[QUOTE="trugs26"]

[QUOTE="ultraking"]There's actually people who only own a wii? How sadCalvin079



It's sad that people like me are fulfilled by one console and one handheld? Why? It's designed to entertain, and it is doing so.

exactly. Nintendo doesn't rely on power and graphics to make games. Just their gameplay.

And nostalgia. But watch someone flip what I said an turn it into a bad thing.

[QUOTE="nintendoboy16"]1. You know, if it hadn't been for the 3D hype, other game companies wouldn't have adapted to it. 2. I'll give you that one. N64 had the platformers and FPS/TPS, but it did lack RPG's (GameCube did better at that genre though) and fighting games 3. Again, I'll give you that as third party support did lack compared to PlayStation. 4. As if Sony/MS/Sega weren't ever overconfident? Besides there is nothing wrong with using your own format as long as you know what your doing (I'd rather Nintendo do that, rather than jump on any bandwagons that makes them LESS Nintendo). 5. Every company has a fear of piracy and overconfidence in that aspect. 6. Sony wasn't any better in quality control, dude. Why do you think PS1 and PS2 had the most shovelware in their libraries? 7. Why the hell wouldn't Nintendo pay most attention to a few first party IPs? They can't pay attention to them all. Nobody can, especially if a particular IP doesn't do that well. 8. Again, like 3D, multiplayer actually caught on in gaming, the multiplayer aspect hype caught on. Too many people played the likes of Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart, and Super Smash Bros. On top of that, if the multiplayer hype was that bad, why the heck would SEGA and Microsoft adapt to it in the Dreamcast and XBOX?

1.Nope, 3D was already there and going. 2. No it lacked EVERYTHING. Not just Fighting and Rpgs, which really were not as popular as some believed that gen save for a few games as the popularity was not spread out evenly. 4. We are talking about 5th gen, MS was on PC's and Sony just started, Sega wasn't overconfident, they were panicking at this time and rushed out a 4th gen system into the 5th gen. Also what bandwagons? Even early CD systems and PC showed what you could do with CDs, Nintendo just though they could charge more lwith name brand. 5. No, they aren't over confident. Nintendo though just slapping there name would allowe almost 100% instant sucess with it and i fought piracy. 6. They had more than 4% of the library up toward the top and they did a much better jonb keeping bad and cash-ins down from selling over 1 million than the N64 did. Also, I notice you grasping by mentioning the Ps2. 7. You aren't thinking 5th gen, they had no reason to, they were overconfident and cocky and spread all there hype on few games and all n64 top lists the majority of the time have the same 10 games. Also, a lot of franchises did well before and at that time, they just thought they could sit back with all the hype. In the GC era, this led to people not having interests in some of these franchises and the top ones as much. Or, at all. 8. MO didn't catch on, it was already there, and when you have no genre diversity, overconfidence and cockyness, and have very very little of your libaray even being paid attention to, and then decide to instead of fix that problem, keep pushing the MP feature over the competition, most games that used it or through it on were bad, and thus, was not a real feature to rely on when the GC came out, even the Xbox didn't use it as an advantage. Also again, MP was already a part of gaming, the N64 did not improve it, and even if it didn't exist, online gaming, which has nothing to do with local MP most of the time, would have still existed, again proving you are reaching for things to make it seem like the N64 wasn't as uch of a fail as it wad.

You must realize the the Sega Saturn was a total failure. It had a very poor game libary in most contries now let me explain this real quick for you gys. The Saturn is a 4th gen console made of the left overs of the Gen and some failed projects. Like the all and 3, and the 32X (CD wasn't really a failure but was not doing as good as it should, but focus of hardware over software does that for you. It can't handle real 3D, and 2D wise, which is stronger than the others in some areas, is pretty much a slightly more powerful Neo-Geo arcade console. You can speak Shenmue tech demo all you want, but the Saturn would choke on that game as badly as it started to choke in some areas with viewpoint which effected its release on the console. (both the NEo and the PSX version were choked on.) The Saturn had a very complex architechture, but as many way you program you will always end up not being able to use all its power as you will always be limited unless you make a full 2D game. look at VF. not impressive at all even for the time. The Saturn also removed very easy BC with the GEN nd had the cart slot used for other things. Which included expanding memory since the Saturn was basiaclly a slightly more powerful 4th gen console. The system had terrible genre variety unlike its last 3 brothers. Most of the games are copies of other games doing similar things. Name some of your favorite saturn games, and I bet there's no real improvements or/and originality between them. The Saturn was a combination of the Sega CD and 32X with slightly more kick and no more. Even in the 2D field, it had some competition with the Neo-Geo and PSX even then, and non-arcade gaming platforms where able to combine the 2, not many effective 2.5 d games on the saturn right? The Saturn did nothing right,nothing a 5th gen console should do, and was a 4th gen console. Sega didn't have a 5th gen. If they had released a eal console instead of combining old tech together and claiming new, then maybe the Saturn would have been more impressive, especially with its dual wield technology. Sadly, this be not the case.

