look at twilight princess and brawl, getting delayed for YEARS.It makes you wonder how hard the game designers at nintendo actually work. Seriously, "Due to delays in the completion of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, we've had to change the release date of the game to Sunday, March 9th."THE GAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN ALREADY COMPLETED. Your telling me they aren't even done the game with the years they have done on it. This is rediclous, do nintendo gamedesignersactually work or do they just sit on their ass all day?

Twilight Princess was delayed to match the Wii's launch.

Perhaps you should read up on the subject before making a topic next time?

wow your upset over aone month delay, are you even listening to yourself?

Play super mario galaxy, metroid prime 3, twilight princess -- ask yourself this: Are they of top quality?
If yes, then you have your answer as to whether or not they work 'hard' on their games.

i think the japanese team is working hard but the noa team isnt. they should have been localizing the game while the game was still neing made. this month delay has to be for debugging or localizing. not for any extra content.

Well it seems like you are not familiar with Nintendos products. They put alot of polish into all ther big games and that takes time, also Brawl is adding alot of new things that they have never done before. I really think they delayed it to add a mic for online play.

No, Nintendo just sits around eating donuts while Microsoft secretly makes their games.

I thought they rented the elves off of Santa the other 364 days of the year.

I agree, Nintendo should follow the example of devs that created such hits like Anubis II and Ninjabreadman and release their games quickly and on time.

you DO know they are working to get the online to work right, right? if they felt that the game isnt ready then dammit it isnt ready! if they released it on Dec 3, EVERYBODY wouldve sad "damn, if they only delayed it a little bit they wouldve gotten it perfect!" but sadly in this hypocritical world in which we live in, nintendo is damned if they do and damned if they dont. if they dont delay it, people want it delayed to improve it. if its delayed, people complain that its delayed! people should just quit whining and stay patient! and its obvious that they dont sit on their asses all day because they have a crap load of content in the game (if you happen to notice which it seems you havent)

yeah right
maybe you should go and show 'em how to work hard...
i mean
if they didn't work that hard
then their games wouldn't be that GOOD
and
if the game will be that good, then the waiting is well worth

MGS4 is delayed... so
does that means that the devs aren't working that hard neither?

hey!
i've already found the solution for these things

maybe nintendo should release an incomplete version for those (few) who want to play it first
or heck! maybe they can release games the day they announces them
with working tittles and all!!


wouldn't be that so freaking awesome?

that way nobody would complain (at least refering to delays)

Ive noticed that all good game developers will worry more about how ready the game is than the release date. Blizzard does the same thing and all of their games that ive played (most of them) are fantastic and were worth the etra wait if there was one.

If you think it's that easy, why don't you start your own company and show us all how to do it.

Gaming development is h3ll! Working day and night, sleeping at work around deadlines, sweaty offices and boring routines to get that tiny bit further in making things enjoyable rather then adding the things You want to add.
These aren't the games we used to play alike boardgames, they are now making living dreams, worlds to spend some of Your lifetime in.

Well, the good thing about SSBB being delayed is that we know that they are putting as much as they can into it to perfect it.

Is it really SO upsetting when a game gets delayed? It's the nature of the beast. You can either get your game early or you can get it done right. It happens in the movie and music industries too. Everywhere in mainstream media, creative projects get delayed so they can be done right. Have you ever seen the work that game designers do behind the curtain? It's crazy. It's crazy hours andcrazy deadlines. Of course they work hard. Sorry that you have to wait a couple extra weeks for your game, but you'd be crying just as much if it came out on timeand was full of flaws.

Agreed. Those are some quality games. Better than that crap Nintendo has been spewing out with Mario and Zelda? Psh, please I want some real games, not an elf boy on a boat and some italian lardo floating through space.

1. Errors occur that are not the dev's fault.

2. Would you prefer a buggy, twitchy, and all around worse game?

3. More content is a good thing.

I know the news are disappointing, but when you play the game, maybe you'll realize that the long wait was worth it.
