Future of Nintendo? Bright.. or Dark

General Discussion
401

I just realized that we are all arguing about the future of a company that has billions in cash stored in its bank accounts. Can we discuss the future of other corporations because out of all of them, the Big N is the least important.

This is what I see in the future for Nintendo: they are going to pull a switch which triggers a hidden mechanism inside the Wiimotes which makes them all fly over Japan and create a giant snake which would immediately fly over to Canada and buttfuck the living shit out of the OP for this shitty thread.

I’ll be honest, I don’t give a fuck about the future of: Sony, Microsoft, Film Critics, the Republican Party, the Democratic Party, hand soap, perfume/cologne manufacturers, teddy bears, cigarette companies, weapons manufacturers and people who write reviews for movies that all invariably contain spoilers and never promote a proper criticism of a movie except to say “Well I didn’t like it because it sucks.”

Other people that need to go fuck themselves are those who can’t properly read, give counter arguments to shit that wasn’t introduced in the first place, those who can’t admit they are wrong, people who get into arguments on which they have no basic knowledge of and policies that penalize employees for being sick.

Wiimote was a necessary step as far as gaming goes: for better or worse game developers need to now whether this technology is worthwhile design space. Why do they need to do this? Because some people daydream about making this cool things because they would be fun. Some shit work out and some other doesn’t.

Here’s the future for Nintendo: They’ll continue making pretty solid first party games and then they’ll have one or two amazing third party gems that will be hard to find.

Sometimes I just can’t fathom why I continually post in this place. Very few times I get a good conversation and most of the times dudes are fronting too hard on some really stupid shit.

The only success story this gen has been half of the Xbox 360 controller: holding that thing is butter in your hands, playing with that thing is like using a snake for a condom while fucking a rabies infected bear missionary.

I’m tired of Mario, but Xenoblade Chronicles was a masterpiece and already the defining RPG of this decade, just as Chrono Trigger was for the 90’s and Mass Effect 2/Persona 4 was for the 2000’s.

Also:

This image is goddamn amazing and kudos to the art team for capturing the feel of the story so well.

And shoutouts to Yoko Shimoura finally not doing Kingdom Hearts and putting her musical talents to a game that deserved it.

nintendo ftl.

404

Why is everyone still hating on the wii? We have awesome stuff for wii. Both nintendo and third party publishers alike.

405

The other systems have better stuff.

406

But thats still no reason to hate on. The wii entirely though… :confused:

407

Because they never found the good shit on the Wii. There is actually a lot of decent games on the wii, but they aren’t well known.

Honestly the problem with the Wii was that it didn’t advertise it’s third party well. People don’t like how the Wii has outdated tech since the last few years on the console. Most of that will pretty much change by WIIU…

408

There are lots of great wii-exclusives out there, you just have to find them. E.G. Super Mario Galaxy, both Kirby games released for wii, Metroid Prime 3, etc.

409

There are some alright wii exclusives like all the first party stuff, but the third party exclusives are few and far between. At the end of the day most of the stuff on their is waggle crap with no merit, and along with no GOOD online multiplayer means that the wii is shat on in favour of systems that offer a more up to date feature selection like DVD watching (which the PS2 had for christ sakes.)

410

This isn’t just a Wii issue. Games in general blow ass these days. People say that xbox and PS3 are so much better… They aren’t any better besides the online functions. That’s it. Both are releasing shitty titles and it isn’t changing.

411

But then the Xbox and Ps3 have a ton of classic arcade games (with netplay) and 3rd party support from various companies. Really hard to play fighting games if you only have a Wii.

412

It is really hard to play fighting games if you only have the PS3 and 360 too.

413

That’s entirely subjective and I completely disagree with you. The 360 and PS3 are orders of magnitude better than the Wii. Tons more high-quality titles, tons of online functionality, tons of great single player and multiplayer games. Just because you got burned by playing the most popular titles like Halo and Mass Effect without even bothering to look at anything more obscure doesn’t mean it’s okay to just brush off every game of today as sucky.

414

True. I should have said a Nintendo console.

415

Oh, Pertho. You complete me.

416

There’s always Brawl-(the brawl mod), the game that’s so broken that it actually ends up being balanced out in the end and played at some tournaments.

417

Honestly since when did Nintendo ever had good fighting game library ? It’s been one of their greatest weaknesses after the SNES days.

The Wii is slightly better because it had.

A Guility Gear Port
TVC
Samurai Showdown collection

Nintendo 64 and Gamecube are probably not that good either.

418

Yo wtf, just saw this post.:rofl:

419

GC Had Naruto years before the PS2. I never really played the game when it came out, but there was a strong following for it. Do you count Smash Bros? Because that shit sold like hotcakes. I never really liked that game, tbh, but I can’t deny that SSBM did well as Nintendo’s flagship fighters.

420

I didn’t bring up smash because I didn’t want a smash debate( Consider that people state SFXT seriously. Smash might as well be a fighter).

Naruto is a good catch, it was pretty much the best fighter game that Naruto’s franchise ever produced.
