There is, big issue though is that every Smash-like is just a Melee dick-riding session which kills off casual players. The constant need to pander to the vocal minority is exactly why they fail, and arguably why Sakurai tells them to fuck off. The games lack that soul Smash had, the extra content that made it a full package and gave reason to play beyond “get good.” Smash was never meant to be a real fighter, something none of the clones understand.
Can we get a Brawl-like someday, considering the scene has had some partial revival, I wouldn’t be too opposed to it
 
No! It's because it spoiled the unannounced playable characters including Sonic. That was the real reason why future games removed story cutscenes though it seems like he brought it back for Kirby Air Riders.
Honestly, I think it was less about any of that and more about just time constraints. Subspace took up an incredible amount of Brawl’s development between the levels and cutscenes. Things would only presumably get scaled up further the more characters included, with the added bonus of likely legal troubles the more 3rd parties were added in - used to be a rumor about Square being an absolute menace regarding Cloud being included in World of Light.

Sakurai and Nintendo also viewed developing trailers as a far better use of resources than making story mode cutscenes.

Exactly! Focus the money on gameplay trailers to hype people up for another Smash Bros game, and he’s using the same energy for Kirby Air Riders but on a smaller scale, aiming to make the best combat racer ever. At least that sequel has a story explaining why Kirby and his friends are riding those interesting new star vehicles, whereas in the first game, it was never explained due to the limited four-month development cycle for the GameCube launch.

Thats what happen when you get to greedy :story:
 
As Nintendo get more greedy they are starting to more and more force their online service on you, the latest victim is their rerelease of Animal Crossing new horizon game for the Switch2 with a not so free updates. Its slowly moving to a payed live service game.

What about the JPY stocks?

They have fallen back to slightly below the start last year's stock price, which is still the among highest the company had had in terms of JPY stocks, so it's far more likely the Switch 2 hype has faded (It only spiked that high largely because of the Switch 2 reveal, after all)

Not even taking into account the amount of money they have in reserve and they'll likely tank it just fine, so don't do ragebait, you're just going to be underwhelmed if you look into it at all,

Man, when they pissed off the Yakuza, it is not a good sign!
 
To be honest I never really noticed how similar his voice and cadence are to Arlo’s until he pointed it out in this vid. Interesting coincidence I suppose (or mayhaps a product of “birds of a feather flock together”)

Also,
Is it just me, or is NintenDeen looking like a pedophile with his avatar looking more creepy?
WTF kind of lines of observation and reasoning led you to that conclusion, lol.

That would require a competent fighting game developer, which Sakurai has proven over and over that he is not.
To be fair to Sakurai it’s the fans who’ve thrust that role on him, he just wanted to make a fun cross-over party game.

The fans didn’t force him to be a twat who sabotages his games with idiocy like randomly making the players trip just because he doesn’t like fighting games, even though the dumb fuck makes them.
 
Did a quick skim and it was an interesting mix of "Nintendo is doing fine, actually.:smug:" and "Pirating old games is morally wrong because it hurts Nintendo."

I just assume anyone who argues pirating decades old software is wrong because it may hurt some multi-billion dollar corporation is retarded at this point. "No! Don't download that Mario 3 rom! If you do, Nintendo might miss expectations on its third quarter financial earnings."

Do they honestly think that a trillion-dollar company like Nintendo is hurt by piracy which costs pennies of chum change? Ridiculous! I'm not even surprised. Then again what else is new?

I mean, some people treat Nintendo like a cult that they worship in (which I'm obliged to repost that one Emplemon video from 4 years ago)


If there's anything that could POTENTIALLY make the trillion-dollar company gain a few less extra bucks, then it's considered blasphemey against the highest of all highs. Triple A games published by S*ny or M*crosoft are a sin, releasing $70 ports of games made in 15 years ago is salvation. All hail Nintendo!
