You were never a fan of Nintendo if a series like Animal Crossing would destroy your faith in the company that created Zelda, Mario, Metroid, etc.

Come on, now... Those are great games.  Nintendo started down the quick-buck path with MK:Wii.  Animal Crossing is a complete ripoff, though.  I have a LOT of hourse in Animal Crossing on the 'cube and DS... I expected something a bit more, well, innovative from Nintendo of all companies.  Hell, all the town officials are the same exact animals right down to the gate guards.  If you aren't offended by a blatant ripoff, well, enjoy your next ones...  Regardless, I'm on the sideline for the duration.  Something new is going to have to come along that blows doors off -- like SMG -- to get me to buy another Nintendo title. 

Keep in mind this is FIRST PARTY.  I'd understand if it was a 3rd party ripoff, but from Nintendo themselves?  I assumed, given the long delay to deliver the game since the Wii was launched that it was "in development" and would be a very new experience.  Reality is that they were just timing it for the best sales opportunity and major development never really happened.  This was a cobbled together version of AC that borrowed from the 'Cube and DS versions and doesn't really do anything to make the series fresh again.

And don't even try to lecture me on being a true Nintendo Fan.  I have had every Nintendo console and handheld with the exception of the virtual boy.  I've played and finished so many games on Nintendo platforms that I lost track a long time ago.  I bought a Wii before I ever even considered the 360 and PS3 and was a staunch defender of gameplay over graphics.  With this latest iteration of AC, however, both gameplay AND graphics went out of the window.  What's left?  A 6 year old game that has be relabeled to catch a few million suckers.

 

There's always Pikmin remade for the Wii. Oh, wait..

I can't wait.

 


I beat the original, on the Gamecube, which you can also play on the Wii...

Dude, your Mario Kart rants are completely wrong.

It has frigging online! What the f are you saying? It's the best MK since the SNES game. More characters, more vehicles (motorbikes), more tracks than in any MK before and you can have flawless 12 player online experience.

Besides that Nintendo gave me an amazing 48 chapters long Fire Emblem, a brilliant Mario, a very good Zelda, a Smash Bros filled with pure fanservice...
What more can you possibly want? Really? If this is another case of raising the bar for Nintendo; good luck, I guess they won't miss you.

mario kart wii is THE best mario kart game. it is the best balance as far a the skill vrs. luck thing, GREAT tracks, online, Wheel, and so much more. It is better than the original. The only thing I can think of you could even complain about is the graphics... yes the are not HD.

Nintendo milks one game and you flip?

I think you never were a true nintendo fan. 1) I was pissed when I saw this years 2008 holiday lineup, but I can get over it there are plenty of games on the DS/ PS3 to keep me more than busy.

2) Nintendo has been on fire lately. They really have not dropped one turd YET this gen.

SMG is already considered classic material, Brawl was amazing, Kart was the best Kart, FE was really good, MP3 was better than 2, the only game they somewhat dropped the ball on was SPM.... But that is still a good game.

 

1) Yes, I was pissed, too. And you are doing the same... Using your PS3 as a standby to fill the gap.

2) Wii Music says, "Hi".

I'll give you that MK:Wii has some neat new stuff, but the skill vs. luck think is a bit lopsided to the luck side. That said, again, MK:Wii could have stood to see more "new" as well. The motion controls aren't exactly "great" and everyone I know that plays the game has gone back to using the 'chuck....

yes, there is not enough core material on the Wii to satisfy someone with hardcore taste.

Actually Wiimusic is very good from what I hear. It is just the negative hype from IGN and such getting you down on it. Also, MK is the best MK game for a skilled played since SMK. It has less luck involved than DD and MK64(the worst imo). Dont forget the bike, they change up the gameplay quite a bit without being unbalanced. The Wheel is terrible for any heritage MK player... It is for the new people to the series, I see alot of people that are new to gaming liking the Wii wheel the best. Also the game works quite well using the wiimote and nunchuck, my bro who has played all MK too, actually likes that over the GC and Classic controller.

I say, give em more time. For me, if they jack up Zelda... I am out. They Nailed Brawl, FE, and SMG, so I have alot of hope (plus they have been developing the game for like 2 years already, and we are a minumum of 1 year away....)

 

 

I don't think there is ANY way Nintendo would make that mistake... If they do, however, there are going to be a massive number of Nintendo loyal that ponder their faith in all things Nintendo...

Naw, if Nintendo fucked up Zelda I'd just keep myself busy with the 99% of their amazingly perfect games that never let me down.

 

And well, see you later.  You were never a Nintendo fan anyway if you didn't have a Virtual Boy.

I love Nintendo games, but I have just been burned for the last time.  I was somewhat disappointed with MK Wii as I didn't feel like there was much new to the game.  I felt like Nintendo milked the series for a quick buck.  Super Mario Galaxy on the other hand was brilliant.

Today, I bought Animal Crossing: City Folk.  I was dumbfounded as the game loaded.  The graphics are the same.  Sound effects are largely borrowed from the first series.  Pretty much everything is a just a port from the 'cube version with very little innovation.  The graphics are pretty much identical to the gamecube version... There is so little new here that one who is not well versed in Animal Crossing could easily watch a player for 20 minutes and think they were watching the gamecube version.

Shame on Nintendo for not really pushing the Wii hardware and adding some signficant improvement to the series.  I've been burned for the Last time.  I've got all three consoles and will, from this point forward, focus 100% of my attention on the 360 and PS3.  Nintendo, until now, has been my favorite overall Video Game company because of the quality of their titles.  Today, they lost a huge fan.  Permanently.

you should of read some reviews before buying Nintendo games. Other then that I agree with you.

You're right, Nintendo games have lately been really dissapointing. Not to talk about Wii games made by 3rd party developers.



Play my LittleBigPlanet level: Mystic Runner. Thanks!

Is this topic for real? blaming Nintendo for releasing same things over and over again?? haha now that is funny.

Good riddance I say. I really dont know what all this public crying and bitching is about. Is it manly? no. I thought you like to be seen as manly while playing manly games that make your manhood shine in the sea of manliness.

So why this girlish bitching and moaning? Go get a pink DS with Nintendogs.

Heh, once kn starts this thread, he's going to be severely criticised and no amount of defending himself can save him.

But still, this means one less plastic fan of Nintendo. And plastic fans are meant to desert their sports team as soon as it fails to win!
