"Each generation of gaming, specifically console gaming, has tried to give us something new. Whether its new graphics or new technology, it really comes down to the games.

They found those games fun for a bit, and I just got a headache from how horrible and rushed those games felt, not even Mario Kart played the same. Hit that disagree button all you want, Nintendo has fallen downhill in quality imo,
