Title: change some of the free games? w00t!
Post by: Marufy007 on July 02, 2003, 12:52:24 PM
im not sure if Nintendo has stated how long they will keep doing this free game promotion, but dont you think they could change a few of the games if they run it any longer? Zelda is fine, but Mario Party 4 and Star Fox? why not move those 2 games down to players choice prices or something? they never shouldve taken out RE 0 either. at least if i wanted a free mature game, it was there. besides, they want to help third partys right? so why not add some of their games in? just a thought...

Metroid and Zelda are good to keep. They could rotate the games, but why bother. If people dont want a cube with a free zelda or metroid prime, then they can just go home and play their ps2. Nintendo is giving a good enough deal now. Now they should probably add a pokemon game to the freebie list when the game is released (pokemon collusium). That should boost sales.
As for giving away third party titles, do you think that other companies would want to give away their games for free? I dont think so. If they agreed then great, but otherwise Nintendo would have to pay the companies to give away their games, so that wouldnt be smart.
On a completely jealous note, I bought my cube at launch, so screw all you people that got a free game just for buying the best console.

Nintendo should keep the free game deal or sales will go down a lot. . . probably. As for new games, that's a good idea, but there really hasn't been any AAA titles as of late to brag about. RE0 should have stayed and they should add Mario Sunshine since it's their mascot and all.

Mario Sunshine is in a bundle so it would be redundant to put it as a free game.

RE0 was doing the worse so they swapped it with Zelda. Mario Party 4 is actually the second most popular behind Zelda.

Dude, it's a FREE game. I don't think people are going to bitch when they pick up their GC and get a choice of Mario Party or Star Fox.
"AW BUT I WANTED RE0 FOR FREE! I HATE NINTENDO!"

yeah dude. that's what it's all about! take everything that's free! i don't think there will be much to complain about considering that those games are the best on the system. I still need to get Metroid Prime in fact...

Whats wrong with you? Go to the store right now. Metroid Prime is my favorite game on the cube, Zelda is a close second.
