Lol, I found the thread :: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=175680&page=1 And the posts involved :: |
That thread wasnt about Nintendo having the best games. It was a guy who really hated the Wii and felt the need to make a thread about it. I didnt see you compare any games. You just said that you agreed that it was a fad...

It is almost funny to see in the same thread people defending that you can't count X/Y as two games, but at the same time Nintendo uses this to force people to buy both. Those are contradictory statements. If the games are so alike, than people would never feel the need to buy both. If people do feel the need to buy both, than they can be counted as different games. I disagree with this theory of forcing people to buy two games. I got Pokemon X last year and never felt the need to get Y. All the pokemon players i know are in the same situation. Why would anyone need both versions when you can trade pokemons by the GTS? It makes no sense. While there is surely some players who do that, it is a minority. That said, having two versions is a smart marketing decision. It encourage players to look out for other players, creating a community around the game and that helps not only the sales but also the longevity of the game. It is a very good strategy and without prejudice to anyone.
It is different, let's say, than the Oracle games. While both were great and different, you had to have both in order to play the true ending. Than again, those games were very different in dungeons, bosses, weapons and main mecanic. |
well i personally never had a gripe with the original list from nintendo... sure i think its disengenuous and ultimately highly flawed but we know that this is standard fair for advertising so on that front i dont really care
so people are definitely justified in going out and buying the same game in slightly different packaging three times; its absolutely up to them but i take issue with nintendo fans defending this while simultaneously calling additional content added to other games anticonsumer
and no i'm sorry but i don't buy the point about it being for interaction or building a community or whatever and the reason for that is simply that there is a vast amount of other games with multiplayer features that still manage to build communities without resorting to this
ultimately what is done is that some content is stripped away and locked into the individual versions so that people will be encouraged to buy all three

I think it is stupid to count Pokemon X and Y separately, but it was Metacritic who did that. Also - what does it change? So it is 18 vs. 8. Wow.

Actually everybody can trade with everybody, but nobody would trade if all would be in the same version.

Which favor would that be?
| outlawauron said: Btw, there's some additional criteria at work. Vita alone has 9 games with 85 meta and 8.5+ user score (really should be 10 since Vita has a better version of Virtue's Last Reward + no game breaking bugs). Which I'm now thinking was purposed excluded in the comparison. |
As far as I can see, Vita is included. Virtue's Last Reward is better on 3DS, it is designed for the system. I have it for 3DS, my friend for Vita, and he complains that in some cases it is difficult to hit get the objects without a stylus. That's the reason the metacritic-score is below 85 for the Vita-version. It doesn't work as good as the 3DS version.

They talked about sales then. |
Why did they stop doing that? Like i said moving goals is popular these days..
Good job Nintendo, you make great games. If only people would buy them :(.
Not sure how I feel putting pokemon X and Y seperate and bayonetta 1 in there.
Other than that, it is what it is.
