>>733760993Exactly this
>>733760993All you gotta know.
>>733759452Parce que les gens ont en marre de voir des jeux Nintendo qui ont plusieurs générations de retard. Metroid a été la goutte d'eau.

Nintendo IS videogamesand that makes the pretenders seethe
Insanely greedy company. From Activision to EA /v/ has always shat on those, it’s nothing new.

>>733759452I don't hate them, but the Switch's success gave them a big head and I want to see them humbled desu.t. has a Switch 2
>>733759452They are Japanese.They didn't go 3rd party and put Mario on Playstation
>>733764815People were so sure that Nintendo will follow xbox and become 3rd party.Kinda funny how it turned out
>>733763070>he/she/they already forgot palworld and all gaming sites mocking nintendo for being out of touch and not releasing pokemon on pc, because there obviously a market for it

>>733759452The only who love them are little children who don't know better and soilennials who never grew up mentally from being 8 and love muslim more than their country.
>>733765979Some Groundhog Day bullshit right here.
Hope you're getting used to these droughts, this is the true nintendo console experience, this is what happens when nintendo doesn't have a failed console full of games that nobody played to port over.
>>733767828Saaaaar
Greed, kikery, mentally ill fanbase of complete retards agressively jerking each other off while screaming about their retardation.>>733765979All valid. Tendies unironically pay 20 dollars and up just for a shittier version of what PC chads had for free for many many years.
>>733760993This. It's a cycle, soon everyone will love them again come Switch 2 U.
>>733759452yet people still pay 20 bucks for a rom
>>733760993FPBP. They just keep winning.
>>733768448What's wrong with paying $20 for the game that you loved and want to play more?
>>733768448Goes to show jewrnos, grifters and mindbroken shitposters don't reflect reality
>>733768682That you're paying 20 dollars for low quality emulation trapped on crappy chink hardware.>>733768789Yes. Idiots generally tend to continue being idiots, happily headpatting and jerking each other off as they continue to consume shit.

Good morning man.
>>733769367Pajeet-kun... it's "hit a nerve".
>>733768954Never noticed how Nintendo is always used as a topic for all kinds of outrage? This isn't something new as it's been going for at least 15 years, if not more. You always hear about Nintendo's DMCAs across many sources for instance but not much of a peep from its competitors, like how Sony did shut down a fan-project of Little Big Planet a while back which was barely mentioned.Also game journalists went as far as to promote day 1 Switch emulation in broad daylight, which contributed to the emulation's downfall, or pushed the whole misinformation campaign on the Switch 2 pre-release. Or still desperate to paint the Switch 2 as a failure to this day.
>>733769484Meanwhile Nintendo games get bonus points in reviews.
>>733768954Journos have been seething ever since Nintendo started doing directs
>>733769508"professional" gaming reviews aren't worth shit though regardless of the platform and game
The western videogame journalism industry has desperately tried to turn Nintendo into the next Sega since the mid 2000s but it never happened since Nintendo has always been able to market themselves to people outside of the vga watching kotaku reading discord grooming bubble
>>733769697>The western videogame journalism industry has desperately tried to turn Nintendo into the next Sega since the mid 2000s but it never happenedIt's gotten noticeably worse in the sense that Nintendo stopped being the underdog even when the industry as a whole somehow decided to ignore the elephant in the room during the entire cycle of the Switch 1. Meanwhile SIE massively fucked up by surrendering the entire japanese market (after deliberate sabotages) to Nintendo and all its live service projects (which were supposed to be the big win for Playstation) keep being aborted.Since the Switch 2 was announced, we reached levels of hysteria and autism from gaming journalists, youtubers and internet users that shouldn't be possible but here we are.
>>733769508You sure?
Grifting videos generate more ad revenue than normal videos and retard kids are easily influenced
>>733759452They're the Apple/Disney of the video game industry and with an equally rabid/pathetic fagbase of balding fat millennials.
>>Game journos hate themEvery Nintendo game gets bonus review points, pic related.
>>733770463It was 98 game, so if anything reviewers kept it down
>>733759452Shills and grifters. Not everything needs to be on steam or pc at all. Good there are options
I dont hate nintendo but i dont like them either because theres no games. i dont wanna play switch 1 games or ports i need new games nigger, why release a console for months with 2 games i dont even turn it on anymore i feel like i got fleeced
>>733769508>Fell for "le Nintendo bonus" lie>Doesn't notice constant hit pieces journos make against Nintendo Makes me think
>>733770790>I don't like Nintendo, but I bought Switch 2 and only want to play Nintendo games!Right...For me there's too much to play and I can't finish one game before another one comes out.Mario Kart World, DK Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment, Trails in the Sky Remake, Silksong, Pokemon Legends Z-A, Metroid Prime 4, Mario Tennis Fever, Paranormasight The Mermaid's Curse, and I'm still playing Hundred Line (35 endings so far) between those
>>733771486What about games that real gamers would be interested in?
>>733772098You already tried this with "MUH Wii -> Wii U -> Switch -> Switch 2 PATTARNZ!" and lost
>>733759452They're greedy, corporate and litigious as fuck, and they no longer make good games. What's to like?
>>733773452>and they no longer make good gamesJust from last year aloneMario Kart WorldDonkey Kong BananzaPokemon ZA(one of the most beloved pokemon games already)Kirby racing
>>733772098In fairness the GBA is only down so much because Nintendo killed it early for the DS. It hit that 81m way faster than the OG Game Boy (which has GBC figures lumped in with it btw) and was generally a sales beast for most of its life.
>>733774858Please play other games, you have awful taste.

