Speaking of Sony and Microsoft, they're the ones who are putting out entirely free multiplayer games, like Let It Die and Sea of Thieves. Arms and Splatoon only get open betas and one free weekend, which are things that are found in scores on not just PC, but occasionally on the other 7th and 8th Gen consoles as well. Not to mention that, if we're talking about demos, Nintendo is the one who actively limits the number of times you can launch one.

t-thanks nintendo

I don't hate Nintendo, I'm just evidently not the target market. The most egregious thing they've done in my mind is the DLC for the new Fire Emblems. It's out of control and worse than even Square Enix and EA, and I'd sooner replay Mankind Divided before any one Fire Emblem game. Other than that I'd personally say Iwata as president was a mistake, but it wasn't really a crime. Just one misstep among many.

Also I already played No Man's Sky, so BotW had little affect on me

I liked Nintendo but they've made so many bad choices as always, like the pointless 3D effect on the 3DS, the poor online on their consoles, region locking on 3DS and Wii U, their horribly underpowered consoles, obsession with gimmicks, and for everything that turns out good like BoTW they make missteps everywhere else like Paper Mario or Fed Force or splitting up Fire Emblem into 3 games

Ok well Microsoft just rebuilt Phantom Dust without access to the final source code and released it for free. New resolutions now properly displays textures in a way the original Xbox couldn't, and they edited the shop to allow both a better balanced single player campaign and let peeps immediately jump into multiplayer.

Or the boss fights. Or the online play.

What does that have to do with anything? You said X has accomplishments, so I inquired. Now you're talking about Y and Z.

Regardless, I couldn't give a flying fuck about Sony or Microsoft. I own a PS4 more as a gamble than anything, a wager that developers I like will develop for it. It shouldn't even be noteworthy that Nintendo's hardware is consistently underpowered in the goofy world of locked computers, but it is, because they are. All I really care about are developers, and developers don't seem very attracted to Nintendo's units, so all you've got are a half dozen second-party groups and EAD/EPD, both of which I'm consistently disappointed in.

At the end of the day Sony, at least this time around, have more chances for lightning to strike. I don't know how they did it, but that's pretty much all there is to it.

>>379016921
That's what an argument is, though. Two (minimum) people presenting contradictory opinions about a subject.

I will never understand why people get emotionally invested in corporations.

>>379016910

Except most of their games aren't XBL shovelware, same with PSN, sure there's bad months but they offer very good games on occassion.

Seriously, try arguing in good faith, if you claim XBL or Sony stuff doesn't count then Nintendo's old games don't count either.

>>379012458
>>Only company that still cares about their consumer base (free games every month with online)

So that is how you fags are spinning it. I should be surprised since this is the third time I've seen this happen.

>>379016910
Anyone with a PC from this century can emulate the entire NES/SNES library, and besides that for me I still own all my old consoles and games so I hardly count "free" games from 20 years ago I can already play a benefit or justification for paying.

>>379017419

There's one thing I'm not clear one, the wording seems to imply you can download and play them for a month, but it can't just be a month right? No company would be that Jewish to offer free stuff and only let you keep it for that month.

Even MS lets you keep your shit without XBL.

Thats what I've gathered so far as well which cements my argument even further.

Yeah, nah. They jumped on the open world meme bandwagon and did little interesting or new with it. It's still as big and empty and pointless as all the other trash in that category.
>Only company that still cares about their consumer base (free games every month with online)
>Only company willing to give free multiplayer game demos that you can actually play online (again, Arms and Splatoon)
I wish I read this far ahead of time, but you now have my permission to fuck right off. All the other companies do the same fucking shit. They're called betas and both Xbox Live and PS+ offer """""free""""" games with their optional (non-optional) subscription service. You're buttering up the facts for no fucking reason.

