your post is filled with so many inaccuracies its making me doubt you are even serious.

- violence in modern games.. so what? here is my rebuttal, so what? and lets be clear, not all modern games, heck a lot of them have no violence, and the some that do, whats wrong with that? why would it make me want to "go back to nintendo".

- so more games in a specific genre is bad? if you would actually pay attention to the amount of games releasing on xbox, PS and PC you would realize the variety is massive, and there are tons of all sorts of genre's, much more than on Nintendo systems.

- you have no idea what you are talking about if you think "cinematic" experiences are taking away gameplay from gamers. simply no idea.

- i grew up with SNES and N64 true, but the games Nintendo make today dont interest me one bit. i play games i want to play today, not games i wanted to play 20 years ago

- the only reason i would bother with a nintendo system (if they keep going down the route they are now) is if any future son/daughter wants one. doesnt mean i will actually be interested in the thing though.

- id lose interest in gaming if i was playing nintendo games, not the other way around buddy.


My opinion is that Nintendo doesnt make that great of games anymore. they cant match the talent found at the top class developers like Naughty Dog or Rockstar. in my opinion Nintendo are becoming the definition of overrated. and i dont see myself ever going back to them after the direction iwata, myamoto and riggie had dragged them through.

a fair point of view. Though i can agree with the OP when he mentions too cinematic experiences and i felt the exact same way actually. Its just too movie. Nintendo feels more arcade:ish. And that in itself feels also nostalgic. BUt they dont always do that.

Their mentality of taking risks, and being unique and doing something new is not respected or appreciated by some people. For me however i appreciate it very much even though the results may not always be so good

Its not respected or appreciated because a good amount of time the changes dont work or is worse than what is already established. A lot of the times it feels like they are being different just to be different.
