There's a reason Skyward Sword doesn't have a 60 on metacritic. NoA knows EXACTLY what they're doing.

>>376368349
You act like this is a surprising turn of events.

>>376368470
Huh, I didn't realize I was that out of touch with cuck media journalists. Shit.

>>376368349
IT'S ALRIGHT IF NINTENDO DOES IT

Oh no, a compnay is marketing their new product! What ever shall we do!!!!!!!!!

It's fine when Nintendo does it though

>>376368519
That can't be why he was let go, right?

It would be too hilarious.

>>376368567
Did you even look at what's going on?

What's the problem here?

A major news outlet gives their new system a very positive review, so they retweet it to show to their fans that critics love it.

This isn't shady, this is OP being an overdramatic drama queen.

Hillary Clinton was just using CNN to "advertise" the election.

>>376368653
Did you read the tweet

>>376368653
NoA barely retweets anything, and "Say it to my face" Ben and the entire cuck rangers gang are jumping in to kiss ass in the reply chain.

>>376368567
>>376368606
>>376368660

Shhh dont listen to them Nintenbro. Lets bask in the glory of Nintendo remaking the 3ds AGAIN and still making money.

>>376368704
Yes, and the point still stands: You're being an overdramtic drama queen looking to create artificial drama.

>>376368349
>support Nintenjew in current year
Worst vidoe game company around, Nintendo and EA wear the shit crown with pride as their brain dead fans lap up all their brown run off.

>>376368349
Except for the fact that Nintendo games actually deserve those high scores.
In a world where Sony, Microsoft and EA buy scores, you need to get your hands dirty too.

Polygon is doing some dumb mini-series where they tweet a picture of Toad in a diaper every week in hopes that Nintendo will retweet it. This is Nintendo pulling their leg.
I'm not joking, Polygon is that fucking desperate for content.

>>376368349
After the treehouse shit, Switch being another weak gimmick platform, and literally everything else I can't say I'm surprised anymore. I'm just kinda over Nintendo, not even this can make me angry. I've accepted they only want to make shallow experiences now, with absolutely no mechanival depth or innovation to it and that they'll never make games I want again.

What did you expect from Nintendo of America? NoA is compromised.

Imagine being autistic enough to have a strong emotional reaction to this

>>376372938
The Switch must die

>>376372442
What else do they have, haven't a shitload of devs blacklisted them?

>>376373238
Wasn't that Kotaku? I don't remember.

You mean nintendo, now kys shill

>A tweet is grounds for disgust.
Your overreacting and reading into something that isn't there. If IGN or Gamespot did the same thing Nintendo would tweet at them. There Disney when it comes to video games out of all the people to get in bed with why a low level website like Polygon and not a big media conglomerate?

>>376375394
twitter is different from other social media. if a company interacts with another one, it's a marketing ploy almost every time. video game """journalists""" review nintendo games and consoles all the time, but nintendo rarely retweets or acknowledges them

>>376374995
>Sony takes the cake here when it comes to everything wrong with video games.
Such as?
No seriously, Sony wasn't in the videogame business when Nintendo was whipping retailers and devs.
Sony didn't bring in DLC or paid online, that was MS

Also Nintendo doesn't need to pay for scores, their fans do it for them.
TP deserved the 8.8 since it was "just" a good game but drones went wild.

So which one of you is going to take NoA/Polygon to court over an undisclosed amount of money/favors?

>>376376105
God, I'd love to see NoA finally gone. Who even needs that piece of shit. NoJ/NoE is all we need and NoE doesn't bitch about doing their fucking job

>>376368660

It's a joke, you retards. Polygon has an unfunny running joke about Nintendo retweeting a picture of Toad. It's just a jab at Polygon.

>>376376421

Exactly this. It's so fucking stupid.

>>376368349
>click on link, scroll down a bit

what the fuck

>>376376421
Shut up, man, this thread was the ultimate newfag filter

>>376376421
I'm ashamed that I actually find this funny. Something about the straight faced delivery works so well for me.

>>376376421

who watches these faggots

>>376377307

>>376371112
Europe is the one with government ratings boards that can forbid sales of games. They're cracking down on underage characters.

>>376377416
In what, 3-4 cuck countries?
Who gives a fuck, everything is banned in Germany and such anyways

>>376377629
If you're making an overseas localization for a game, it's easier to censor for the lowest common denominator instead of have an EU compliance version.

