Can we have an honest discussion about nintendo and why you honestly think Nintendo should be ran through the gutter by /v/?
Fps, Graphics, Exclusives, I could care less about, but that fact that 2/3 companies feel the need to charge you for online servicesOn top of you paying for the console, games, internet provider, gaming accessories etc.is more than enough reason to think that Nintendo is the true winner in all aspects of gaming.
Im not saying the other two are horrible, but that one flaw specifically is why I never wanted to go to that route of gaming.
Their games are fine and all that other junk, but theres clearly a balance in sight and Nintendo is jack of all traitsMaster of None?

I think we're in for a leaner meaner Nintendo with the next console, honestly. They've seen their competitors get away with it for the last 9 years, which is potentially lost profits for them. I think Kimishima is going to change up a lot of shit with this next generation.
If Nintendo kept it the same to appeal to fans, we wouldn't have abominations like Other M, Skyward Sword, Sticker Star, FE Awakening and a slew of other bullshit they produce in vain attempts to appeal to wider audiences instead of five causing on the core fanbase who supported them all these years.
Also fuck you, Nintendo does feed off Amiibos. Amiibos are worse than DLC and micro transaction but on one calls them out on it because it's ok when Nintendo does it.

millennials
/v/ has a lot of young people who follow vidya journalists because they didn't grow up to see how shitty those people became.
Also young people love youtubers more than video games and youtubers (in general) hate Nintendo because of their policy of not letting them use their content to make 100% of profits.
That's about the long and short of it.
Some people will say they're long time fans and that Nintendo has become worse but they really haven't Amiibos can be ignored, the minor diversions into weird things like Rusty's or Badge Baito can be ignored without losing anything.
You can't ignore paid online foolishness and you can't ignore when a system is basically re-selling you the same thing the last numbered iteration of it did.
I have the cash to own everything at the moment but I bought a Wii-U and 3DS because they offer more than the competing consoles.
>>318279014
Awakening is fine, what the fuck is everyone's problem with it
>>318279161
You're a millennial too, millennials were born back into the 80's.
You're thinking of gen Z or the "homeland" generation.
>>318279161
fifa is still primarily a yurop fag thing only

>>318278536
but what about badge center and the new animal crossing?
>>318279114
>That's why it's shit.
No anon, it's shit because 95% of people on Nintendo consoles use Wi-Fi, and playing online without a cable connection is sacrilege.
Of course it's also Nintendo's fault for not even giving the console a network port, but even if the Wii U had one, 9 out of 10 people would still use Wi-Fi because they're assholes and idiots.
>>318278536
eh, did you forget about amiibos? literally the biggest scam in the industry next to kikestarter?
>>318278536
I agree. Paid online is the reason I didn't get an Xbox 360 and is now one of the reasons I don't have a PS4. I already pay a monthly fee for my internet connection, I'm not paying again for the privilege of using it.
>>318279170
Born 1990 and had a snes when I was like 3 and N64 at launch.
Wii was trash I gave up on Nintendo during that time. Nintendo has become worse. The Wii U is making really big leaps back to Nintendo being great again. But they keep doing stupid shit like with Fatal Frame not having a physical release and being censored. This shitty localization of xenbolade. etc.
>>318279257
>You're a millennial too,

