Forums - Nintendo Discussion - "Nintendo of America needs to STFU"

sparkit34 on 17 August 2009

I just read the article for the second time.

Here's a summary of what i read:

"I don't like casual games. I don't like the Wii. I ripped off Nintendo by selling my second hand Wii for above market price. And, now, even though i do not even own a Wii, it pisses me off that Nintendo is not making games that I like. I cannot believe that Nintendo dares show their face in public after that abismal E3 2008 where they announced two games that i really don't like(that sold a pathetic 2.6 and 3.2 million copies) and the other game i really dislike (that will end up selling over 20million copies). But now all of a sudden when they announce a sequel to a hugely successful, critically acclaimed game that i find no more than average, everyone forgives them.
I cannot believe that Nintendo can be so bloody arrogant!!!"

Was that about right?

You do not decide what quality is. Many people would not consider the HD console libraries to be quality.

But anyways, perhaps another example is needed: The Wii innovated in gameplay. The HD consoles innovated in media functions on consoles. The Wii is clearly more about the games. I really thought that this is a commonly accepted fact. Sadly I was wrong.

Yeah, I bet it really makes you sad when people don't love the wii like you do. But hey, now I am starting to get you! When Natal comes out you will start giving MS some love since it is more "innovative" than the wiimote. Cool.

I don't decide but the minority of the people who bought current gen consoles will? (48,9%?) How about metascores?

Guess what? Many people would not consider wii library to be quality.

Natal is only about the hardware so far, the Wiimote was from day one about the software that could implement it. As I said the Wii is more about the games.

Many people would consider it quality too, so you saying what is quality and what is not isn't convincing. And looking at software sold, we reach the same conclusion again. Wii is more about the games than the PS lites.

Oh well. Even counting wii sports, wii has sold less software than those "pc lites" you keep ranting about. Looks like more people think that HD consoles are quality so by your logic that is a fact. Too bad for you.

Wii fit says hello.

 

Grow up kid, all your "points" are based on your own point of view, and unless you have become the fore-front of human instrumentality those are utterly neglidgable.

Stop bitching about what console the person next to you is using and play your favorite game.

Actually my points are based on facts. HD consoles have sold more than wii. They have sold more software than wii. HD consoles have better metascores than wii.

It is pretty amusing that you find me the one bitching about something and not the other guy. Do you happen to be a wii owner perhaps?

Wow, are you honestly going to tell me that you are supporting your arguments with "facts" from metacritic?

 

HD consoles sell more than the wii? So the HD consoles are now one single unit that exists in harmony witin itself, despite the nonsensical hatred the 360 and PS3 crowd have for one another? Stop pulling things out of your ass, you have nothing more than an opinion, and for some God-forsaken reason you feel the utmost nessecity to shove that in to everyones face.

Kid, it's perfectly fine for you to have your own beliefs, but the second you get on that soap-box and preach them you become the very same filth that has destroyed any chance for gamers to have a positive image from the outside looking in.

"That part is pretty easy. Wii has less good games than HD-consoles."

Having more games =|= being a better gaming machine (see Xbox vs Playstation 2). And "good" is subjective, so that's an invalid comment.

So.. umm. Xbox was better than ps2? I guess if you are talking about hw. Then HD consoles are better than the wii.

What makes a better gaming machine if not the games??

I wasn't referring to specs.

And your sig doesn't give you cred on which system has the better games. In fact, I'm this close to reporting you for trolling.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Even as a joke, that's... not much of a joke.

From the gist of this article and other articles he's written about other companies... it sounds like he just likes to complain. Even worse is the complaints are poorly organized and compiled with no basis. It's almost like he is told to bitch like a 13 yr old girl on the most biased front ever to mock fanboys who actually are serious when things like this come out.

Maybe he is being serious on all those articles but I wouldn't want to be the guy to have to admit to being serious about writing those haha.

For just this article, there is no basis, no facts, no reasons, and of course no analytical thought. Just a baseless, thoughtless rant that could have been copied and pasted with the word Nintendo replacing something else. Same with all of his articles really. That we are even giving this kinda thing attention is what I find the most disturbing.

Why are you so upset and why you keep calling me a kid? Does that make you feel better about yourself?

Pulling things out of my ass.. oh. I was not the one who lumped the consoles together. It was that other guy who talked about PC lites or something. Facts are facts. I don't really care if 360/PS3 fanboys keep fighting, those consoles have very similar libraries.

Do you have a better source for measuring quality? Sales? HD wins. What else do you have?

If sales measured quality then Final fantasy 6 is one of the worst GBA games ever made is one of the single worst games ever made

 

And I refer to you as a child because of you immature and crude rebuttals, remarks and general lack of respect, all of which you hav managed to display with pride in the quoted text.

To further prove my point, your lodgic says that the entirety of the high-school musical series is a groundbreaking epic that trancsends all grenres, and you agree with that then I flat out pity you son.
