I do not understand why there are so many people that want Nintendo to outright fail. I would like someone to explain that to me.

They want Nintendo to be like Sega and make games on Sony and MS's systems. Me personally, I'd rather see Ninty leave gaming before that happens.

Agreed. If Nintendo exists the hardware business (which it will not), I want all traces of Nintendo IPs to be completely wiped out and lost to oblivion.

It's only fitting for some of the greatest IPs in video game history to go out with a bang rather than a whimper.

But you can play Mario kart and Super mario on the DS and Wii.....no big difference.AtariKidX
And you can play Uncharted, LittleBigPlanet and God of War on the PS3... no big difference.

The second circle pad accessory is starting to grow on me, it looks very ergonomic and will be useful for games. I think it's cool that it adds triggers, and it won't use up the 3DS battery.

BTW circle pads are superior to analog IMO

Same here. The attachment looks ugly but the newest pics shows that while it may not be pretty it actually looks comfortable to hold. Still waiting for that redesign with the 2nd stick built in tho.

Wait what? So people want Nintendo games to be 3rd party yet hate them at the same time?

I guess people are just jealous that they can't play Nintendo games on their vastly superior hardware.

Nobody really hates Nintendo...they just hate that they can't get all their portable games on one consolidated platform, like the Game Boy back in the 90's.

That seems to be more of Sony's fault that Nintendo's.

Yeah I caught that oddity myself. I've seen a lot of posts saying how they have "outgrown" or dislike Nintendo games for whatever reason and then turn around and say they want them in "hd" on PS3 and/or 360. Such a blatant hypocrisy and show of blind fanboyism.

Deep down they are festering. They crave the Nintendo IPs like a drug but hide this on the forum. Sometimes their true colors show.

Only when they haven't had a fix in a while. Playing with a Wii in a back alley, stealing some kid's DS on the bus, that sort of thing.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="kaealy"]

wait, how come I couldn't start Red steel 2 when I forgot to borrow the wii motion plus along with the game from a friend?

RR360DD

I'm sorry, I forgot about that game. Fine, there are a grand total of THREE games (including one that has not been released yet) that REQUIRE Motion+. Oh my, oh my, whatever shall I do?

4 actually, 5 if you include Zelda. And thats besides the point. The Wii is dead and its motion controls proven a joke. Even Nintendo have abandoned it with the WiiU.

HOWEVER, dual analogue is a standard, proven control scheme. How can you play an FPS properly on the 3DS with one analogue stick. You cant.

Yeah you can. its called buttons. Use the circle pad or the directional arrows to move around, ABXY buttons to look around, L ADS mode and R to fire; touchscreen to change weapons. Not hard.

I wonder how many of those guys are gonna play Skyward Sword in secret, and how many of them will be able to contain their love and amazement of it. :P

You know, I love this response so much, I actually use it from time to time. The difference being I use it when someone is being openly hypocritical. :roll:

Nintendo is dead to me. The WiiU is the epitome of laziness and milkage. Of course they don't want to put cutting edge technology into their new console, just slap some outdated 6 year old parts in it along with some stupid gimmicky controller and their legion of fanboys will lap it up. They've already been behind the curve for the past half decade, still stuck in archaic SD and their latest is nothing more than a cashgrab that is stunting the technological advancement of video games.

I fail to see how Nintendo alone is stunting the gaming industry with outdated tech. PC seems to do most of the advancing not consoles.

Oh, and the TC is full of it. I wasn't a huge fan of the wii, but I'm digging my 3DS. No wait, I mean it's dying a horrible death. Yes, that's it.

No, PC does little to none of the advancement. The vast majority of games released today are multiplatform, which in almost all cases means consoles are the lead platform. This means the games are optimized around their outdated tech. Modern PCs are tremendously more powerful than the 360 and PS3 but how many games can you think of that actually ultilize that power? Battlefield 3? Crysis before that. A 4 year gap. There aren't many. Technological advancement is centered solely around the consoles, like it or not.

Agreed. If Nintendo exists the hardware business (which it will not), I want all traces of Nintendo IPs to be completely wiped out and lost to oblivion.

It's only fitting for some of the greatest IPs in video game history to go out with a bang rather than a whimper.

That's what it seems to be.

I think TVTropes has an article about that. And yes, it hurts Nintendo.

Activision- wants to take the fun out of making videogames. EA- buy our games new or you don't get to play online. Or you can pay a fine for buying our games used. (Bonus)Ubisoft- be connected to the internet or you cannot play the game you purchased from us. Microsoft- ???

Yeah, I'll wait until it has a better library and they actually release a new version with all that included.

Hey, don't knock the guy just because of his avatar & sig. Even Nintendo's own fans will most likely agree with what he said.

The OP smells of MS fanboy, and it is hilariously ironic that the OP is saying all this about Nintendo while having a Halo avatar and sig. Thread fail!

That's what I see all over nowadays. It goes to show that Nintendo is in a Sonic-style situation here. No doubt they did bad moves, but even the good moves, they get thrashed.

No I made that crack because TC made the crack about how Nintendo just makes another Mario Game and another Zelda game.

Meanwhile Halo is going on to it's 7th game.

I was merely pointing out the Hypocrisy right there, I never said that in the intension that Halo sucks because it doesn't.