>>376368653

kek

it's like people have forgotten gamergate already

>>376377834
It sure did a number on Kotaku didn't it?

>>376368818
fuck off newfag

>>376377712
Do NoA and NoE always share localizations? Sometimes you see the title different between the two regions but are there cases where the actual game content is different?

>>376377940
Well there's the one example of Fire Emblem Awakening DLC with the picture that's easy to post on 4chan but then the text was censored.

>>376377834
probably because it affected nothing it was supposed to affect

>of America

There's no good companies anymore. They're all jews who are in-bed with journalists and people who shill for them.

I'm struggling to find a reason to get out of bed these days.

>>376378249
sure thing kotaku

>>376378448
it's still there

more people are reading it now than ever

women are still writing for it

so what's your point?

>>376369267
The problem with this anthem is the same problem the reverse one has. You assume everyone complaining about one entity would give a free pass to the other.

>>376378313
these same companies have been trying to get inside your ass for decades, it's just that the internet makes it easier to do
they didn't get more evil

>>376378794
I seriously doubt that since video games used to be made by passionate people and companies used to have something called a soul. But if that's really the case than video games have always been shit and we should all just kill ourselves for wasting our precious lives on this garbage.

>>376378952
Hey GAMERS buy Monthly Gamin Xtreme. Check out our SWIMSUIT ISSUE with famous comic book artists drawing the HOTTEST VIDEO GAME GIRLS. This game gets a 1000/10 buy now.

>>376379049
Marketers were always degenerates, they didn't make up 90% of the industry though.

>>376379109
They still don't.
Marketers only do marketing, they don't make games.

>>376379186
Marketers are the people who dictate what the game should be. They tell the devs to cut shit and re-sell it, they tell them to make the protagonist black or a woman. They decide what kind of game the devs are making, not, you know, the devs themselves.

No more "we made this game because it was fun" it's "we made this game because it will sell regardless of quality."

>>376377307
I do. It's funny.

>>376374767
Pewdiepie is based tho. So is Sony® make.believe™.

Why is /v/ so fucking trash? Sometimes it seems that half of the people here just come here to talk shit about video games and jump on the newest hate train wether or not they know anything about the game or series they're talking about. It's disgusting how much this place fell.

Literally the only thing Polygon is good for is Griffin and Justin Mcelroy with Monster Factory and Peacecraft. Also the site's design is pretty good too, if it wasn't full of such fucking pussies.

I thought most of /v/ hated this fag.

>>376368349
m8 do you even know what treehouse is? NoA has had sjews for a while now

>>376381280
His whole persona and intro/outtro is cringeworthy but if you skip past all the garbage he makes some pretty good points in his videos.

I hate Tim Schafer but think Psychonauts is a great game. I hate Peter Molyneux but Fable 1 was pretty good. I hate Anthony Burch and I don't like any of his work. But most people in the industry are still around because they do decent work.

>>376379325

Anti Nintendo posters BTFO once again. First it was the ARMS button controls thread and now this. When will they ever learn, Nintenbros?

>>376381280
Sonybros love him because he sucked off Horizon: Zero Dawn like the cheap he-whore he is.

>>376381280
Sony ponies like him because he's the only one shilling their blockbuster games?

>>376381515
>Make character black or female because it adds depth and perspective to the character and their story

>Make character black or female because market research determined it will make the game sell more copies

One of these is an example of writing a decent character, the other is shameless pandering. I'll let you figure out which is which.

>>376368349
Hurr Durr
It's a fucking inside joke, retard. Learn the fucking context before making stupid accusations.

>>376383007
>>Make character black or female because market research determined it will make the game sell more copies

this has literally never happened

>>376368606
>That can't be why he was let go, right?
He got let got two days after the article went up. If it wasn't the primary reason, it's still awfully suspicious.

Nah, it's already been observed. Once he gave HZD 9.5 and BOTW 7.0 (ie, he's the only one with taste that shit) Sony ponies have fellated his crusty dick

>>376383343
I really want to play both games, but I really just can't help but shake my head at the notion that people freaked out over thinking he didn't like BotW. I hate the mentality if you don't think X is 10/10 you hate it.

Dude looks like he's gonna transition any day

>>376383294
Right, you said something just as stupid, that not once in the history of video games has any market analyst suggested that a video game feature a protagonist of a certain gender or race because their research showed it should result in higher sales figures.

>>376383606
You must be looking at photos of his wife, common mistake.
