Do you think Nintendo gives a shit when they release a substandard sequel?
>>343651005
Probably. But at the end of the day, they're more or less supporting two platforms on their own, so sometimes to cover a drought I'm guessing they have to release an okay game in 12 months development than a great game in 24 months development
>Almost every fucking song is the same song
What went wrong?
What were they thinking?
They clearly don't with how many they've released.
>>343651005
Seeing as Nintendo fans seemingly don't give a fuck no matter how many Mario games come out every year I doubt it.
Good Feel should handle every Yoshi game from now one
Is it just me or did the Nintendo of yesteryear have a lot more of a edge factor to their games? Along with a lot more obvious charm.
Not just Diddy Kong's Quest, but all three of the DKC games come to mind too. Before the games felt like they had darker themes at times. While now the game in OP's pic seems like it was built just for babies.
With red coins thrown in as the only challenge for adults who still play their games.

Good-Feel should make a Metroid game

Most of Nintendo's mainline shit has been pretty sanitized since NSMB broke sales records. Splatoon had a pretty cool aesthetic though.
>>343654591
>>343651005
They were so lazy with that game they didn't even bother making a Baby Bowser model: they just ripped a Bowser Jr. model from another game.
>>343654591
>"darker themes"
No, it's just a matter of effort, it's obvious a lot of their new games are just cookie-cutter rehashes using an already successful formula. I don't think it has anything to do with "darker themes" or edginess.

>Is it just me or did the Nintendo of yesteryear have a lot more of a edge factor to their games?
Yes, yes the did. It's hard to say what did it, although I doubt it was strictly a matter of NSMB getting so much money. Part of it I think is an increasingly conservative mindset of Nintendo's top devs. I'm pretty sure they're starting to see bloat in places that really shouldn't have been cut, and franchise 'purity' has become a top priority.
Considering where they're going with Paper Mario, I doubt it.
>This game retroactively ruined Yoshi's Island's ending
>>343656243
With Paper Mario they thought they were doing the series a favor.
Oh how wrong they were
>>343651005
Yeah but I don't think they're expecting Artoon to do as good a job as their 1st party developers. But they aren't going to pull their best developers off main series Mario to make a Yoshi game.
>>343651005
No.
That's why they hand it to another company.
>>343651005
When they lose money or don't have sales
Look at Federation Force
So we're all gonna ignore how great Wooly World was? News flash, Artoon makes shit games. Good Feel makes good games.
>>343660589
But Wooly World was trash.
inb4 comfy
>>343660589
Is anybody ignoring this? Woolly World was a solid game.
Doesn't change the fact that Nintendo's first part offerings look absolutely dismal right now
>Star Fox Zero
>PM Colour Splash
>Federation Force
>>343654591
They still have them, it's just more rare. Like the ghost in Super Mario 3D Land or the background in Galaxy 2 with those creepy figures in the mountain. Kirby games haven't changed much at all with it either. The atmosphere has gotten dull in their latest games though I feel, especially Mario.
>>343654591
Yep, I know exactly what you're saying. Super Mario Bros. 3, Yoshi's Island, DK, Metroid, etc, they all had that. Now look at all their respective series now, it's like they literally just went towards a more childish and baby tone. I really have no idea why.
Just listen to this. This is the Nintendo I loved. I can't believe how much they have drastically changed and I'll never understand why. You don't even hear shit like this anymore.

how was this game, /v/? be honest.
>>343665581
I love this song but it's too bad you only get to hear 30 seconds of it if you try even a little bit in the final bowser fight.

Uninteresting gameplay, writing, visuals, and music
