Why didn't nobody give a shit?
>>720809406>Paid DLC>Framed it as being centered around some lame minigame>Bananza wasn't this huge hit on the same level as Odyssey or Breath of the Wild
donkey kong has always been boring filler shit until the good games come
I already got all the Bananas so I don't really see the point in going back. Also just don't care much about roguelikes or whatever.I think those people saying it should have been free have a touch of the 'tism, but I just personally wouldn't have spent more than $10 on it.
It's $20 for one level with nothing on itThey're clearly desperate for sales since it performed more like a Kirby game than a Mario game
only people i know irl who like this game are stoners and drug addicts. i tried getting into it but its just way too fucking boring and repetitive.
>>720810025>only people i know irl who like this game are stoners and drug addictsWelcome to modern AAA gaming.
>>720809406Wait did Bananza seriously not perform that well?
>>720810110Yes, that is the only logical conclusion we can gather from people not talking about this DLC.
Boring fucking game. The only way I could find this fun was if I were 25 years younger and never played Minecraft before because it’s not a Nintendo game. $70 wasted.
>>720810110Yes, that's why they released a free demo
>>720809406baby game with zero difficulty and open world level design with low verticality and the flying ostrich transformation makes the game retardedly easy and cheap
>>720809514>Bananza wasn't this huge hit on the same level as Odyssey or Breath of the Wildhave they announced sales figures yet? Releasing a demo a month after release is suspicious and makes me believe it really didn’t sell that well
>>720810326>>720810427Wait fetus game got a demo? Lmao
>>720810110Very likely the reason why they launched a free demo the other week. Makes you wonder why they set the DLC cost that high if not even the base game is selling numbers.
>>720810013>delegate the odyssey team to a DK game for 7+ years instead of a new mainline Mario game >it sells like shit >no new Mario game in sightthey fucked up
>mario odyssey but without the fun movementHope it flopped hard. Odyssey 2 got delayed for this fucking crap
>>720810110It’s simply not a $70 game. They thought they had the next odyssey on their hands but it’s more in line with their more niche franchises like Pikmin or Kirby
>>720810168>>720810326>>720810492What the fuck happened? I've heard some told me Bananza shits on every 3D Mario. I didn't fully agree with that statement, but I thought it would've been good enough to push big ales
>>720810549Isn't it generally accepted they split the team in two
>>720810602>Odyssey 2It’s insane how Odyssey was just ripe for DLC and they just did nothing with it. Like $20 bucks for 2 or 3 worlds? It would have sold like hotcakes
>>720810701Nothing happened. The game is fine, the DLC just isn't anything worth talking about even if it WAS free.
>>720810720Is it? I’m actually asking because I don’t know. I sure would hope so because if Nintendo is looking at 5+ years until the next 3D Mario game they’re in trouble
>>720809406nobody has money anymorewe're living in war times
>>720810701It’s no doubt still a good game, it just wasn’t the huge system seller that they were expecting it would be
>>720809406>platformer that barely runs 25fps
>>720809406I already felt scammed by the kirby dlc. Not falling for it again
>>720810943Unironically works fine on my machine.
>>720810918DK was never a system seller like Mario or Zelda. I get that they were trying to reinvent the IP but it was a risky gamble that seems to not be paying off
>>720811039It was also just retarded to hide K Rool since that would have made people hyped
Bananza should've been a Wario game with Wario and Ashley
>>720810991did you overclock your shits to run games at 60fps?
>>720810110Well the entire switch 2 library is a bad mario kart game and this so naturally people are going to pretend to be hyped for it. I know mfers who praise this game and don't even own it kek
>>720811143Were you playing handheld or something?
>>720809406This was one of the most obvious cases of "Content from the base game removed and repackaged to be sold as DLC"
>>720811149ong fr fr this shit was not bussin
Because its not 3D Mario and looks ugly
>>720811149Tendies are a special batch. I’ve been shitting on the game since it came out and was called out by poor tendies who don’t even have the game. The moment I proved (multiple times) that I did have it they slithered away.
Was releasing this game in a broken 20fps turd state on switch 1 a mistake? Is Nintendo just banking off of the switch 1's backward compatibility rather than a strong launch lineup?
bros I literally paid 600$ for this and mkw....I feel so scammed...
>>720810110>>720810701DK just doesn't have the same star power as Mario I guess. The last proper DK release was in 2014, you can't just put an IP on hold for over a decade and expect it to be a big system seller. I love Bananza and hope they keep going with more 3D DK games but I don't really know what they were thinking when they decided to prioritize DK over Mario.
>>720811546>Is Nintendo just banking off of the switch 1's backward compatibilityI don't think so. Switch 2 has just about the same cadence of new games coming out as the Switch 1 did at launch.Also fuck pushing TotK back, they probably should have just pushed XCX back. I'm happy it's accessible to more people, but it would have been a great way to show off the Switch 2.
>>720809406who wants to play as some jew making grotesque faces?
>>720811642Yeah it was honestly kind of a bizarre thing for them to do, which to be fair, is completely on brand for Nintendo.Ever since the announcement of the Mario movie they've REALLY been trying to push Donkey Kong for some reason. It was the movie, the theme park stuff, and now Bananza. He's just not that great of a character and can't carry this sort of weight and it's a mistake to even try. He's a B tier character, which is completely fine, and he should stay there. The 2D donkey kong games are great, just iterate on those. Honestly, I like them a lot better than Mario's 2D games.Bananza is fine but it's nowhere near Odyssey in literlaly any way. It's also funny that a lot of the game is around music and the soundtrack is just okay and gets completely mogged by Odyssey's one musical piece.
>>720809406Donkey Kong looks fucking retarded. I'm not the kind of autist who was attached to the old design in any way but the new iteration is off putting. Shitty main character design has killed so many games in this era.
>>720811569That’s what you get for switch 1 piracy you fucking baka gaijin
>>720811569did you lose the console or something? relax, you'll get use out of it for the next 5-6 years
>>720810943It runs at a consistent 60 FPS with dips during intense areas
>>720811546totk ran fine, schizo
>>720809406>20 fucking dollars>for a mode you get bored with after two hours
>>720811270It was clearly meant to be similar to the post game content from Odyssey but some higher up suit definitely told them to sell it as dlc
>>720810549>Make a DK game instead of 3d mario>Tell sakurai to release a Kirby kart racer months after MK instead of smash or literally anything else>Shit out a lazy Zelda sequel that re-uses the old map instead of taking their time with a real system seller for switch 2>Squeeze out prime 4 months after launch and market it like it's an embarrassing red headed step child.Every decision they have made around their core talent and system sellers is incredibly strange. They have blown their load on a weird lineup nobody wants and now we have to wait 5 years for the real system sellers.
>>720810025There's a reason it's called the tiktok of video games
>>720812046It’s just strange that they saw DK and thought “yes what this franchise needs is a singing little girl”
It's interesting how the usual suspects when it comes to rabid Nintendo defense have gone quiet. That last Direct really made it plain for everyone to see that they're floundering with the Switch 2 and trying to make up for it by ruthlessly milking their most dedicated fans, and people know they can't deny it any longer.
>>720811428I think I remember your posts they accused the proof of you owning as being AI or photoshopped or just said you have poor taste
>>720812081I truly don’t understand why they made him stick out his tongue so much like a dog. Apes and gorillas don’t do that
>>720812395at the risk of sounding like a hyperbolic faggot, I got bored watching the 4 min trailer for it. The entire time I knew it simply was not something I would enjoy
>>720812605>a weird lineup nobody wantsIt sounds like you don't even know what you want.You only want the same 3 titles over and over.But you also want them to be completely different each time.But not too different of course.
I mean when tendies pad their "must have" switch 2 games list with shit like drag x drive and hyrule warriors is it any surprise thst they think donkey kong is a 10/10?
>>720812605>kirby air ridersthis shit is beyond baffling. Nobody even cared about the first one outside of “that game you rented for a weekend” or “your cousin happened to have and you messed around for a few hours” they should have done a kid Icarus HD port and announced a sequel
>>720809406There was nothing to give a shit about.Also that DK is still fucking disgusting.
>>720812778I think i've seen this post about 378 times over the last dozen years
>>720812778>announce a $30 DLC to a $70 game that hasn’t even released yetI’d say this shit is inexcusable but the usual suspects are excusing it
>>720812893>hyrule warriorsI wish it was just Hyrule Warriors 2 with all your favs than fucking botw shit again
>>720812957I don't think you have considering the Switch 2 came out about 3 months ago.
