Is Aonuma the only nigger at Nintendo who is willing to put his ego aside and listen to fans?
Watching Sakurai talk about Smash Bros or Shiggy talk about SF0 or Tanabe talk about Federation Force or Tabata talk about Colour Splash They've all got their heads up their asses
I think I preferred it before with had these Directs
Aonuma still has a massive ego. It's just that Miyamoto forced him into the position he's been at this whole time. If anything he grew tired of Zelda and wants to move on. He's recently spoken of wanting to make a thief game. No doubt riddled with puzzles and lame NPC fetch quests, but hey it's something.

Lucas Campbell
Aonuma is NOT a hack. Zelda fans don't know what they want.
Luke Hall
>Nintendo: "Hey uhh.. Only Western audiences like Zelda so you should probably pander to them in your next game" >Aonuma: "Cool, what games do Western people play?" >Marketing Team: "Our research says Open World games with survival elements are very popular there" >Aonuma: "Say no more senpai, I've got the perfect game" >Aonuma: "Hey MonolithSoft! You guys made an open world game right? (Xenoblade X). Want to make another?" >MonolithSoft: "S-sure Master Nintendo, whatever you say"
That's probably how it went.
Gavin Brooks
I can't wait for the splatoon-style of development to take hold within nintendo We're in for a golden age bros
David Stewart
More like >"MonolithSoft-Sama, we don't know shit about open world games, save our asses will ya?" >"Whatever grandpa"
Jose Reed
Or they decided to take the series back to its roots when it was superpopular.
Ryder Flores
Thank god Monolith has the technical knowledge, because everything else they've delivered is fucking GARBAGE to anyone with a minimum of cultural background. What a bore.
Nicholas Gonzalez
>Is Aonuma the only nigger at Nintendo who is willing to put his ego aside and listen to fans?
No, because that's why the DS Zelda games exist.
Cameron Reed
Nintendo fans are, at large, braindead morons. It's not ego that makes them ignore them, it's common sense.
The games are bad because they were badly made, not because they ignore pigs.
Leo Martinez
can you not jump in BotW?
that seems odd
Dylan Carter
You can jump in BotW, it's the first Zelda gem with a dedicated jump button.
Dude in the webm still would've been fucked though.
Caleb Scott
>Aonuma You mean the rice-dick that thinks Zelda is the most fun when you are cutting grass looking for rupees? Im not implying, he literally said that in an interview
Jaxson Long
You can jump but there might be a lot of small ledges so it's easier to make Link just snap on them as if he's on stairs.
Zelda II I want a new game like it. If only. Just shit out some low budget filler some time, please.
Ryder Stewart
fine then first 3D zelda
you niggers knew what I meant
Cameron Green
>Sakurai Agreed. Sakurai gives no fucks and just makes the game he wants to make. That has its positives and negatives, but for shit like Smash the negatives outweigh the positives.
>Shiggy I don't think Shiggy has much of an ego, he's just out of touch in a lot of ways.
>Tanabe Tanabe knows the fans want Prime 4/a new 2D game. He outright said he wants to make Prime 4 but wouldn't be it for the Wii U because by the time it would be completed the Wii U would already be dead.
Federation Force seemed like a passion project with really fucking poor timing. If it was announced or released alongside a proper Metroid game nobody would give a fuck.
>Tabata This one seems like pure obviousness. They said they started work on Color Splash immediately after Sticker Star, so they already had the main idea of the game down before they could listen to feedback. Sticker Star reviewed relatively well too (because reviewers are retards) and the backlash from the fans came later, it wasn't immediately after launch.
Now if the next Paper Mario game is another Sticker Star/Color Splash, after the clear-as-fuck backlash to Color Splash, they've got huge fucking problem.
David Bailey
Tabata diodn't mind scrapping the entire first Paper Mario 3DS when Shiggy told him that it looked too much like TTYD
But critics, reviewers and your entire fanbase tells you that your game is shit? BETTER STAY THE COURSE

>Tabata diodn't mind scrapping the entire first Paper Mario 3DS when Shiggy told him that it looked too much like TTYD
>boss tells you to do something >do it or get in hot water
>But critics, reviewers Again, reviewers are fucking retarded and Sticker Star reviewed fairly well (pic related).
>and your entire fanbase The backlash against Sticker Star built up over time, it wasn't an immediate thing. And Color Splash started development immediately after Sticker Star, there wasn't much of an window for them receive the negative feedback Sticker Star has garnered within the past few years.
I'm not trying to defend Color Splash, the game looks like garbage and I'm just as pissed as everyone else, but its creation is partially understandable.
