I mean I've been consuming Nintendo games since the 90's. But I also grew up with PlayStation so I guess I just never developed the 100% obsession with Nintendo some did. I'll admit that they have a much more impressive library, but variety really is the spice of life, and I do thank PlayStation for offering some pretty great experiences as well that a company like Nintendo would never do.
I argue that the Playstation brand had a much more impressive library of games overall especially if, like you said, you value variety. The PS1 and PS2 still remain huge vidya behemoths to this day with many classics and niche games. It's funny though how the Switch is a better Playstation console than the actual current Sony console, at least for japanese games, it"s what ultimately lead me to get one.
 
Following up on that thing about ordering a 64gb part since the OLED announcement made them common place:
Had no real reason to do it other than as a flex, but now I can say "Why need an OLED Switch?" That was only 15$ too.

The microSD card in my Switch cost more than the fucking Switch cost. And I've used up 600GB already.

That's real debatable because half the shit won't run right on the switch itself including Legend of Mana or even Disgaea.

The only thing the switch has is mountains of visual novels, but it lacks everything else when it comes to actual real Japanese games. You can't even get Nier running on it and then you dip into asian autism fighters like Guilty Gear and Nintendo's hardware is incompatible.

So it's like if you just want to treat the switch like a picture book kindle then that's it's only strongpoint when it comes to Japanese exclusives, but every other genre has major lack of support or really delayed ports.

Considering that Square Enix has said Dragon Quest 12 is running on the newest version of Unreal that shit is not getting ported until years after it's release again. Unreal does not play nice on the switch at all and the latest version made zero concessions for the switch.

I've been turning towards Playstation and PC for asian autism games.

NEO: TWEWY came out yesterday and it runs like total ass on Switch. It's like the game developer made it for Playstation and didn't give a fuck about Switch performance.

No More Heroes 3 doesn't look good on Switch


Big developers can't get games running properly on the Switch. Smaller developers can't get games running properly on the Switch. Indies can't get games running properly on the Switch.

Honestly, the more I see of NMH3, the more I wish they would’ve just kept that green screen of Suda’s face in front of it.


(Jokes aside, NMH1 both looked and ran like shit on the Wii in the open world segments, just like it does here. Should still come out fine. Probably.)
 
The fact that so much of Switch's best sellers are ported from Wii U is a testament to the fact that Wii U failed because of the marketing, not the games.
Half the people I know just thought it was an add-on for the wii, not an entirely new console.

Nintendo is about retarded when it comes to naming consoles though. Especially the recent habit of just slapping "New" onto things.
 
True, yet it remains the most played console in my household. Super Mario 3D World is a masterpiece.
I'd say that's more of an exception, than anything else.

Nintendorks suffer from a severe case of nostalgia blindness. The most boring, toothless, safe IP in existence just has to exist to sell well, barring the odd occasion where a new game suffers, based on this obedience towards it selling based off the IP alone. Sticker Star comes to mind.
 
It still sold, despite being geared for an even younger audience.
I loved SMRPG and the first few Paper Mario games were pretty cool. I remember hearing they've basically gone to shit since Miyamoto himself chimped the fuck out because he doesn't like Mario games having any depth, story, characters outside the main ones, etc, regardless of what the fans like.

Yeah, the recent games are essentially an RPG sim that's nearly impossible to lose without trying. Although, you might get your money's worth solely on how large Origami King is.

I generally agree. I look at my WiiU games collection and they are all quality titles. Some real gems.
The WiiU was also the wrong console at the wrong time; casual gamers had moved on from consoles to mobile gaming, so a successor to the original Wii wasn't going to have the same impact.
 
Apparently MiiVerse was comedy gold during the WiiU days.
I can personally confirm that it was comically easy to troll, and it guts me that I never took pictures of funny shit I managed to get out of people on there.

So, how much are you guys are willing to pay for an remaster? Because Reddit will buy anything.

Personally, I'd rather wait for something new; but then again, it's Reddit.
Skyward Sword was one of those games where the Nintendo consoomers busted a nut over it right up until release, and then radio silence unless it was randomly brought up, to which they'd give it vague praise just for being a Zelda game, despite anyone who ever went into detail saying it was just bad.

I have not played it to this day and I'm saying this as a huge Zelda fag. I played through Twilight Princess on Gamecube. It was OK but left a sour taste in my mouth. I was really unhappy with all the forced tutorials and faggy melodramatic final-fantasyisque story crap that was creeping into the series by that point. Then they introduced this Zelda game with motion controls and a more robust story at E3 and I thought, "Cool! That looks like shit!" and I never played it. Thank god for Breath of the Wild throwing everything out the window. I probably wouldn't have played a Zelda game again if they kept going down that road.