>>720812893The weird thing is DK “Mario odyssey edition” should have been a 10/10 but it just wasn’t. Its “fine”
>>720812909KI:U fans not recognizing the lightning in a bottle it is and still begging for a sequel is such a shame.
>>720809514the lame mini game is the only "content" in the DLC.The island is empty with nothing to do.
A lot of same fagging insecurity in here. That by itself shows how relevant it is
>>720813007just substitute "switch 2" for whatever other nintendo console name. Sorry for overestimating your intelligence, I thought it was obvious
>>720812992And they're expanding upon a story nobody cared about to begin with. "See the canonical events which led up to Zelda becoming a dragon" Who gives a shit? Why not set it after TOTK with a fully restored Hyrule or something
>>720810110Are you surprised? Literally anybody could've seen that coming. What's baffling is that Nintendo thought this should be their Switch 2 game and not anything anybody would actually care about. And on top of that they make DK look like a total retard, further alienating people. And on top of that it's just a braindead boring game. But Nintendo's still arrogant enough to try and keep shoving their absurd prices down people's throats.
>>720813007Nintendo hate has been the same for years and years and years now.It's a bunch of people in their 20's and 30's that just can't move on.It was the same when the Switch came out, it was the same when the Wii U came out.
Lmao this game is doing 10 million+ lifetime sales. More than shilled stuff like E33. Keep coping PC Cucks. You're not getting the game.
>>720809717>clearly on-disk DLC scenario>the new mode is a rouge-like copy without changing any of the actual level designs (the thing that makes rouge-likes fun)>you cant even play emerald rush on all the layers, its just a handful of them.>people saying this should have been free have a touch of the 'tismdude the mode is not interesting. nearly every tacked on extra mode Nintendo has done in the past 15 years has been garbage (remember Star Fox WIi U?). they are insane charging anything for emerald rush and they know it; thats why the direct led with DK Island and acted like the Island was going to be its own level. The only people I see who "enjoy" this slop are the fanboys on damage control (I saw someone on the other site claiming that they will get "hundreds of hours" out of emerald rush).
>>720812992>fucking botw shit again I have BoTW fatigue. It’s insane that we haven’t moved on after 2 mainline games and 2 spinoffs. I am so sick and tired of this version of Hyrule, the aesthetic, the art style, the characters, Zelda’s piss ass English voice fucking ENOUGH
>>720812784Yeah that was me! I told tendies to kill themselves each time I posted proof of owning the fetus game.
>>720809406I don't feel like paying $20 to go back to a game I've 100% completed.
>out of nowhere multiple braindead posts defending the megacorp are posted in rapid successionlooks like someone sent up the distress beacon in their discord kek
>rosterfags and smelees still assblasted about Air RideGOD I love winning
>>720813078I never had a 3DS and would like to play the first one at least
>>720813187>Nintendo hatelol. the disney adult pipeline in full force everyone
>>720810110This was done by the Odyssey team, so they're expect Odyssey level sales. If it's not hitting that target it was a waste to put that team on Donkey Kong.
>>720812778Yeah as someone who loves his Switch 1, it really does feel like Nintendo either half assed it or decided to Rush the Switch 2 out because everyone was begging to finally see the successor of what is likely to be Nintendo's best-selling console of all time.And like some have already said Nintendo's choices regarding the Switch 2 and the minimal games it already has is weird.>NO Mario Kart World DLC or major updates>Bananza DLC that doesn't have much, but it cost $20>Pokemon DLC before the game is even fucking out>FUCKING VIRTUAL BOY for NSO and that shit costs $100 for an accessory >Charging full price for two Wii games that both came over a decade agoLike idk if it's hubris and Nintendo let the money go to their head but the decisions they have been making are fucking dumb as shit
>>720813136>>720813187But even tendie youtubers are saying enough is enough here. The Switch 2 is a different situation. Nintendo's greed is reaching a boiling point, and people are unhappy both with the pricing, overall attitude, and lineup.>inb4 cope replies
>>720813336there is no single game company that lives as rent free as nintendo in the entire gaming culture and honestly it's not even remotely close. if you haven't noticed yet you simply haven't been around for very long, zoom zoom
>>720811428lol I remember this. I was in the sales threads and they had a meltdown when I pointed out that initial sales figures always slow down and Nintendo consoles drop off way harder than PS or Xbox historically. A few weeks later the slowing sales numbers came out and suddenly all the celebratory spam on the board stopped
>>720813203Mario Odyssey sold 30+ million. DK isn’t coming anywhere near that. Let’s talk again in 5 years
>>720812891Sounds like you're making up a bunch of shit and putting words in my mouth. Most of my observations are about what the mass market and core tendie fan wants and why their decisions were stupid from the perspective of having a compelling launch lineup.What I personally want is completely separate from any of that shit besides a Zelda that is different. I want a new sin and punishment, fzero, fire emblem, monolith game, something new from sakurai and a 2d DK. I'm not getting any of that shit besides another koei tecmo outsourced FE, so I'm probably never going to buy the console.
>>720813439>there is no single game company that lives as rent free as nintendo>you simply haven't been around for very long, zoom zoomyou are obsessed with your childhood because you are a manchild and project yourself thinking about a childrens video game company 24/7 onto everyone else. I bet you are insufferable when you talk about the 90s console wars.
>>720813461I never claimed it would 30 million. I always said Luigi's Mansion 3 numbers. The next Mario's probably not pulling Odyssey numbers either.
>>720813078I don't want a new kid Icarus, it's preferable to a shitty kart racer but id rather sakurai do something new.
>>720813436you mean the people that make a bazillion videos hating on something and then buy it anyway? haven't you figured out that people that make youtube garbage don't have opinions and just do whatever gets the most views? please grow up
>>720813297that’s how I feel about most DLCs if I’m being honest. I’ll 100% a game and 6 months later it’s like “but wait there’s more!!” but by that point I don’t care anymore
>>720809406>Extremely early DLC that's obviously content that's been cut from the base gameAnd at this point people who are done with Nintendo are just tired of the absolute shit they've been pulling recently, they could kill a baby in the next direct and it wouldn't feel out of the ordinary. The fans left are on the same tier of pokémon fans at this point
>>720813510It's endlessly hilarious that you are denying the very thing you are currently doing. What a fucking mongoloid you are, anon
>>720813510Adults who seethe about Nintendo all day are just as embarassing as the adults who glaze Nintendo all day.At the end of the day, you're both completely obsessed adults.
>>720813315I’m actually surprised a level headed thread went on this long before somebody called me Erik or whatever
Wow, a soulless version of dk island. Makes me want to clap.
>>720813458I don’t go into the sales threads, sorry. Tendies are bad enough already, I don’t need to see them out compete each other in their dick riding of Nintendo.
>>720813585You don't have to buy it. The game still great without it.
Isn't Crocodile Isle still supposed to be in front of DK Island?It was never destroyed, at worst it was abandoned after 64 like the Gangplank Galleon was after DKC1.
>>720813649sorry mr enlightened centrist but people who go out of their way to engage with things they don't enjoy are endlessly more pathetic than people who talk about what they enjoy. This goes beyond nintendo and beyond gaming - it's a true statement for life in general
The fuck are you talking about? It's in the running for GOTY in most places. It probably won't win, but people absolutely gave a shit.
>>720813458>b-but muh “fastest” selling console of all timefastest means jack shit. Even the Wii U sold out of preorders
An IP counter is deeply missed in threads in like these. This games better than Astro Bot could ever think about being.
>>720813714Ok but that's not the argument of the threadAnd "you don't have to" is the biggest red flag you can have about the state of a game franchise
>>720813627>retard goes into a thread talking about overpriced DLC that just came out to damage control>>SEE YOU'RE OBSESSED WITH THIS COMPANY NOT ME
>>720813530The problem is that this wasted years of the Odyssey team, not the Luigi's Mansion 3's team. It's being compared to Odyssey not LM.
>>720810110Everyone stopped talking about it a week later and even when they were it was mostly just to perv on the female child.