What a pointless thread. OP realizes that something has changed within the nintendo discourse yet chooses to plug his ears and dissmiss any negativity

They're malicious litigants and scam artists who haven't made a goood game in 9 years.
One more generation and surely they will get one more GOTY playable on their systems.
>>733779976But enough about Sony
>>733760993
>>733779896What's wrong with their prices
>>733768954They're the reason why the Nintendo Direct format exists young zoom zoom.
>>733781632>reason why the Nintendo Direct format existsBecause nintendo shit the bed during e3 once?
>>733780419Sony are less maliciously litigant but produce even fewer good games
>>733782356Yeah, they sued Tencent for showing them how to make a good one
>>733780596>Look up the numbers>Switch 2 outsold PS5 in 2025 despite having 5 less months on the market and PS5 having record breaking discounts>January PS5 outsold SW2 *only* in America, and by a few thousand units>January is a historically weak month for Nintendo and a strong month for PS5>PS5 is in its Apex of sales with GTA6 on the horizon and still cannot manage to bury SW2NGL it's looking bad for Sony. If GTA6 doesn't somehow quintuple their sales then SW2 is probably going to surpass them again, and this is the last year they have to possibly outsell Nintendo.
>>733782596PS5 is actually on the decline year over year and it is leading the Switch 2 as of recent. Thats bad
>>733780596>only nintendo game on the horizon is that pokopia shovelwarelmao, it's fucking over. ps5 gods mog
>>733765774>pokemon ripoff on PC sells 10% of what pokemon games do>this is supposed to be some kind of epic own
>>733780596Are they still counting Portal as PS5?
>>733783184yes
>>733760993Pretty much this
Nintendo fans are ruining this board and I'm tired of pretending otherwise
>>733768954Didn't Nintendo blacklisted Kotaku when they made an article saying "Yeah pirate Metroid lmao"? Since then they make lots of "news" about Nintendo that is just them shitting on them, If that isn't hate, then I don't know what is.

