Not having time is something that happens in life regardless. :/


Not if you get a nice girl that works hard and finances your staying at home to play games.


Well the's always the exception I guess.

Honestly when I have kids of my own, i want them to play beautiful stories like tlou and other games like it so they can learn something from it. I won't feed them Nintendo games.

So you want to feed your kids with heavy stories, tension, blood and violence, instead of colorful, positive, very fun games without blood and violence!?

OK, then. :)

I never needed bringing back as I always was mature enough to not be insecure about enjoying "immature" games.

If the game was mechanically balanced with a difficulty curve or has some sort of complexity, then even core gamers can enjoy it regardless of how it looks. However personally I prefer games that provide context to what I'm doing, and these types of games are usually lacking in that department. That's why my experience with Zelda games, for an example, is more memorable than my experience my mario games. 


If you can find context to what you do in a CoD game, then I am glad I dont know you.

 

I dont like Mario games so i must be a COD Dudebro right?

 

sigh...

Or, if you're like most people who jumped from Nintendo, you simply found games on other systems you had more fun playing.  Like it or not, it's really that simple.

That people have to attack that choice to justify what they play actually screams insecurity.  Linking maturity to what video-game console a person plays on nothing but a very poor, very amusing rationalization.

He didnt said he bored by Nintendo he said: "Sony’s PlayStation - and its subsequent PS2 - stole me away from Nintendo with its allure of sport sims, Final Fantasy, and Crash Bandicoot. And when Microsoft came into the fray, I confidently wrote off Nintendo as one of those childish things I put behind me in lieu of more “mature” first-person shooters and online gaming."

If he again want some more mature first-person shooters, he can just turn on his XboxOne. ;)

And what after that, if again Nintendo steal him back with new console and games from PS4 or XboxOne!?

I don't see your point, he will play whatever he wants to play.
