You show everyone how blind you are by saying only little kids buy Nintendo games. Every Nintendo fan knows that every sequel that gets released is completely another game, only misinformed, angry, insecure and blind fanboys will say the opposite. Even if the game is on its 6th or 7th sequel, they are HIGH quality games. Do people care if the Star Wars movie coming is the 7th in the series? Fucking NO, they know that they are quality movies and thats all it counts. And Nintendo innovates with new IPs every generation, in fact this Gen is on pace of getting more new IP's (DS + Wii) than the previous with GC + GBA. |
No i don't 'fail' because you say so, although your maturity does fail. Sony has more famous franchises in number and gran turismo is as popular as zelda and mario. I never said little kids are the only people who buy nintendo games, you need to learn how to read, what i said was nintendo games appeal to little kids, big difference, and these kids have never played a zelda or mario before so they are not jaded, just like the nintendo fanboys aren't jaded but some gamers who don't arent blind fanboys and some gamers who arent little kids are fed up of the same old games being rehashed by nintendo and want some new games. |
Does this mean you don't buy any Sony IP sequels? Sounds to me like you're arguing against your own argument. Contradiction, irony, etc.... |
Yeah...accept im not arguing against my own point. Playing the same rehashed game time after time and generation after generation makes you jaded, nintendo very rarely offer a new traditional ip to play instead of the same old rehashed games where as sony do offer me something else, i can take a break and play the other new ip's sony offer me and then after missing an iteration or two of a franchise come back to it several years later without having to cut back on the number of games i play, if i don't play the same old whored out franchises on my wii then their are no other nintendo alternatives. Here's just a little example of where i am with nintendo's and sony's franchises that i have played more than 1 version of.
sony:
God of war - Played both god of war 1 and 2, the first one was great but the second one was just more of the same and finishing it was quite boring. If god of war 3 is more of the same then i won't be buying it.
The getaway - Both versions were average games and the second one offered nothing significantly new and again unless the 3rd version of the game is significantly improved over what is already their and offers me new things to do then i won't be buying the 3rd one.
Gran turismo - The first one i owned was gran turismo 3 and that game is so huge i still hadn't finished by the time gt4 prolugue and gt4 the full game were released. Gt4 was just a rehash of 3 with more cars and better graphics and it failed to have online so i didn't buy it. I brought gt5 prolugue to see what was new and the answer is not alot. Unless gt5 the full game has a decent online side to it and realistic damage modelling then i won't be buying it.
Nintendo:
Zelda - I've completed a link to the past, the ocarina of time, the majoras mask and the windwaker. The jump from 2d to 3d was great and added so many new things to the game. The 3 day time mechanic of majoras mask made the game interesting and it didnt feel like i was just playing the same game again, but by the time i got to the windwaker it was just the same old game with a new art style and water. I started playing the twilight princess but after an hour i just couldn't be bothered because it was just yet another rehash.
Mario kart - I've played all the console versions of the game and the latest one was not only just more of the same in terms of gameplay but alot of the levels are taken straight from double dash, i've already sold it and unless mario kart has some major changes done to it i won't be playing another mario kart for a good 5 to 10 years.
Metroid prime - The first 2 games i loved but the third one was just the same game again but with motion controls, im not jaded yet with the game but unless the next game is something new then i won't be buying it.
Mario - mario galaxy was my 4th mario game and after super mario sunshine i was already jaded and galaxy didnt do anything to change that. I might come back to mario galaxy at the end of the generation.
Smash brothers - one was great, the second one was just a cash in and the third one i only brought because it had online which isn't anything spectacular. The gameplay and things that are worthwhile that you can do in the game have barely changed.
So whilst i've been jaded with the above games what new ip's have sony created that interested me and i brought:
Killzone
Shadow of the Colossus
Motorstorm
Heavenly Sword
Uncharted: Drakes Fortune
Nintendo games:
None