>>318279531
>But they keep doing stupid shit like with Fatal Frame not having a physical release and being censored
How come nobody blames Tecmo for not publishing it themselves? Nintendo just eats the blame despite actually bringing it out, even in digital only (in North America, Europe got a physical version).
Like Nintendo decides to keep Fatal Frame, Bayonetta and Xeno series alive and people bitch about the fact Nintendo actually saved these things. Do you guys ever criticize other game companies anymore?
My favorite is blaming Nintendo for shit like when Binari Sonori localizes a game for Square-Enix in a shitty way.
I blame garbage "journalists" and shitty youtubers for spreading the Nintendo is so bad meme.
Seriously. How do you Nintendo fans do it?
It has been weeks since you and your company have been shitted on, even rightfully, non-stop.
And yet you never give up defending it. And yet you never lose faith in your company.
Inb4 "bait". I'm serious.
Your company:
>Enforces region locking
>Refuses to give a proper online service to their users
>Refuses to localize some of their niche titles
>And when they do localize them, they censor them
>They willingly ignore the average age of their userbase, trying to cater to kids or the casual crowd
>They make subpar hardware, limiting not only third parties but also their own devs, that already showed to be able to create 60 fps games with good art styles with a shitty hardware, imagine what they could do with good hardware
>Their twitter feed is full of stupid shit and they refuse to acknowledge the angry tweets of their fans
>The metascores of their most recent titles are mediocre at best
>Refuses to make sequels to their beloved series like F-Zero and Metroid
>Drops their main home console when it is just 3 years old
And yet you never admit every criticism I listed is true.
Mind you, I play on PC and that is. But I genuinely feel sorry for you Nintendo fans. This is why I wrote this whole post.
Tl;dr: why you keep supporting them? Are you masochists? Is there something particular that keeps you on board with Nintendo?
If I were you, I'd jump ship, because I can't support a company that shits on its own fanbase.
So, speak up. What's your excuse?

Nintendo is the publisher for those, of course it's their fault for not pushing them more.

That's fucking terrible management. Ninte do is literally retarded.
>>318279741
>How come nobody blames Tecmo for not publishing it themselves?
Because Nintendo themselves have far more power in what gets published than Sony or Microsoft does with their games.
Nintendo can and does tell devs to fuck off all the time.
Not saying Nintnedo should give out handouts but they should had pushed for a physical release of Fatal Frame. AT LEAST advertised for it more.
>>318279890
>It has been weeks since you and your company have been shitted on,
More like decades.
Sure, Nintendo is terrible, but being worse than Sony and Microshaft is simply not possible.

>>318279974
>No metroid, zelda, no more than one rpg, no f zero, no 3d Mario main title or kirby, no eternal darkness or other dead series worthwhile
Zelda is coming. DKC got an amazing entry in the series.
They could do better. Not saying they're perfect. Compared to the Wii they are making huge leaps.
>>318280069
The difference is Sony and MS can pop out good games every gen in a sea of shit, but all the good Nintendo games are tied to the era before the Wii

So who else stepped in to publish the Xeno series?
If you don't give a shit about Xeno games fine. Otherwise this is the only way you get them. Ditto for other good franchises.

Justify that in a practical sense without using

Europe got a physical release too.
>>318280405
Nintendo owns monolith, not like they had a choice anymore for better publishers.
>>318279209
Awakening was a Nessacary Evil. An easier title to bring people in, or the series would have died. Thankfully it looks like nintendo wants to cater to both the newer players and to vetrans with fates.
>>318280518
Oh my god, I hope you guys are just underage and that's the problem.
>>318280485
>Justify that in a practical sense without using
It costs Nintendo nothing to throw Fatal Frame into a Direct. They didn't.
PAL and NTSC J got physical release. NTSC U/C didn't. That's bullshit.
>>318278789
Even if they start doing it in the next gen, thats still a huge time gap between what Microsoft has done to milk money from their consumers.
At least with amiibos you can enjoy their design AND use them for in game rewards and games.
>>318279014
Stciker star was okayIts paper jam im worried aboutand FEA was awesome.
>>318279114
Anything becomes laggy when theres a really poor connection, yet if both sides are fine then the online is fine.
Besides, Would you rather have free online and lagor pay for online with the same results
>>318279412
Also this, little kids know nothing about wired connections.
>>318279436
The difference between Amiibos and DLC is you dont need to buy amiibos at all in order to play your game fully just like everyone else and you get a neat figure to have as a collection which alot of people have grown fond of.Have you guys gotten the Nuketown 223423445443 same map edition on Black ops XX?
>>318279487
Exactly. I was seriously considering buying a ps4 for that reason until someone told me otherwise. Its the most annoying thing I can think of in the gaming world.
>>318279531
Can you explain why the wii was shit?Who gives a fuck about censoring
>>318279801
You dont need to buy any of that.
>>318279890
I think your reasons or over thought. You really just need to consider the games and what they provide to gamers.
Tbh, Microsoft/Sony makes others critically think too much about what games should be and look at nintendoA kid friendly companyand just unload all that thinking and make them look bad for not following the crowd.
>>318280485

Yesss no microtransactions. Very well put OP. You have just been gifted 5 free plays. Thank you for defending virtual arcades.

