These are the people Nintendo is throwing you under the bus for. They're making phone apps, marketing deals, and controller gimmicks, instead of making real Mario, Metroid, F-Zero games, to try to capture a market of ADHD zombies who hop on and off fads on a weekly basis.

welcome to 10 fucking years ago when the Wii was released dumbass

Nintendo didn't make pokemon go

School just started again, fat weeb who hangs in their car playing the game. Kids are busy til next summer now. That's where those numbers came from.

As much cynicism Sup Forums likes to exude you people lack any common sense for the time of the year.

This is why you continue to get fucked royally in the ass and since GO that mobile threads have sparked up in Sup Forums as a regular thing now.

The gate is open, the impending flood has only started you fools.

>These are the people Google is throwing you under the bus for.
ftfyfbsgfy

Come on, that's a no brainer

Big business bullshit policies have always been like this. These days, they are just more blatant about it. I am both sorry and happy for you that your eyes are opened a bit wider now

>Pokemon
>Nintendo

Nintendo didn't make GO.

Regardless, you threw them under the bus with the GameCube. Now you're reaping the consequences. Enjoy.

Wowser. Guess the honey moon is over....so much for that "it's not just a fad!!1!" talk.

i dont give a shit

go bitch about sony
they are the real cacer

>so much for that "it's not just a fad!!1!" talk

I don't think anybody ever said that. It was pretty obvious it'd be just a fad. There's literally nothing to the game.

>it's a "Sup Forums thinks they understand market economics" episode

shouldnt you be at school?

Oh no they only got 30 million people regularly playing

>mfw pokman sun and moon will be the best pokermen games ever made

30mil users still

Christmas user

>Has nothing to do with the ban wave banning botters.

Still retains more players than every other mobile game.

>10 million users out of more than 40 million
that is fucking insane for a mobile game that has been out for more than a month, are you people insane? name one other mobile game that has managed to keep more than 3/4 of its users in that span of time

...

I'm not even a Nintendo fag but even I realize they're clearly just using mobile as a side market. They have said themselves that it's not a sustainable direction.

It's now fucking common knowledge that the mobile market is an unpredictable wild card and mobile companies are biting the dust left and right.

I stopped buying nintendo shit when I grew out of their targeted demographic.

Kiddie shit isn't fun to play I don't know why you adults continue to buy it and cry "WAAH THEY AREN'T PANDERING TO ME ANYMORE" when you should've switched to one of the other three companies that target your demographic.

When was the last time you were excited to see ANOTHER mario game? When was the last time little Timmy even remembers another mario game? It's for him, not for you.

>10 million users

I'm sure most of those were bots. My 3 bot accounts are banned. I sorta don't care to keep playing until they ban normal snipers too.

(You)

>Grew out

Can't wait for you to grow up Sup Forums too.

We don't need more insecure kids here.

>best pokemon game ever made
>z-sync gimmick
>pokemon beauty pageants
>old pokemon painted blue are the "new" pokemon

Schools start in Europe soon. It was the flavor of this summer and it's over.

i would be excited for another mario game, but the problem is they keep making shitty gimmick games with outdated technology. so thats why i dont buy nintendo shit and havent for 10 years or more.

No I'm fucking serious.

Nintendo makes games for kids. Period. They know exactly what they're doing and who they are doing it for, multi million dollar companies don't just make blind business ventures, they know exactly what they're doing.

They aren't making those games for you, why do you think they're so easy?

I'd happily say I grew out of nintendo because they target their games to children and I don't enjoy children's games anymore.

Let me guess, you still play with Play-Doh because you don't give a shit what anyone thinks, right?

Maybe I'm not playing nintendo games because they aren't interesting, challenging or fun, not because I'm afraid of what someone will think.

>When was the last time you were excited to see ANOTHER mario game?
Super Mario 3D World in 2013, and I will be excited for the next mainline Mario game most likely.

You sound like a sad, pessimistic man who is so worried about how others think of them you've created an arbitrary barrier to determine what you can and cannot like. When I was in middle school my friends would talk about how they're playing Doom and how they've grown out of the 'kiddie' games I still played on my N64. Of course I went along with it because I was embarassed. Now we all play Mario and Smash as well as the other 'mature' games because they are FUN, and there is no reason why you should feel ashamed for the games that you play. That's the most childish thing I can think of, aside from like, wearing diapers and shit.

(You).

yup pretty much. they're trying to recapture the success of the wii, but they don't realize that the masses who hop on and off fads are not good for company growth since they have no brand loyalty. These people don't want to keep spending money on you, they just want to hop on a fad for as little money as possible/for free, and hop onto the next one quickly. nintendo will go bankrupt pandering to these idiots.

