What makes Nintendo so special?
>>737851290makes polished games that are fun simple as
The Duskbloods and ff14 release
>>737851290They make games. Next thread.
I've never seen a compelling argument for why Botw doesn't completely mog the shit out of Oot. Botw is obviously so absurdly good it beats the game to an inch of its life, says an iconic Jojo line in Japanese with subtitles, and then tosses Oot into the Ww sea.
>>737852269That's like saying you can't find a compelling argument for why apples are better than oranges. One is an actual Zelda game and the other is every open world game on the market. They're two entirely different games. You either like one or the other or both for different reasons.
>>737852371You can make a lot of things out of apples, far more than oranges. When life gives you apples
>>737852371>One is an actual Zelda game and the other is every open world game on the marketthis is just false no matter how many times you dorks repeat it
imagine good games
>>737853013Zelda isn't Zelda if everything I can find via exploration is a slight shuffle of something I found by traveling from A to B. The reason people fall back on mentioning items in dungeons is because getting something that lets you engage with new mechanics is obviously not possible to copy and paste somewhere else verbatim.
>>737853230Its Zelda whether you like it or not. That's like saying OoT isn't a Zelda game because its not like Zelda 1 or 2
>>737853342How is OoT not like AoL?
>>737853392>this side scrolling game with RPG mechanics is Zelda>this linear third person adventure game is Zelda>open world? NOT ZELDA REEEEEE
>>737853570neither zelda 1 and zelda 2 are open world
>>737853230>exploration in Oot be like
>>737852269BotW is century defining
>>737851290The games they made in 1986 and NOTHING ELSE.
>>737851290Games.
>>737853623Zelda 1 is open world, and so is ALBW
>>737853623never said they were
>>737852371>actual Zelda game
>>737853758cool map
ITS MY CHILDHOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>737851290They make shit games for fetuses and mentally stunted manchildrenNintendo hasn't good for a long time

>>737851290samus
>>737854123in TP link can turn into a wolf. According to you it was some furry conditioning based on this?
>>737857464Im pretty sure the etika joy con thing was a scam LOL
>>737857464damn most of these are such nothing burgers
>>737857464reddit
>>737857464>Lacking hardware powerLMAO dis nigga wouldn't survive the PS2
>>737857464tendies btfo
>>737859629>btfoLmao? Why because nintendo actually does things?
>>737851290They make 1 good game per generation and sell it to you for $500.
>>737860303What have they done recently that's groundbreaking? Try your hardest to not mention sony because I don't care about them
>>737861763idk, THE WHOLE FUCKING SWITCH GENERATION?!!?!??!?!?!?!??
>>737861763Donkey Kong is groundbreaking>nb4 there's been level destruction beforenever like DK did it, tunneling through the ground in a good looking 3D platformer
>>737864183>Donkey Kong is groundbreaking because.... YOU CAN BREAK LE GROUND>good looking
>>737864183besides, voxel destruction might as well be a lost tech for devs nowadays so It's great to see Nintendo take a stab at it and I don't have to play Red Faction: Guerrilla again
>>737861763>What have they done recently that's groundbreaking?making non shitty multiplayer games. Splatoon should be the fucking standard of what multiplayer shooters should be. Also I will laugh when Splatoon raiders comes out and completely mogs all other extraction shooter games
>>737864246>buckbroken this hard by DKok I make it simple, you can rip up the ground and skate around, use it to double jump, and throw it where you aim, or swing it around like a weapon too. you ask for groundbreaking, I hand you literal groundbreaking on a silver platter, your mind shatters to shitwhat other developers breaking new ground, nobody, that's what I fucking thought chump
>>737851290Nostalgia. Right now, they're just as shit if not worse than the worst companies in the video game industry. Nintendo fans are the video game equivalent of Disney Adults.
>>737864246The new DK is so retarded looking
Nintendo makes games while Sony is trying to convince their fans to lease the console and sign up for game pass.