>>733788543meds
>>733788914No, that is the god's honest truth.
I see large, soulless corporation. I hate large, soulless corporation. What's not to get? I hate sony and microsoft for the same reason. Microsoft continues to ruin windows with ai, sony rapes my favorite games with pointless sequels and remakes (ratchet and clank comes to mind) and what nintendo did to metroid prime should be considered a hate crime.
Are snoys having another tantrum again?
>>733783184>>733783362>count Portal as PS5 sales>don't count Virtual Boy shells as Switch 2 saleswhy am i not surprised.
>>733789314>I hate everyone equally, but also I will make only hate threaeds about nintendoTypical
>>733789314I notice Valve is never on these lists, despite having mandatory DRM and always online even for single player games, making lootboxes popular, and being the poster child for ruining series with E-sports chasing updates and art design bastardization.Why do they get a pass?
>>733789314>What's not to getthe "soulless" part. nintendo is far and away the most soulful large company. most issues people have with them stem from the fact that they don't do the "obvious thing that would make them so much money" and instead maintain their bizarre toymaker attitude towards their products.
I've liked Nintendo for 39 years.
>>733759452I only hate Nintendo for killing one of my favourite franchises. Zelda
>>733759452didn't read past the second line. but Japan loves them and that's all I need since I only play japanese games and don't care about retarded americans.
>>733789753TP was terrible, and spirit tracks meh, but outside of it zelda games in last two decades were pretty good
>>733787951Anon, every single accusation these "people" make is literal projection of what Sony is actually guilty of. Every single thing.
>>733789841Everything went downhill with the release of A Link Between Worlds.
>>733760993fpbp >>733782823>retarded haters actually believes that Nintendo only have Pokopia planned for the entire yearlooooool
>>733789541I tried to make threads about sony and microsoft, but they always get pushed off the front page. Maybe you could post in them and help me out sometime.>>733789543Valve doesn't get a pass, but they're at least tolerable because their DRM can be bypassed incredibly easily, which also solves the "single player needing online" issue. plus, they're helping to work on linux and proton, to free us from the microsoft windows monopoly.Any real PC gamer wouldn't be latched onto them, though. I value freedom that you get from GOG (which is the only way to actually own your games without needing DLL cracks), since even physical console games are just rentals locked inside horrific proprietary plastic shells. I also buy games directly from devs when possible, and they give me an exe directly without a launcher or anything silly (like starsector)>>733789578If they were soulful, they wouldn't charge for DLC, they would make their games cost less over time and refuse to buy into the pilpul of "inflation" and they wouldn't dripfeed games at a snail's pace. At this point NSO should have every single game they've ever made in the past 30 years. But they can't even be bothered to put out half that. AND all of the games should already be available for permanent purchase on the eshop and Virtual console. AND they should be comparable to other storefronts. Like when I bought the Sega Megadrive collection, I got it for 10 bucks, which got me 50 games. Does Nintendo offer a similar deal, where you can get a game for mere pennies on the dollar?
>>733760993>Be SuCcEsSfuL pushing shitI'd never be a good corpo, I can't shake that nagging sense of integrity
>>733789543Probably because everything you just said is a lie.
>>733789841>TP was peakyes, it was!
>>733789578They were soulful a quarter of a century ago. They absolutely aren't anymore.
Ohhhh so this is the reason of today’s seething
>>733790625Lol. no wayAnyway, I prefered forza, and so are sonyfags
>>733790191>If they were soulful, they wouldn't charge for DLC,Read: they wouldn't pay their employees for their work. because nothing scream "soul" like exploitation of workers. >they would make their games cost less over time and refuse to buy into the pilpul of "inflation" again this has nothing to do with the presence or lack of soul, you're just haggling here>and they wouldn't dripfeed games at a snail's pace. quality products take time to make>At this point NSO should have every single game they've ever made in the past 30 years.it pretty much does, aside from Gamecube which just got added a few months ago, almost every game not on NSO is something they don't own the rights to But they can't even be bothered to put out half that. AND all of the games should already be available for permanent purchase on the eshop and Virtual console. Would be nice, but this is more "they'd make so much more moeny if they did it the smart way, which is like the opposite of SOUL". you're literally making corpo arguments for how they could squeeze more profit out of fans>AND they should be comparable to other storefronts. Like when I bought the Sega Megadrive collection, I got it for 10 bucks, which got me 50 games. Does Nintendo offer a similar deal, where you can get a game for mere pennies on the dollar?yeah, they sell the sega megadrive collection on their storefront.
>>733790302they absolutely are. You don't get a game like DK Bananza or Kirby Air Riders from "soulless" devs. If they had no soul they'd have made sure those were a 3D Mario and Smash Brothers game, because those are what would have sold the most.
>>733791976Sakurai isn't nintendo and bananza is absolute ass
>>733791976But those games are soulless. Kirby is literally a soulless cash-in, and Bananza is just a mindless button masher.
>>733792067Did the latest patch fix it?>>733792107Its a great Bugs Bunny simulator.
