When bashing a company, it's because of being a realist, not a hater.


Is this a dig at me? Im not gonna go looking for the post, but Im pretty sure I said something like this a short while ago in regards to Nintendo when someone was calling anyone being negative a hater.

"Gaf is terrible if it has some negative info about said platform"-Some poster here



Haterade is the official drink of the VGC Realists. With shots of Kool-ade on the side.



The rEVOLution is not being televised

Holiday sales numbers are always a sign of imminent greatness in the coming year and there is no arguing against charts that show past performance versus present.

It is insulting as an entertainment concept to imagine someone enjoying games on a device that isn't a market leader.

Every year when post-holiday adjustments hit; feign shock, and possibly show disgust at the inaccurate tracking of vgchartz.

Concept art and the knowledge of which studio is behind a game project is more than enough grounds to be super excited and start predicting metascores for the coming masterpiece. On a similar note; early gameplay trailers or even cinematics, are enough grounds to claim Game of the Generation.

It really doesn't seem like a Nintendo-fan perspective to me. More of a joke that you are determined not to find funny.

And your community season 6 signature can never come true now because Glover is leaving the show.


Ok, let's see:

1. This is clearly about wiiu vs vita and vita owners pointing out how digital sales on the psvita must be higher than on wiiu. Ninty fans' argument is always "but wiiu has digital games too". NINTY

2. This is contantly brought up when people make 15 (or 20, depends)-best-selling-games-ever threads and brag how Ninty dominates them. Then people respond, "but they were bundles", and people start fighting. NINTY

3. Could go either way (but I believe it's based on the latest wiiu software overtaking vita software sales)

4. This is clearly about developers arguing that wiiu is great and anonymous sources pointing out the problems they faced by making games on wiiu. NINTY

5. Ps3, ps2 beating other consoles or on track to, when it's more important how much profit you've made. Clearly about wii and nds profits. NINTY.

6. Everyone here is a tech expert who must correct the other tech experts on their spreading of misinformation. It's perfectly OK to derail any thread in order to do this. Every tech expert is also a DBZ expert (many of us are Toonami kids). General point

About Community, they're doing fine without Chevy Chase, they'll be fine without Glover (though it hurts me as a fan :(  )

As for it being a joke thread, I believe  that the OP's serious response to Joe shows just how much of a joke it is (i.e. he provides a proper argument).

OK everyone, let's establish some context. Naruball is calling this witchhunt and trying to get the FCC to shut this thread down because of my posts in a seperate thread. These are my two posts:

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5991711

In this one, I basically said whoopty-freakin'-do to the Wii U's "triumph" over the Vita. You can really see my burning vigor and enthusiasm. I'm all like William Wallace in Braveheart times 10 up in there. It must be because the diss I had for the Vita (Vitamax) is obviously more clever than the one I had for Wii U (Wii O U). I should have known that would never get past such fervent young watchdogs.

And this post here is the real culprit:

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5991734

That's where I suddenly got the bright idea to make this thread. But because it started in a Wii U vs. Vita thread, clearly this whole thing is just a subtle scheme to get you all to hate Sony and love Ninty! It's nothing more than propoganda! The jig is up, and I would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids!

Well you've proven I'm a irredeemable, blackhearted Wii U fanboy who would just as soon pickpocket the Vita while your head is turned and stick a 2DS in its place, but let me make my case anyway. In America, the justice system owes it to us to pretend we have the right to a fair trial.

1. That actually goes for every modern console. I've been saying and saying for a while now that every sales discussion must come with an asterisk because we can't track digital sales. You can actually find that in my post history. Can you find a post where I diss Vita sales? If you can, I'll request a permaban immediately. I'd also like to see a thread where Wii U fans are arguing against Vita fans over digital sales.

2. People argue over bundles for every console. Go find a thread on Playstation All Stars: Battle Royale.

Edit: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5992089

3.  "Yes, goes for both fanbases." So you don't think Microsoft has a fanbase. I'll keep that in mind when I read your posts from now on.

4. Or about Sony's DRM plans for the PS4 before Microsoft's E3 disaster? That came from an anonymous source who claimed to be an insider. What about the rumors that Samsung tried to buy Sony's gaming division? Another anonymous source that is definitely credible. What about the one regarding Microsof- oh wait, you don't acknowledge Microsoft.

