This is what you wanted. You bought the PS4. You told the industry this was okay and yet there was the Wii U with that feature that you oh-so-conveniently ignored.

Same with paid online. If you have PS+, you're the reason Switch will be charging for online.

Reminder that Kimishima is saving Nintendo and making them great again.

The only decent Nintendo games can all be emulated. At least if Nintendo died we wouldn't have to deal with them aggressively protecting their abandonware.

>>379823802
I assure you, I know far more about Nintendo than you likely do, to the level some would call "autistic obsession". I know every game, every accessory, every system model they ever made. I study their history and backlog as a hobby.

>>379823195
Microsoft has always had legacy support though

>>379823195
And Sony proliferated it. Would Nintendo have followed along if literally every console manufacturer besides them was now doing it?

Sony could've taken the high-road but they didn't.

Wew

Kimishima thought knew the wii u was gonna fail. And Mobile games started up far before iwata died, fagt

Nintendo, like most things digital, died in 2006.

>>379823909
Lol switch has no games by /v/'' 's definition.

>>379823195
And Sony perpetuated it only with the addition of fucking you over even harder.

>>379824807
Let's be honest, neo /v/ doesn't know what a game is anymore. They're the type of people who would praise Gone Home and TLOU over games like Banjo or Xenoblade.

>>379825014
I was talking about exclusives.

Somehow a console having Battlefield, Call of Duty, and Overwatch doesn't count as games.

BOTW and Mario Cart 8 aren't exclusives.

>>379823517

Yeah but back then we had to work to get that hot fucking shit to show up. Now there's no effort needed for lewd bitches to be plastered all over the screen.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's an improvement.

>The Nintendo of motion controls, of casual-focused games and marketing, of Iwata Asks and 3D displays, of Wii branding and touchscreens, of children, of senior citizens, of Miiverse and Brain Age and Wii Sports, of legacy support and eShop experiments, is dead, and it died in 2015.

Umm am I supposed to be sad? Also Iwata started the phone garbage and esports. Millennials are 36 year olds to people age 19 I'm saying this because /v/ and a lot of this site seem to be under the impression that much younger people are millennial's when they aren't and infact most of the people with millennial rage are unknowingly millennial's themselves.. Gen X (my parent's age) don't care about games or at least they didn't grow up with them and they aren't a regular part of their lives to the extent that they're for people even slightly younger than the lowest hanging Gen X fruit. Nintendo needed good online service it was a continuing embarrassment that they couldn't get something so basic right and they will probably still fuck this up anyway with at least one major title. Don't get your panties in a bunch about "core gamers" I'm sure Reggie will still make at least one cringe worthy remark about "needing to broaden the appeal away from our core fanbase" that you corporate dick riders love to hear so much. He says this at least one time at each E3 and the so called "Legendary 2004 event" Had a whole half hour of him telling the fan base to fuck off we don't need you segments interspersed throughout the presentation.

Why do people like the figureheads of these companies? Are they your best friends from school or some shit? Iwata was a business man who would rip you off if he could get away with it and believe me he tried.

>>379818729
Kimishima is focused on what makes money, anon. Right now that's smartphones and competitive games (via events and DLC content like characters or lootboxes).

It could be worse. What if Iwata had made good on his promise to steer Nintendo on a path of caring about "health", or whatever ambiguous meaning that Nintendo Direct was about. We will never know.

The Switch is an interesting concept. The WiiU was better, but developers couldn't figure out how to make games for it that were interesting. The Switch's gimmick is much simpler, it'll spark a lot more interest.

I don't want to think of a future where the last actual Video Game company leaves the console market, leaving behind two megacorps that only care about immediate profits. On the other end, the gap left by Ninty calling it quits would open up space for a new company to show up.

its sad that since Iwata passed away

Nintendo marketing seems to be shamelessly throwing out paid DLC and other greedy tricks

I missed Iwata bro

Still waiting for the more aggressive IP licensing Iwata talked about a bit before passing. The theme park trailer just came out, now I wait for movies, tv series and anime.

I get what you're saying, but how do asses make up for badly designed games with shit mechanics? Sure, they compliment games that are already good, much like good graphics in general do, but what if the base game is so shit it's beyond saving?

Mai's ass is the icing on the cake for a game as good as the King of Fighters '98, but no amount of ass could save Shaq Fu.

why should it be free? because you don't want to pay?

>paid online
I'm glad I'm not getting a switch

Lots of people would praise Nintendo in the past for not doing paid online, for not doing bloom and shit, etc etc, but recent years have shown that Nintendo isn't actually better than those companies, they were just behind them.

When the industry is going downhill, the people who drag their feet look better.

>>379831334
Why should it cost? Because big yakuza daddy Kimishima told you it should? This ain't the 90s anymore, grandpa. Game servers have no reason to cost a premium, especially lackluster ones like Nintendo's. Have you ever played Smash 4's online? I'm glad I don't have to play for that shit. It's laggy even when both me and a guy a small distance a way play with ethernet adapters. Why bother charging for what's likely only marginally improved online? Sony is also bullshitting us by charging for online now.

>>379831549
by that logic, nothing should cost money.

>>379831252
>Splatoon nigger doesn't understand a thing about controllers
Who would have thought.

>>379832009
What the fuck are you trying to say? I never implied this AT ALL and you still haven't answered my question of why shitty, subpar online on a console that doesn't even natively support wired connections should cost money. Online is free on PC, used to be free on Wii U Wii, DS, 3DS, and Gamecube, Satellaview was free outside of the music station. Only time Nintendo ever charged for basic online was N64DD Randnet. Why bother switching back to paid services now? What's the point? Especially when the actual service isn't even worth the payment given its lackluster performance.

>>379820010
gyro control can actually be good thought

>>379825174

It's operating from the logic that anyone who goes to /v/ has a minimum standard of knowledge about the medium and isn't a casual normie and knows how to use a PC, and so logically playing any sort of shooter, which is what most games are these days, on anything other than a PC is extremely fucking retarded unless you can only get it on a specific machine and even then every game which has a multi-platform release usually is inferior in every single category to its PC counterpart and sometimes even has less content to boot.

Basically nobody counts Skyrim or Doom for consoles because you have to be too poor or stupid to be playing those games on something like a PS4.
