I don't think people that speak like this have ever played the Wii and just want to justify their high priced purchase. Tell me, have you ever played a game with Mario in it or are you scared off by cartoon characters because they're not manly enough? |
Nintendo has had very good things.And its current core games are extensions of those.But they arent developing in the same way as its casual and marketing based approach to mass market gaming.Their old franchises are at least keeping the old NIntendo fanboys with the Wii and showing that some core games can sell....at least if they have Mario written over it.
I am not scared of cartoon characters.They just dont motivate me at all.Or at least ,they dont motivate me most of the times.Playing one of these each year or two years is allright ,have a complete lineup based on mascots ,virtual pets and the like is for most adults not interesting at all.Nintendo fans tend to think that others just think they are more manly because playing violent games ,beating prostitutes etc.It doesnt have anything to do with that,ot at least it doesnt have anything to do with that for good amounts of players.Nintendo fans have REAL problems figuring out that many grown up people just dont relate the same way with cartoon characters and official pets as what they did when they were 10 years old.But not ,they CANT get it ,it must be that they want to beat some more prostitutes or play some bald space marine to feel more manly isnt it?