Edit: I also had posts like this one in mind: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=176598

5. Yep, it's clearly about survivability: some of us are more concerned about a healthy and competitive industry that would benefit everyone than "one company to rule them all!" Don't know where you get me saying anything about the PS2, though. Sony made Scrooge McDuck money on that. Don't know where you got PS3 either. It's in second place and could stay that way, so who is bragging about second place? And also, that one company that you won't acknowledge has yet to recoup any losses from its gaming division, but no, this is all about Sony bashing.

Cool cool cool.

You might wanna add the following, which have nothing to do with you.

26. Never admit you're wrong. It doesn't matter if someone proves you wrong. Deny it at all costs, call it thread derailment, say it's irrelevant, that they're wrong, which would make you right, because lets' face it, you're smarter.

27. Be vague. Not too vague, as no one will care about what you have to say. Say something negative which is clearly about a certain fanbase, but don't mention the actual fanbase. If someone calls you out, claim you were talking about any number of fanbases.

28. Mention that you have all 3 consoles, which makes you unbiased. If someone points out that you're negative about a console, juts remind them that you have that console, so there is no reason for them to accuse you of being overly negative about it. It helps if you slightly criticise a company you like. You can then save those posts and use them to point out just how unbiased you are.

29. Use gifs of someone laughing to ridicule one's argument or pictures to annoy someone, instead of an actual argument. Much better. (Again obviously this is not about you; there's nothing wrong with the picture you added)

30. If somone disagrees with you and you exlain your point, but they still won't change their mind, there's only one possible explanation: problem with their reading comprehension

31. Act surprised when the sales of a console which has been doing terrible are released and they're still bad. "Wow, terrible x sales".

32. Say something negative about the sales of the company you don't like, but end it with a sad smiley face. The smiley face makes everything ok.

 

Again, to clarify, this is not about you, but VGC logic I've noticed over the years. Great thread btw.

No one cares about a game unless it's at the top of the pre-order list.

I got another rule! I don't know if it was already postes but here I go!

"Anecdotal evidence must be taken as fact if it favours your company of choice! This clearly shows that PS4 sells better than Xbox One!"

this way it can be used in every situation, since i remember one guy telling that his local whatever sold more psps and that there was hardly any shelf space for the ds

Very true kirby, the last part was more of an example but you are right!

This was actually the next one I was going to add on my own, but I'll gladly credit you for it. :)



When someone gives you some arguments about something you disagree with, you only focus on the weakest of their arguments and try everything to tear it down. Be sure to ignore all other relevant information.

When you dislike a console, the company behind said console will inevitably drop out of the gaming market or be bought by the company you like within the next 2 years.



May the adjustments be with you


I feel a disturbance in the sales

Vita is dead, but WiiU still has 2014.



-My company of choice just had some decent numbers during the holidays, must be a comeback!!!!!
-Last year my console of choice sold like shit, despite having some big titles on it but this year it will sell 3X that because I has some big titles also this year
-We are comparing home console sales, better bring an handheld to the argument
-We are comparing home console sales, better talk about profit
-We are talking about home console sales this gen, better bring out last gen sales
-Third party games suck ass,they are just shooters and grey brown, while my console of choice got some whimsical amazing games with colors and peace
-I only buy my console of choice of first party games, WHY THE FUCK WON'T THIRD PARTIES SUPPORT MY CONSOLE OF CHOICE!!!

-My console of choice developers made something that was already available somewhere else, How innovative of them!!!!

-Internet capabilities will up my console of choice power by 600%

-Paying for online gaming is dumb lol, unless I am paying also

-Look at that stack of my console of choice available at any major retailers that proves my console of choice is doing better than yours.

-No console ever sold as bad as my console of choice but if I wish enough the competition might start doing just as bad

-I hope the Industry collapse

-Hahaha, you are winning the argument, while I am not even mad, I better switch the conversation about your bad syntax or I might just say '' enjoy argumenting on the Interwebs while I enjoy games on my console of choice''

-HYPE, HYPE,HYPE a game to death, when the game fails to deliver complain about the lack of hype for that said game.

-Somebody posted something bad about my company of choice, those damn Sony fanboys!!



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.