NoA basically controls what Nintendo should make.
>>318278536
>Companies who dont feed off Microtransactions
You should have put that one at the end, because they have been doing that recently. Remember to never buy microtransactions, you retards.
>>318280945
Do we know that they have to sign anything off?
There's something strange about this whole situation, especially when Europe doesn't even seem to have that issue.
Amiibo's are just a bad thing all around, but it wouldn't surprise me if the other companies followed suit at some point.
What are amiibos?
What the fuck are the new animal crossing games?
They do not give a fuck about customer satisfaction I.e. Censoring a game for adults so the kids don't see
If Nintendo charged for online they wouldn't give away games with it
Nintendo is the worst of the three by far
>>318281093
How mad are you that you dropped that Majora's Mask. You can be honest with me.
>>318280780
That doesn't matter, CoD is better on PC and if you like FIFA go fuck yourself, find some actual friends and go play soccer outside.
Amiibos, Censorship, and Region Locking make it hard for me to be a fan of Nintendo.
Anybody who hates Nintendo joined games as a member of the born mobile generation.

>>318278536
I agree, paid online is why I won't buy a PS4 until the gen is over or they bundle it with a lifetime sub to PSN+. Unfortunately Nintendo will probably charge for online next gen, and they really have been ramping up the DLC jewing. NoA's censorship is getting out of control, too. I think it's about time I find a new hobby.
>>318281669
Nitpicker. It's pure fanboy foolishness to deny that Wii U has its share of sweet games. I think you're jealous because the other consoles are even more stale than Zelda remakes.

Has you even thought about what those games were? Rushed to hell, despite knowing what scores they would have (it's why they didn't send review copies out).

Nintendo literally just released a 3DS game where you pay real money to attempt to get fake stickers, their Smash DLC is fucking ridiculously expensive and you can't get all of it without paying upwards of 40 bucks, they shoehorn amiibo-locked content into everything and intentionally make them scarce and hard to find. The entire Wii U console is fucking rounded Playskool garbage and all of its features feel like an afterthought. Nintendo is shit and it's not okay when they do it.
>>318282120
I don't think Nintendo rehashes that much. The rehash king meme is really forced. We all know the least original devs are from the West.
>>318282405

It's okay to me, I still like playing their games.
If you want people to forget Nintendo that badly, find someone to beat their software.

You happy now? The only thing I don't have here is my SNES because I gave it away to my poor family in poland once I had a PS1. Modern nintendo is garbage, hell even the fucking gamecube was mostly a disappointment. I was that fucking guy who got one instead of a PS2 and missed out on all the great games the other kids were talking about.
>>318282405
Are you forced to get that 3DS game? No.
How much is a character and stage? 5.99 or something? Seems like a decent deal seeing as most fighting games (not saying Smash is one but just stay with me here) with DLC characters are 5.99 or sometimes 12.99 or so.

Wrong you hopeless die-hard Nintendrone.
I got my NES in 1990 and was a Nintendo fan up to the Gamecube. Then they decided to go full retard, pandering to 4 year old toddlers and 80 year old demented grannies.
Their games have become more and more bland and casual, unimaginative by-the numbers and simplistic, made on shoe string budgets.
Their business practices since the Wii days have been abysmal and out to fuck the consumer in the ass as hard as possible.
Nowadays I can't stand them. The only good thing is that to the industry they have become completely irrelevant, so they won't fuck shit up for everyone outside of their little Nintendo Land bubble where a bunch of nostalgia derping 30 year old hot pocket stained permavirgin basement dwelling NEET autists and some 5 year old kids still dwell.
Truth hurts. Deal with it.

