Dr. Mario, Mario Golf (gameboy ed.), and Mario Tennis come to Switch online after tomorrow.
Also making a
secondthird Mario movieIt's morally right to pirate Nintendo games
That's why I immediately put the GBA Mario Golf and Tennis games on my modded Switch's NSO GBA app after the announcement - the versions they should have added instead of GBC!
As for Dr. Mario, I already have the SNES version on it.
Oh man that voice is distressing. Just pay the man the residuals for god sakes. Or at least find it actually talented voice actor.
I thought Martinette just retired from voice acting because he's old?
But either way... Yeah. Holy shit does that sound bad.
I want 100 Mario back... I really wish they would bring it back for a few months whenever these events happen.
Idk how people still stomach Nintendo. They get 1 decent exclusive every other year, while the rest of the time, they are overcharging for all their garbage products. Most anticonsumer, anticompetition developer on the market that releases products that lag behind the rest of the industry by 5-10 years.
They crush emulation and antique game preservation sites as a hobby.
How is yet another Mario game worth coming back to?
We're all mad about the emulation situation, but this is just silly. People really very much enjoy nintendo games now more than ever. Their player base is very very very satisfied
Let me know what your favorite video game series is, and I’ll tell you why I think it sucks. You then let me know how much you don’t care about my opinion, and then you’ll understand why people like Nintendo.
You need something to whatabout because you can't address the points directly. Childish response that fits the childish fanbase of Nintendo perfectly.
The only game developers that are anywhere in the same running as Nintendo on Anticonsumer practices would be EA, Ubisoft, and Warner Brothers. Maybe arguably Playstation and Xbox.
Literally any other game developer could be listed as a favorite game series and avoid most of the criticisms I've laid out.
Some people enjoy the games, and that's okay.
1 decent exclusive every other year
Absolutely hyperbole. Just last year, we got Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Wonder, Pikmin 4, and Advance Wars Reboot. Doesn’t matter if these aren’t your kind of games, they sold well, were critically acclaimed, and won awards.
lag behind the industry by 5-10 years
For graphics, sure. For creativity, accessibility, and all the other things that matter in video games? They lead the industry
While I agree that the above commented is in order. It does not lead the industry in all other things. They are pretty mixed with performance and their online is pretty awful in comparison to other options. Accessibility is an awkward choice of words since I expect you mean accessible to ages because it also has pretty bad accessibility options. While people often mock Sony for playing it safe with it's cinematic games it also feels like Nintendo's IPs have slowly been conglomeration into a mould over the switches life.
Lmao. Thank you for this list of examples of my point.
I enjoy their games through sailing the high seas.
Which I support. I dont support people who are financing this corporate behemoth that destroys video game history and fans for money.
Many of the most fun games I've played the past 5 years are made by Nintendo. You might not like them and that is okay, but tgey are by no means garbage.
The next take is probably more controversial, but I don't think they are overcharging. Why drop the price after a year or two? Games don't get magically less fun and their games are usually polished enough to last for the entire gen without being overshadowed by later releases (expect for Pokemon, they are hot garbage - at least on the technical side). I'd even argue that not dropping their prices is one of the reasons Nintendo doesn't need the mtx bullshit most other developers pull with their games. Just look at how well Mario Kart sells despite being something like a decade old at this point.
Regarding "overcharging".
The only price that exists is the one they offer for it. If you think it's too expensive for what is offered, congratulations, you know how to spend money. For any kind of product whatsoever.
I certainly think Super Mario Odyssey or Super Mario Bros Wonder were worth their price tag, because they're great. And that's completely subjective.
You either think it's worth it and buy it, or you don't. They're selling games, not food and water. And you've got a freaking galaxy of other games to choose from.
Most anticonsumer, anticompetition developer on the market
Really? Even more than those gacha / loot boxes heavy gaming-as-a-service companies?
What an ironic point to make with 0 context.
Nintendo is the original gacha / lootbox developer. You must not remember their original big money maker was selling randomized packs of collectible cards to children, a practice they are still perfecting to this day.
Nintendo has 10x the market share of any other gacha game too, so even if others are more exploitative, they aren't causing as much overall damage due to market share.
I don't know why you are getting downvoted. Their actions against yuzu and citra are particularly egregious, and unforgivable in my eyes. Especially, considering they use emulation in their own products. For instance, the nes mini used roms download from the Internet. I'll think twice about buying Nintendo products in the future, and I love Nintendo products.
He's getting downvotes because he's acting like a jackass. Like yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone here has some axe or another to grind with Nintendo, they do plenty of shitty things. But to act like their games are somehow objectively bad and that everyone who likes them is just stupid? That's just divorced from reality and overall pretty immature. Obviously it's plenty possible for someone to not personally enjoy the games Nintendo puts out, art is highly subjective, but their games are generally solid.