Why are people upset? Because Nintendo is refusing a proper online network service and is instead choosing to rely on a smart phone app and some backwards ass 3.5mm analog cable solutions. You want analog audio for headset communications? Fine, but it shouldn't involve three fucking cables coming from two separate devices to get it done. But you know what? If it were free then I wouldn't even bitch because it's at least a step up from the Wii U. But no, that's not the fucking case here either; they're charging $20 a year for the most ass backwards bullshit version of an online service. Fuck off.

Nigger, how difficult is it to come up with your own character models, your own content and name the game "NOT METROID". Oh that's right, you won't get brownie points with cuckolds online and you can't ride off of established IPs because you're a lazy shit with no creativity to speak of.

>>379019096

The federation force final boss is a possessed Samus or whatever, you fight her in a giant morphball form.

>>379019098

The game is nothing like CoD, the movement system is absurd and even the wall running CoDs don't move as fast as your average titanfall match, its dead in the sense that it has a very small community, but that community is very dedicated, though as a result new people rarely get into it because they always get crushed.

Not that guy but I do agree that Nintendo has the right to shut down those projects if they really wanted to. It's a sensitive subject that devalues Nintendo's core brands. It sucks but it is what it is. Freedom Planet is a good example of this; for all intents and purposes it might as well be a Sonic game but it's actually an original IP.

Now, all that being said, if Nintendo tried to stop the Mother 3 translation then they would lose all of my respect. It's one thing to shut down side projects infringing on your IP but it's another thing entirely to stop a fan translation for a game you had decided not to port for years. That's where I draw the line.

>>379018793
If Nintendo's team of professional developers can't outdo some spic in his basement then that's pretty fucking sad.

Honestly saying that Titanfall 1 and 2 are CoD rip-offs pretty much tells you right away that the person saying it has no clue what they're talking about.

Federation force was their shot at it. Once people disliked the ever-loving fuck out the video and hardly anyone bought it, they got mad at the am2r praise.
I have a feeling nintendo hayes metroid now. I remember they hated conker's bad fur day due to the violence, that's probably the reason they made federation force. It lacks everything that made metroid good.

>>379019623
Yes you delusional faggot

>>379019402

They're not even using those brands. Hell fucking Capcom took that silly Megaman vs SF game and made it official, Nintendo could do same with ASMR2 if they wanted, give people something ya know, make some money off someone elses work but they don't even wanna do that.

Really the core issue is how Nintendo is super Japan centric and Metroid does well only in the US, Other M went full on pandering waifu faggorty and it failed, either that or its more Miyamoto meddling since he can't just let something sit, he has to try to re-invent shit only for it to get worse.

I'm not going to hold back on saying it because I read constant hate on the shooter genre. Those are literally games for little kids. You can argue kids play shooters but arms and splatoon were literally created for 4-8 year olds. "silly fun with bright colorful characters"

>>379019452
It's true though. With Poke'mon Uranium, I have a brand new, high quality Poke'mon adventure for free. I'll play this for a few months and maybe by then the new Poke'mon game will be on sale.

It's a broad generalization but that's the idea. You're costing Nintendo potential sales by directly attracting their customers. On the other hand, if it were an original IP then Nintendo couldn't do shit but at the same time it wouldn't gather anywhere near as much attention either. The only reason people do fan games is because the audience is already there and a lot of the art direction has already been established. That's a lot of work already done but it comes at a small cost to the IP holder. Don't get me wrong, it sucks that Nintendo never released their Metroid 2 remake for the Game Boy Color or that they'll never make Metroid: Dread, but fan games aren't the answer. The fans should make original IPs, period. It can be Metroid in everything but name but as soon as you slap the name on there you start treading dangerous waters for such little gain.

>hordes all of their IPs on their shitty gimmicky console

Some Nintendo games these days are still pretty fun and maybe worth buying, but I don't see any of them worth buying that piece of shit and dealing with their online system just to play them. Nintendo needs to fuck off out of the console wars and go third party.

The hype for BoTW is already dying out because of all the missed opportunities they had with the game. I'd be willing to let it slide normally, but not after being delayed for 4 years. It's good that they did something new, but fuck me if I didn't buy into the hype as much I wouldn't be as let down.

