Forums - Gaming - Should Shiggy retire since he lost touch with the gamers

cyberninja45 on 22 March 2014

Nope.
The people that should retire are those responsible for:

The wiiU gamepad as the focus of the console
The lack of marketing,
The killing off of the wii without proper transition to the wiiU,
The idiot who decided to partner with EA initially,
The one's who thought it was a good idea to not invest in more first and second party studios because they could gain 3rd party support.

Those are the reasons why Nintendo is in trouble right now.

Focus group testing gave us Fuse. Miyamoto testing gave us Pikmin. I don't agree with your reasoning in the OP.

Otherwise, I don't really know enough about the situation to call for his retirement.


I didnt knew that.

Miyamoto does not use focus groups. Instead, Miyamoto figures out if a game is fun for himself.


Miyamoto has said several times that he commonly watches other people (who are unrelated to the project) playing the game he's working on, and observes their reaction. So your statement is wrong..



Yep.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Minus a few screw-ups ( Sticker Star being a disaster even if it wasn't his fault 100% and Star Fox Adventures ending up being a Zelda clone), Miyamoto is a great developer that shouldn't retire yet. After all, games like Pikmin 3 show that he is still able to make great games.

is he still able to make great games or is he able to rehash old stuff?