I'm not saying that some of the games I'm going to mention aren't good. Rather some are excellent...but it's the pattern evolving that I'm fed up with.

I'll explain.

See in recent years we've been fed un-original, inane and pointless titles such as Call of Duty, Battlefield, Dead Island, etc. I'm not saying these are bad games. I'm just saying I'm sick of them.

I'll give you an example. So many people are hating on titles such as Silent Hill: Downpour. Yes, it's flawed but it's unique and it's well put together. There's no horror title like any of the SH games, but yet people seem to hate on it. But then they go and play games that come out every single year with only a few extra map packs or skins to add to the mix.

I want unique games. I want games with flavour and taste, ones that do what they do well. Like Deus Ex: HR. Sure, the genre has been done before, but the elements, story, taste and design is mouth-watering.

A game like Vanquish may have a crap story, but the gameplay is ace and completely original. Dead Space 2 isn't original, but the universe is so deep, so enthralling and so detailed that it's hard not to get sucked into it and think about it hours after you put the controller down.

That doesn't happen with Battlefield or CoD. I play them as well, but I still want something better.

I want tities that suck you in, involve you, and aren't all just about the action. I want games such as Bayonetta thatare completely original and games such as Deus Ex and Batman that do what they do with such detail and enthanuism that you can't help but fall in love with.

I'm so sick of all these games that are skin deep that don't involve you, don't give you after thoughts, nor do they do anything new.

Do you guys know where I'm coming from?

Discuss.

You do realize that genre diverisity ot experimenting with changes does not go without flaws and if the game is original and has 100 flaws GLARING at you, you shouldn't rate it high just because its original or differnt genre than the majority released. GS did that 5th gen.

Thanks for making it so my Nintendo ill think releaing games without evolving them is a good idea for another gen, they need people like you running the company. Not really. Also, Sonic and Mario and the olympic games? Really?

Shouldn't the title be?

"8 Reasons the GameCube led to Nintendos fall and reliance on casuals to regain.

zaku101
How? The Gamecube has more than 8 main problems, and its the N64 that led to the ignorance, stubborness, and bad decisions that went with the game cube. There will be another thread on that sometime later. but you must realize it all started with the N64/ The SNES was the launch pad and the N64 was the rocket, and the Gamecube was the rocket exploding because it twas badly constructed.

They are both toy consoles. All consoles are mainly toys whether you like it or not.layton2012
The Xbox, the 360, and the PS3 were not designed for games in mind while making the core. The Xbox and 360 wer designed to be PC/desktop alternatives, and the PS3 was made as a movie/blu-ray entertainment box. Neither 3 are toys.

Think of it this way, at least you admitted the games were good. Except 3, that was.... I suppose you should put it this way. Adam, to me and many people I know, I didn't even think was Black until SOR2. That was debatable. To be honest, I think Skate clarified the whole thing. Also, they wanted to change up the gameplay. Think of this, Adam was the default character, but they decided to change it up. Do you have the police officer with the rocket launcher helping you anymore? no, they removed them, added some moves, and replaced the style and changed the gameplay a bit. Think mortal Kombat and how dull it would be if Liu Kang never died and it was just the same old predictable liu kang wins everytime. Gameplay change up. The only think i agree with you on is the third game, but I think they did that because they didn't want anyone to forget he existed, and the first 2 games in many peoples opinion, and mine, are the best in the serious even soundtrack wise, so who ouldn't go back to the first game Once reminded about adamn in the third game, they are pretty much advertising the first. heck, i think they did that on purpose once they realised how crappy 3 was in almost all levels.
