miyamoto didn't like the cube either and he made it's only good game (pikmin)
to become a cubie is to be forced to play it as a child with no other options available
it's my only explanation
>>

>time limit
Fuck that shit
>>
>>12228932
>What the fuck went wrong?
Poor hardware, poor games library, people only got it if they cared about tendie IP. Same story as the N64 and SNES before it.
>>
>>12228952
Snes had superior games and hardware compared to the genesis
>b-but muh generic space shooters
Yeah no one cares they are on every console
>>
>>12228940
>xbox live
>ps2 broadband
>even dreamcast had a built in modem
meanwhile cubes had to wait for a separate accessory to release with 3 games to even play on it
in an era where major strides were being made with online gaming on consoles, nintendo completely dropped the ball and had to wait until the next gen just to play catchup. might not've been the sole factor, but it definitely contributed

well the only other options had were
>zelda but the art style is gay and you spend 80% of your time doing busywork traversing an empty ocean
>the worst 3d mario full of copy pasted beaches and filler blue coins
>paper mario 2 with the first trans character in gaming
>the worst starfox game
>the literal who mario kart
>the worst 2d zelda where you need 4 handhelds and 4 gcn-gba cables to have any fun with....

We were still playing couch and inviting friends over, internet back then was shit.

It was an ok system actually and I had good times with it, but because cubies are annoying, I'm going to pretend it sucked too
>>
>>12228957
>Snes had superior games
Only if you care about tendie IP.
>and hardware
Objectively false, it was the worst console hardware in the entire 16-bit era and categorically inferior to the Mega Drive by almost every metric.
>>
>>12228964
>literal who mario kart game
I agree with everything else but this is stupid, Double Dash takes a massive shit over MK64, Super and Advance, its the one that defined the series as well.
>>
>>12228973
And sega is only good if just care about Sonic because everything else is mediocre, meanwhile Nintendo had Square, Capcom, Enix, Konami, Atlus, etc

Sega had what? Some literally who Americans porting mediocre pc games?
>>
>>12228973
If the hardware is worse then why do most snes games look better than most genesis games?
>>
>>12228964
How convenient that you forgot Melee
>>
>>12228985
>And sega is only good if just care about Sonic
LOL, most Mega Drive fans don't give a fuck about Sonic. I wouldn't expect a SNES drone to be able to think of a console outside of the tiny handful of popular first party titles though, since that's all you really have.
>Capcom, Konami
Produced nothing but shit for the SNES, and you would know this if you actually played the games that aren't tendie IP. Are you really going to tell me Contra 3 and Mega Man 7 are supposed to be amazing games? I'll give you Mega Man X, but there's literally nothing else from these two that are worth playing on SNES.
>Square, Enix, Atlus
Nobody gave a shit about them until after the PlayStation. Nobody was talking about SNES Final Fantasy until FF7 came out, was rightfully very popular, and the SNES drones got jealous and started pretending that their RPG Maker slop was somehow comparable to the golden age of RPG's that we were seeing on the PlayStation.
>Sega had what?
Dozens of the very best titles across nearly every genre, made by countless developers of all sizes. It was the best time, I'm sorry you missed it. I'm sure Mario and Zelda was worth it, though.

>most mega drives fans don't care about Sonic
Yeah sure, then they cry and bitch so hard about the Saturn not having a 3d Sonic
>>
cubies always start shitting on the snes and n64 when they’re under the microscope. the saddest falseflag they have
>>
>>12228992
>why do most snes games look better than most genesis games
SNES can do more colours, so in a screenshot, the games do sometimes look better, but the Mega Drive was higher resolution, had better sprite animations capability, had better particle effects, could generally do more with sprites, and didn't suffer constant slowdowns and input lags in doing so.
>>
>>12229019
Cubies love the SNES and N64, since those are like the previous generation versions of their favourite console. What cubies don't like is the NES, since it has way too many third party games for them to have to focus on. Cubies get confused and angry if the console has more than just Mario and Zelda worth playing on it.
>>
>>12229013
Like it or not more people literally talk more about any of those snes than any Genesis game that's not Sonic.
>you missed
Oh that's where you are wrong I HAD a genesis and not a snes back in the 90's, and still found most games fucking mediocre, then I emulated snes games in the 00's and was blown away by how fucking superior they were.

Only small-minded idiots are mad that Pikmin 1 had a time limit. Even women have beaten that game without using cheats or save states.

They got too cocky. It actually wasn't any different to Sega with the Saturn/DC but only one gets called a failure because of the pro-Nintendo bias in anglophone/european media.
Same for marketing, Sega always gets the flack for aiming at teens but it was Nintendo who were the outlier for aiming directly at kids.

Refused to learn the lessons of the SEGA Dreamcast, despite having plenty of time to do so.

If it had a DVD drive, and the GBA adapter was announced at launch, who knows…

>defined the series

>worst driving mechanics in the entire franchise
its better than super and advance but thats not saying much.

Every day I wake up, remember Nintendo exists, and I get angry.

>brownstation worshippers have no (good) games to play so they spend all of their free time seething over a console people actually enjoy playing spamming the board everyday with the same tired meltdowns

i got one of these for free from someone moving house and it's still rotting in my attic because it quite literally has nogamez. weird amerimutts seem to be the only ones who bought it.

The karts control better than in 64, what's to hate? It's superior in every way? oh no it dropped the shitty jump no one used
>>
Did you know cubies can’t even click their sticks in? Can you imagine getting ripped off that fucking bad

Literally only useful for quick saves and quick loads on emulator
