Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Can we please stop game discussion to talk about how doomed is Nintendo?

Seriously guys I'm sick of talking about games on the Nintendo DS or Wii because I think we need another thread, link to an article about how Nintendo is doomed. 

Doomed you ask?  Sure there selling way more than the 360 or PS3 and making way more profit, but ignore that for a secound and lets talk about how doomed they are.

 

Sure I could talk about....oh hey I just finished Madworld...wow what a fun game that was.  Anyone else think the sumo boss fight was easily one of the coolest things ever?  I mean dodging crashed helicopters only to push him into a pit of sawn off poles?  Awesome.

 

Now back to the doom, oh yeah I'm enjoying dragonball origins...I know theres a dragonball game thats good, surprised the hell out of me.  Despite the long cutscenes the gameplay really does the series justice.

 

Sorry off topic, I was about to get to doomed ....oh hey GTA China town Wars.  Wow what a good game.  I enjoyed this way more than GTA 4 especially the genius drug trade business.  Also the flamethrower was just so satisifing to use.

 

Ok seriously doom talk now....anyone play wario ware shake dimension?  I was turned off by it because of its so called short length but I'm on my second play through to find all the treasures.  Also had a lot of great platforming in it, surprised this was a retail game for such a stylised 2D game. 

 

So now on the doomed report, any DS games to recommend?  I recently ordered Rythmm Heaven, Crono Trigger, Castlevania order of eclesia and Henry Hatsworth.   Wondering anyone out there tried Lunar Knights being eyeing that for a while. 

 

This just in from Yahoo...I picked up battalion wars 2 on the Wii, surprise...its actually good like the gamecube game.  Got it with Boomblocks cheap at Target (will play later on after BW2.) 

 

Sorry got way off topic anyone care to add to the Doom project?

Its too early for this
At least here in Cleveland.



I feel your pain man, we've been hearing that crap for years on the Sony board.



It's never going to stop, because HD fanboys want the Wii to fail so bad. Haters gonna hate.



OMG THE WII IS DOOMED
...OMG THE PS3 IS DOOMED
...OMFG THE 360 IS DOOMED
...OWATE THE PS3 IS DOOMED
...NONO WAIT NOW THE WII IS DOOMED

And the idiotic pattern continues.


Seriously, this is one of the reasons why I'm starting to come here less and less. And I agree with you.

 

EDIT: lulz I need to play Wario Land and MadWorld more. Fun games.

Ha, yes we need to look into splitting this board into two, with one dedicated to console war nonsense and another for actual discussion of games. If not, I'm sure everyone with half a brain will continue to abandon this place, as it just isn't worth coming here anymore when you look at the top threads on any given day -- not to mention the constant reposting.

Actually, let's not only split the board, let's also make a severe rule against reposting. If you read some article and rush to create a thread about it here without checking to see if one already exists, that should be an automatic ban. We'd clean this place out in no time if that rule were implemented.



Somebody here had it in their sig, but this is all cyclical

Summer/Fall of 2006 (when traditional thinking still reigned): Wii is doomed
Winter 2006/all of 2007 (in light of the Wii60 heyday): PS3 is doomed
Spring/Summer 2008 (as 360 stagnated and PS3 had a chance to play catch-up): 360 is doomed
Fall 2008 (after 360 price-drop): PS3 is doomed
Spring 2009 (with Japan slowdown and apparent games drought): Wii is doomed



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Don't worry April is half over. Sony was doomed in March (the hype for this picked up right after NPD as well) and I expect the 360 will be doomed in May. Analysts run these things in cycles to incite fans of one console while overencouraging fans of the opposing consoles.



batallion wars 2 rocks. we will have to play online sometime



 nintendo fanboy, but the good kind

proud soldier of nintopia

 

I saw Battalion Wars 2 available for $9.99

I have to get that eventually. The first one was a really polished GC game.
