Nintendo is going to " " " win " " " E3 just by having a single beautiful game with intriguing gameplay, and that pretty much confirms mainstream gaming is fucked up.
It feels like Nintendo is dying of old age, and nobody else bothered to learn their tricks from when they were in their prime. Except indie games, which are the true soul of gaming now.
>Except indie games
I get what you mean but there's another half of indie games that are the same interactive movie bullshit as AAA trash. We need a new label for good indie games.
>beautiful game with intriguing gameplay
I feel like neither of these will be the case
This. Even though I want the next Zelda to be great, I can't help but feel it's going to be shit.
Will Nintendo finally go the way of SEGA?
>the only console manufactures left will be non dedicated game companies making interactive movie schlock
We truly are living in the bad future.
STANDING
ON THE EDGE
>Except indie games, which are the true soul of gaming now.
This game will have taken six years to make. It is either:
>Filled to the brim with unique, engaging content and the greatest game of all time
Or
>Stuck in development hell because Aonuma chased Western game design into a barren open world and didn't know what to do with it, game will show flashes of absolute brilliance but will be weighed down by mediocrity elsewhere
Which is more likely
Why do you have to samefag user? Are you that desperate for attention.
It's true though, for single-player games.
Every single interesting single-player experience I can think of from the past few years, has been an indie game reviving some lesson from the past. Or rare exceptions like Souls games, which have a sort of quasi-indie flavour to them.
>quasi indie flavour
I mean that they're created by an autist who never made compromises, and it's an accident that they are successful.
Presented by these cunts
>quasi-indie flavour to them
That's from being a company that's used to working on a low budget and releasing at least one game every year (usually more).
>"We hope you will enjoy our newest installment for the Zelda franchise!"
>Shows 30 seconds of vague "gameplay"
>"Thanks you for watching now please enjoy our 55 minutes of amiibo showcase"
>"oh and pokemon too i guess"
Yes
>a single beautiful game with intriguing gameplay
You mean meme open world game. If Pokemon SM is on the same level of ORAS Nintendo is pretty much finished when it comes to quality games.
GameFreak makes Pokemon though and Nintendo owns half of it. Nintendo itself doesn't even make Pokemon, just manages it.
>game will show flashes of absolute brilliance but will be weighed down by mediocrity elsewhere
I hate that feeling, where you feel like you ought to love the game more than you do, just to show that you actually noticed how clever some of the stuff is.
I've had that feeling a lot with Nintendo lately. There must be a handful of cheeky young geniuses at Nintendo slipping things through the cracks.
You created this future, Sup Forums.
It drives me crazy how whenever the host leads into the next game in the PC Gaming Show it sounds like it could be HL3 from how he describes it. And then it isn't.
>tfw you are a GOAT boss stuck in a bad game
>year of our Lord 2016
>people are still saying SS was bad
When do you think Nintendo will lose the rights to pokemon?
skyward sword is fucking TERRIBLE
I will not let you zelda cycle fucks try to claim otherwise
the line needs to be drawn somewhere
Literally never since they own enough to prevent it.
