Malon!
You forgot the Kirby General: >>585824754You forgot the Splatoon General: >>587205956>Question of the threadPic Related
>>587334051I'll get both next time. Forgive me, Kirby and Splatoon bros.
>>587333402I think this is definitely a good idea.>OPQI think I'll go with Mario because it (for the most part) isn't so mistreated, neglected, and/or outsourced.Most of everything else that Nintendo actually does themselves are just rehashes to dip the IP's toes back into relevancy only for them to be forcibly pulled out and kept in cold storage for yet another decade without getting close to their potential.The other options sure *used* to be good, that's for damn sure.
>>587333402My favorite Nintendo franchise is Super Mario.I am trying out the other franchises while I wait for 3D Mario 2027 to be announced.
>>587334656Which have you tried so far?
We're so back!
who rember
>>587335253The lean for balance always kills me
>>587334995Fire Emblem, Metroid, Zelda, and Star Fox.
>>587335520I do now but I forgot since I never use my joycons.
>>587333402>What's your favorite Nintendo franchise?Sonic
>>587336582You joke but would it be fair for someone to say Banjo-Kazooie? Because at one point they were a Nintendo franchise and my brain still associates them with the N64
>>587336976Eh, I'll allow it.Don't know if everyone else will allow it, but I will.
https://youtu.be/XoSBRcQwocE?is=INcvmUtGoF0u2TKY
Does anyone else have anti-Nintendo fatigue?
>>587337741No.
>>587337741I agree with some points people make but at the end of the day they're one of the few big companies still making games that I find fun. Also I prefer their approach to hardware. We're getting severe diminishing returns on graphics now so I would rather have a console that's affordable and small with the option for portability.
>>587337741Tribalism is for faggots.
>>587337576This song singlehandedly carries the early game where you're meant to be walking back and forth levelling up before the cemetery.>>587337741Do not fucking start with the schizo cattle tribalism.
>Switch 2>no 3D Mario, nainline Pokémon game, or Smash>still feels worth itHow did they do it?
>>587338916Easy, they didn't.
Realistically what how long should we expect to wait for MM Remake?
>>587339552Hopefully within twelve months of literal nightmare-inducing crunch work.
>>587339683>twelve monthsOne year closer to 40 wahoo...
>>587339552Early 2028.Pokemon is going to be late 2027, they can't double dip those 2.
>>587339683>Half-Life>Majora's Mask>Deus Ex>MorrowindCrunch works!
>>587340264Halo 2
Some of my beat memories are of me sitting on the living room floor at my parent's house playing OoT, Banjo-Kazooie, and Super Mario 64
>>587338136I have to agree with this anon, I don't think graphics are gonna get much better, like look the bat man arkham games they came out 10+ years ago and they look fantastic or you could do something with a unique art style like say team fortress 2 which has aged rather well save for valve leaving it to die/treating the player base like shit and some of the questionable cosmetics made by the community but that's neither here nor there.don't get me wrong graphics should be better then they were prior it's unrealistic to ask for/want SNES/64 era stuff but there comes a point where it's just sunken cost fallacy, if modern development studio's want to stay afloat they need to lower their budgets, it's just not sustainable long term especially when alot of those big games failing, you NEED those middle/lower budget filler games that DON'T take +5 to 10 years to develop.Nintendo is far from perfect, but they know what they are doing business wise for the most part (save for a few fumbles)
You know what I never understand? Why are some Nintendo franchises considered dead and others aren't? People say F-Zero is dead and they want a new game but I never hear anyone asking for Mother 4. Why is that?
>>587341216The Mother creator says it's finished and fans basically accepted it.
>>587341216Because Mother 3 finishes the story. There's no plot hooks to warrant a sequel. And the creator himself guaranteed they're not touching it.F-Zero is just a racing game with a background plot that nobody cares. They just want to race.
>>587341461>The Mother creator says it's finished and fans basically accepted itThat's actually kind of beautiful.
>>587333402>ningenRemove mortals. Anyway, I've played the most games of Mario, so go with that.