>Let me guess, you still play with Play-Doh because you don't give a shit what anyone thinks, right?

>Maybe I'm not playing nintendo games because they aren't interesting, challenging or fun, not because I'm afraid of what someone will think.

Gee, people playing a new non-multiplayer game less after a month, how unlike every other game (and mobile game especially).

Who writes these articles?

If you don't think Mario Galaxy was one of the last greatest gaming experiences in recent years then you shouldn't be here. Unless you're only into FPS/RTS games. You guys are weird, but ok.

>mobile games are just fads

Gee, who could have guessed?

>download Pokemon GO
>it's free and takes literaly 10 seconds to download
>play it for a week
>it's fun to walk and collect them when you are not doing anything
>that's it
>there is nothing more to it
>get on with my life

Why do people blow these little things completely out of proportion?

I know these are mostly bait articles from big traffic websites and all, to get the ads money, but still it's literally nothing.

Why do failed fat people take these games and make it the biggest thing and priority in their lives?

your friends were right. I was tired of having my hand held in 1995 and I'm sure as hell never going to pick up another Zelda that's going to make me wait around for 10 hours worth of good boy points before it lets me play the fucking game, which then just becomes a 30 hour tutorial for the single use items you find in dungeons.

>mfw retards were unironically saying this crap wasnt a fad
ayy

I hated the galaxy series, also that's not even a new nintendo game it came out nearly 10 years ago when I was still in the target demographic.

Yes, I played it, it had some innovative mechanics but overall was a boring rehashed experience by the second planet.

>Who writes these articles?
me

Then I think your opinion is void because you're incapable of having fun anymore.

Which I'm happy about because you're clearly a cunt.

>Kiddie shit isn't fun to play I don't know why you adults
>you adults.

MOOOOOOOOOOOOODS

>if you don't like this gimmick kiddy game YOU DONT BELONG HERE

Nintoddlers are cancer

CandyCrush.

I liked 3D World because it was fun, not because I deluded myself into believing that I was only allowed to enjoy games mature enough for a mature gamer such as myself. On top of that, if Nintendo only made games with kids in mind, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Bayonetta 2, Fatal Frame, etc. wouldn't have been made.

>hurr if you don't like that that I liked you are INCAPABLE OF HAVING FUN

whack yourself off buddy

that first sentence implies that I'm out of the targeted demographic

>Let me guess, you still play with Play-Doh because you don't give a shit what anyone thinks, right?

>Maybe I'm not playing nintendo games because they aren't interesting, challenging or fun, not because I'm afraid of what someone will think.

Because 9/10 these are the very people you imagine seeing on trash reality TV that don't have much going on for them in their lives. Shitposting for replies is the closest they'll get to a human conversation and being an autistic ass is embraced here.

So it's like a microcosm of the wii cycle.

>if you can't have fun with Play-Doh you've just deluded yourself into thinking you're too mature to have fun with it

But user, Pokemon Go is a Niantic game with permission from Nintendo to use their IP in exchange for a third share. Niantic have nothing to do with making any of the games you mentioned.

Claiming that Nintendo have made some kind of massive demographic switch to mobile gamers just because they let another company make one game using the Pokemon license is pretty ridiculous.

If you're instead complaining that Nintendo is catering to casuals, you're a bit late to the party.

Us mature gamers right?

The wii had Metroid, good 3D Mario, 3rd party support, etc.

Can you take out time from being a faggot OP, so you can riddle me this:

Han can Nintendo at the same time be whoring out to Niantic/Google, needing their help to turn a dime, and ALSO be abandoning their core audience?

Either they are responsible for the game themselves or they are not.

also sepirothsword57 idolizes mario

>that first sentence implies that I'm out of the targeted demographic


Yeah, I remember being 15 and not liking kiddie stuff too.

>throwing you under the bus for
They aren't throwing any of us under any metaphorical bus by not producing further products for us to enjoy. Sure it sucks but it isn't causing any kind of direct harm to us you melodramatic manchild.

21 though, haven't bought a nintendo system or game in 10 years

>crack smoker robs my cellphone last week
>will to play it: gone

The cellphone was the cheapest smartphone you can find and I had a better smartphone at home because I knew it would happen someday, but it makes me mad because I've worked hard to buy this shit and a fucking hobo steals it with an old gun (unloaded, I tried to grab it and he ran away, he had a partner with a car next to him. inb4 retard etc) while the police doesn't let me own one.

