Why I Haven't Owned A Nintendo Console Since The N64 Days

What are you on about?

You what now?

PS1>N64

PS2>Gamecube

PS3>Wii

PS4>Wii U

Come at me, sheep.

Ok, i get it now you just came with a troll post because you have nothing to say....

Perhaps you should remember that sometimes silence is golden.

i never had the PS1, so i can't comment on that, but N64 was a fantastic console

Nintendo are just all over the place. I would LOVE to own a Nintendo again - the problem is, to play all of the titles I would want to, I would need to buy multiple platforms, at least I think I would, which is part of the problem the gaming community has. I would happily fork out big bucks on a Nintendo console with DS/Wii/whatever else they have compatibility. The WiiU was a debacle (I was firmly among the "so what exactly is it?" crowd on it's release), and there have been so many versions of the DS with or without wifi, with a big screen, with no 3D, with 3D and a big screen but no wifi or whatever the former gaming giant only confuses the hell out of parents now looking to buy for their kids, and casual gamers are generally lost.

New console, with new Mario title, bundled. New Zelda title release separately, with a new Metroid, and a slot for DS titles. I would buy that day one.

lol you're a hypocrite if you think your posts make any sense. Since you obviously know nothing about Nintendo games, you should take your own advice.

What are you on?

And hypocrite? did you just hear the word and thought hey that sounds cool, because in this context it makes no sense what so ever. And as to Nintendo games, are you really that fanboyish?

But next time a small advice , This is not System wars where fanboy arguments are enough and you can write shit like you do, so try to come up with arguments.

Not System Wars eh? Exactly. So you should leave your fanboyisms for that board and not try to talk about games and systems you're unfamiliar with. You're the one making stupid claims about Nintendo and their games that simply aren't true, so here's a hint: YOU'RE THE FANBOY in this conversation. Get a clue.

Try knowing what you're talking about before typing the nonsense you do. Maybe you can learn from your idiotic mistakes and become a better poster in the future. Good luck with that.

So true. There are gamers and then there are fanboys who like brands instead of games.

Again what are you talking about? you keep trying to make this so personal and come up with lame attempts to attack my knowledge of games.

Unless you can come up with something else than "hoho i am a Nintendo Fanboi and they make the best games evvvvvaaaaar, and anyone who cant see it is a moron who doesnt know Nintendo" I think you need to jump back into systemwars.

You can disagree with the argument that Nintendo stick to their well known ip´s but proof is the pudding.

And there is a reason why Nintendo particular with the WiiU has failed so miserably and has a dead console on their hands.

@Jacanuk: "what are you on about" is not a proper comeback. It signifies that you have no argument and your debating skills are trash. Citing sales is absolute proof of this.

You make disingenuous statements, get called out on it and say "what you talking about?" doesn't cut it guy. To be honest I think you're perfect for System Wars, not only because you keep bringing it up but also because your level of dialog fits in with that low brow crowd fittingly.

You are a funny little troll. You have made zero attempt at "calling anything out" all you have done is make personal attacks and just made yourself look like a fool.

And you might want to learn to look towards your own dialogue , because your debate skills is the same as i would expect of a toddler who just learned to say mom and dad.

Wii U has Wii backwards compatibility, and you can get GBA, DS, N64, SNES, NES games on the eshop considerably cheaper than the prices of the physical games. But yeah, I can understand it if people aren't comfy in buying multiple systems for only a few games.

Whatever floats your boat. I think Nintendo consoles are essential every generation. If I had to skip out on a console it would be a Microsoft console.

The only time i didn't skip out on MS was last gen because PS3 cost like 1000 bucks to get

I bought a Xbox and a Xbox 360, and both were consoles that were ridden with hardware issues and games that were eventually ported to other consoles or PC. It was exciting to have those exclusive games that gave the console worth in the beginning, but as time went on I felt that it was money wasted because I previously had other hardware perfectly capable of running all but a handful of games.

And you're the judge and jury to be able to call me that? I've been here for 10 years talking about games i don't have to defend myself towards the likes of you.

What do you expect to happen when you put your "blog" on a gaming forum to boldly declare you're a fanboy?

Well, unless you were into online and hate the mini-disc and/or the controller with a burning passion, but not like the former matters these days for those consoles (so, sharper graphics aside playing TS3 on GC is about the same on PS2 now).

You're a troll right? Cause not liking a certain console doesn't make you a fanboy... I don't think you know what the word means

"a certain console" would only cover one generation, yet you talk of three of them. Now who's the troll?

nintendo has pretty much hinged itself on whether you're a fan of its IP's or not. since their systems, for a long while, haven't had online, third parties and hardware going for it.

japan is denser and more urban throughout so it makes sense.

@The_Last_Ride:

I hear where you're coming from but some of that has to do with the 2d to 3d transitional period. There was no such thing as not taking a risk back then and developers were completely unknowing as to what gamers would actually cater to. But skipping the Gamecube and NOT buying a backwards compatible Wii when they were $140? Yikes.

You are 100% correct Ride

CleanB is one of those kids who love to troll forums and most likely even make new accounts to back his statements up.

A Wii doesn't cost that little here. It still costs over 200 bucks here