>>720813530I sincerely do not believe DK will reach 10m
>>720813828>if you're not begging me to play it it's not good!wut
>>720813480>. I'm not getting any of that shit besides another koei tecmo outsourced FE,Koei Tecmo actually wasn't listed anywhere in the trailer, even though their name was in Three Houses' trailer. It might be Kusakihara leading an internal IS team rather than an external developer.
lol calm down schizo, you're talking to yourself
>>720810397amazing, nothing in this post was true
>>720813789I showed those screencaps of articles from 2012 claiming the Wii U was a huge success because of the launch lmao. They ignored and went into the usual deflections. There's no point arguing with them, half of them are underaged, the other half are people you would be physically repulsed by irl.
desu i didnt think odyssey was that goodi know i'm way too old to be playing it though but it's very easy
>>720813953>half of them are underaged, the other half are people you would be physically repulsed by irl.lmao this nigga just flat out admitting he's attracted to the underage
>be me>bring girl home>she gets weirded out by my shelves of amiibo>try to play MK World with her and she told me it was "boring">left without staying the nightits crazy how the Nintendo Derangement Syndrome (NDS) has spread to normies and girls guys.
>>720813953>There's no point arguing with them, half of them are underaged, the other half are people you would be physically repulsed by irl.Dude obsessed with hating on nintendo is an actual pedophile you can't make this shit up
>>720813803Rip sony's dick out of your ass, it's jabbing into your brain and making you retarded. I'd say rip nintendo's dick out of your ass as well, but we both know that'll never happen.
>>720809717It SHOULD have been free. Bro, I just paid $70 for this game two months ago and my cartridge is technically now incomplete. My purchased game is incomplete because the new Nintendo president is a fucking Pokemon Company accountant that doesn't give a fuck about customers like Iwata did.
>>720809406Being able to revisit DK Island is cool, but it's empty and there's only some roguelite minigame that didn't sound that interesting. I like Bananza but it had plenty of post-game content that was more interesting than this.
>>720814041>>720814105>pedophile will read into any statement and make it about pedophilia>samefagging and posting the same reply one minute after the lastno surprise for a nintendo fan. maybe you can meet an underaged fire emblem cosplayer at your next "con".
>>720813932The graphics have regressed from engage and it looks exactly like three houses. Unless they intentionally shat up their graphics pipeline to emulate an ugly game I'm assuming it's koei tecmo again.
>>720809406Nobody bought a Switch 2 for Bananza. Normies all bought one for Mario Kart.
>>720814106So are you admitting to being a PC Cuck here? That's worse than a Snoy.
>>720814107>my cartridge is technically now incompleteOff topic but in 10 years when disk drives stop existing on consoles are you going to off yourself?
Should have been free. At least if DK Island was a proper layer you could justify it but it's just an empty stage for Emerald Rush. ER feels like it was just a free balloon mode.
>>720809406>double negativeIt's Nintendo, of course there's going to be a ton of people that are going to give a shit about whatever they release.
>>720814180>Dude says half the audience is underage and the other half is physically repulsive>tries to deny he's a pedophileokay pedo
>>720813429Akchuly the VB accessory is not required.And Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 launched at $50 each, not 40.
The game is unbelievably braindead even by Nintendo standards.>Well duh its for kidsNot White kids. Previous Nintendo games required at least basic problem-solving and reflexion abilities, which are standard in White and East-Asian children.But now that hundreds of millions of people in the Souhern Hemisphere and southern migrants to the West can afford luxury goods like a console, the games have to be simplified, since the average IQ of this new customer base is much lower for example India: average indian IQ is 76, well below the previous threshold for mental retardation, which has since been lowered for political reasons).
This came out?
>>720814256and normalfags have all realized MKW kind of sucks and just went back to playing 8 lol
Holy shit nintendo has mindfucked you guys so hard that you sound like /pol/tardsThe SKGfags had less obsessive rage
>Too expensive>Too early for DLC>Roguelike>Empty DK IslandI 100% the base game and I can proudly say fuck Nintendo
>>720814365>post says half the fanbase for a video game are either underaged or physically repulsive>you have to be physically repulsed by the sight of children to not want to fuck themare you autistic? (you dont have to answer)
>>720812909sorry that kirby air ride didn't click with you, but surely you're aware your experience with it doesn't match most people's, yeah?
>>720810549I'm starting to think DK was a better fit for modern retro than prime 4 all along.>>720811039Such a drastic change in aesthetics didn't help either
>>720809406The original Bananza is just shit Odyssey 2, as if the original Odyssey wasn't mediocre to bad. No DK fan gives a fuck about these games, we want Country games
>>720813236Are you the same guy complaining over and over that you want them to switch settings so you don't have to hear English-dubbed Zelda? Just switch to Japanese voices, sperg.
>>720814685not what the text says, pedo, no use trying to rewrite it.
>>720814732>we want Country gamesBlame the fags shilling for Banjo and Donkey Kong 64 so hard.
Nothing but exclusive game after game each month for the foreseeable future for Nintendo. Can't say the same for PlayStation and PC.
>>720814825>There's no point arguing with them, half of them are underaged, the other half are people you would be physically repulsed by irl.explain your projection, pedophile.
>>720814020Odyssey is just soulless slop for the zoomers, it was trying to be Mario 64 but with none of the charm or challenge>>720814834Retard, this is NOT a classic Rareware 3D collectathon. There's a difference between those games, which are challenging and require you to use your brain, and Odyssey style "there's a collectable every three seconds and the hardest thing you'll do is jump a rope for 10 minutes straight" bullshit nobody cares about
>>720814875>alf the fanbase for a video game are either underaged or physically repulsive>half of them are underaged, the other half are people you would be physically repulsed by irl.these statements are not equivalent, retarded pedo, no matter how much you squirm
>>720809406It's a shitty open world mario game with a donkey kong skin and a difficulty so low that a literal fetus could easily beat it.
>>720813429the lack of any mention of Mario Kart World DLC when the lack of DK and Pauline costumes really made me think they'll announce a DK based expansion together/right after Bananza is so weird
>>720814862Not sure why you're trying to falseflag a Nintendo against PC rivalry.PC + newest Nintendo console has been the meta for years now
>>720814993>mental gymnastics this hard after you exposed yourself as a pedophilelol
....I thought Bananza was a good game...
i knew this game was trash when Dunkey was glazing it
>>720814956>which are challenging and require you to use your brainthere is no hope for middle aged nostalgiafags unfortunately
>>720815056>gets exposed as a pedophile through a literal statement>tried to re-write it>fails>n-no y-youI accept yout concession, pedo
>>720814862How are you people still this fucking stupid? Just how is it possible? Nintendo is flagrantly screwing you and faggots are still just this fucking dumb.
>>720815051Most of the hate Nintendo is getting isn't Snoy's, it's PC only niggers
>>720815093Oh Bananza's great imo but the DLC shouldn't be $20. Hell it shouldn't be DLC in the first place
>>720815149Trying to compare Banjo, Dk64 and Mario 64 to Odyssey/Bananza is the most retarded bullshit ever. The most difficult thing in Nintendo nu-slop is not falling asleep after collecting the first 200 moons/stars/bananas/whatever and realizing there's still 800 more to go
>>720811546I fully believe Nintendo rushed the Switch 2 launch so it could release before Trump Tariffs.
>>720815182Yeah but the PC people who bitch don't ACTUALLY hate nintendo. They are dying to still play all the games.
>>720815251>implying Mario 64 was hard
Eric you lost, get raped
>>720815295Mario 64's stars at least weren't "walk three feet and break a crate"
>>720815251The only difference in difficulty is that the old games have more backtracking kekI guess the 64 games are difficult for infants without object permeance?
>>720815270Nah, I actually hate Nintendo. I didn't used to. But they kind of fucking suck at this point and their braindead fanboys are now worse than sony ponies ever were somehow.
>>720813789The Wii U sold less than a million in its first month, if you think that's remotely comparable then you're even dumber than the rest of your 'cordtroon xisters.
>>720813803>This games better than Astro Bot could ever think about beingYWNBGOTY
>>720815116That faggot is such a nintendickrider in the same way that his wife fucks blacks.
>>7208128916 titles actually
>>720815158>reads into the semantics of a statement talking about how a fanabse argues to say its pedophilia
>>720815379Why does this matter? The progression in odyssey, outside the endgame, isn't really gated by how many starts you have. You need to get a certain amount of them per level before proceeding. Obviously not all of them will be significant since there's a literal fuckload, but why is that bad?
>>720813207I mean, some people got hundreds of hours out of the baloon update in odyssey. I think it's cool those things exist but to ask for 20 bucks shortly after asking for 70 (which people would've expected 60) is crazy and I refuse to believe this did more money than damage. Imagine MK World releases paid dlc for a side mode after asking for 80 dollars.