Arms seems nice but I'm not really a fan of online games. I want more single player shit damn it. Would it kill them to port over some fucking snes, gba and wii games?

I've been thinking of hacking mine to play gamecube games and shit.
Don't know if it's really worth it though.
I only have Bayo 2, Wonderful 101, and the metroid prime collection for it.
It feels like I dodged a bullet, but at the same time I literally only have 3 games for the fucking thing.

>>379020731
I might consider it anon but I'm still waiting on those good Nintendo games to come out first.

>>379020731
But they are. Most of Nintendo shit is emulateable.

>>379020870
If there aren't any good games then why are you mad about it in the first place?
>>379020875
Why emulate it if it's shit?

>>379020349
>Nintendo needs to fuck off out of the console wars and go third party.
I hate to say it but I almost agree. I appreciate that Nintendo is always trying new shit and I like that the Switch tries to bridge the gap between home and portable consoles but they're push for motion controls, touch screens, and other gimmicks as always been an annoyance for me. They're online network was also always really poor but at least it was free. Now they're charging for it and they're doing some ass backwards shit with it too. The sad part is that they won't have to fix anything because it's still going to sell gangbucks. I just hope the competition doesn't look at Nintendo and see that they can get away with less.

>>379020851
Nah man its totally worth it. You already have a Wii U, might as well. I know nothing about technology and shit and it took me like an hour to do. You basically just copy some files to an SD card and put it in your wiiU, and let it do the rest.
Plus GC games look great through HDMI.
I'd definitely check out Splatoon, Yoshi's Woolly World, DKTF, 3D World, Smash, and Pikmin 3 since they're free.

>>379020963
Not him but I'd be mad too if a salesman kept trying to sell me shit and he won't leave because everyone around me kept buying his shit.

>>379020875
The one console I still own is a modded Wii that can play all of their games up to that system.

>>379020963
Wasn't trying to come off as angry, just annoyed. From an outside perspective seeing Nintendo still in the race despite being clearly inferior in just about every way to the other two is kind of depressing.

>>379019536
But that CoD spent three years in development and was made by a new company(sledgehammer) for the CoD franchise. Not saying advanced warfare was fun(only ever played it with friends because we gameshared on psn and bantered a lot) but it wasn't a rip off last second change to the clunky jumpy arena shooter CoD was just because Titanfall was announced

>>379021059
What else can you do with a hacked Wii U? I already own most of the games I care to play on it. Is there anything else special I can do with it? I assume that general emulation (NES, Genesis, ect.) is a given.

>>379013764
same here when do I get invited to rooftop parties to show strangers how fun the micro math management of pokemon is.

>Only company that still cares about their consumer base (free games every month with online)

>Only company that still cares about their consumer base
Amiibos, ridiculous DLC (see Fire Emblem, NSMB2), full price remasters that add nothing of significance (Zelda in particular).

It has retroarch. It can emulate every Nintendo system except 3DS and Switch. You can also inject DS and GBA games if they aren't on the eshop.
I've heard it has PS1 emulation but I haven't tried that myself.
There's a homebrew app that lets you use the gamecube adapter (or any other USB controller) for any Wii U game, it replaces a pro controller input. So you can play WWHD with the GC controller and shit
Also has access to all of the Wii homebrew, so you can use stuff like Nintendont and USB Loader GX

>>379021168
Inferior, except for the games which you just said you play on your modded Wii. The games are the most important part of the hobby.
>>379021124
Nintendo isn't a salesman. They're not approaching you and selling you anything.
I'm not going to get mad at Dole for having bananas at the grocery store just because I don't like bananas. I could just...not buy them.

>>379021187
Basically this. Respawn Entertainment, founded by two main Infinity Ward members, saw what Sledgehammer was going for and put their own spin on it. They did a really damn fucking good job at it too as Titanfall was new, interesting, and polished, albeit with several flaws. Titanfall 2 smoothed out the edges significantly and it's not perfect but it's the best damn multiplayer shooter of its kind right now. However, anyone saying that CoD ripped off TF isn't gathering all the facts. No one necessarily ripped off one another but it's important to understand that no one was entirely original either.

