Just a little context. Im still ~newish~ to Nintendo. I just finished Ocarina of time for the first time a few days ago, and even though Metroid Prime is my favorite game ever, Ive only played that Metroud game and only once. Ive experienced a lot of their big franchises but never really got into the., and Ive still never played an Animal Crossing, Star Fox, or F-Zero.
Because im in a house in Oregan with bad internet, I was going to wait to go see the e3 vids. But then I heard about it. "Metroid Prime 4."
After catching up with the bug announcements for all 3 : Nintendo easily won. And that's not to say that Song put on a bad show. Somy has always been the best at hyping up their titles with a great presentation.
But looking at the content of Sony, it's all games I either am not that excited for, or games that feel too familiar. Sony has a serious problem of making every big IP by them into a quote on quote "mature, cinematic experience". That new God of War game? It looks boring as hell. I was surprised that a few moments caught my intrigued, but not many. And look, I've never been the biggest Uncharted fan, but I really enjoy the games. But did we nees ANOTHER UNCHARTED? The new title Detroit actually looks fairly interesting, because whereas most games that revolve around "choosibg a path" don't significantly change the experience from said choices, this looks like a game where your choices way heavily. Still, it's a linear cinematic experience.
Honestly it seems like most of Playstation's best exclusives are now third party titles or Legacy games. It's too bad I haven't picked up Horizon yet, that looks like an excellent 1st Party.
The spiderman game looks interesting I guess. Not much into heroes but its a game alright.
What REALLY EXCITED me was the Shadow of the Colossus remake and Monster Hunter worlds. But seeing as Worlds is multiplat and Shadow is a remake(a game i never got to play) I dont think it makes up for it all the way.
I understand people's complaints with Nintendo. Really, I do. People get tired of their franchises. But Nintendo's games look so fresh and new even with their mascots. The new Mario game looks fantastic. The Rabbids rpg? Super interesting. TWO NEW METROIDS?! Win! New BoTw dlc(that ill pick up when i get a switch xD ). A new Kirby and a new Yoshi on display? Super cool. Xenoblade 2 and FE Warriors before 2018. And a new Pokemon?
Yeah it sucks Nintendo doesnt have third parties. But honestly? They won