>>720809406>cultivate goodwill (and an obnoxious faggot fanbase) with the switch 1>do a 180 and go full greedy the very next gen, alienating more than half their fanbaseit'll be successful, but i doubt it will make switch 1 numbers (~150 million units) and it'll definitely teach them a lesson
>>720814780>dude just switch to language you don’t understand cope. this isn’t anime, there’s no reason the English voice acted debut for such a high profile IP like LoZ is such poor quality
>>720815558>pedo gets absolutely flabbergasted someone can read because he hangs around children all dayabsolutely fucking disgusting, kys pedo
>>720815565I unironically think the Luigi update has more to it than this shit, not that it took more effort, but the online component makes it engaging.>>720815570actually, im Eric
>>720815442>I didn't used to.It's called growing out but not growing up.
>>720809406Reminder that according to Nintendo DK isn't a separate brand and is counted as a Mario title.
>>720814780I don’t want to hear Japanese voices I want the English voices to not be high school drama class tier

>>720809406it's DLCnoone cares about DLCmake a new fucking game nintendo fuck
>>72081495664 was only challenging when you were 7 years old
>>720813461Hell, Mario Kart World is 100% not making MK8 numbers, or the next AC making NH numbers either, would be funny to see Z-A underperform PLA by a long shot
>>720809406Unironically I'm so broke after buying charger/powerbank/console/controller/games I can't afford it right now lol
>>720815718They just play it both ways.Same with Wario and Yoshi.
>>720809406Releasing a DLC so close to launch is almost a guaranteed tell that content was cut from the launch version and resold for a premium. I did want more DK, I did not however wish to be scammed.
>>720815803We're gangstalking you
Eric here. The dlc is overpriced and shit.
>>720815251the “quantity over quality” approach to the moons certainly was a strange choice in Odyssey. You’d get 6 moons for itching your ass and before you know it you have enough to power of the odyssey and move on to the next world. Yes I know you’re meant to stick around and collect more but they definitely should have increased the required amount to “beat” the level if they were going to be so easy to obtain
>>720815264could be. They also seem to be raising the prices of every single piece of their hardware to avoid raising the switch 2s already questionable $450 price tag. I think that $99 alarm clock is now $115 lol
Eric here.
>>720815770I don't really understand this narrative that Nintendo was expecting the Switch 2 to sell as well if not better than the Switch 1.I think literally everyone in the world understood the Switch 1 was lightning in a bottle.Obviously they would like it to still do good, get closer to the Switch 1's sales, but no chance they are betting on it matching.
>>720814107desu, it's your fault for buying an obviously overpriced product despite being shown how greedy the company has gotten>normalizing $80 for base version of "special" games (mkw), meaning games like new zelda will also be $80 or maybe even more>normalizing $70 for base version of regular games (dkb)>normalizing paid upgrades for switch 1 titles just for a simple performance boost (botw, totk, plza)>still no fix for the joycon drift>uses lcd displayenjoy itthe guy from pokemon is going to get even more greedywhy do you think they put so little effort into pokemon? it's because they know cattle like you will buy the slop anyway lol
>>720814295Consoles with disk drives will probably stop existing altogether, the next Xbox is confirmed to be all digital and the PS6 is seemingly gonna be the last playstation
Is DK Bananza the most critically panned game of all time? Out of eight billion people on earth, only one person likes it. How will Nintendo survive? Chapter 11 when?
>>720815448All I’m saying is “fastest selling” isn’t exactly an impressive metric. It’s like how streaming services post their shady “minutes watched!” despite the shows being shit and flopping. Only time will tell
>>720816046Physical in general has been dying long before key card shit started happening that's for sure.
>>720815919Who tf is Eric? Take your god damn meds
>>720815718Interesting nugget of info but how exactly is this relevant to anything being discussed?
>>720815919you'll survive, pajeet shill

>>720815448>another thread where the retard doesnt understand market size changes over timewhat were other launch figures at the time of the Wii U autist. you can literally google and find articles from the early 2010s calling the Wii U the fastest selling console of all time, zoomer.
>>720810427Yeah, I am also of the mind that a demo doesn't bode well for the game's sales, at least compared to Nintendo's expectations. Probably sold a cool 2 mil to the diehards and the legs fell off.
>>720816025>I think literally everyone in the world understood the Switch 1 was lightning in a bottle.Nintendo definitely expected Wii numbers with the Wii U

Maybe they should make a fucking Donkey Kong game next time instead of retarded baby shit with a gay redesign of a beloved character
>>720816279well now we know Eric-fag is this guy >>720815448https://theweek.com/articles/470077/wii-u-sells-first-week-evidence-nintendo-comeback>Earlier this year, Nintendo posted its first annual loss in three decades, a grim omen for the pathbreaking videogame maker that introduced the world to classic characters like Mario, Donkey Kong, and Link. The Japanese company has struggled amidst an industry-wide decline in the sales of consoles and games, a trend partly attributed to the ever-growing popularity of tablets and smartphones. Nintendo's last breakout success was the Wii, released in 2006, and there have been serious doubts that its successor, the Wii U, could sell as many units. However, since the Wii U went on sale in North America on Nov. 18, Nintendo has completely sold out of all 400,000 consoles shipped to retailers. "As soon as the Wii U hits the shelf, it's selling out," said Reggie Fils-Aime, the head of Nintendo's U.S. operations.>The Wii U's early success is a surprising indication of "strong demand for the company's next generation of videogame devices," says Ian Sherr at The Wall Street Journal. And during the week of Nov. 18, Nintendo also sold 300,000 units of the original Wii, as well as more than 500,000 units of its portable DS and 3DS systems, which could reflect a rebound in consumer demand as the economy continues its long slog of a recovery from the Great Recession. Nintendo says it expects to sell 5.5 million Wii U systems by the end of March 2013, the end of its fiscal year.
>>720815442They make fucking games still retard. Actual fucking games that are exclusive to the their console. They're finished and optimized day 1 too. Most PC games aren't.
>>720816334Probably moreso. But if anything I think that would help keep expectations in check.But seriously, expecting ANY Switch 2 game to match the Switch 1 equivalent is asinine. It's like expecting the PS3 to match the PS2 somehow.Hell, I don't think anyone ever thought a console could get as close to selling as much as the PS2 did, but the Switch 1 somehow happened.
>>720816524>other games are not actual games>modern nintendo>optimized>day 1lmao. enjoy paying $20 extra so the kokiri forest doesn't drop to 5fps
>>720816503I don’t know I don’t buy Sony first party faggot games. I know it’s redundant despite owning a ps5
>>720812605I think Sakurai just has no idea what to do with Smash now. When Ultimate announced every previous character, I immediately thought that was a bad idea in the long term because it would lead them in a corner. They made a bajillion dollars, but now they're finally here and you can't do Ultimate's trick again. Do you just reboot Smash now? The series is probably in the hands of someone else while Sakurai is allowed to make something that he actually wants.
>>720816607>Hell, I don't think anyone ever thought a console could get as close to selling as much as the PS2 did, but the Switch 1 somehow happened.I’d argue it’s because the condensed their handheld/home console lines into one
>Raresnoys are still seething at Bananza even when it directly caters to themIt's like their entire personality is being jealous of Nintendo or something.
>>720810754Based Nintendo not shitting up a decent game with DLCslop
>>720816647You don't need that content to say DK was great and optimized on July 18th, PC Cuck. You can't talk about Nintendo being a rip off when you pay 2k+ for a PC. That's a scam you're ok with.
>>720816761>raresnoyshas rare ever even released a game on playstation? now you guys aren’t even being creative with these insults, that’s just fucking dumb. It’s like me calling somebody a xboxmarionigger it’s funny but makes no sense
>>720812605this is the powerof Shuntaro Furukawa.>know nothing about nintendo>know nothing about videogames>know nothing about customer base>know sales numbers>know share holders>why my business strategy not working?
>Fun nostalgiabait level is a cool postgame bonus in Odyssey>Fun nostalgiabait level is paid DLC in Bananza (Also base game is $10 more expensive)A lot can change in 8 years huh?
>>720816775>talking about how Zelda was an unoptimized piece of shit and they are now charging money for the fix>you bring up PC and DKnobody mentioned PC retard. I have DK, the frames drop alot, especially if you use the bananzas like elephant or kong. None of Nintendo's games are graphically impressive enough to excuse this performance, its the equivalent of Borderlands 4 having shit performance with its graphics.
>>720816761It doesn't 100% cater to them. It's a weird contrast between being a big departure and the most tryhard fanservice.
>>720815662>>dude just switch to language you don’t understandDo you also have an autism fit when you play games with made-up languages like Splatoon and Kirby because you don't understand them and have to read the subtitles?Listening to a real foreign language is the same thing. Grow up. You don't have to understand the audio if you can FUCKING READ.