I was a diehard Nintendo-only fag up to the Wii and jumped ship when I played LBP on my brother's PS3. Now I have a PS4, PC, and a Wii U and the Wii U sees the least use of them all.

Last Story

Metroid Prime 3

Yes, do not force the rehash maymay. You kinda hurt yourself and your employer, because the Wii U has the most original lineup of the three consoles.

>Enforces region locking
True, that sucks. But like every other company, it's seemingly at random. Sony did until the PS3, Nintendo never did on handhelds until this gen, and are considering not doing for the NX (I doubt they won't, just pointing it out.) It's hardly a deal breaker, but it IS lame as fuck.
>Refuses to give a proper online service to their users
Except they do, and it's free, unlike everyone else's.
>Refuses to localize some of their niche titles
Just like everyone else, and very rarely from Nintendo. What games aren't they localizing that matter to you?
>And when they do localize them, they censor them
The censorship is something you find happening with every company, and it's usually very minor. Still shit, I don't support that. I buy anything censored used, or just grab the JP version. Bethesda games are censored in Japan, SE censors shit all the time. Atlus, NISA, Sega, Valve... Everyone.
>They willingly ignore the average age of their userbase, trying to cater to kids or the casual crowd
Subjective. Most of their games are pretty easy to start, moderately challenging to finish, hard as fuck to 100% complete. In fact, most game reviewers count their difficulty as a negative (Tropical Freeze, Woolly World, etc).
>They make subpar hardware, etc
It's all about cost. The games they make look fantastic, that's all that matters. Graphics fags are the worst. I'll take a good game on the PS1 over the average shit on the PS4 any day.
>Using Twitter
Everyone on that dump is shit.

In truth, you're just mad because Nintendo gave the finger to the entire game industry and is getting away with it.

If you're born between 95-2000 you wont see a problem with Nintendo because you were never exposed to a era comprised of companies that make content where you can blindly buy on brand name, and get gauranteed quality.
Now, since the DS and Wii gimmicks were introduced, and since Nintendo realized they had free money from casuals and people who DONT ACTUALLY PLAY VIDEOGAMES AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT A QUALITY GAME IS (I.E. THE BLUE OCEAN MARKET THIS IS A HUGE REDFLAG YOU BLIND NIGGERS) they dumbed down and oversimplfiied and started making streamlined generic copypaste games pushed forward by gimmicks instead of inventing and pushing new standards of gameplay like they used to.
>>318283389
The only "original" games they have is Splatoon and W101. The rest are just the same shit they've been pulling out for the last 20 years.
>>318283626
>You must have an incredibly vague understanding of Sony and Microsoft's online infrastructure
Not him, and yes I don't, I only have a PS3, and I only use it for Warhawk, a game which has been let down by PSN's wonky shittiness. The game would be so much more enjoyable on Nintendo Network.
>>318283208
>Maybe if I shrink all the images downs so much nobody will be able to tell the difference
At the very least Nintendo's games don't look indistinguishable from other developers.
>>318283547
>and try to pass them off as a different game?
That's why Nintendo sold it to you twice ;-)
>>318283482
And the actual Animal Crossing Wii is an up port of Wild World so it's not like it makes much difference anyway.
>>318283785
>The only "original" games they have is Splatoon and W101
That's about twice as many original games as PS4 and Xbone combined
>>318283626
I can buy shit on the store without any hassle (unlike sony's shit PSN structure these days)
It's free.
I can play games. I don't need anything else.
>>318283729
And Bayonetta 2, W101, Kirby, Yoshi, Sanic Lost Game, Splatoon, ZombiU, etc.
>>318283804
I think you misquoted, bub.
>>318283659
>In 10 years time, no one will miss the wii-u
Unlike the Wii the Wii U actually has games worth a shit.
>>318283785
So two more original games than every other company on the planet.
>>318283818
Shit nigger what? The 3DS version is a fucking port. Its not like its calling itself DCKR 2 or some shit.
>>318283989
Wii had FAR more memorable games than Wii U
>>318278536
>companies that intentionally underproduce all of their products so that they never go on sale

