I really can't understand why real gamers can dislike Nintendo!!! I mean okay they have not the most powerful consoles in the last years, but should this be really the reason for all the hate Nintendo receives? They really create awesome games and this is what counts!!! Real gamers should just not play on one console alone just because they are a Fanboy of a company they like!!! It's all about the games and the fun that you have while playing them, and it should be irrelevant on which console they are!!! I'm really a Nintendo Fanboy, but i also planning to buy a XBox One this year, and i would also purchase a PlayStation 4 but i think 2 consoles are enough and because i like Killer Instinct!!! I would like to give an advise, play all Nintendo games, or you will miss alot of great games in your life!!!

But I can easily say play all Sony games or you'll miss a lot of great games such as TLOU, Uncharted, Infamous, Tales games, Ni No Kuni etc.

Also not all Nintendo games are good. This is what annoys me about some Nintendo fans. They assume only Nintendo games are good and everything else is rubbish.  The Big 3 have all had absolutely dire games on their consoles. Nothing is perfect.

You should've said let me give you an advice; play what you want!

As i said before, i would purchase all 3 consoles but i think 2 consoles are enough!!! The PlayStation has alot of great games too and i know that i will miss these games!!! But not everyone in the world can afford 3 consoles, sadly i have to life with that too ;)

But why are you saying play all Nintendo games? Why not all Sony/ MS games rather than Nintendo? Why just Nintendo?

I understand that you are a Nintendo fan but try not to be biased with the 'advice' you give.

Because the Thread name is "Am I the only one who dislikes NINTENDO?"!!! Thats why i wanted to say that Nintendo is also a great company who makes games which are worth playing!!!

That's all cool and all but it's become more of a comparison thread from what I've been reading. Props for supporting Nintendo the way you do though.

Please don`t get me wrong, Sony and Microsoft has alot awesome games too which are worth playing!!! It`s just because the Threat is about Nintendo ;)

haha don't worry, I'm not taking you wrong. I was just probing you on your advice. I've own almost all Nintendo products and they do offer something the others do not.

I share your opinion, and thats why i wanted to say that Nintendo is also a great company which in my opinion it is also impossible to not like them ;) I mean they only try to make great games, it`s not like they do bad things!!! They only try to make great games like the other companys, they only make different games and this is really not a bad thing. In my opinion a real gamer plays the games he likes, and it doesent matter if they are from Nintendo, Sony or Microsoft!!! As long as you have alot of fun playing your favorite games i am fine ;) And everyone one who start virtual penis fights is not a real gamer for me ;)


I just wish they were willing to take greater risks and release a bundle of new IPs like Sony. Not all will succeed such as The Puppetter and W101 but you'll definitely find ones that do such as TLOU.

I wish that too ;) But they already have alot of great bundles, but to be honest i really would some things different than Nintendo does it now!!! But in the other hand i think Nintendo is such a big company who has alot of experience in such things, and i think they know exactly what they are doing, also if it does not look like that they know what they do ;) For example, if i had designed the Nintendo Wii U i also had made it more powerful, at least double the PS3 or XBox 360 power. But Nintendo is right, nicer graphics make not a better game. Look at Super Mario 3D World, it looks with its artstyle absolut awesome, and this game is a great example that the Nintendo Wii U can have great games when the developers take care of the games!!!

posted this in another thread but it fits here as well to show why i don't like nintento:

to me nintendo is probably the main reason why videogames are still seen as kids toys (aka. something that's not worth spending time with if you reach a certain age) and not as a serious form of entertainment art (aka. something that can be worth spending some time with regardless of age) by hudge parts of our soceity. imo we'd be much further down the line in accepting videogames as an artform without nintendo.


What a load of narrow minded bullshit.

But I guess dull pretentious crap like Unfinished Swan and Gone Home are the magnum opus every single game in existence should thrive to be.

better trying and failing than not trying at all.

Good lord guys, cut the quote trees.

Dislike is too strong a word to describe my feeling towards nintendo. I'm simply indifferent. They don't make any products I care for so I don't buy their products. I'm not sitting somewhere wishing they would go away but if they did, I wont be crying either.

i like and hate nintendo, they need to just go thirdparty on consoles, they just don't have the core market that sony and microsoft, they can't compete and nintendo knows that and thats why they made the wii, and it was a huge success but thats not happening again the blue ocean market has moved on, they are stuck with out a market and no third party suppor, chances of being succesful are nearly impossible

Sorry to disapoint you, but 3DS disagree with you. By your logic, if Nintendo IS ( not did yet, generation didn't even start ) failing with wii U and should turn on a 3rd party , Sony has too , because they ARE ( again, they still can save Vita) failing hard with Vita.

they should become 3rd party on consoles only, the n64, GC and wiiu are all failures, and the wiiu is setting up to be the biggest failure out of all three. and i agree sony should stop wasting time on vita and go third party on 3ds.

I agree with you on N64, they messed everything on that time. They thought they could rule the market after winning agaisnt Sega, but Sony came and showed their potential. GC wasn't a BIG failure, it wasn't just a best seller... Come on look at that generation, XBOX and GC were close in sale terms... XBOX just won by a few units, and that was their first big console... The real big failure was Dreamcast...

Saying that wii U is setting to become the biggest failure is premature... Generation barely started, all we can say FOR NOW is that ps4 is winning almost everywhere. Also, take a look at PS3, by your logic, in the initial years, due to ps3's poor perfomance like the wii U is doing now, they were set to become a biggest failure... PS3 turned in a Best seller...

Finally , would like to enforce that we can't say anything deeply for now. Xbone has more chance to fail than wii U, knowing that they don't have market in Japan and they 1st parties can't even be compared to Nintendo's. Nintendo can turn wii U in a profit easily, not the profit they dreamed , but something positive, as long the 3DS will cover the whole profit. The worst thing that could happen is a another big company turning in a 3rd party developer... Market would be way more monopolized, and we would see way less quality games.
