Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Did Nintendo screw us?

ookaze on 19 February 2008

@Onyxmeth:

You don't understand what quality control is. Go back to learn something about it before going back and erasing all the nonsense you've written.

Nintendo is not the 3rd parties, so no, Nintendo didn't screw us, unless you think their games screwed you.

Nintendo is not responsible for the 3rd parties games. When any 3rd party can't make a game of the value of the last best games on PS2, on the Wii, they are the only one to blame, not Nintendo.

I understand you believe Wii is a fad. Bravo on another way to spit that nonsense.

Try to focus your mind : if there is an entity to blame, that's the 3rd parties. How come the Wii haters are never able to put the blame on 3rd parties, when they are the one obviously lacking ?

I say the merger are not enough, some have to bite the dust for people to understand where the problem comes from.

Oh, that reminds me of something. Shovelware on consoles in general has never, ever, ever been as bad as the Atari ET game. That could be said to be the mother of all shovelware, and is often cited as the straw that broke the Atari camel's back and sent it careening into oblivion. I think that's giving the game a bit to much (dis)credit, but it is definitely awful. Certainly much worse than anything being put on any system these days.
 Ah, that was before my time, but I remember hearing about that infamous game, from older gamers. Just for the heck of it, I wanna play it, and see how bad it actually was for myself.

In the nes days nintendo limited the number of titles that each developer could release on the platform per year, and they weeded out those that weren't up to standards.

 

"During the NES era, Nintendo maintained exclusive control over titles released for the system—the company had to approve every game, each third-party developer could only release up to five games per year, those games could not be released on another console within two years, and Nintendo was the exclusive manufacturer and supplier of NES cartridges."   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Nintendo_Entertainment_System

I believe most non-Wii-fanatics are aware of this issue. But with games like Carnival and other mini-games with cute avator designs and empty stories selling like hotcakes. Do you really blame developers to design those low production cost games with low risk and high return?

Yes Wii will win this Gen, and no, I am most likely won't buy any mini-games (if I do end up getting a Wii)

 

You know, if you guys want to stop getting shot down for posting anti-nintendo comments, you really need to stop acting like 2 year olds. Look back at the posts in this thread. Do you know what I see? A bunch of anti-nintendo posters spewing bull-s**t and acting like total dicks, along with a couple of people being reasonable. I don't see any rabid drooling nintendo fans coming to steal your children. If you don't want to be treated like children, stop acting like one.

 See! did I call it or What? under 10 minutes!

Instead of sticking to the topic, this is the treatment you will get. But once or twice, you will get something quite funny. ;)

 Welcome to VGC, btw.

@Kingofwale: Stop egging people on. You should just report the post and move on. You shouldn't be involving yourself in that kind of stuff.

As for the thread, we get this kind of stuff about each system. It's not a big deal, people feel they need their voice heard as though it'll change what other people think or maybe people will help change their mind. Enjoy each system for their games, don't take things personal.



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

I have a gut instinct that the original post was plagiarized from somewhere, or it was a previous work that was recycled. I am seriously recalling reading this exact same post at some previous point. I would ask is anyone else getting this strange sensation?

I would like to think I have a good recollection of previous discussions on these forums. Decent enough to recognize a post I have read before.

You brought it on yourself, you can't exactly whine about being attacked when you're basically holding up a sign that says "Hey everybody, I'm jerkoff! Flame me!"

Interesting read. Wii has one of the worst third party line-ups in terms of quality I've ever seen. Third party's are mainly to blame but they'll keep doing what they're doing, profitable shovelware. Nintendo won't enforce any standards because non-gamers, who I think are at least 60% nintendo's business won't know better or care and they won't want to upset third party's.
