All they seem to make is kiddy games that apear to toddlers, while companies like Microsoft make true hardcore games such as Halo, and Gears of War.

Isn't Majora's Mask considered to be an incredibly dark game? Eternal Darkness? etc.

Hardcore games like Halo and Gears of War? :lol: Speaking about mature games, why would Nintendo want to cater to teenage boys?

compete? you do realize they've completely owned the competition this gen right? the ones that should care about "being able to compete" are MS and sony, who are way behind in both hardware and first party software sales. so the reason you've provided isn't much of a "reason". anything more?

So instead of appealing to all age demographics they should appeal to one specific one. That'll work out great.

Ninty's main franchises aren't really suited to that aside from Zelda.

I want a Zelda: God of War style to be made honestly.

because it splits its focus on the gore and combat from GoW. it's the perfect "what if" scenario.

Play Majora's Mask, the Metroid Prime games, Eternal Darkness, The Wind Waker, and tell me that their games are 'kiddy.' Regardless, I fail to see how a game being 'kiddy' has anything to do with anything.

You underestimate the maturity of MM? It is so mature, it transcends generations. And since when does Nintendo not make mature games? The majority of their narrative-driven offerings tend to be a lot more mature than most M-rated games that are rated as such merely for gratuitous content.

No... NIER is the prefect "what if scenario." As soon as I started playing it I felt the Zelda vibe... and out continued throughout.

I find excessive amounts of blood, great amounts of cleavage/breasts, tough big rough military men, excessive swearing etc. that are commonly found in many 'mature games' more childish and immature than say Disney movies.

Nintendo and mature? You mean like Metroid Prime, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, Eternal Darkness?

Heck, the final battle in Mother 3 is more mature than all Gears of War games and Halo games combined.

Give me one damn good reason why Nintendo should go out of their way to make an M rated game just to appease a bunch of whiney gamers who are so insecure of their maturity that they actually think crap like blood and gore and sexual content make a game mature.

You mean something with a big M on a box? Two things about that:

1. Nintendo stated themselves that they don't make games like that with their in-house developers as they don't feel as if it's their thing. If they ever do publish games like that, they get second party developers to do that.

2. Nintendo has published three Mature rated games by other developers (Rare, Silicon Knights, n-Space) and only one game was a success, the other two were failures.

The success at 1.3 million copies sold was Rare's Perfect Dark on the N64

The failures were Silicon Knights Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and n-Space's Geist, both were on the GameCube. Eternal Darkness sold over 200,000 copies, while no numbers were specified for Geist as well as that game being hardly ever talked about.

The only thing "Mature" Nintendo is going to publish is Capcom's Resident Evil: Revelations, but that is in Europe, but really, you can't blame them for avoiding chances like this as they ended up getting burned in the the last couple times they did it.

Oh yeah, because appealing to an M rated audience worked SO well every time Nintendo did it. :roll:

Oh wait, IT ONLY WORKED 1/3 of the time. The other 2/3, they failed.
