Article

While the article is too biased, it lists some undeniable merits of Nintendo, they make some pretty good games and their hardware is pretty durable, 15 year old systems still work great. And it did revive the industry.

Can't say I think they make the best games of all time, but for the most part I agree with the article.

The Nintendo makes the greatest games ever and everyone will eventually get tired of other companies games is very biased.

What are you getting defensive about though, I said the article had merits after all.

It doesn't say that everyone will eventually grow tired of every other game, just that Nintendo games tend to last much longer than most other games. When you still have people playing games from the 80s like Super Mario Bros. today, you gotta admit that Nintendo's games really do stand the test of time.
 
Kayso. Opinions.

Durable: OK, sure. I don't honestly think that I'm going to think of them better because it's "OHSO DURABLE"

Hype: Sony and Microsoft get the same hype. Nothing special.

Best Games: BIASBIASBIAS

Accessible for all ages: That's a turn off for me. I don't want anymore shovelware games, or wagglefests for seniors and babies.

Unstoppable franchises: Valid point.

Miyamoto: Jesus Christ, enough of using him as an example. He's not behind every *censored.3.0*ing Nintendo game.

Revived Industry: Alright. I honestly don't really care, though, because I wasn't alive in the '80s.

Risks: WiiMote was a success? If it was that great, why did they have to make a new attachment? That's right, it's got some of the crappiest responses I've ever seen. I turn my controller around until my wrist cracks, and it doesn't detect it.

Jack made a smart. :D
 
Of course i'd say Ninty is the best publisher of all time because of all the years of great games, and financially they are the best as well, because of their new target of casual games, but Sony and Microsoft only really just make the consoles, with them relying mainly on third part content, so when it comes to the games themselves you can't compare the 3 companies. In all cases though, Nintendo is only financially superior.
I also like how you're being a hypocrit once again Tye.
 
Yes, Nintendo most certainly did make good games back in the day. They had the best console around. Nowadays, not so much. The Wii? Poor excuse for a system. If Nintendo just stuck with their Gamecube formula and made quirky but fun games without the use of WAGGLAN, than I would still respect them as a company. And like Jak said, if they're motion control was so perfect, than why is an extra peripheral being released?

Now this is a message to all gaming companies/publishers: Quit catering to casual gamers and give your true gaming fanbase something to chew on. No, I don't want Natal, or Wii Fit 2.5 deluxe running edition, or Carnival Games 3.

OH GAWD.

Sony, please don't go motion control. I like pressing buttons, not struggling with gimmicks.

Seriously. It makes me sick to my stomach when Sony and Microsoft try to appeal to casuals. Nintendo's already dead, but hopefully the other two don't go down the same road in search of quick cash.

Which leads me to my next point: Go PC gaming and you never have to worry about casuals. Computers are too complicated to upgrade and maintain for 78 year old gramma and my 11 year old sister, leaving no market for casuals. Hell yeah. :D

Exactly. MASTER RACE IN DA HOUSE, BRO.


Also, there is a reason why pretty much all of the PS3/360/PC games never make it to Wii. Great games such as GTA IV, Battlefield Bad Company 2, Bioshock, Mirrors Edge, Fallout 3, Oblivion, Orange Box, Left 4 Dead, and Far Cry 2. Wii has such a pitiful variety of games when compared to other consoles.

But I wanna play Wii Sports version 5!

Joking aside, I agree with beehdaubs, aside from the PC master race. I still love my consoles.