>>587341208Based Wario enjoyer
>>587341216does APE/itoi even exist/do anything these days? (besides saying "you can put ness/lucas into smash") pretty sure the creator doesn't want to make more so... yeahplus HAL is pretty busy with Kirby these days.>>587341596I think most people would be content with a official mother 3 translation though I don't think that's in the cards given mother 3 has some...questionable content that didn't age well. (and the whole copyrighted music fiasco)
>>587341216Honestly I wouldn't ask for a new official F-Zero either since we should already have worldwide online F-Zero GX. We have it for Double-Dash and MK64.If that wasn't the case though then I would say because a new F-Zero can be made even easier than a new Mario Kart yet its unique identity is just left alone to rot.Meanwhile Mother 4 in this day and age would be catastrophic.>>587341496It's still possible because of the fucked up facts that Ness just left Porky completely alone to universe/timeline hop like he did, and that Porky was Kars-ed.Mother 4 would either be nostalgia bait or completely ignore this.
I still want Lip in Smash.
>>587342583Bejeweled 3 is on Steam and despite all of my nostalgia, all I think while playing is "Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack is so much better. Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack would have let me set up that Supernova without robbing me via RNG. Panel de Pon/Tetris Attack would let me actually play Diamond Mine mode without getting fucked after the first move."Is Lip a panty god or shorts bitch?
>>587341742one thing ninendo (and their partner studio's) does need to change is that some of the old head's need to retire or take mentor roles, some of them are really out of touch in bad ways.
>>587343137No need to subtweet Ciggy Shiggy like that.
>>587338916Pokémon was already announced, the other two are likely in the way.
>>587341461>fans basically accepted itThat's not 100% true.>>587342039Itoi has credits to stuff outside games.
I still can't believe we don't have to wait another 8 years for a new 2D Metroid
>>587343623Its gimmick looks really retarded to me. Is it so hard to have a normal game or are we insecure because of Hollow Knight and Bloodstained making the genre really popular for indieslop a decade ago?
Wut?
>>587343961Market is saturated. Need to stand out. Come up with weird bullshit. Free marketing from goyim making memes (totally organic).
>>587343623I like samus portrayed as silly and cute
>>587344476I like samus portrayed as wetting herselfhttps://files.catbox.moe/ithiop.jpeghttps://files.catbox.moe/hamlkc.jpeghttps://files.catbox.moe/rfp725.png
>>587343785>he's asking why the company known for going out of it's way to try new and unique things in it's games makes games with gimmicks in themYou may be retarded.
>>587343315I mean yeah the galaxy movie was dog shit, but I was more referring to other directors/second party stuff, like tanabe was given waaaay to many chances to not fuck up, there's other's too but I won't harp on.
>>587344581End yourself
>>587344476
>>587344476People would scream "OOC!"
>>587344602>>587344719
I think we got our first schizo. A monumental occasion.
>>587344693Galaxy movie was fine and I'm tired of pretending it wasn't.
>>587344094the Nintendo Museum should have been a video game like what Atari is doingi would actually pay a premium for a well researched, in-depth one
>>587344769it's actually in character when you consider the whole saving the animals thing, plus her suit literally has friendship powers sometimes. (and the dubiously cannon cross-over content)
>>587344964I mean yeah it's fine but it's not anything more then 'member berries key jingling and star fox aura farming.
>>587345092
What's your favorite Game & Watch unit?Mine's Bombsweeper.
>>587345534It's movie based on a video game property, it isn't meant to be anything else.
>>587345554what if I told you Kirby lore and metroid lore are eerily similar?
>>587345745I mean I guess but like the first movie was more then that at least....man detective pikachu is so forgettable as a movie, like everyone forgets it exists.
>>587345728I played the SMB one a few times like 30+ years ago and also Octopus.
>>587345868Because it was ill conceived, make a movie based on a Z tier spin-off that wasn't even announced for the west when the movie got announced.
>>587341496>a background plot that nobody cares. They just want to race.F zero is only popular because of the characters, who are only popular because of Smash
>>587346308Music, too. Also only popular because of Smash.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhVExrxjK3s
>>587345762An ancient race creates horrors beyond our comprehension, have seemingly merged magic and technology that is able to do almost anything. Among other things.I'm well aware.
>>587346727it goes deeper then that>both use HAL9000/ 2001 as inspiration>alien creatures that mimic others powers>the space pirate cloning failure, nova/star dream couldn't clone shit properly either>the robobot armor ring transformation mirrors samus' suit animation in zero>hyper is literally just hyper nova complete with rainbow>nightmare exists in both>a dark mirror dimension with it's own doppleganger>giant pissed off brains in jars as the basis for tech>warp tech sending people across time and space>animal friends giving wall jump skills>crazy cult leader who was banished for being a compete nut case and tried to groom child soldiers (raven beak)>putting souls into machines to make them actually alive.all metroid is missing is the literal manifestation of death and a singer that (somehow) captured the angry space rat.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09Ndwd-N-B0Well that's neat.