>>720816770I fully agree that dlc is aids but it is strange considering they went all in with dlc for the switch
>>720816801>selling consoles faster than they can produce>we project 5.5 million sold by 2013I forgot, im dealing with the projection pedo obsessed with semantics, my bad.
>>720816523Idk about articles or whatever but I sincerely hope this ericposting guy works for Nintendo. Theres a tightness in my chest at the idea that this guy is doing this all for free on his own time. That society can produce a creature like that.
>>720816992>he thinks dubfags can readOh you sweet summer child.
>>720816992no I prefer made up gibberish and would have preferred that for BoTW. Why are you defending such a shitty fucking English dub? “Change the language” is such a strange stance to take you should be demanding more quality dubbing
>>720813327why don't you buy a 3DS and put CFW on it. It would be a better investment than a switch 2. By the time you beat the 3DS games you never tried maybe there will be an actual switch 2 library instead of oops all switch ports.
>>720817045they aren't. as much as everyone claims everyone is a shill, the dude is just genuinely mentally ill. He probably is in a discord with other people who do the same thing, so at least its not the same guy (probably).
what we really wanted
>>720817040Literally not your claim, Eric the pedophile.That just rapes your own cope about Muh so available to death
>>720816934Doesn't change the fact that contrarian snoys flock to Rare to seethe at Bananza or that Raresnoys spend every ounce of their existence seething at Nintendo for 25 years.
>>720817086I can't imagine sperging out this hard over like 3 minutes of dialogue.At least the Xenoweebs who cry have 10+hours of cutscenes in all the games.
>>720817148Still a perfect game.
>>720817171>only bottleneck was how many consoles they could actually produce>nintendo claims huge success>console still failedThe irony is you raped your own cope about the Switch 2 by being autistic about semantics, yet again, Cire.
>>720809406>Why didn't nobody give a shit?Because DK looks like a moronic child.
>>720817312Not what the article said, where did they quote Nintendo?and it sold out, which is a bad thing. Switch 2 doesn't have that problem
>>720817373>be born to a family>disappoint parents>cost of living rising dramatically>uses time to spam post the same joke on an internet forumFinite life btw
>>720817435>selling out, which is a bad thingholy onions. the article literally said: >>Nintendo says it expects to sell 5.5 million Wii U systems by the end of March 2013, the end of its fiscal year.
>>720809406I did and I’m enjoying it immensely. I don’t give a fuck that it was 20 dollars because I’m an adult man with disposable income.
>>720817439You're right. He should spend the middle years of his life seething about babby games instead.
>>720809406Holy shit, this is the first I'm hearing of this. 20 fucking dollars? Are they for real? It doesn't even sound fun. Hard pass on this crap from me.
>>720817086Dubs are for kids, the hard of seeing, and lazy people who want to listen to background noise. As a literate adult, there is not a good reason, besides perhaps novelty on a repeat viewing, why you would listen to anything but the original language something was made in.Most people accept that English dubs are poor quality because they are made for kids and other people with low standards. Asking for the English dub to be better made is an uphill battle, as the entire industry of US voice actors and directors is used to making content for 13 year olds who don't really care if it's good.The path of least resistance to hearing good voice acting is to play the game with Japanese audio, because that's how it was made to be played. If you can FUCKING READ, listening to foreign language audio is an insignificant hurdle. You have subtitles.Just pretend Japan doesn't exist and that Japanese is made-up gibberish. Your indignation at the idea because "this isn't anime" suggests you already pretend Nintendo isn't Japanese for some reason, so you have practice at pretending.
>>720817572Why do you talk about yourself in 3rd person?
>>720817492That doesn't say how they saw the first month, Eric.keep up with your own cope.And yes, selling it is bad
>>720817530buh-buh-buh-buh-BANANASED
Man, the DLC should have been more 2D levels
wtf happened?
>>720817657>selling out where demand is high and the bottleneck is supply is bad.>having excess inventory sit on shelves with no demand is better.Selling out is not optimal, but its better than the second option I listed.
>>720817632I should spend the middle years of my life seething about babby games??No thank you.
>>720817741The japanese don't understand 90s surferdude coolness, they want to make everything into a cute mascot.
Not enough Pauline in this thread, god you fools are pathetic
>>720817765Yes, selling out is a sign of incompetence.you make less money than you could.
>>720817741Tendietroonism struck this poor fella.
>>720817741
>>720817765>having excess inventory sit on shelves with no demand is better.But enough about ps5
>>720817095I hate the thought of having to buy some shitty second hand console for more than the original MSRP
>>720817920Only based anon ITT
>>720817223anon don’t be disingenuous. It’s 2 mainline games and 2 musou spin offs all fully voice acted. It’s a little more than “3 minutes of dialogue” the English voice cast is insultingly bad which begs the question why they even went the voice acted route. The little “oi” or “hiiiiiiii” before reading the text box was fine
>>720817079>the dub is so shit they should have just stuck with gibberish>LOL I BET YOU CANT READ NO GOODretard
>>720817954
>>720818107>It’s 2 mainline gamesYes with 3 minutes of dialogue>and 2 musou spin offsirrelevantfeel free to bring up the phone app no one used next
>>720817925Yea, like I said you dense autist, its not optimal. But it is better than having excess inventory sit, which is what is happening right now. take operations management one day zoomer.
>>720817530>what are you….POOR?!almost as much of a cope as “it’s fun with friends!”
>>720817920>>720818039>pedophiles expose themselves yet again after saying nintendo fans arent pedophiles all thread
>>720816397It floats, that's how it got in front of DK Island, the only way it could sink is if it took on water, even then, surely the 'crown' would be above the water, no?
>>720817629anon it’s universally agreed that ALL of the dubs for BoTW are good minus the English version
>>720817920Surprisingly she doesn't really do much even for THOSE type of fans. Most of the threads regarding her just die off or get deleted. Genuinely there was no point of turning Pauline into a kid because she doesn't do much in the game beside give DK a transformation
>>720818143Aren't you tired of getting banned?
>>720817741awwww he’s smiling :3
>>720818268>brings up being poor and friendless out of nowhereI didn't claim that anon. I just said I have disposable income.If that's true, I hope you can start doing better soon.
>>720818231Wrong, Eric. And they are breaking sales records every month, seems like Nintendo knows more than you do.Now where in the article is Nintendo talking about the monthly Wii U sales?
>>720817530>having money means you should spend it on ripoffsgood goyim cattle. make sure you spend all your money on pop culture so there's nothing left for your kids and they become debt slaves! Oh wait, you're a nintendo fan, you're already not gonna have kids
>>720818312I get you've been assblasted at the spammer for the last 3 hours. But don't take it out on us.
>>720818201>BoTW all cutscenes - 1:47:42>ToTK all cutscenes - 2:57:46>AoC all cutscenes - 2:27:14>DUDE IT WAS ONLY 3 MINUTES
>>720812604This doesn’t make sense because there’s already a shit load of post game content inside Bananza already
>>720818487>coomer fags trying to act like they're innocentEric's holy justice knows no bounds
>>720818579all the shit in ingot isle probably would have been in DK Island instead of recycling the tutorial area. It would be like if Odyssey's post-game was all in the Cap Kingdom and then they sold the Mushroom Kingdom map separately.
>>720818404>im an adult man with disposable incomeare you so retatded that you can’t even understand your own implication? I also brought up the “fun with friends” cope because that along with “what are you, poor?” are two of the most common defenses I see on the internet yet they hold no grounds because, one, everything is fun with friends and two,It’s naive to assume the only people complaining are the ones that can’t afford it
>Another post-BOTW Nintendo game where there needs to be gigantic wastelands of absolutely nothing between every "setpiece"Can't wait until they stop doing this fucking shit, it is AIDS
>>720818673This just sounds like you are making shit up to justify some bizarre conspiracy
>>720818681>are two of the most common defenses I see on the internetHmm, I know these are children's games so I really haven't put that much thought into it.Have you considered that you spend too much time on the internet arguing about these things. Perhaps that has influenced some of your current woes?
>>720818720>OoTsnoy seething at Bananza tooSo which Nintendo games do OoTsnoys actually like? Outdated garbage from 20+ years ago? Or are you just snoys like everyone understandably calls you out as?