>>318283926
What hassle is there to buying games on the PlayStation Store?
>Just because I don't need things like party chat while playing separate games, a proper messaging system, and web account management means it's okay for them to not be there! I'll just pretend it does everything the competition does because I have no idea what the competition is doing because mommy only bought me one system and therefore it is the best!
>>318284086
Are you 15 kid? The Wii was waggle shit. It will always be shit.
The only thing the Wii will be remembered for is how to fuck up a console.
>>318283654
>and is getting away with it.
Not really, no. They are actually quite in the shitter now just like they were after the Gamecube. If the NX doesn't sell Wii numbers and manages to capture the normies it's sayonara to Hacktendo.
They will be back to making hanafuda cards and dice.
Their legendary "battle chest" delusional Nintendrones like to parrot about has already shrunk to the size of an ona-hole box.
>>318284348
>The only thing the Wii will be remembered for is how to fuck up a console.
Just like the Wii U

>>318279890

That I don't care about hardware, specs, shitty online or any of that nonsense?
Ever stop to think I genuinely like Nintendo IPs because, well. Gee. I like them?
I don't care about your petty console wars, or your fallen sales, or your politics, none of that shit matters to me, Nintendo could burn in flames, and if it does so be it.
Not going to stop me from enjoying the games I like until they stop making them.
>>318284418
Soryy, champ. It wont.
The Wii U already has far too many amazing games to be forgotten and actually has an innovative controller. Those gyros will not not be dropped anytime soon.
>>318284617
>Ever stop to think I genuinely like Nintendo IPs because, well. Gee. I like them?
Care to explain why I am given shit for liking Sony's IP then?
>le ps4 one gam xD

It will be remembered as another abortion like the Dreamcast.
>>318284802

What ever you say champ.
>>318284802
Not really, there were some cool games on the Dreamcast. The Saturn would be more of an abortion.
>>318284802
Nah
But you will keep being butthurt about t in a decade time. Being on the good side of history is the best thing.
>>318284086
I feel like people had very low standards for the wii. They always cite "classic memorable great games" like mad world, no more heroes, and shit like that. They are 6/10 games AT BEST people just blow their load over them because superficial reasons.
For me at least, even the wii games I liked I got bored of after one playthrough because of how easy they were. I liked Mario Galaxy/Metroid Prime 3/Twilight Princess/etc. for one playthrough, but trying to replay them felt like an absolute chore
>>318284292
>I'll just pretend it does everything the competition does because I have no idea what the competition is doing because mommy only bought me one system and therefore it is the best!
Wow, I guess this PS3, Vita, and PS4 I bought, and of course the $1000 PC I built, they just don't exist because a shitpost in 4chan said so. Well, that sucks.
PSN is clunky, slow, and unwieldy. Get some taste, you underaged Sonyfag.
>>318284694
>far too many amazing games
Yeah, all two of them.
>>318283316
>>318284959
I am not gonna be butthurt
Wii U has a few good exclusives, yes. But overall, it was a big failure.
>>318284760
and here is where you realize two wrongs don't make a right
Not him, but unless the mentality of both sides change then the circular jerk fest known as console wars will never end
>>318284998
>They don't fit my shitposting, so i will ignore them all
>Surely papa sony will appreciate me defending him on 4chan!
>>318284972
Maybe you wouldn't be this butthurt if you had your wii softmodded, download a whole bunch of games for it and play the shit out of it.
>>318285039
you're retarded
>>318285143
>deflecting to Sony
Typical.
>>318285061
Nah. It's dominating the others as far as good game is concerned, and is making money for nintendo.
That's a win win. PS4 is making money but got shit all for interesting games. I feel sad for the tards that bought it.
>>318285207
So the only reason you rate the Wii highly is because you can play shitty emulators on it?

