In a follow up article, the Black Emperor picks and rebuts a statement made by an ignorant poster.
From the article:
"It's been one year of no games since January. We're now in March, and the only games to satiate us are Sega's contributions. Which is all well and good, but I bought a Nintendo console to play Nintendo games, sir. We're not talking about their much praised business model. I applaud their efforts to completely change up the power struggle in the gaming industry. But you expect me to be happy about a lack of first party games or gaming info?"
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
thats nintendo for ya........Im patiently waiting on some decent new IP's before I give in to buy the WII
He says that Super Smash Bros Brawl is mediocre. It is the best in the series, and one of the best fighting games this generation. Talk about being a total douche.
He also said that Super Mario Galaxy is boring. WOW, this guy is a joke. Super Mario Galaxy is the most fun I had this generation. Go play your Gears Of War, where there is just blood and gore.
''its been one year of no games since January. We're now in March, and the only games to satiate us are Sega's contributions. Which is all well and good, but I bought a Nintendo console to play Nintendo games''
Does Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Super Paper Mario, Metroid Prime 3, Mario Kart Wii and Super Smash Brothers Brawl ring a bell? Those 6 games can hold you entertained for one year. And they all are published by Nintendo. Not to mention new Mario, Zelda and Punch-Out has been confirmed in works.
one thing is for sure, if you are a zombie fan the wii delivers!
Resident Evil: umbrella chronicles
Resident Evil
Resident Evil Zero
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
The House Of The Dead: Overkill
The House Of The Dead: 2 & 3 Return
Dead Rising: Chop till you drop
Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayers
I probably forgot a couple too.
Haha, talking about arrogance...
"There are seniors, and women, and young gamers who were hardcore before. It didn't reach as many people, but this crowd is appeased now, it's high time Nintendo focuses a little bit of attention on the people who purchase the Nintendo t-shirts... the ones who buy multiple controller periperhals in the hopes that they'll get to play something new... those who are holding out for new Zelda, Metroid, Pokemon and Mario titles."
Well considering Wii fit is doing so well and a balance board is required the peripherals are still selling. Pokémon's most popular with little kids as well, it's a completely casual game, same with Zelda and Mario. Metroid is niche but still loads of different people like it. And t-shirts... wow claiming the Wiis a fad for casual gamers and then bringing up the fact that you own a Nintendo t-shirt, WOW.
What makes you any more of a gamer than the kids and the old people, they enjoy games, they buy games. They are gamers.
Plus they tell people to read the article when talking about brawl but all they said was that it's mediocre. How so, why? It does exactly what the others do but with more characters? you mean like every other fighting game?
I also like how between the two articles the argument changed from "Nintendo have no hardcore games" to "Nintendo aren't innovating".
..just a troll.
EDIT: How about Fire Emblem, everyone seems to forget that. Go play that, come back when you've finished it with nobody dying(unless they have to) on the hardest difficulty and then complain about the lack of Hardcoreness.
That was one of the most tired, juvenile, unprofessional, pieces of nonsensical dreck, I've ever wasted my time to actually read. That stupid post made me wonder why being literate is such a plus. We all would be better off without this clowns' opinion of the gaming landscape which he's trying to pass off as canon. If there is any accuracy in this rant, it would lie in the ironically apt title: "Internet Idiots" I couldn't have put it better myself.
