whats not to understand to improve there standing in the west they would need the games that are popular in the west (at least the home console) simple |
You are all over the place and not making any sense. This is how our coversation has gone.
I made a post describing what I think Nintendo should do in order to appeal to the west, which was use their western 1st/2nd party studios to focus on western games. Retro should make a first-person, western RPG with various aspects of Metroid Prime, Fallout & Bioshock mixed together. NST should go back to making sports games like Wave Rave & 1080 Snowboarding instead of Mario vs DK. NLG should go back to creating sports games but NOT Mario Sports. Monster games should go back to releasing racing games but NOT a Kart racer.
Ur response was that Nintendo did that during the N64 Era and it didn't help.
I responded by explaining how in the west, N64 saw a very minimal decline from SNES despite losing 3rd party support because they had a stronger focus on western software. Japan saw a big decline but not because of Nintendo releasing western focused games, it was due to losing most of their 3rd party support by going with cartridges instead of CD which caused them to lose the JRPG & fighting audiences that were huge on SNES but had migrated to PS1.
U responded that I was cherry-picking by only focusing on the west.
I responded by saying my original post was about ways to improve their image in the west so the Japanese market was irrelevant to my original point.
U responded with saying in order to improve their image in the west, they need to release western games instead of releasing more of the same.
So basically we have gone around in a complete circle and ur argument is actually 100% what I said in the first place.
When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.