>>379021519
Why would you emulate on a Wii U instead of a Raspberry pi or a toaster windows PC? At least with systems like the PSP/Vita you had the portability advantage.

>>379021532
Of course anon but I'm talking about hardware. Why does Nintendo feel the need to come up with a gimmicky underpowered half mobile/half console machine each generation that their games are only available on and gets minimal third party dev support compared to the others? And why is this system packaged with horrid online and support? Why?

Do they actually think they can pull off what they did with the Wii ten years ago and have every other 40-something ultracasual buy a Switch then immediately abandon it in the cabinet under their TV to collect dust? If that's what they are actually hoping to achieve with a cheap gimmick then why is their marketing for it so shitty? Nothing makes sense. I don't particularly like the other consoles either but at least they have modern hardware and decent dev support.

>>379021886
I like the gamepad's ergonomics for GBA games, it kind of feels like a jumbo GBA.
And playing DS games on a Wii U is better than PC because it has a touch screen. Maybe not as a good as a flashcart but still good
And I prefer to play N64 and GC games on Wii U because I can still do local multiplayer with my friends and I can even use N64 controllers on Wii U through a USB adapter

>>379022068
Like I said, if the games are fun that is what matters.

I like video games a lot. Anyone making video game hardware, software, and accessories are adding it to a potential pool of things I can buy. I like to spend the time considering all of my options in what I should buy, especially since this shit gets expensive down the road. Nintendo is, by far, doing it the worst and they're not going anywhere. That's the part that sucks. They make a few excellent games a year but that doesn't excuse their shitty service and stupid ass gimmicks. Maybe the inferior hardware makes it easier for them to develop games but it hasn't stopped developers from making great games on the competition's hardware.

>>379012848
>Protecting you IP is now an act of hate against fans.
Call me a corporate shill, but if those games weren't stopped, a flood a shitty fan games would overwhelm the internet.

>>379012458
Why do Nintendo fans think people are just going to forget the years of bullshit they've given us just because they made a new Zelda game that everyone likes?

>>379012458
Bait but
>willing to take risks with new and existing IP
Horizon and days gone are new IP, and GoW is completely different from past ones
>only dev to care about their consumer base
PS+ games are still great, most new games are usually 10 percent off if you pre-order the week before release, and weekly deals are great
>free multiplayer games
PS+ actually has free games covering such genres as MMORPG, Sports, MOBA, racing, sims, and arcades. PS+ also gives you access to great beats like the assassins creed multiplayer, or the uncharted multiplayer, or the For Honor multiplayer and so on

>>379022459

A flood of shitty fan games already overwhelm the internet you stupid fuck.

The only reason those got stopped is because they got a lot of press.

For real, i dislike Nintendo due Mario eternal shilling with games like Mario Tennis, Mario Soccer, Mario Bocce and censor and localization shit.

>>379022168
How you play the games matters too. The N64 controller would be deemed unusable by today's standards. It's a problem that the Wii U is stuck with a huge ass controller. It's ridiculous that Nintendo is pushing for online play with Switch without a proper in game chat system. It's insane that this would be unacceptable for the competition but Nintendo will continue to profit from the bare minimum. They're like the spoiled rich kid that gets a free pass for doing minimum effort. Some of their games are excellent but Splatoon 2 and ARMS is worthless since they're behind an online paywall that offers so little to the consumer. If Switch had in game party chat and a wireless headset then I wouldn't bitch so much.

>>379022704
It's fine if they're shitty because then no one would play them anyway. It's a problem if they're good though. Why buy the new Pokemon when Uranium has the same level of polish? I wouldn't know because I don't actually play Pokemon but I definitely understand the concern. Trying to make a serious effort project with a major IP is always asking for trouble.