>>318279890
>>318279890
How is this an issue? why would I play things in a language I don't understand? This only affects japs and half japs. or weaboos.
Online is fine. Works as it needs to. What do you expect to play online other then Mon hun, Smash, and mario? Also if I want good internet, I have a PC for that.
Obviously not popular enough. Again, why is this an issue?
Because they're not up to code with our legal system. If you're one of those people whos bitching about censoring anime titties grow the fuck up.
Target audience is children. Get that hrough your head anon, we don't matter. We're not the core audience. Nintendo is a CHILDRENS company. If not for the oversaturation of "gamers" You'd be shunned just for playing a kids game at your age.
>Hardware
Are you a PC fag? Nintendo doesnt need good hardware, or graphics. The core of the game and its design is whats important, not what it looks like. its reasons like this your precious PS4 has BEAUTIFULAYCH DEE GRAFFIX and plays like compelte and utter shit. Your devs dont give a fuck about the product other then "It looks pretty"
>Using twitter at all
t
>CARING ABOUT A REVIEW SITE AS WORD OF GOD
They don't need them. Metroid had 8 games, f-zero had 6. only people complaining are babies. Move on. Time for new ideas.
The wii-U is dead in the water. ITs got an okay library, but it wont get any bigger.

Thanks for proving my point, senpaitachi
People give them shit about amiibo, but I like amiibo a lot because I like collecting things. If they'd released the same exact figures for the same exact price but not "locked" anything behind them, I'd have bought them anyway, because I've wanted Smash Bros trophies for almost 15 years now, and holy shit they're finally listening. And what's that? I can get extra pointless little shit in other Nintendo games by using them? That's just another bonus.
That said their censorship as of late really pisses me right the fuck off.

If you're gonna bitch that one country has something you don't. then get that version instead. its obvious you only care about tits anyways.
Or play the real version and go atch a youtube of someone playing the uncensored version if you're that upset.
This is literally first world problems: Nitnendo edition. I can't even believe humanity has sunk this low to think this is actually an issue.

Nice presumptions, cunt. I wanted to have a smaller chest on my adult female playable character, but I guess that's too much to ask. You also can't even customize characters aside from your own playable character, and you can't make your character look like a 12 year old anyway.

You know whats sad? Iwatas last knowledge was that the world hated him for trying to bring the fans a new metroid game. Okay, so its not what they wanted. but the metroid fan base had NO right to act the way they did.
It just proved how ugly humans can be.
I thought of myself as a metroid fan once, I loved Every metroid equally, inclusing Other M and prime. Now? I don't even want to be associated with those psychopathic monsters.
Its a fucking video game. if you're gonna raise hell over something like this, I think i'm pretty much done with video games as a whole.
They turn humans into demons.

>>318287553
What's even a real Yoshi game? They already tried remaking Island twice and it was mediocre or awful both times, mostly because they always fuck up the music. Yoshi as a series has always been inconsistent as fuck and Wooly World is arguably the best Yoshi since Island.
The rest still stands to a point.

tbqh you're sinking to their level by using terms like that.
I don't get why people complain about amiibos. If they were just action figures people would be ok with it, but because they have in-game functionality on top of that it's somehow bad. When people complain about amiibos it just strikes me as that typical pseudo-intellectual liberal college douchebag "advertisements brainwashing all the sheeple maaaan, teh corporshuns maaaan" sort of mentality.

Except the part where the gameplay is almost 1 to 1 the same as Yoshi's Island. You clearly haven't so much as looked at gamepaly footage.

I wanted a Metroid game where you play as a fed trooper.

I'm out, this is silly.
>>318280672
>You dont need to buy any of that.
Maybe not, but I'm pretty sure you and everyone else did. And Nintendo is counting on people like you to pay for more because the base game, while fully playable, is no longer the full experience you all crave without DLC or amiibos. Now no future Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Fire Emblem, etc., if not any large-franchise Nintendo game, will always have amiibo support forever.
>Even if they start doing it in the next gen, thats still a huge time gap between what Microsoft has done to milk money from their consumers.
So you're saying it's an inevitability, and by then you'll say "now it's okay."

So it's okay to sell DLC $10-20 more because it's physical. You know, most DLC go down in price over time, but for amiibos, it's the reverse.
Unless you preorder or buy an amiibo at launch (which is good for any game company because getting money now is better than getting it later), amiibo-locked game content becomes very expensive.