>>733791872>they wouldn't pay their employees for their work.Indie devs like Team Cherry can pay their employees just fine, while still releasing free DLC. Seems like an issue solely on Nintendo's end.>again this has nothing to do with the presence or lack of soul,The point is that they would willingly lose money just to make their customers happy. That is the definition of soul. >quality products take time to makeOh yeah, because Metroid Prime 4 was a real gem.>it pretty much does, aside from Gamecube which just got added a few months agoGamecube should've been added 8 years ago. And they're still dripfeeding the bare minimum.>you're literally making corpo arguments for how they could squeeze more profit out of fansIt's called giving an option. Are options bad now?>yeah, they sell the sega megadrive collection on their storefront.Really? Last I recall they discontinued the digital version of that game. You can only get it via physical. I was also asking why Nintendo doesn't offer their own games in similarly priced collections.
>>733792067Nintendo hired Sakurai to make Air Riders specifically. they could've asked him to make anything and they said "hey what about making a sequel to that niche gamecube game">Kirby is literally a soulless cash-in,This can't actually be a serious claim. Like, I've seen people who have some crazy takes in my time, but the idea that corporate said "he we need to cash in to make some money, how about a sequel to fucking Kirby's Air Ride, that'll bring in the big bucks" is just so outlandish i refuse to believe anyone actually thinks it.
>>733792374I stand by that notion. If it wasn't a cash-in, they would've made a new game instead of pandering with nostalgia.
>>733792372>The point is that they would willingly lose money just to make their customers happy. That is the definition of soul.no, that's the definition of retarded. asking artists to work for you for free isn't "soulful" its just you being self-serving and entitled. >Last I recall they discontinued the digital version of that game. You can only get it via physical. I was also asking why Nintendo doesn't offer their own games in similarly priced collections.so wait, your example of a "competitor doing what nintendo should" was a game that's been discontinued by its owner. so literally something you can't even buy anymore? because if we're just talking about releases that nobody can get anymore, Nintendo gave out a ton of free games on the 3DS ambassador program. which is a way better value ratio than your 50 sega games for $10.
>>733792509Yeah no, not buying it. someone would have to be completely brain dead to reach the conclusion that "any sequel to an existing concept is just a cash in" that you have to believe to justify calling fucking Air Ride a cash in.
>>733793126It doesn't help that the game sucks. even the fans do nothing but spam tiktok webms of random shit happening without any coherence.
>>733760993fpbp
>>733792909>no, that's the definition of retarded. asking artists to work for you for free isn't "soulful" its just you being self-serving and entitled. I'm the customer. I deserve to be self-serving and entitled. Corporations should suffer for my sake. >so wait, your example of a "competitor doing what nintendo should" was a game that's been discontinued by its owner.Yes. I expect this from sega because they're stupid and greedy, so why is Nintendo following suit and being even worse? I was happy to buy the megadrive collection, but seeing them discontinue it was blackpilling.>3ds ambassador programAnon, that was almost 14 years ago. Are you really saying Nintendo can't be a bit more generous?
>>733793239see, those gameplay webms really just support my point. they don't look good at all to people who haven't played the game. to the point where i do question the intelligence of the people who post them in an attempt to show the game off, but for people who do play the game and can tell what's going on they can be exciting. If the game was a soulless cash in it would care more about broadening its appeal, making the gameplay look good to people who haven't tried the game yet. instead it went for the "once you play it a while you'll get it" which shows the developer cares more about how existing fans feel about the game than how much it'll sell.
>>733793407>Corporations should suffer for my sake.>Are you really saying Nintendo can't be a bit more generous?and the truth comes out, you don't care about "soul" or "soulless" you just want people to give you free shit. your entire argument has nothing to do with soul, it's just haggling. If something is "soulless" then it'll be soulless no matter what the price anon.
>>733793669>but for people who do play the game and can tell what's going on they can be exciting. Interesting, because when someone does post those webms, the fans don't actually discuss the game, and it's always just a shitposting tool used in console war threads. They never bring up how much they like the game, it's always "hah look at this, snoys btfo".Doesn't sound like a good game to me.
>>733793812I expect Nintendo to treat me like royalty, yes. They should be thankful that we do business with them, buy their games, support their products. If they treat people like cattle, then stop whining when people would rather pirate the games. Like look at Nintendo's little buddy Gamefreak and TPC. They are so anal about people playing their games the "wrong way" that they go out of their way to gut releases like the re-release of pokemon FRLG, because they can't risk people using evil emulation features like fast forward. They've even gone out of their way to discuss the evils of nuzlocke runs, comparing them to "evil romhacks".And this is a soulful company to you?
>>733759452all the """people""" you listed there are browns
>>733759452>>733760993I hope the both of you die horribly. If you can’t see what’s wrong with Nintendo, you’re being intentionally dense because you’re an autist who thinks a multi-billion-dollar corporation is their friend because it’s wearing the skin of your favorite childhood squeak toy.Nintendo is aggressively anti-consumer, even particularly in an industry rife with anti-consumer practices, but they get away with it because of the aforementioned autists for whom they can do no wrong. Tendies are the worst fanbase that I have ever encountered. They’re into cheering on electronics companies because they’re too low-T for sports.
>>733794160This but Snoys
