What's your least favorite thing about Nintendo?

[Jawile]

Honestly, their home consoles.

Don't get me wrong, I love all my Nintendo consoles, but I'd pay anything for an Xbox/PS-like Nintendo console. They just seem so backwards with their online and I hate that third-parties never develop for Nintendo.

Free to play games with microtranscations, would rather just pay full price for the full game. Pokemon shuffle was ok, you can get past it without microtransactions fairly simply without missing out on content (unless you started late and don't have good pokemon for the recent events/competitions). Picross and rumble world didn't give you access to everything because there was only a limited supply of currency in the games. Sure you can very slowly gain it, but the time that takes is so unreasonable it might as well not be possible.

Yeah this, but that's pretty much any platform nowadays, but yeah it's sad they are jumping on this.

my least favorite thing about Nintendo is how they limit production of certain items to intentionally make the items scarce. didnt they get into trouble back in the 80s or 90s for this?

The fact that there's only 4 games for my Wii U that I want/have. And I got my Wii U last Christmas and already there's stuff about the NX around? Makes it feel like getting a Wii U was a waste.

Also, several things about Nintendo Badge Arcade. Specifically, the bunny going on and on about some random game instead of letting me just get on with getting badges, and him mentioning paying to play every five seconds. Oh, and the game taking forever to load up and Nintendo giving EU the same Mario/Splatoon/AC badges while other regions have new badges. Uggggggh.

And when are we gonna get Gamecube games on VC?

I hate how they make you pay real money for DS wallpaper or for the badge arcade. I find it a complete waste and I will never buy it. And the fact the only free wallpaper is that Sonic wallpaper annoys me. They should have at least allowed us to pick the one free wallpaper we had.

Well i hate the games they released recently, even Paper Jam Bros. disappointed me. WHY ALPHADREAM YOUR GAMES ARE ALWAYS SO GOOD! HOW CAN YOU FAIL LIKE THIS!!

What ticks me off the most is how they hound you to pay for stupid stuff. Want to play online to trade Pokemon on Wonder Trade? Nope. First you have to download our long system update where we will then attack you and beg for you to pay for these new 3DS themes.
Screw off. I thought video game consoles were the only thing unaffected by advertisements. I was wrong, you cannot escape.

Before Happy Home Designer, I haven't purchased a 3DS game since ORAS. There just are not any good games anymore. They're either halfassed or you have to continuously pay for in game purchases in order to make the game playable. It's bull. Why can't I just pay for a game once and have the complete game? I get it, it's how to make more money but people need to stop giving them what they want or else they won't stop getting away with this crap.

Uh, this doesn't happen ever. ORAS has only gotten about 3 updates, but there are a lot of system updates. But both of them can be updated right then and there, you don't need to search for it on the eshop. No advertisements either. They also never take longer than like 5 minutes so they aren't long updates either.

When I first read this, I immediately went "but the 3DS has plenty of great games!" But then I couldn't think of one released between ORAS and HHD, so I guess you're right about that.

 

[superheroantics]

Region locking, their silly Youtube policy, not making consoles to directly compete with the other main entries, blatant arrogance because they're Nintendo and they can do what they want, ignoring beloved IPs everyone wants to see come back and rehashing the same ones (RIP Metroid)... the list goes on, really.

 

[TykiButterfree]

I wish they would make another Mario Sunshine. I tried Mario Galaxy, but the weird gravity made me motion sick.
It also shouldn't be so hard to find any of the cool looking amiibos.
Are they going to put their new rewards program up soon?
You shouldn't have to pay for 3ds themes.

 

[Jinglefruit]

The 'endo' in their name reminding me how they take in and absorb all my money.

They brought back 2-D games out of nostalgia and it was fun for 5 seconds but now they are lazy cash grabs. Same with all the spin-offs. Stop being ****wads and put effort into your games. All the non-gamers that were stoked to play disk golf on the Wii aren't going to stick around so you can't sell just hardware anymore. Bring back the effort.

Also, remarks are starting to get old. The only other game I'd want to see brought back in HD/updated is Mario 64 and even then a sequel would be better.