>>720818875>DK Island is on the layer map>The whole game is in the vein of Odyssey>Odyssey used nostalgic location for post-game>it is unimaginable to draw the conclusion that DK Island was meant to be the post-game area after they release it 2 months post-launch as paid DLCPersonally, I think the idea that Capcom would lock fighters as on-disk DLC for SFxTekken is just a bizarre conspiracy.
>>720813340Some of you guys are bigger salesfags than Nintendo themselves lol. They probably anticipated it would sell less and made it anyway because they wanted to.
>>720818974It's the same as pokefags. They just cry about how shit hasn't been the same since they were 10.
>>720818970>bragging about being a good goy>conveniently ignores anyone calling him out about ityes... yes... YES! Good Goy!
>>720819043>because they wanted toright because by no coincidence DK land is opening this year in their theme parks
>>720818974>So which Nintendo games do OoTsnoys actually like?>Outdated garbage from 20+ years ago?Yes. the fact you like modern game design is not a brag, Rabbi Shumlie.
>>720818970anon just shutup lmao you know exactly what you were saying and you’re mad that I called you out. Just stop the whole smug argumentative persona and just say “yeah dude that was dumb lol”
>>720819076Calling me out... on having fun? People must be having a difficult time. I'm sorry if my moderate wealth has been interpreted as bragging.
>>720814698
>>720819192So you're a retarded snoy then. Thanks for the confirmation.
>>720819238>brag about wasting money because you "have it">but im having fun!yea the boomers had a lot of fun too, they were great goyim cattle, just like you. Your kids will love you for your financial decisions.
>>720819128Apparently the game was made because Koizumi asked them to. Yeah I guess there's been a bit of a push for DK stuff. Especially with Nintendo's recent ambitions of becoming an "entertainment company" rather than just a video game company. Think they'll make a Donkey Kong movie after the Mario Galaxy movie?
>>720819238>this dlc is shit >yeah well I’m a GROWN MAN with disposable income so that’s fine! (What are you, POOR?!)>proceeds to babble on about children’s games so none of this matters anyway your arguments are all over the place
>>720819378>Think they'll make a Donkey Kong movie after the Mario Galaxy movie?I’m almost positive this has already been confirmed
>>720809406I haven't even beaten the base game yet.
>>720819201>>720819381What argument? Isn't this board anonymous? I don't believe there is anything to be won or accomplished here.
>>720819513Willing to look past a products quality because you see the price tag as irrelevant was your argument>anons discussing the high asking price, the length, the quality etc>you chime in with “well NONE of that matters because I’m a GROWN MAN with DISPOSABLE income”
>ctrl+f "eric">20 results
>>720819443No? The only currently announced movies are Mario Galaxy (2026) and live action Legend of Zelda (2027)If Illumination makes it they won't talk about it until after the Galaxy movie is out.I think there's been rumors and discovered trademarks though
>>720818464It’s 20 dollars man I don’t give a fuck
>>720810110If it did not perform well then the DLC wouldn't be $20 for just a roguelike minigame.
>>720819827In my defense I did say “almost” positive. I think I was just confusing rumors and speculation, Seth Rogen claiming he would love a spinoff
>>720819769I am simply a person having fun, who has a demand that meets the supply. I find the quality acceptable considering all factors.Although in a theoretical universe where I didn't find it acceptable. I imagine I would simply purchase something else and move on.
>>720809406>>720809514wait, this is PAID dlc? LOL
>>720819769I like Emerald Rush and running around Donkey Kong island because Donkey Kong is my favorite series. Nintendo can fuck me over on this series specially and I don’t really care as long as it’s good, and I find it to be good. I don’t give a fuck about complainers bitching about everything.
>>720820142and released 2 months after the fact along with a free demo
>>720820167Idk why you decided ti pretend to be me but basically yeah. 10 dollars or free would be better but I’m probably going to play this shit for a good 10 hours or so, and I enjoy it, so I’m not really crying about it.
>>720818360How do you feel about there being a Baby Waluigi Mr. Anon?
bananza will be goty 100%
>>720810110As other said, the demo is a bad sign. Not to mention $70 games in general have performed poorly. You can look at something like Monster World vs Wilds or even Doom Eternal vs Dark Age. $60 is probably the highest you can realistically charge for a video game.
Once you realize most of the complaining about Bananza is bitter Mario fans things all start to make sense.
>>720819468I haven’t 100% the game yet but I’m getting close
>>720810549>it sells like shitThirty three percent attach rate in Japan, and that's just physical. We'll get global numbers in November so start spinning up your cope now.
How many people ITT actually played the fucking game?My guess is that the demo and DLC are just a move to keep the game relevant amidst all of the Mario 40th anniversary stuff. They clearly spent a lot of money on the game, so they probably don’t want to fall out of the limelight too quickly.
>>720820374you cannot truly believe this. I say this as somebody who enjoyed it too
mkw sucks and everyone returned to 8DKB is fun for one playthrough at bestKirby is a rehash of a game no one bought Metroid bit the open world slop turdEveryone and their grandma is gushing about e33 and silksong
>>720820646you lost and got raped, eric;;
>>720820413>$60 is probably the highest you can realistically charge for a video game.I believe this is the line in the sand for most people because even at $60 sales tax begins to approach $10ish additional dollars let alone $70
>>720820540I’m willing to accept that I’m a retard if it ends up having huge numbers all I’m saying is that a $20 2 hour DLC and free demo 2 months after the fact don’t exactly point to great sales
>>720818334The way in which they say "hyrule" in spanish in dogshit
>>720820615>How many people ITT actually played the fucking game?How many /v/ poors do you think can afford a Switch 2 and game right now?
>>720820781There is no correlation at all actually.
>>720820615I’m still baffled as to why it wasn’t released as a launch title. I know at this point it’s irrelevant but I feel like more people would have been hyped if it launched with DK
>>720820615>so they probably don’t want to fall out of the limelight too quickly.Then why not make the "DLC" free?
>>720820651>shitty addon to Kirby>not one but TWO 45 minute directs for air riders Why are they sucking Kirby dick so hard? he isn’t a system seller and never has been. Kirby has always been a second or even third rate seller similar to pikmin
>>720820897Eric you got raped. and lost.
>>720809406I like the game but expecting it to be a systemseller was ridiculous. Like the last DK was like a decade ago, no matter how much polish it has, its no mario or zelda.The dlc being a nothingburger and costing 20$ is just the final straw for many people.
>>720820945>>720820971
>>720818974>outdated garbage from 20 years ago>shitting on the classicsThanks for proving you're not a real nintendo fan but rather a switch secondary
>>720820897It’s Nintendo, most of the decisions they make are completely unintelligible to anyone outside of their little bubble in Kyoto.The best we can do is loosely speculate, because there’s no chance in hell they’ll ever explain it
>>720819128>DK land is opening>has DKCR aesthetics>bananza looks nothing like itWhat was their plan here?
>>720820843you don’t know that. Granted I don’t know that either. I just know they released demos for both Kirby and the forgotten world and Yoshis crafted world months after release and neither of those were exactly “hot” sellers. You never see a Mario odyssey demo or BoTW demo
>>720821032>Switch secondaryOh shut the fuck up, cubesnoy.
>>720820962it's probably because kirby is sakurai's baby and they need to keep him on board for the next smash
>>720820821>what are you, POOR?!?
>>720821142Shut the fuck up, Eric.
>>720821032Switch fans are the only actual Nintendo fans because we've stayed with them for this long rather than converting to snoy/PCfaggotry like you did.
>>720821149good fucking question actually lmao. I won’t claim to know better than Nintendo but some of their decisions truly are baffling
>>720820615Yes, here’s a screenshot I took of a spiny Fractone
>>720821182I mean don’t get me wrong Kirby is fine but it definitely feels forced and inorganic and you’re probably exactly right. Definitely something like “I won’t work on smash unless I get my own project first”
>>720821142>FEshitter
>>720820615More likely its to recoup some loses. This game was in development for like 8 years.
>>720821416Got any actual points where you got your ad hominem from, faggot?
>>720820372Just like Regular Waluigi, I don't really give a shit. I'm kind of getting tired of seeing these baby versions of Mario and co. desu
This game is fucking boring. When will they release an actual system seller that is not casual garbage like tennis and anime chess shovelware? That and low effort ports
>>720821221I didn't call (You) poor. It's a given that this place is full of poorfags, so asking "who here actually played this Switch 2 exclusive game?" is a non question.
>Hey guys here's DK island like you remember, >Just without any of the charm They were too lazy, they should just have give us an actual big exploration based big DK island level that does the legacy of the original games justice, instead of this half baked shit.
