Idk how people still stomach Nintendo. They get 1 decent exclusive every other year, while the rest of the time, they are overcharging for all their garbage products. Most anticonsumer, anticompetition developer on the market that releases products that lag behind the rest of the industry by 5-10 years.
They crush emulation and antique game preservation sites as a hobby.
How is yet another Mario game worth coming back to?
I don’t know why you are getting downvoted. Their actions against yuzu and citra are particularly egregious, and unforgivable in my eyes. Especially, considering they use emulation in their own products. For instance, the nes mini used roms download from the Internet. I’ll think twice about buying Nintendo products in the future, and I love Nintendo products.
Nintendo isn’t against emulation. They’re against piracy, which Yuzu was facilitating. None of the emulators that don’t have specific support for unreleased games have been touched so far.
Lies. They have taken down multiple classic emulation websites over the years. Yuzu was only the most recent victim of their bs.
They take down private mods made by individuals all the time, too. It’s straight-up coping to deny the vile shit Nintendo does in the name of profit.
He’s getting downvotes because he’s acting like a jackass. Like yeah, I’m pretty sure everyone here has some axe or another to grind with Nintendo, they do plenty of shitty things. But to act like their games are somehow objectively bad and that everyone who likes them is just stupid? That’s just divorced from reality and overall pretty immature. Obviously it’s plenty possible for someone to not personally enjoy the games Nintendo puts out, art is highly subjective, but their games are generally solid.
Some people enjoy the games, and that’s okay.
Let me know what your favorite video game series is, and I’ll tell you why I think it sucks. You then let me know how much you don’t care about my opinion, and then you’ll understand why people like Nintendo.
You need something to whatabout because you can’t address the points directly. Childish response that fits the childish fanbase of Nintendo perfectly.
The only game developers that are anywhere in the same running as Nintendo on Anticonsumer practices would be EA, Ubisoft, and Warner Brothers. Maybe arguably Playstation and Xbox.
Literally any other game developer could be listed as a favorite game series and avoid most of the criticisms I’ve laid out.
I don’t own a single Nintendo product, I’m hardly the “fan base.”
We’re all mad about the emulation situation, but this is just silly. People really very much enjoy nintendo games now more than ever. Their player base is very very very satisfied
Yes, I am acknowledging that in my comment. I’m saying I don’t understand how people stomach this garbage, and I stated the specifics of what I found so repulsive in the co sumption of their products.
Maybe start from a place of understanding rather than hostility and you might get somewhere.
Yall are crying victim to deflect from the conversation about supporting a garbage company that weilds capitalism as a weapon.
No one is capable of having a conversation with you because all you do is attack other people and not respond to them.
Absolutely hyperbole. Just last year, we got Tears of the Kingdom, Mario Wonder, Pikmin 4, and Advance Wars Reboot. Doesn’t matter if these aren’t your kind of games, they sold well, were critically acclaimed, and won awards.
For graphics, sure. For creativity, accessibility, and all the other things that matter in video games? They lead the industry
