Forums - Gaming Discussion - Nintendo makes better video games than everyone else

Nice, by that definition Sony makes the best home consoles since the PS+PS2+PS3 have combined easily outsold all Nintendo consoles put together and the Xbox+360 put together as well. After all people wouldn't ever pay money for an inferior machine. :D

Grand Theft Auto and Fallout never sold on a Nintendo system, this is a troll thread.

Also sales =/= quality, Most of Nintendo's best games typically sell around 1 million units (e.g. XenoBlade & Fire Emblem). I disagree with you when you think New Super Mario Bros Wii is better then anything half decent.



What is with all the hate? Don't read GamrReview Articles. Contact me to ADD games to the Database

Didn't want to read four pages of pointless attacks on OP... but I thought I'd toss in that in the top ten of all time games by sales... all are Nintendo. Top 20? Almost all are Nintendo.

EA, Activision, etc are all very large publishers. They publish games on literally every console known to mankind (except Wii U currently) and yet they still publish fewer titles in terms of sales than Nintendo who only ever really has two platforms its creating content for.

Regardless if your personal flavor is not Nintendo kool-aid.. you cannot deny that Nintendo isn't the best game creator that has ever existed by simply looking at raw numbers. Which is really the only subjective way you an compare.

If only I knew the names of those games, I would buy a WiiU.

And please no Mario/pokemon/zelda remakes/monkey games I'm disgusted with all those.

Fixed a couple there.

Best RPG?  Which is?  Not Pokemon of course because Pokemon was not developed by Nintendo, Game Freak is not Nintendo and exclusives are not always developed by Nintendo.

Wow.  You are not much of an RPG fan if you haven't heard of Xenoblade, the best and best rated RPG of last gen.  Among the very best games in fact.

Not an RPG fan but of course I've heard of it.  It sold less than a million, was not the best selling RPG of it's generation, and was not made by Nintendo, so you'll excuse my confusion when you said Nintendo made the best RPG's.

Wow, so making one outstanding game, inbetween a whole lot of mediocre ones is already enough to become the best RPG developer in the industry, good to know.
