hypocrite. The core truth here is that a man who works for a company where many different games look the same is pointing a finger at the rest of the industry for making games that look the same. Never mind that many "realistic games" do not look the same, especially since many "realistic games" aren't very realistic. Halo, Doom, Deus Ex, and Fallout do not look the same. The military shooters aside, many games have their own style which make them relatively unique. Really, this is just Nintendo management trying to make themselves look better by putting down everyone else with generalizations. It's what Reggie does all the time. People who are already Nintendo fans might like it but I think it turns everyone else off. |
Gives Pokoko a cookie (because I cant "like/thumbs up" your post)

Everything they say that is negative about their competitor or the industry is just them being upset and salty right? Haha... |
I think your trying to make a "joke" of this matter is a defense mechanisme, so people dont go that path.
You must realise it can be taken that way, otherwise you wouldnt have felt the need to post that.
Honestly alot of Nintendos PR is just "we re good at everything, our competitors suck" or
"we did good, its just our greatness is misunderstood by consumers".