>>720810110Ugly DK is just too much of a turn-off
>>720809406Why is everything so gray and brown, unlike hk?
>>720813691Then I'm gonna take you through this monkey rap.
>>720821476>This game was in development for like 8 years.I truly hope the next Mario game has been at least in some type of pre development because if we have to wait 5-8 years for it all due to some “mid” donkey Kong game Nintendo is in trouble
>>720821939>ugly DKI get they wanted to rework him to make him a cutesy mascot character but he’s actually revolting to look at. That “sticking out his tongue with hearts in his eyes” face he gave in in the initial trailer triggered some primal feeling of rage and disgust I haven’t been able to get over. That and the fact that I hear that faggot Seth Rogens shitty laugh everytime I see his face
So now we're all pretending that DK Bananza is a flop?
>>720822332It’s worth discussing until the official sales numbers come out. Demo 2 months after release and overpriced barebones DLC don’t exactly scream high sales
>>720809406they shouldve made a dkc tropical freeze 2
>>720822534I agree. Mario should stay 3D and DK should stay side scrolling
>>720809406Flopanza is just boring. The world looks like vomit.
>>720822332It probably didn't even sold as much as they wanted
>>720809406Imagine if Odyssey charged $20 for the Mushroom Kingdom level and Luigi's Balloon World two months after launch.
>MKW and DK both were meant to be Switch 1 titlesso outside of performance upgrades is that why they feel so “lackluster” neither of these games exactly usher in feelings of the next generation
>>720816943Didn’t he come from from the Pokémon Company? Is that the reason why Nintendo is so bitter about Palworld?
What are we like 6 months into switch two, and these are the 1 year gamesquite pathetic lol
>>720816698just keep adding characters, smash is the easiest fucking series to continue.
>>720822025>Hollowsnoys are still seething because they waited 9 years for garbage
>>720822829Why are you making shit up, Eric?
>>720822887Ultimate already felt like a bloated mess in my opinion
>>720822829Shut the fuck up, Eric.
>>720819128Don't forget the Donkey Kong movie.
>>720822887>just keep renewing IP deals and making new ones bro
>>720822512>>720822658It was the third best selling game in July lol
>>720813436>2 more weeks shitendo is invulnerable, the more evil and greedy they get the more popular they get, its some weird ritual of depravity and stinkiness that tendies are engrossed in.
>>720823164cheaper than hiring expensive VAs like other studios do
>>720823164Unironically yeahIn fact just port ultimate but with more characters,you don't need to innovate smash really
>>720823235that doesn’t really mean anything though, it’s another useless metric like “fastest selling console” how many copies did it sell?
>>720823347How many does it need to sell to be a success?
Been playing games since the Nes released. Bananza is genuinely one of the best 3D platformers I've ever played. Especially since nothing was spoiled for me. That being said, after doing two emerald runs I'm done. The perks are always obscure shit like ostrich egg power I'm never gonna use.
>>720823434100 million otherwise it's a total failure
>>720823359eric isn't playing banananza bro
>>720809406Putting out such little content only 2 months after release for $20 is just insulting. I love Bananza and it might be my GotY, but shit like this is only going to alienate more and more core gamers
>>720823773You aren't fooling anyone, Eric.
>>720823434Mario Odyssey sold 30m so take that info as you will. Mind you they forced the Odyssey team on this game for 8 years instead of a new Mario game
>>720822817no he got a job at nintendo and immediately asked to be an accountant in the EU branch then sucked off iwata???? I have no idea how he became CEO of JP branch it makes no fucking sense outside of japanese style>he has been here for over 4 hundred years it is his turn to be CEOhe very likely attended a lot of shareholder meetings and just said "make me the CEO so I can make you shareholders happy" it's truly bizarre that they let this man make decisions. even then he probably doesn't make any real decisions or interact with anyone outside of asking shareholders what they want next and then telling people he's reducing budgets and increasing his salary and we need major league title now and line go up
>>720811039It doesn't help that they did an extremely horrible job fostering the DK IP during the Switch era to keep it in people's minds (they went bizarrely hard in promoting DKCR but it was way too little and too late in the Switch's life, especially amongst Switch 2 leaks), and tied it into Super Mario Odyssey, a game they spent the whole Switch generation after it released treating like it practically didn't exist. it's actually kind of infuriating when you put 2 and 2 together, and realize that the reason they only acknowledged Pauline and New Donk City in future spinoffs was to JUST vaguely keep them in people's minds to call back to them later with Bananza as if it was meant to be some huge payoff a decade in the making, and why everything unique in Odyssey got completely memoryholed by Nintendo.
>>720823359who the fuck is eric? what are you talking about? I think you included me when I was talking about the JP accountant ceo. What happened? qrd?
>>720809406>Cut content sold as dlc 2 months laterBased Basedtendo forever raping ninkiddies!
>>720823928I asked for a number, not cope, Eric. How many copies did it need to sell to be a success?Remember, botw was the most expensive Nintendo game ever made and needed 2m to break even.
>>720823839>>720823880bros... how can we have an honest conversation about this game when you accuse everyone of being er*c? Can you at least reply with how you think I'm wrong? Do you think the DLC is worth $20? What is your favorite thing about it? I genuinely want to know. I might even buy the DLC if I can be convinced its actually worth it
>>720824119Eric is a villainous snoy that works 24/7 trying to get people to turn on Nintendo and the Switch.He's the retard behind all the anti-BoTW/ToTK/Switch 2 threads. He'll occasionally fanboy pre-Switch Nintendo products like Melee, OoT, and Gamecube as well. Example of one his posts >>720823773

>Nintendo schizo spamnuking yet another thread when it doesn't go Nintendo's wayYou're going to be a VERY busy bee controlling damage for the next six months, anon.
>>720822887>just keep adding charactersHow about no? It’s already Mugen levels of bloat
>>720809406Its the equivalent of the Luigi Baloon shit from Odyssey except you have to pay for it.
>$20that's why
People really love the name Eric huh, the only people more annoying are the retards who keep uttering this name cluelessly over some retarded Weekly Sales threads drama. Once again. You idiots are pathetic
Anon why are you mentally ill?
>>720825090Maybe you should try to be less obvious, Eric.
>there are legitimately a couple of schizos itt seething about a made-up boogeyman that criticises nintendofucking kek
>>720809406Looks cringe as fuck. Whoever drew that should be executed
>>720825090Jannies and Olímpio do it for free.
>>720824923>Mugen levels of bloatIs that why people like mugenThere's nothing wrong with adding more characters
>>720825090>>720825237>>720825269I can tell you're scared, Eric. More people are becoming aware of your gaslighting.
>>720825408"Isn't
Nintendo: where the pedos pay and don't play.
How many fucking IPs does this Eric-obsessed dipshit have???
>>720825671>Eric pretending like anyone who calls him out must be one personPathetic.
>>720819240Cropping out the user score seems like kind of an own goal here
Not enough K. Rool
Sonyfags got mindraped by Nintendo winning. Nintendofags get mindraped by Sony regardless of them winning or losing.
>>720809406the redesign
>>720826196nobody cares about king k cringe
I don't know what the fuck happened to this Thread, I don't know the Eric lore.
>>720825671He ban evades all the time. I know his posts get deleted by jannies yet he always comes back
>>720810701That's a lie. Liked the game but it's 8/10. Minimal actual platforming and all that.
>>720826345See >>720824902, this sad fuck patrols the board 24/7 looking for threads that trend negatively for Nintendo, to spam them into bump limit/404.
>>720826356Nintendo works him hard.
>>720825237Nintensnoys are mentally ill.
>>720826283He carried the game
>>720826463Nintendo wagie working 24/7 for dat cardboard virtual slop discount code.
>>720826345You need another recap on yourself, Eric?>>720824434
What the heck happened to Nintendo? Did they get too cocky with the success of the Switch? I guess history repeats itself.
>>720820615I played the game. It's a fun 8/10, would not replay but the DLC should have been a free patch.
>>720826345The lore is that this weirdo just calls everyone Eric, regardless of the content of their post. Complete coin flip as to whether it's a seething tendie or a false flagging snoy.
>>720820615Me. Cute and fun game, but I am not paying 20 dollars for a fucking nothing dlc
>>720809406DK is not Mario
>>720816698Sakurai explicitly stated Kirby air riders was a request from Nintendo and HAL, he even states that it's very similar to mario kart and asked if they still want it. Sakurai was fine making anything, the stupid choice is on Nintendo.