>>379022963
>N64 controller would be deemed unusable by today's standards
Well yeah, it came out almost 20 years ago. I would say the same for the original PS1 analog and the Dreamcast controller too. Technology is better now.

>It's a problem that the Wii U is stuck with a huge ass controller
It's really very comfortable to me. You can buy a pro controller anon. A bigger problem is the Xbox D-pad, they still haven't gotten it right after all this time.

The online thing is a legitimate complaint though I've never had a problem not using chat on Splatoon or any other online game, Nintendo or not.

>>379017000
You forgot
>and then they went full retard and made it an Xbone exclusive, alienating everyone and anyone who was interested in it in the first place not only by muddying the well but outright shitting in it
I'm PC+Sony+Nintendo and I couldn't give less of a fuck if they eat shit and die. I'm also not going to touch the sequel. They deserve to eat shit and die for sucking Microsoft dick.

>>379022963
To be fair the n64 was the first 3d console. Too bad when they release the near perfect GC controller they then regress into the chaos of Wiimotes and nunchucks and gamepads while offering the acceptable Pro controller as a side purchase.

>>379023140
Fan games would only appeal to adults, and adult pokemon fans are manchildren who would only buy official releases for proper online play and back support with previous gens rather than enjoy the actual game story. I never followed Uranium but that sounds like too much for a fan game.

Half of the people shitting on Nintendo right now are long time fans who are pissed about getting shit on

How is this a problem? Developers should absolutely compete to prove that their games are worth the money instead of playing free imitations. When a multi-billion dollar long-time professional game company gets outclassed by a couple of guys that do it for free, that's pretty fucking embarrassing.

>>379012458

don't worry it is OK when Nintendo does it :^)

>>379012458
You know what, you are right, anon.

Nintendo is the best and I can see it clearly now.

It is not like Nintendo could screw up this great thing they have going.

Oh, but here is the thing, I don't have a smartphone, or the money for the extra headset, adapters, and wires that are needed to use the online voice chat system and, with my current job, by the time I will make enough money for all that, I will not be able to afford the online fees that they are charging in January.

I know, I will make a fan game in order to raise money! Surely Nintendo will be cool with me making a fan game for their beloved and well remembered Metroid series.

Oh, and before I go off to spend the next year of my life on this fan game, I gottas ask, do you know how to play virtual console games on the Switch? (I bought all of them on my Wii U and do not see a feature to play them on my Switch, which sucks, because I sold my Wii U to buy the Switch, but I must just have not found the feature yet, right?)

By the way, does anyone have an estimated time on Nintendo's returns? I sent them my Switch because it had dead pixels out of the box, but they said they are sending it back without fixing it, because dead pixels are acceptable and to be expected. (They are replacing my Left Joy-Con though, or, rather, fixing it for me, by using some foam piece or something, but all I had to do was pay shipping, so it all worked out).

>>379025119

>>379012458
All you gotta do is ignore them and enjoy what you love

>>379025730
>>with my current job, by the time I will make enough money for all that, I will not be able to afford the online fees that they are charging in January.
What kind of job could you possibly be working that you couldn't make a simple 20 dollaroonies? Do you work in a Chinese sweatshop?

>>I know, I will make a fan game in order to raise money! Surely Nintendo will be cool with me making a fan game for their beloved and well remembered Metroid series.
Nintendo's not the only company that C&Ds games, and you should know that you couldn't make a profit off of a fangame if you wanted to. Fangames are just that, games made by fans, and if you're only making it for profit, then I'd question if you actually are a fan.

Most of your arguments fall completely flat, and the only reasonable thing you asked is about the VC stuff, which I can only assume is going to be apart of the online streaming service, and the shit about dead pixels.

Nintendo does deserve the hate though.
Because they're slowly becoming like every other shitty company. Starting with the season pass shit. Part of which involved repackaging an older mechanic and putting a pricetag on it.
Now they are charging for their abysmal online play for no justified reason, the Switch has a massive game drought until Christmas and is only selling on advertising just like the PS4 did during its drought period, and the Switch itself is a shoddily designed piece of hardware.
Not only that but the overall quality of their games has been dipping for a while and they've abandoned so many of their IPs.
As someone who has disliked both Microsoft and Sony for a while, I no longer like what Nintendo is doing either and will likely stop buying their consoles and games.