>>587333402>>587333735>>587334181Thank you Malon fag. I've wanted a thread like this for a long time. And it looks like a success so far too
>>587349745My pleasure.
>>587349745We told you, faggot. We fucking told you all this time to just go fucking make a thread, but did you ever listen to us?No.
If Nintendo says they're not done with remakes I guess Majora is the most obvious but what else? Mario 64? The DS remake already expanded on that game. What else would you do?
I love Luigi
So they're following up Metroid Dread with Metroid Pred. Any chance we could get Metroid Bred after that?
Has anyone bought gift cards for Hong Kong region on PlayAsia? Does it work?
Finally bought a SNES mini.>>587351306Never tried it. Sorry.
>>587323167DLSS version
>>587351306akfamilyhome?
Friendly reminder that Fire Emblem and anime is the reason we don't get new mainline Mario games anymore
>>587355496Both are outsourced.Nintendo are just hacks and treat ports as new full titles.Don't be so greedy, goy. You've already gotten your new 3D Mario (Three in fact!) and a 2D Mario as well.
>>587350910Being generous and assuming OoT AI demake is based on the in-game models, then Mario 64 sure would be something to behold.>The return of Mario's iconic diaper dumpy.>Mr. Cataract https://www.mariowiki.com/Mr._I>Hyper-realistic Dorrie>Bell-end GoombasHonestly though I hope they do do this and it looks like TADC.
I bought Switch 2, And immediately bought wasted 400$ on sales. Am I good boy?
>>587357441Shiggy just might be able to pay off the taxes on today's breakfast now thanks to you. Keep up the good work!
>>587357441thanks for the support! at least my Spanish translation on OoT are put in good use.
one million sold, star fox is back
>>587358539Oorah
>>587346308F-Zero had great music and was super fun and the first “you can turn around the wrong way” racing game I’d ever seen because of Mode 7
Hello, I like Samus.
>>587360948Make sure you don't like her in the wrong way or else
>>587361293I like her for her intelligence.
>>587345592Grim
>>587349057the evercade version of banjo also has stop n swop.
Which games didn't work too well on Switch 1 but work perfectly on Switch 2?
>>587345592i have no idea what that left one is
I don't know how anyone can ve excited fir Nintendo games with Pikmin 4 and Prime 4 being their most recent non-remake entries. Seems like Japanese Blackrock found them.
>>587376349Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, unironically.
I dreamt that I was watching a live action in-person reveal for the next Smash character at a Dark Souls castle. It was for a new shillmon that looked like Raikou.
>>587358539>>587359120I just bought the SNES Classic Mini. Unironically huge Star Fox fan excited to play Star Fox 1 and 2 for the first time. I played Adventure and Star Fox (2026)
>>587355945No Titans though
Metroid Prime was a better remake than Ocarina of Time and Star Fox but you guys aren't ready for this conversation yet.
>>587397843I enjoyed all 3 about equally. Metroid the most but it's my favorite series so I'm biased.
Thoughts on Mushroom Kingdom Fusion?
>>587397843All are shit and don't compare to emulation and native ports (before AI)...When people give a fuck. The most they ever have was for Super Mario 64 and a bit less for Majora's Mask.And then official ports are enough to kill all drive anyway. Why make an HD texture pack for Pikmin when you can just emulate the Switch port with its AI upscaling but with the Nintendo Seal of Quality?
>>587417602What an honor. I can't believe he met Miyamoto
Do you think it's convenient that suddenly Nintendo wants to hire someone for game preservation right after Miyamoto had a health scare?
>>587424035No way Nintendo would ever be the ones to tell those Japanese goycattle filth that preservation is good, actually. They were bloodthirsty way before Miyamoto was as relevant.Like they and Sony literally made emulation illegal in Japan, and tried here but got BTFO because the USG gave a shit about enforcing the free market that day.What you're saying would imply all of their abhorrent Judaism would be a result of Miyamoto and not their (((connections))) and prolific greed.
Is /ninten/ ready for a fourth helping of Famicom Detective Club kino?
>>587350927I hate Luigi
>>587434903This guy really doesn't like Rabbids lol
>>587441540
Will this general actually be a thing or not?
>>587453257Let's find out together
>>587453257I hope so
>>587453257No!
>>587341216Couldn't be be lol. n-next sakurai project, right?
would you play it?
