I'm in my 40s and I was always an anti-Nintendo guy.Recently I realized that, while I don't have a personal connection with that brand, I am missing a number of games that are exclusive to their systems and I've been trying to play the retro stuff I always missed.Is it normal to feel an aversion for a company to the point of not even wanting to emulate/pirate their stuff?I don't even know why I hate them do much, might have to do with relating the brand with arguing with people online for so long. I am aware it's an irrational hate but it's so ingrained in my mind.
>>12631624Each company has their styles, when it comes to Nintendo I only enjoy2D Mario, Metroid(none of the prime games, Fire Emblem and F-Zero.
>>12631624Yes it's called autism
>>12631640Nobody asked
>>12631648>Passive aggressive faggotryGod what a woman.
>>12631624You should feel this way for every company and brand desu.
>>12631624this is the guy that tells you nintendo sucks haha pathetic
It's perfectly rational to hate them and my first turn away from vidya I have retroactively realized was always just a disgust at Nintendo vidya in general, not vidya as a whole.

le fast-talking funy man
I'm just angry in general about Nintendo.All my teens and young adulthood I spent predicting Nintendo would finally go third party and it's fucking 2026 and still these fucking japanese are releasing their own hardware
>>12631809Of all the console manufacturers, Nintendo was always the least likely to go third-party. Their entire business model is focused around total control of all vectors of the experience.
>>12631809Why were you predicting that anyway?
it's justified because they're the mcdonalds of software>makes cheap dopamine-frying slop specifically targeting children>misses the point that games are about challenging the player the same way mcdonalds misses the point that food is about giving nutrition to the eater>despite these glaring flaws the brand is such a hit with low iq cattle that it taints the entire medium as something mainly for lazy, low-discernment adults and underdeveloped children just like how it would have been nice to have quick serve restaurants that don't exclusively peddle poison, a gaming industry where nintendo didn't define the business would have been a much better world. I dare say video games as a whole would be as respected as literature and movies by now if nintendo hadn't deep-fried the whole medium in high fructuse corn syrup so early on
>>12631857Ideologically, I want to agree with you.But reality shows that the western industry deep-fried the industry in slop, not any japanese company.If anything Nintendo resisted fairly long in their idea of "gameplay before spectacle"
>>12631929Nintendo gameplay is ass if you're older than 12.
>>12631624Nintendo games aren't good but their emulators are always leap years ahead. >snes9x was one of the first good emulators>pcsx2 improved a lot but is still not as good as dolphin. xbox not in the conversation>yuzu/ryujinx were at parity with hardware as new games were still be releasedThere's several good titles for each system. Most of them are third party but they're there. Just finished PN03 on dolphin, gonna play through this VN on ryujinx and after that probably some nes games
>>12631935I want to agree but I think it'll be hard to make that statement true.I want to be mature, but I can't bring myself to enjoy AAA movieslop
>>12631929first party nintendo games havent had good gameplay since before the snes. Every once in a while they hit but usually their strength is vibes
>>12631945Fuck off back to /v/. The war here is RPGs vs shmups. No one will defend AAA. Shmupfags compare jarpigs to AAA walking sims only as a pejorative
>>12631948You're fucking insane.Nintendo games were never good. Even their hanafuda cards play like shit.
>>12631957>Fuck off back to /v/. The war here is RPGs vs shmupsWhere did this imaginary war originate from? Single schizo or there's an actual discord-organized army of autists doing it?
>>12631624>Is it normal to feel an aversion for a company to the point of not even wanting to emulate/pirate their stuff?On the internet is pretty normal. People have nintendo derangement syndrome online. Most people online are also esl and brown so I wouldn't worry what they think.
>>12631945AAA movieslop is for people who hate video games, not all adults. Nintendo is just incapable of making games that are like crack because they're overly concerned with their childlike audience.
>>12631957You're in the minority now. You'd be right if this was /vr/ two years ago
>>12631986Isn't there a pokemon series that are roguelikes?Also, are you implying that a roguelike has bettee gameplay than, say, Punch Out?
>>12631986Based Mature Gamer
>>12631959I like kid icarus, the mario nes games, zelda 1, wave race, even chibi robo. And some second party stuff like fzero gx and smash. Most of their first party stuff isn't bad, just extremely lukewarm and inoffensive>>12631963If you shmup post you get dogpiled by piggers but then other people chime in and fight back
>>12631989I thought those are just OOT tourists here for the weekend
>>12632006>you shmup post you get dogpiled by piggers but then other people chime in and fight backYeah I've seen those shitposts but it all seems the same autist replying to himself. It seems like a scripted routine
>shitty blogpost bait which is a repost of a repost>[FILE DELETED]>thread still up
>>12631815The Nintendo is going teh third party!!!1 was always just wishing thinking. Snoyfags really wanted Tendy games on their system.
