No 3D Mario on Switch 2 yet seems to have short-circuited a lot of folks

I actually think it's totally fair to insist a system has "no games" if none of them satisfy you. It's not the responsibility of the individual to appreciate everything a company puts out, or to care if others like the line-up. If Nintendo puts out 50 games, and I dislike them all, well, then there really are no games.

Here are the problems, though:

• A lot of video game enthusiasts don't bother to actually play the games.
• Video game enthusiasts can be weirdly picky and inflexible, refusing to explore entire genres or balking because of one design decision.

This is totally fine, by the way. But you shouldn't weigh in with such confidence if you're not spending the time and energy to properly experience a game library. And I'm not talking about so-called "casual" players. They're playing their favorites and living their lives. I'm talking about us.

rational post.

its true. i didnt spend any time on pokopia. it looked like a throw away title at reveal but i have since seen that it has received praise and positive feedback. i can appreciate that and i can recognize it as a quality title. 

but its pokopia. the problem that some of us have is that we are being told that its fine that we are getting remakes because nintendo made pokopia and its selling a lot and has good reviews. these remakes look completely kick ass, so its disappointing that something that looks so cool is being used to remake a game rather than making a totally new experience. i dont feel like thats a hard thing to understand, and many here dont. but this thread so far has become a giant circle jerk trashing people with this point of view and saying we should be happy because nintendo made pokopia. it is selling quite well afterall.

It is. Because I don't give a shit about Starfox, but I was highly interested in Pokopia, because I waited for years now for a new Dragon Quest Builders. Square is not doing it, but Nintendo is, and it is great. So I think it is quite rude of you, to apply your preferences to everyone and claim your tastes matter more than everyones elses.