Pokémon Go is a nice fitness app, but the fever goes away quickly while I still like the pokémon main games since 1998.

He said Sonic Adventure 2 was better than SM64

Who are you quoting? I didn't say anything like that.

the update didnt kill the app but it definetly made it lose a ton of momentum

>It was pretty obvious it'd be just a fad.
The data already proves you wrong.

I'm quoting myself because it defeats the "matur gamr" fallacy

Everyone acts like the only reason not to play nintendo games is because of the embarrassment factor but completely aside from that the games just aren't that fun.

Trust me, I'd be playing with Play-Doh if it was fun, but it isn't just like modern nintendo games

wow that is such a MATURE GAMER SUCH AS MYSELF post it hurts. I've been pessimistic of nintendo and their bullshit for almost a decade but what you just said can be applied to anything remotely "targeted to children". To snswer your mario question though I'd say Galaxy.

Honestly, they had it coming the second they removed the grass popup but still didn't change the way how pokemon come out. You still get to see people whipping their phones out for the game, but most dropped it with that update

I assumed they would add then other Pokemon from other gens. right?

>enjoying Nintendo games
>after they went full gimmick with the DS and the Wii
wew lad

Wow it's like you really didn't read any of the replies and just had to say something that had already been said and responded to five times already

This always happens with mobileshit. I'm actually surprised it lasted as long as it did.

Fuck off already dumbass. If you think you're too old to play Nintendo you don't belong here.

>but completely aside from that the games just aren't that fun to me

Fixed that for you. You may have learned this in school if you weren't retarded, but people do have differing opinions. Super Mario 3D World was some of the most fun I've had in a long time. Unless, of course, you're saying I didn't actually have fun because you say so.

Millenials and Snowflakes are not Humans, they are Humans in the same way Germs are. They certainly have the attention span of Germs.

Haha yes. Let it wither and die like my happiness.

>you dont belong here because this is nintendogaf and we dont like anyone who slanders the prophet reggie may his body be ready forever

and you're helping by pointing that out and adding yet another pointless post how?

A second screen on a handheld is actually a great gimmick. Not all gimmicks are bad like motion control.

>He doesn't own a modified wii and ds
>He doesn't own a modified wii u and 3ds

It's just anecdotal, but all the popular spots are still crowded out as the day is long, and when I'm on public transport there's usually at least 2-3 people (aside from me) who are flicking at there screens.

The initial swell of popularity may be waning, but you're still left with a lot of people playing.

Nintendo didn't make Pokemon Go.

do you even know what a fucking millenial is? chances are YOU are a millenial.

more like those games are objectively bad because of incessant hand holding and little to no challenge because of the target demographic

>he doesn't own a mecha dog capable of destroying continents

>3rd party support

The wii had a gimmick, and was cheap as fuck so parents bought it for their kids as their one 'gaming console'. That's the bottom line. After everyone realized the gimmick didn't stand the test of time, no one was wanting to get burned twice on the wii U

The GBA and it's iterations and the GameCube were the last good Nintendo consoles, everything else after that is trash.

I stopped buying vidya shit when I grew out of its targeted demographic.

Kiddie shit isnt fun to play I don't know why you adults continue to buy it and cry "WAAH THEY AREN'T PANDERING TO ME ANYMORE" when you should've went and get a better job and hobby that improves your overall lifestyle.

When was the last time you looked back at your life and feel PROUD? Look at those other people, when was the last time they shut themselves in their room and played vidya for weeks on end? It's not for you.

>thinking pokemon was made by nintendo
good god, at least get the basics right, user.

They paid for it, retard.

>flavor of the month app is dying

Oh no shit, OP, what did you think was going to happen?

The game is fucking garbage and the novelty wears off after a while.

>DS and Wii are full gimmick

>Posts Witcher

What are you, 22?

Not really related to what you're saying, but a modded Wii is pretty god tier. Get some emulators and Gamecube loaders on that thing and you're set.

Hi I'm During my internet time my mom watches what I do every 10 minutes and told me to say sorry. so sorry for the mean words.

Fuck this stupid game. I botted to 40 and they permabanned my account. Niantic can suck a dick.

>Melee machine
>made for casuals

the fuck are you talking about? it even had those "rad" ads on magazines.

hello underage/40 yo nigga

>he didn't dig into the wii library and just assumed it was all party and sports ripoffs.

oh you sad individual. i know the wii is shovelware city but there are plenty of kernals amongst the shit.

Shit man, I'm 23. How did you know?