Creating original work is a lot more enjoyable as an artist, but just like with making games, as an amateur, fan art is nearly a necessity if you want to turn heads.

>>379012458
Nintendo are constant fuckups. They are one of the few holdouts of a popular company that doesn't really hold any dialogue with fans. How they pick and choose what to listen to is nebulous to say the least. Sometimes they ignore the stream of 10/10s for something like Skyward Sword, hear the cries of staleness from fans, and make Breath of the Wild. Sometimes they look at an online survey and take that as gospel for what people want out of Paper Mario. They make brilliant stuff sometimes but "inconsistent" is the perfect descriptor for them.

>>379027194
>the cries of staleness from fans
Except most fans had issues with the motion controls and easiness, mostly. The formula itself wasn't the issue.
Breath of the Wild is missing a lot of the good things of the series, though still a decent game, but undeserving of the pedestal people put it on.

>>379022686
I also think OP is bait but for the sake of discussion I've got to say that his point about risky new IPs was probably more about how the games looked to play rather than them just being new. Days Gone looks like the safest "new" game anyone ever invested money into, and God of War fans not on /v/ all welcomed the shitty movie game direction it decided to go in. Horizon's biggest risk was having a plain Jane female lead, and while it's certainly pretty it didn't do much to rock the boat. Fast travel as a consumable was a neat idea.

>>379023140
I don't think this was their concern because Uranium was trash and reeked of being a fan-game from minute one.

Why are you hating the company if you're not spending your money on their products and services?

>>379012458
>>Only dev willing to take risks with a new IP (Splatoon, Arms)
Not even remotely true. And I can't believe you're brining Splatoon 2 into this when it's the biggest rehash they've ever shit out. Most people don't even recognize it as an actual sequel, it's so samey
>>Only dev not afraid to reinvent only series (BotW)
Again not true. Just this year we got RE7 which was a radical departure from the series. FFXV was very different. Hell, all BotW did was ripoff Skyrim. So risky.
>>Only company that still cares about their consumer base (free games every month with online)
Lol are you for real? Yeah I think DMCA'ing AM2R really shows how much they care about their fans. And I'll just take your free roms as a joke, especially since they massively backpedaled on that because of how universally terrible everyone thought it was.
>>Only company willing to give free multiplayer game demos that you can actually play online (again, Arms and Splatoon)
That you can only play for very specific 1 hour windows? You can't even play the Splatoon 2 demo anymore.

>>379013094
Let It Die wasn't developed or published by Sony.

>>379027501
Well the formula of the five 3D Zelda games before Breath of the Wild was only good in the N64 games where the dungeons interesting overarching puzzles and less handholding. So in truth it hasn't been expanded upon properly since Majora.

To say that people weren't bitching about this shit getting old at Skyward Sword though is total revisionism. Perhaps that issue of easiness plus the staleness were not mutually exclusive problems and likely fed into the negative fan response together. Breath of the Wild is a different kind of game to be sure but if you really comb through the praise from more scrutinizing sources is for its world design and interactivity being leagues above other open world games, where the world may as well be window dressing. Not so much it being the definitive Zelda experience. Obviously there are folks saying that too, but they're probably fucking normalfags.

Platinum game, not Sony. Not even Sony exclusive

My gripe with nintendo is this. So they're going to charge for online still yes? It's free now because there is no multiplayer games even out. When multiplayer games DO come out, isn't it just like splatoon and mario kart? I can see now they aren't getting 3rd party. (they don't have battlefield 1, overwatch, cod, nba2k, madden, dark souls, etc.)
So unless they start getting 3rd party games that every other platform already has, then their multiplayer fee is retarded.

>>379029185

How are people this retarded. No company gives you free games. Not Sony, not Microsoft, not Nintendo.
