Why does it look like these game devs are taking inspiration for their art styles from Shrek these days?

>>376048517
what do you mean

>>376049096
If you took the logos off these games one could mistake them for a Dreamworks movie. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, just seems like a strange direction. I guess there isn't anywhere else to go really since Nintendo doesn't cater to the 'muh realism' crew.

They saved Zelda

They saved Fire Emblem

Next they should save Mario and make the first ever good Super Mario game.

Nah, that's in a month.

>>376049347
It's called color

>>376048413
You don't even have to play it with motion controls dumbass. If you think ARMS is like Wii Boxing you've either never played Wii Boxing or never seen gameplay of ARMS.

>>376048283
arms and splatoon 2 isn't out yet.

>>376048283
They also saved RTS with Pikmin

But yeah, Nintendo is GOAT at saving dying genres.
What should they save next? MMORPGS with the Pokémon MMO?

>>376052156
I saw that tournament they had a while ago. Its literally an improved Wii boxing

>>376052305
they already did that with botw

Oh right, I forgot it's a party action combat 1v1 movement based sports game.

ouch

>>376053212
Ouch? Nobody bought the PiiPoo

>>376053212
splatoon 2 is not a port, It's a sequel dingus.

>>376052530
They're not even the same genre

>>376048283
>casual games with no substance

>>376049347
Just cause they're 3D models doesn't mean it's from a Dreamworks or Disney film. And Nintendo crafted those models even better thna Dreamworks does. Google up some renders of Arms characters and you'll see the NIPPON STEEL FOLDED A THOUSAND TIMES care and detail

How did Nintendo do it?
How did they manage to look at team based shooters and fighting games and go "alright, you know what, we CAN rescue this genre"

Amazing really. Like it or not you gotta hand it to them they did a fantastic job.

>>376049981
>he doesn't know how many times /v/ has been BTFO by Nintendo last month alone

Get ready to eat your words, pissboy.

>>376054313
what's inherently wrong with sequels you crusty grump?

>>376054313
And Mario Kart is original? It's literally the exact same rehash over and over again. Hell, Mario KArt isn't even a racer. Remove the items and the racing part is incredible dull.

>>376054518
>literally the exact same

ummmm, well there goes your argument!

>>376048283
>all these fags saying nintendo didnt save fighting games.
What is Smash Bros?
go ahead and deny that Smash Bros isnt a fighting game and dont give me that "party game excuse." Smash 4 is more technical than fucking SFV. how

4 days you mean

>>376054425
nothing, but they're not going to save an entire genre.
I feel like in order to "save a genre" you need to do something that completely revolutionizes it, like open world did with ARPGs back before open world became a meme.
>>376054518
never said that, but it's definitely the closest thing to a mainstream racing game I know about.
also, item-less mario kart is fun my dude. 150cc and above it becomes a comfy super fast racing game

>>376054726
you seem to be putting an awful lot of assumption into what a sequel can be.

It's literally just a title with a number next to it, otherwise it can be essentially anything

>>376054726
>it becomes a comfy super fast racing game
A good racing game isn't even comfy, it's tense and exciting. I know Mario Kart is super casual and that's why it's comfy but that's not what a racing game is supposed to be.

even as a switch owner I dont see the appeal of Arms?

I love Mario kart, I love Splatoon, but Arms looks so bland for a full price game. I already made the mistake of buying Pokken, Arms looks like the same deal.

Does anyone else wish we were getting a new Pokken game instead of arms? I felt like that could have been Nintendo's non-Smash fighting game, but they just killed support with it. It was a lot of fun but I only played machamp

>>376054846
corporations tend not to release games as sequels that are totally different from their namesake. that's just shitty business.
>>376054981
try 200 cc no items and tell me that shit's a cakewalk.

>>376055117
same my dude. I got so hype for Pokken but they fucking ruined it by making couch competitive require that shitty fucking tablet.

>>376055117
Have you watched tournament footage of it yet?

does a Nintendo drone actually believe that?

>>376055292
Diehard Sony fan here.
I have to admit Nintendo did an amazing job with Splatoon and ARMS. Credit where credit is due to be honest.

>>376055243
link that shit my negro

>>376055243

sorry but aside from smash there really arent any competitive games that come from Nintendo, so no I'm not really optimistic of the competitive scene for it when it most likely will turnout what >>376055242

>le disney face

>>376053512
Well care to explain your insight to someone who has seen the barebones of the media they presented? Because they aren't making this look more than what I said

>>376055242
>try 200 cc no items and tell me that shit's a cakewalk.
It is. I had perfect rounds on almost any track on 200cc on my first time. That's how I know that Mario Kart is not a racing game since never in my life was it so effortless to drive good.

>>376055694

I don't believe you but your point stands regardless. Being casual doesn't make it less of a racing game though. I just play online which is always guaranteed to be a challenge

>>376055918
Why don't we stop this game? You're a fan of the game with personal investment in it and you're getting heavily offended that I'm putting it below real racing game. That's just all the substance there is to you.

>>376056189
its a racing game. people race, and it's a game. it's not his problem that you're using the English language incorrectly

>putting it below a real racing game

he keeps going with "his" definition of a racing game

>>376056425
It's by definition of the genre a kart racer. Those are inherently different from real racing games. I can't believe I need to explain something as simple and fundamental as that to someone on /v/.

And they're gonna keep rehashing those three games once a year until the end of time.

>>376056526
say what you will about Splatoon being fun or not but don't pretend that doing what it did with paint wasn't the most creative thing to happen to the shooter genre in a while
>>376056553
yeah a cart racer is different than a racing simulator. both are racing games. I know because they're games and have the word "race" in the title. also this is all semantics

ARMS looks fun

>>376048283
>They Saved Racing Games
That was Forza Horizon

>They saved fighting games
MK9 Did that, even if MK9 isn't a "good" fighter

>They Saved shooting games
By all means, Overwatch did that.

>>376057920
>overwatch did that
I'm a nintenbro that's never played Overwatch but I absolutely agree with you.
they turned TF2 into an ASSFAGGOT. it was brilliant from a sales standpoint at least

>>376048283
>racing games
Those are kart games.

>shooting games
That's not Overwatch

>fighting games
How can you be this dumb? Arms is a party game at best.

>>376048283
They already saved the Fighting genre with Smash nearly twenty years ago.

>>376048283
The Mario Kart series is shit
Arms has no competitive potential competitive
Splatoon's only appeal is pedobait

>>376059140