>>720810701every new nintendo game has an army of fanboys singing its praises at the expense of every game that came before it. the hype has to die down before youre able to hear real opinions
>>720826754I'm guessing because Odyssey and BOTW did so well Nintendo immediately believed that bigger open worlds means better. Fuck everything else
>>720820846Because MKW and DK would've eaten each others sales. What a lot of you don't seem to realize is that the vast majority of console/game sales come from normalfags, and normalfags on average buy less than ten games for the entire life cycle of a console. If Nintendo drops both games at launch, most people aren't gonna double dip, they'll just buy one. Spread them out over a month and everyone who would've bought both still buys both, and some of those people who wouldn't have bought both will now also buy both.
>>720816943You can tell whoever is in charge is a retarded bean counter because they used mario kart as their system seller. Mario kart is on paper their most popular franchise but it's not what drives console sales, it's a game that launches 4 years after the console when the main install base is casuals with alot of women and children. It is not what 20-35+ year old men buying consoles near launch want to play.
>>720809406I was thinking about upgrading to the NSO Expansion Pass, but now I don't think so. I thought aside from VC stuff, the whole fucking point of it was access to extra content like this that would otherwise be paid.
>>720827073Sakurai also took over the OG Air Ride when he saw that HAL was having trouble with the game.
>>720827086The switchup on BotW and TotK is going to be fucking whiplash inducing when the next 3D Zelda is revealed. And infuriating.
>>720827389>Buy Switch 2 day 1>Play Mario Kart for 15 hours then forget about it for playing Switch 1 games running better.Core audiences do need something else to sink their teeth into. My friend only cares about Metroid Nintendo wise so he ignored the Switch until Dread came out and he refuses to buy a Switch 2 just so Prime 4 will look nicer when it's the only new game he cares about. He may care if we get Metroid 6 or Prime 5 as an exclusive.
>>720821151Star Fox Zero too
>>720810110Everybody I personally know who played the game loved it, but that's only like 3 people and the only 3 people who bought a launch Switch 2.It's probably the same problem Metroid faces.Glowing reviews and reception, but an audience too niche for parents to sweep it up en masse for little timmy's birthday.
>>720826724Why don't you tell us more about yourself, Donnie?
>>720827469BotW remains excellent and dodged the Zelda cycle, it's TotK that blows major ass
>>720821086>>720821170>>720821335Stop samefagging schizo
>Ruin Donkey Kong's design>Shocked when the game doesn't sell as well
>>720827663Which again makes their treatment of prime 4 kind of strange, it should have been pushed as a day 1 system seller but instead it's treated as a weird also ran c-tier project. When you consider the guy in charge is a spreadsheet monkey, he looks at metroid series sales and sees it's a fraction of their main pillars and positions it accordingly.
>>720809406>>720809514>you literally pay over $10 for the DK equivalent of a Seinfeld episodewhat's the point
>>720820142>game doesnt sell well>know the people that did buy it are core audience only>squeeze core audiencethis baffles the nintentard
>>720821669Next year with Pokemon gen 10, it will probably be complete shit but it will most likely move systems
>>720827086>>720827469I'm looking forward to the next major Zelda being more open-world even if partially to see you snoys get your shit kicked in for another 8 years.
>>720828256Shitting up another thread, are we, Donnie?
Bananza's DK island looks pretty lamehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1xkXrzVQdU
>>720828319>Eric desperately trying to force his own bogeymen for anyone who calls him out
>>720828410>Donnie desperately trying to force his own bogeymen for anyone who calls him outIs Eric in the room with us now, Donnie?
>>720823323I could use some more single player content, trophies would be nice too.
>>720823773I mean, yeah, it alienated me, I was going to buy bananza but not now that it has paid DLC, maybe when/if they have a reprint with the DLC on the cart.
>>720810701Made by the fucking odyssey team
>>720816943>In May 2012 he became an outside director in the board of directors of the partly owned The Pokémon CompanyOhhhhhh that explains everything. I felt that gamefreak and Pokémon had somehow infected Nintendo with their shitty attitude to making slop for retarded children and that's why. He was directly involved with gamefreak when they were realising how successful cheap, shitty games were as long as the brand name was right and the target audience was too young to care about quality.
>>720825090The guy spamming "Eric" is one single guy, I really doubt it's more than one person.
>>720822817Oops meant for>>720828709
>>720828709That could explain the creation of fetus game. One of the bosses had me walk up to him and press the punch button a few times and I won. Dropped the game after that. So fucking boring. I can’t imagine what kind of Nintensnoy you have to be to defend that game as an adult.
>>720828884there's many of us eric, but only one of you
>>720828938I'm already having that same feeling Pokémon fans did when they realised they were so far outside the target audience for their games it wasn't even worth complaining about how shit the games were. I never used to have that feeling when looking at Nintendo IP.
>>720810549Any non cringe YouTubers worth watching that do a good job pointing out all the retarded shit nuNintendo is currently doing?
>>720810326I'm not savvy on AAA marketing but is this really the case with demos? Cuz there's plenty of other first party Nintendo games that have demos. I guess it makes logical sense. People aren't willing to dish out $$ so they give a free sample to see if that changes their minds but I never really thought about it like that
>why nobody gives a shit >500 replies thread >fastest selling console ever Uhm curious
>>720829436nigger half the replies are the eric guy and the guy arguing with him
>>720816943
>>720829698Took a bit of time to post in the other thread, Donnie?
>>720810918I don't understand why they took a gamble on what should be a system seller with not only an IP that hasn't seen a mainline game since Tropical Freeze (well over 10 years now) but with such a huge overhaul on design and gameplay. I understand releasing the game a bit later in the year and then seeing if it does numbers but wtf? That's Nintendo for you, I guess. They did have Mario Kart to balance it out, though, so maybe it wasn't as risky a gamble as one might think.
>>720829683who the fuck is eric
>>720810110Japanese devs. Should have been another Western dev.
>>720829683those are one and the same
>>720824073What do you mean when you say Odyssey got memory-holed?
>>720829683Well thanks to eric guy for promoting the game keeping it bumped with an image of the game nintendo marketing department sure love that
>>720827469BotW was actually good and I loved it. Equal parts comfy and fun. But TotK is the first Zelda game I didn't finish.
>>720829815What do you mean? It was perfect for the mechanics being developed, no other character would fit the destruction so well. Faggots suggesting wario are wrong.
>>720830361the end of odyssey proves you wrong. bowser is popular with kids because of the movie. they could have made a bowser game that would have been 99% more interesting to normies than DK.
>>720830361Because like I said, while DK might be a household name his last game was well over ten years ago and not exactly on normies's mind, I would argue. I might be underestimating DK's relevance but even me, as a huge fan, was not exactly moved to buy the game. It just seems a weird IP to open a console with. But like I also said, MK was there which IS a system seller so maybe they hedged their bets pretty well and I'm just an ignorant consumer pleb
>>720809406I don't give a shit about the Switch 2 in general
>>720810326Genuinely surprised Nintendo didn't charge money for the demo considering how jewish they've become
>>720828478>no uNot that guy but you are so predictable
>>720820615I spent a lot of fucking money on this game tooThat DLC was clearly held back content from the main gameNintendo is EA tier now
>>720828159It's $20 actuallyIt would stiull have been criminally overpriced at $10 though
>>720831005>Donnie trying to "not that guy"Oh no, im predictable to Donnie!
>>720809406I can't wait to play it. I already bought and downloaded it. But I'm in the middle of Silksong! I can't just pause my playthrough to return to Bananza. Though it is tempting.
Bump
>>720831520?
>>720831596!
>>720831690?!
Are there people who actually enjoy having roguelite faggotry shoehorned into games where it shouldn't exist? Make a fucking Jungle Japes layer where you get to see familiar enemies outside of the terrible mini trial shit in the core and I'd buy it immediately.
>>720809406I'm not even a Hollow Knight fag, but the fact that Silksong, an entire video game, is the same price as this paid DLC that had an island with nothing to do on it and a single new minigame, is pretty insane.
>>720831772!?
>>720830361The resurgence of Wario-likes shows that now is actually the perfect moment for the man himself.
>>720831880Im a tendie hater, but its genuinely just the cancer of being a public company. It ruins everything you do. The Silksong devs know they will make more than enough for themselves at that price point with the game; but if they were a public company, it would be about how much you could optimally squeeze from the consumer.
>>720814380>the VB accessory is not required
The switch-up on this game didn’t take long
>>720827469People turned on TotK after the first month
>>720831254fucking insane that this is somehow supported
>>720810110sales data from various countries all indicate decent sales and evergreen behaviour