>>737864337Splatoon raiders is only pve/pve co-op right? That's the only reason that it will mog other extraction shooters
>>737861763Make the switch a swiss army knife of consolesHaving the Switch still be portableFitting mouse function in a controller formatImplement actual game design principles in an open world formatRaise the bar for 3D platformer movementsFully allows new ips and ideas to still be viableAstral chain is BASED. AS. FUCK.Metroid dread actually brought in a new era for metroidvanias Make RPG combat more interesting and actually fun with the Mario and Luigi seriesIn general, while expensive allow games to not always have DLC and NO MTX
>>737864337Splatoon is peak and the fact it’s mostly ignored on /v/ (like counter-strike) is just evidence of its absolute superiority.
>>737864402worst? WORST??? LMAOOOO bro come on
>>737864402>uses Nostalgia cardopinion discarded
>>737864450>Sony just introduced new DRM to their gamesthose fags can never catch a break, I try to tell myself that they're mentally unwell and to be nicer
>>737853570>this linear third person adventure game is ZeldaI'm sick to death of how all of a sudden people are labeling OoT 'linear', when all they really mean is item gated, and trying to lump it in some category distinct from LoZ and BotW, as if it's anything like TP or SS.
>>737861763making games with an actual artstyle
>>737851290All their fans wear diapers regardless of age
>>737864637>when all they really mean is item gatedProgression of the game? oh it's deku tree, then death mountain, then jabujabu, then either forest temple or fire temple, then water temple, then shadow temple, then spirit temple. Item gates or not, it's linear.
>>737864460yes, splatoon raiders is focused on being a singleplayer game. But really, I feel like that's EXACTLY how other extraction shooters SHOULD BE and not live service shlock
>>737864460>Nintendo does something>it mogs everyone elseevery time
>>737864667notice how this posters targets the "fans" and not the actual games>>737861763Animal crossing new horizons is still the best selling game of the 2020s
>>737864559>worst? WORST??? LMAOOOO bro come onI'm sorry. Your mentally retarded incredulity is not an argument, especially after the shit they pulled with their lawsuits. https://fathomjournal.org/495d6e9fsmm/501f72f9-Kzvum8RxemQ.htmlHonestly, just shut your mouth.
>>737851290Most polished gamesBest IPsFocus on gameplay over story (ironically pretty rare nowadays)
>>737864763No, this would be the first time in a while
>>737864775>Nintendo did the bad!>what did they do?>sued pirates a' gain!
>>737864775lmao lawfaring is not that evil my nigga. Aaaaaaand this somehow personally effects me????
They make good games for kids, but i cant phantom why grownups buy that shit. There is literally only games for kids, basically shit I played when i was a young teenager. Maybe there are some niche Jap games I have no clue about that might be good? If they ever release some nice 18+ exclusive games I might consider checking it out, but for now hard pass.
>>737864767Games don't wear diapers
>>737864797Not quite anon, you seem to need to brush up on recent events. As far back as 9 years ago, we saw them innovate plaforming and open world, then they innovated competitive multiplayer, then they innovated life sim, then they innovated
>>737861763having a fucking form of professionalism
>>737864862>we saw them innovate plaforming and open world
>>737864840maybe you should corporeal why grownups buy THE shit
Great character design and variety of interesting art-styles that are usually a blend of western and anime. Really polished movement that feels like a videogame and not cinematic slop with slow animations where your input is more like a suggestion than direct control.I don't like when they add shit like bullet-time or parrying or crafting into their games.
>>737851290huge variety of games and are of consistent quality ranging from decent to masterpiece
>>737864819>sued pirates a' gain!They tried patenting capturing animals, you dumb retarded faggot. Which was happening BEFORE Nintendo and Pokemon arrived.
>>737852371ocarina is not a zelda game
>>737864906>he is oblivious to the last decademany such cases
>>737864830>lmao lawfaring is not that evil my nigga.Yes, it is, Nigger. >Aaaaaaand this somehow personally effects me????Yes, because it signals to the rest of the human species with a soul that you have none, and you'll probably die defending your heroin and child pornography.
>>737864954lots of japanese companies have patented things including kojima
>>737864954They didn't do that, Gamefreak and Pokemon Company did. I cannot think of anything Nintendo themselves patented in an attempt to prevent others from doing it. They are famous for doing so just to ensure nobody else pulls that shit on others. Shiggy joked about how he should have patented jumps lol.
>>737864963>here's you're innovation bro
>>737865027What is your webm meant to convey?
