By underrated I meant pushed aside by many gaming fans and selling not as much as it should. I agree, Rayman Origins was the best platformer of this generation.Korten12 said:
Also, it wasn't Nintendo's decision to make Rayman: Legends a Wii U exclusive. It was Ubisoft's, Nintendo had nothing to do with it.
And, Nintendo are being assholes for saving a game that had been canned? Bayonetta 2 would have never happened if it weren't for Nintendo. Be happy that it's coming, and stop getting angry that it's on a Nintendo console.
When people ask for exclusives, they don't usually mean they want a previously 'free' IP anyone can enjoy to get repackaged and taken away from them.ToastiestZombie said:
When people ask for exclusives from Nintendo for the Wii U, they want Nintendo to make decent, original content.
A cancelled game is sad, but shit happens.ToastiestZombie said:
A game with a multiplatform fanbase that can't play it's sequel is just taking the piss.
I would rather it have been sadly but honourably cancelled than put on an exclusive shelf to taunt me forever just because I'm not specifically a Nintendo fan.
So you don't want ANYONE to have this sequel because YOU can't have it? C'mon...GenGenners said:
"I can't have the game, therefore no-one can have it!"GenGenners said:
That is basically what you're saying. Many people will get the Wii U for this game, and enjoy a plethora of other good games (Rayman: Legends, ZombiU, Pikmin 3 etc), you'll be missing out because of your own fault.
A "free" IP anyone can enjoy? Please, enlighten me how a Wii/Steam gamer like myself can get my hands on Bayonetta without forking over a couple Benjamin for a 360 or PS3 to play it. Or does complaining about buying a whole new system for one game only apply in the other direction?GenGenners said:
And Nintendo making decent, original content? Maybe you should stop taking Yahtzee as the @#$!ing gospel and try playing a few first-party Nintendo games. Kid Icarus: Uprising? Game of 2012. The Metroid Prime games? With Wii controls, best console FPSes out there. The Galaxy games? Yeah, they're the next Mario game but why don't you actually crack 'em open and play them and you'll find they're not the same game you've been playing since '85. I'm sick of "gamers" constantly bashing Nintendo for supposedly not bringing out the good stuff while completely dismissing their entire first-party stable as "kiddy rehashes." And yet six years later, you people still just cannot comprehend why Nintendo said "screw these bitchy mother@#$!ers, let's go find someone else" and made the Wii.
It's being PUBLISHED by Nintendo. Good LUCK getting those rights out of their hands.Tohuvabohu said:
Anyway, Bayonetta I found to be overrated, but Nintendo's got another exclusive plus it shows their support of Platinum Games goes beyond the Wonderful 101
So basically: "If I can't have it, NOBODY CAN!"GenGenners said:
Nintendo's publishing it. So while possible, it's extremely unlikely.lockgar said:
What he said. On both accounts.kortin said:
OT: Well, considering the project was almost canned, I say good on Nintendo. Maybe it was a cold business move, but it gets me something I want. Nice to see them actually walking the walk with this whole "we'll appeal to the hardcore" this time. Hopefully this keeps up.
Logically the fans of the original Bayonetta aren't going to buy a Wii U JUST to play the sequel. This is a shot in the foot of both Nintendo and Platinum Games.
Still got that awful tablet. using a touch screen coupled with regular controls is almost as bad and unwieldy as flailing your arms around like a spastic chimp.SuperRobot64 said:
hat actually works against your argument and Nintendo's marketing here. You would need to play the first game (it actually has a damn good story and kinda needs to be played for context) so Nintendo is not looking at you as a potential buyer. They're hoping to get the people who wanted more hardcore games from Nintendo consoles but chose a stupid way of doing it. Forcing people to buy a console for ONE sequel isn't smart. It hurts the chances of sales coming from the people who never played the first game due to not owning a PS3/360.VinLAURiA said:
It stupid in both directions because either way your forcing fans of the original to buy a new console to continue the story, or foring future Wii U owners who don't have a PS3/360 to buy one of those to play the original game. Its a lose lose.
Yahtzee wasn't mentioned at all in this thread until now. YOU just have a chip on your shoulder. It seems you think that ONLY Yahtzee has criticisms of Nintendo. How deluded.
In your opinion. But not an original IP as @GenGenners was talking about. Most people don't like being in pain trying to play video games. Maybe you're a masochist, maybe not but that games control scheme causes pain. And it was also very repetitive.
Because your word is fact right? There are plenty of FPSes that are considered better than the Metroid Prime ones. Like Counter Strike, TF2, Arma, Serious Sam, Painkiller, Metro 2033 and so on.
You mean Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy Again? What about them?
No, but one could argue that they are the same game we've been playing since the N64.SMG 2 was almost the same game as the original SMG, even some of the bosses were the same.
And I'm sick of diehard fans coming on to these forums and raging about ANY Nintendo criticism. I'm also sick of Olivia Munn not wanting to sleep with me but I'll live.
This last sentence doesn't even make sense.
What "bitchy motherfuckers" (yes you can swear on the internet uncensored and no one will scold you) are you talking about? Who's this "someone else" they made the Wii for?
And why are you so damn mad? I can just imagine you frothing at the mouth while typing this. Have a beer and relax, just because not everyone and their grandmother (and believe me, Nintendo tried to sell to gramdmothers) likes Nintendo as much as you do doesn't mean they'll go out of business. Reggie Fil-Aime, while not the smartest executive is a big boy now and doesn't need to you be his Hyrulian Shield online. We like Legend of Zelda too, but like Sonic the Hedgehog, the Hero of Time needs to rest a bit. Same with our favourite plumber. They've already ruined Samus' reputation and that's what we don't want to see happen to our other childhood gaming icons. But their just that. childhood icons. Nostalgia is best left in your head, or played on an old console from time to time. Not bought for the 4th consecutive time because Nintendo re-re-re-re-released it like Ocarina of Time.
Considering the reaction to the Terraria scuffle last week, I find the parallels here very amusing.
