I wonder why none of these companies hired you. Probably because you declined to stay unbiased on VGC.

I rewrote the OP, fyi. But, what do you mean "declined to stay unbiased"? Is there something in the OP that's inaccurate?

(And yeah, they don't hire me, they just steal my ideas instead)

No worry, it was just a general thing.

What I meant was that your ideas are so great that they should hire you but you would've declined because you want to stay unbiased for the forum.

I mean who would believe anything from you if you worked for one of the big 3 ;)

LOL haha i get it now. (they should invite me to e3 though...what would prof do???) The wording caught a different meaning. But hey...maybe I do work for someone

Did you see the last idea they stole? It was my idea for Littlebigplanet hub that I wrote like a year ago. Completely stole it. (though they should've taken it a step further like I advocated) Bastards!

Yep they steal ideas from me too all the time.

Just like I said in 2008 that a sequel to Mirror's Edge would be nice. And BAM, 5 years later they suddenly announce it.

Coincidence? I think not.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Exciting read. I agree with many of your points. It's nice to see someone not going bananas with crazy and unrealistic predictions.

What the heck prof!

 

EDIT: As much as I hate to admit this (as a 360 owner), yeah. They shouldn't focus on the 360, at all.

haha! What the heck, what?

They just need to stop with the cross-gen titles. Like, yeah, I get it. 360 makes them profit...but if all you're going to do is look at the bottom line you are going to really fuck over your investment in xb1. No cross-gen titles like titanfall. That was such a mistake. And no 360 price drops! Ever. Never again. Discontinue the cheap version also. If you're going to sell 360's might as well make a huge profit on each one, and funnel it to xb1 price and software control.

Also, sell the kinect 2 for 150+. This adds value to the bundled system to create demand.

Good write. But I'd say the key for Nintendo is NOT to show more of the classic stuff. They need a new IP, or a new take on an old IP (think Super Mario Galaxy) to get people energized about their brand.

I remember that! holy shit!

There's only 1 key to "winning" E3: Be the company that has the most fanboys in attendance or has the most fanboys with good internet speed.

The thing is, with the sales the console is at, with the price, your best bet for sales is with the core audience. Like, I'm shopping around right now as well just for mk8 and smash. This will be my second wiiU. If nintendo can push out the classic core, they'll get their foot in the door to lower production costs. There are quite a few measures, something like I mentioned in the op, and yeah, I totally agree with your suggestion about looking at things differently (like hyrule warriors).

dont announce DRM like its going to benefit the consumer and show and talk games, no shitty performance by a crappy "artist", or showing off how we can watch wheel of fortune on a xbo.
