I've been watching the gaming industry behavior for awhile now and I have to disagree.

Nintendo has seen hate(actual hate, disregarding any legitamate criticism) Since the 64. Sony recieved NOTHING but praise, adolation and butt kissing until after the ps3 launched(not a second before) and then recieved nothing but apologists and yearly "year of the playstation 3" articles for 6 years. All while Wii was being blasted for its success.

Then the 3...

The recent over-saturation of Mario really can't be denied, though I wouldn't count Paper Mario as a "Mario" game for this purpose as the game play is completely different.

Swap Nintendo and Sony in your statement and you have me (In a nutshell...)

But that doesn't mean I won't give Sony props for doing good or will always blast them blindly for nothing... I just don't like them that much really...

You can have 12 accounts per system and they freely share software.

You can only have 1 SYSTEM per account, not the other way around.^ͺ^

That is true, but ps and xbox are younger than Nintendo. Of course Nintendo will push its most legendary franchises, and have had more time to have done so; sony has only just attained itself franchises it can parade in such a fasion(having sold off Crash and Spyro) and Halo is MS flagship... in fact, the rate of releases from uncharted and Halo easily outpaces Mario and Zelda despite their relative youth.

Furthermore, the GC and GBA were devoid of mario and zelda... which re...

I'll say it as many times as it takes: I dislike the sewage that is his opinion because he is constantly wrong, yet continues down incorrect and illogical paths of reasoning with his predictions.

The main point of contention with this article I have: where are those software numbers pulled from, and what do they actually represent? I am having a hard time believing this, as Nintendo has led Japanese software all year(unless he is talking only USA, Which is understandable)...

But that is not just nintendo.
Sony uses Uncharted. MS uses halo. And the rumor mill seems to indicate no change in this behaivior.

It is no different and is onesided to think Nintendo is somehow alone or especially guilty of this kind of thing. That is why many don't like to hear that "complaint"; because it is an industry wide stigma ignored unless it is Nintendo.

Eh, a teeny bit ~ͺ^

It has lots of info on the other games too. The second paragraph opens with a CoD update. This is a sales story focusing on wiiu because the wiiu just launched. If it was JUST a nintendo story mention of vita would have happened at all, and a recap of everything else would have been secondary and used as a comparison.

Vita only came up from me because of that link in the story itself and... what was on top. >.>

For being a 3rd(5th if you count portable 3rd) iteration of a several years old game, MH3GHD did quite well.

But go ahead and focus on the niche western Zombie game at the exact launch of a new console as being an indication of the entire future of the wiiu...

Nintendo is a horrendous offender but their actual products are not. Of All that R&D quite a bit goes into making their products efficient I'm sure. Unlike Microsoft, which plops its inefficient machines on the market to reek havoc en masse.

I never take that greenpeace crap seriously, as they only cover a companies direct effect. I wonderhow much damage the all thosr 360 and their electric bill heavy machinery affects the environment... but that isn't taken into ...

He posted a link to the vita top 10 in the article. This IS NOT a "Nintendo" story but a sales week story with a Nintendo headline.

Seeing Blops: Declassified at the top of the Vita Chart is horrendously disappointing and vomit inducing...

Furthermore, not a single Vita game made the list, despite Europe potentially being its best market. While the two can't really be compared based on their respective situations, it does put the situation in a different light.

Exclusive MonHun for ps4 won't happen.
Unless they make a Frontier 2, but that will most likely be MultiPlatform with PC.

After seeing all the Sony Sequel rumors and the general consensus on them, I never want to hear another complaint about any other game being "milked" ever again from this place.
Hell, if even half of them end up being true and everyone acts happy my head will explode.

Protip: if you are going to make a controversial list of great games you dislike, make sure well known Industry-divided games like dragons lair ARE NOT on the list.

ALSO, make sure you don't leave out an ENTIRE platform, or else you will appear incredibly one-sided.

Overall a terrible list.

I don't quite get what you are saying, but if you mean Japanese brand loyalty towards Sony there is really not that much, and it is shrinking by the day...

They do love their Playstation though, but no where near like they love their Nintendo... and that's really all there is since most devs won't touch the regional corpse that is xbox.

Otherwise, they aren't completely turned off to non Japanese things. They love their Apple, a big deal as ne...

The assassins didn't exist in the storyline at that point.(I've only played 1 and 2 so far, so this is based off that) Perhaps similar groups as the assassins and templars faced off, but the story traditionally follows them. And they weren't formed until after the 11th century ad, more than 1000 years after the spring and autumn period.

The era I mentioned had two main games set in it released recently here: stw: rise of the samurai and way of the samurai 4. And b...

Not medival Japan Just after that.

Late 19th century Japan had samurai, warring factions centered around two major ideologies, loads of covert and small scale armed incidents, guns(continuing past the revolution) and a crap ton of assassinations.

Fighting the shinsengumi one moment and then moving to assassinate a western military advisor the next... the setting screams assassins creed in EVERY WAY. Ubi would be stupid to pass on it.

@ippiki
Which is why Mario galaxy ISN'T the highest rated game of the gen? Oh wait...

And just ask RPG fans which game they would prefer: ff13 or the last story.

And (while this is debatable) all thid gen, when ps360 was being over run by the same 3 genres en masse, the wii held some of the most original and inventive new 3rd party ips of the gen.

This isn't even taking into account the mammoth sales they have amassed, or the ...