>>12632119Excuse me sir, I'm going to have to ask you to leave. We don't do that here.
>>12631929>But reality shows that the western industry deep-fried the industry in slop, not any japanese company.uh, noGaming officially went into the deep fryer the moment this slop dropped and kids ate it up like mana from heaven. That was the beginning of the end. Sony and Sega fought a good fight for many years but its basically impossible to beat cheap kiddie-centric slop in the longterm. I will concede that when microsoft hit the scene they double-batter deep-fried the husk of gaming that Nintendo had created with adolescent retards in mind instead of child tards
>>12632138I agree that RPGs ruined gaming as we know it, but what did microsoft do wrong? Halo wasn't bad for gaming
>>12632138Based Sony fan
>>12632151halo is a fine game but xbox live fermented a new gaming culture that ensured nothing novel or challenging would ever be created by big budget western studios again. We suffered so many years of "big online multiplayer game of the quarter" slop because of Microsoft.
>>12631945>AAA movieslopIs this really a retro board? At this point the games were Zelda 1, smb and Castlevania? Spyro? What does "AAA movieslop" have to do with anything? What games out of these were movieslop and is NES Castlevania an "AAA", if so, do you hate it for being on the Nintendo SNES? Or for being AAA? I thought we liked video games...
>>12632219I just don't like Nintendo
>>12632219MGSFFVIIChrono TriggerPhantasy Star IVall AAA movieslop
>>12631624There are great Nintendo games but nearly all that are praised are slop for toddlers. It's inherently off-putting and repulsive to watch grown men proclaim some children's media as an artistic masterpiece.Humans are biologically compelled to feel the "ick" from that type of behavior.
>>12631624>I am missing a number of games that are exclusive to their systems and I've been trying to play the retro stuff I always missed.The problem you'll quickly find is that Nintendo hardware was always stifling to the extent that third parties were never able to deliver like they were on other systems. This was never a problem with Nintendo's own shallow games for toddlers, where they didn't need powerful hardware. But if you're used to being blown away by third party games on other systems, you'll find yourself disappointed by what Nintendo systems are offering. The Nintendo first party games really are the best the hardware can do, and that's the sad truth. You really haven't missed anything by skipping exclusives on Nintendo systems.
Nintendo is for toddlers. Real adults play real video games for actual mature people who are adult
>>12632343Unironically this. There's nothing wrong with playing games with cartoon characters or bright and colourful graphics, but if the games aren't designed in some way that is captivating for an adult, then it's weird when an adult is majorly into said games.A grown man watching cartoons can be fine. A grown man being a huge fan of Peppa Pig is weird and offputting.
>>12631624>personal connection with a brandlmao
>>12632138I am no RPG fan but it was first-person shooters that actually shit up the gaming universe.
>>12632356This. Nintendo just isn't it. People were only brainwashed to like their games.They aren't good.Well... Maybe they are "fine", but only for really young toddlers. Not for adults.
>>12632356Super Mario Kart is one of the funnest games ever made. It is made by Nintendo.
>>12632412You only like it because you were brainwashed
>>12632412>SNES drones will look you dead in the eyes and tell you this ugly slow piece of shit is one of the "funnest" gamesYou've never even played Outrun. You've never even played Sega Rally. You've never even played Crash Team Racing. You've never even played Project Gotham Racing 2. It's doubtful you've ever played any racing games outside of Mario Kart and maybe F-Zero. Total delusion and arrested development.
>>12632428This.Mario Kart was always for toddlers.Play games like Crash Team Racing instead, which is a good game and has more of an adult attitude
>>12632428Not him but I did play outrun, racing against no one? The most boring shit ever, I would play Mario Kart like any day over race alone likes
>>12631624There are some good Nintendo games but most of them are made for children. You're not missing much.
>>12631624>>12631945>yet another schizo bait thread from the nintendo lolcow

>>12631624I'm a SEGAfag andDespite being massively overrated, there are some genuinely good Nintendo games up to Mario Sunshine. Everything after that is just pure corporate slop and nostalgia bait however.
