That guy has his own forum? That just makes me even sadder about the interwebs.

Because flogging a dead horse is much easier than flogging the horse that just bolted...

TalkBack / Re: Why Nintendo Hasn't Abandoned the Hardcore
« on: July 21, 2008, 06:05:48 AM »I'll certainly get flamed for this, but I'll say it anyways: I no longer consider the Wii a "gamer's console" because as time goes on, there are less and less "gamer's games" for it.
Wow, way to sound like a pretentious arsehole. Is this like the whole "serious games" remark, because I'm getting the feeling that you're doing this for shits and giggles.
I get it - people didn't like Nintendo because there was little in it for the rabid Nintendo fans. I remember those days fondly, eating up the quality first party games. But what right do you have outside your narrow opinion to say that the Wii is no longer for people who like games? Lapsed gamers, non-core gamers, casual gamers, or whatever derogatory remarks they decide to use. They like games too. But I'll bet its not the same games you like. And the fact that you're bitter about it shows that it is these people who are the growth markets for the industry.
I'm glad that the big 3 are looking outside the core gamers (Microsoft's game about swatting things with an eye-toy like device, that was for gamers like you, right?) because video games might be something that you enjoy passionately (or whatever goes on behind closed doors) but they're not fighting for your attention - they're fighting for people coming into the market. If they shared your mindset (cater to the hardcore gamers only) then it would be a bleak market.
Basically, what Morari said except for badmouthing red meat.
Like D_Average said, if you think that Nintendo is going to suddenly do a 180 and release a ton of new IPs aimed at gaming purists, you're kidding yourself.
Hah, gaming purists. What a stupid remark. You sound like that guy on the driving range telling me my technique is wrong. What he doesn't understand is that I'm not a serious golfer and don't have an interest in hitting the ball further. I'm only there to hit some balls and drink some beer (and then do a Happy Gilmore and get kicked out, it was an awesome night).
Hyping an event is something all companies do, and it is odd that people are putting so much attention on Nintendo's conference when basically every publisher/developer out there treated E3 like a minor event.
I hate to quote GP when she's right on the money. I really do. But everyone else seems to be standing on their own soapboxes assuming E3 is still relevant. The sooner they get this through their thick heads, the better. Read it again.
As has been said 100 times by now. Reggie said wait till e3 the core gamers will be greatly pleased.
Sounds like you've never been disappointed before in your life. Go outside.
Instead of coming to the show with some teasers and straight talk for their long-term fans, Nintendo played semantics at E3. They treated us like idiots with their pathetic diversionary tactics.
This just shows that E3 is no longer the showpiece of the gaming calendar for Nintendo. Were Sony and MS guilty of the same tactics?
Disclaimer: I no longer consider myself one of these "hardcore gamers" you guys speak about. I just enjoy highlighting the absurdity in other people's viewpoints. Flame away, the next most-powerful console I have is a PS2 and that's gathering dust.

This thread was too hard to find, but it was worth it.
Done with study. Two bloody degrees worth. Can't recommend it.
Don't worry, I already did the post-exam drunkening (and the pub crawl was an awesome night). I should do another one for that second degree.

funhouse time
If you are feeling down about Nintendo announcing two casual games, and a hug hasn't worked."I've tried one thing, so its time to try something stupid instead. Something that isn't drowning my sorrow in alcohol."
Let me make a great suggestion, that is to buy a Xbox 360 or PS3.Because their announcements were so much better this year than Nintendo's...
Not only do either of these systems provide a good balance to the Wii but you also realize that things really are not that bad.I hope you like shooting things and stories about angry marines...
You get genres of all kinds with these systems. Things are not that bad but as I said, if you can get one of these you will be happy you did!Shaun Bloody White says different...
Try it out, and maybe you won't lock yourself in your basement with Kid Icarus for NES. It is the cure.Or you could just go outside. I hear there's lots to do out there...

« on: July 17, 2008, 12:51:18 AM »IGN had staked their reputations on it by repeatedly hinting that Factor 5 is developing the title and hinting later that it would be at E3.
What have we learned from this? Treat anything from IGN like it requires quarantining before consumption.
First, of all third parties Nintendo could have picked to start things off with, they picked Ubisoft.
I was quite surprised to see them too, especially after the BG&E shitstorm that occurred a while ago.
Secondly, I've always bemoaned Nintendo's self-congratulatory segments.
It could have been much - they could have used piecharts. Perhaps they did (I haven't watched the conference, and pretty much steered clear of any E3 news - most have said that its been lackluster), but I still get a laugh out of Sony's habit of using a lot of piecharts in their conferences, rather than awkward celebrities or trendy geeks.