>>737865027Damn TotK is fucking FUCKING OPEN
>>737851290a fanbase with no quality demands
>>737865089what is playstation? for 500$
>>737864998>lots of japanese companies have patented things including kojimaYeah, dipshit. And it's wrong for trying to copyright things that have already been used. It's the same reason why I give WB shit for patenting the "idea" of the Nemesis system. >>737865009>They didn't do that, Gamefreak and Pokemon Company did. "Nintendo and The Pokémon Company filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair, Inc. in September 2024, alleging Palworld infringes on multiple patent rights."Motherfucker, shut your mouth. Or else, I'll have to slap you back down again, and I'm already bored of your sub-ape hot takes.
>>737854184Learn to read then, arrest yourself and go to bed.
>>737864919well far from all. The only few I know either have kids or its just to get that nostalgia kick from games like mario, zelda and more.There is also one dude I know that just owns every console and just loves all kind of games.The big majority I talk with just owns a good PC which is like 90% and thats it.
>>737861763I can make a penis in TotK
>>737864763I know. This is why the Disney comparison doesn't work. It's like, yes, Nintendo fans can be manchildren and all that, and their games often appear childish, but Nintendo truly does mog the fuck out of everyone else and has the highest standards in the industry.If you had to choose between:a) You can only play games on Nintendo (first and second party) games for the rest of you lifeb) You can play everything else, *except* for Nintendo games (so no PC ports or emulation of them)it would be perfectly reasonable to choose (a).Someone who exclusively watched Disney branded films, excluding everything else, would rightly be called childish, because as good as Disney can be, they're only so good and cinema has so much more to offer someone beyond what they can.This legitimately doesn't apply to Nintendo because at their best they're capable of offering levels of refinement that you hardly see other developers being capable of, and there's nobody else beating them at their shit.
>>737865121law is fucking law you fucking brown nigger
>>737865121*The Pokémon Company filed a lawsuitand besides you seem incredibly naive and lack worldly experience anyway so I'm not going to engage you farther
>>737851290No blACK people.
>>737865195>law is fucking law you fucking brown niggerWow, you care more about the law than morality. You sound like a Jew. And not a particularly smart one at that.
>>737865195shut up nigger
>>737865193Disney doing nothing with Starwars all this time now, it just kills the soul.
>>737865027Then there's me, the hylian chad attaching it to my horse harness and dragging it like a nigger.
>>737851290It's fun
>>737865209>and besides you seem incredibly naive and lack worldly experience anyway so I'm not going to engage you fartherTranslation from 737865209: "I am too fucking retarded to actually address the criticisms and facts I've presented. I am taking my ball and going home, and I'll say I won!"
>>737865215MORALITY IS NEEDED FOR LAW!??!?! ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!??!
>>737865221oh yeah I forgot about palworld, did it ever fully come out?
>>737865027The problem here is that, for all the flaws BotW/TotK have, other open world games are generally so borked and either limited or broken that the polish and flexibility they offer is genuinely a massive step up. Elder Scrolls is hacked together crap made to be modded, Witcher is really basic and repetitive, and GTA/RDR are way too mission focused while having badly thought out mechanics.
>>737865269>MORALITY IS NEEDED FOR LAW!??!?! ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!??!Yeah. Laws come from morality, you marxist Jew. Hey faggot, I thought you weren't going to "engage with me further"? I guess you're an idiot AND a fucking hypocrite.
>>737851290big ol titties and femininen women
>>737865269Shalom! Questioning the law is highly anti-semetic!
>>737865331this further proves that it's always the governments fault. Fucking commies
>>737865285still in early access LMAO
>>737851290TotK was a silent stagnation of the franchise, even more than even haters claim.10 years after BotW and ToTK is just a expansion pack DLC 7 years later.Ideally we should already be playing a new Zelda game that builds upon BotW. and not the building gimmick we're indifferent to and already forgotten about in TotK.
>>737851290God-tier employee retention means that institutional knowledge is preserved, while also bringing in enough new blood to keep the system fresh. Super Mario Bros was made by, what, five men? Every single one of them were still in the credits for Super Mario Wonder.
>>737851290>What makes Nintendo so special?nostalgiamodern nintendo is as greedy and anti consumer as the rest of the industry
