All of the Sakurais out there are long gone because of all the bs surrounding this and a lot of other industries for the last 2 generations or so. Plus they know they can get away with it.

You picked the best example of old Nintendo and the worst of new come on user

Capitalism happened, baby. No one honestly does anything and puts their heart and soul into it, they do it to make fuckin' MONEY. This isn't just videogames, either. There's almost no medium left on earth that still has honest people that just want to spread their works to the world, they've all been phased out by moneymakers who know how to exploit the masses for max profit.

Splatoon 2 was the made the way it was because nobody bought a Fucking Wii u
Adam Fisher
All of pre Wii Nintedo games were like Melee and all of their post Wii games are like Splatoon 2

Gamecube was $199 at launch and they cut it to $99 because it sold so fucking bad
Leo Cooper
Never once has Nintendo launched a console at anything below $199.

David Smith
That's a reason for rehashing to fuck?
Nolan Hill
>free updates are just content that shouldve been in the game at launch
"free" DLC is rarely done right and Nintendo certainly isnt a shining example for it
Lincoln Morris
>Promise to return to Gamecube days where the console is not the focal point, but heavy emphasis on good games instead. >Make gimmicky waggling sticks tablet instead.
Hudson Gonzalez
Difference in hardware between the n64 and the gamecube was gigantic compared to the difference in hardware between the wii u and switch you retarded faggot
Eli Green
How about just having all that content in the game to begin with and then adding more later? Splatoon 2 is really bare bones when it comes to content. It actually has less content than the original. Very few maps that you can't even pick yourself and a fairly short singleplayer campaign. Also, they actually removed the splitscreen multiplayer and there are still no options to play against bots.
Jaxon Reed
OH YEAH I FORGOT >new horde mode, but you can only play it when Nintendo allows it

They suck at making games. They should just go third party.

be sure to buy hard mode and get your EXCLUSE nintendo switch shirt for link! you'll get ONE (1) measly 15 minute dungeon too in a few months, goy!
Why is OP bitching if the scores these games got reflect what he just said? It's not like splatoon 2 had an over 90 metacritic score.
Bentley Perez
I'm saying that More Money prioritizes making actually good Games because the masses will consume whatever trash is sent out so long as you market it correctly. Hype Culture is literally all you need to sell a game these days.
Ryder Kelly
>it has some of the best games of it's all time generation and most are still played today
you mean like super mario sunshine and wind waker which are considered by many to be the weakest entries in their respective series?
Bentley Garcia
>A Link Between Worlds >Super Mario Run >Triforce Heroes >Twilight Princess HD >Wind Waker HD
Dylan Barnes
>Smash 64: 79 What the fuck? It was the single best mutliplayer game of the generation and it only got 79? I mean, it's still a good score, but it's considered low by today's standards. Maybe scores actually made sense back then? I don't even remember reading any reviews of it when it was new.
Daniel Powell
i think you mean mario 3d world and breath of the wild, sweetheart.
Dominic Garcia
>A Link Between Worlds What was wrong with this game again? It was good and had no bullshit amiibo shit.
Mason Ward
no i don't you dumb frogposter

It was a literal ALTTP rehash. Might as well have been called New Link To The Past
Gavin Sullivan
Eventually corporations go full jew and try to eck out as many shekels possible to beat earnings the next quarter. Is this the point you're trying to make?
Benjamin Sanchez

Shit's garbo
Cameron Smith
it's better than alttp in every way reddit
Anthony Hall
That's what it was going to be though. A remake. But, they revised it and added a new gameplay gimmick to make it it's own thing. What's wrong with that? It was a good game. One of the best Zelda games to date.
Levi Gomez
For your sake, I hope you didn't type all that out and copypasta it instead. There's better things to do you know, like playing video games.
Cameron Barnes
>amiibos
Ethan Gray
>what is BOTW (after performace fixes) A sub-30fps game. The framerate issues are still really bad, but the average framerate is below 30fps.
Jace Reyes
>nintendoomed for having ports at launch (this list goes on) Also >glorified tablet with wagglin sticks, weakest console of this generation Just like the Wii, DS, and 3DS?? What else is new.
James Lopez
something something Grimoire, hope sapetendo goes out of business they are the new jews
Benjamin Rivera
youtu.be/HWy2vOe-z3o Yes, there's dips to about 28fps, but it keeps its 30fps. >28fps?! UNPLAYABLE
Jonathan Davis
Original Splatoon was an entirely different game after a year an a half. Shut the fuck up and stop shitposting with my wife.
James Torres
today's standards are way too high.
Jayden Hernandez
Because timing, gamecube was 60fps. Wii U and beyond has always had timing issues with anything that isn't an emulator.
Chase Turner
You mean low, right? Everything gets at least a 7/10. 8/10 isn't even a bad score.
Colton Thomas
>it's the weakest console of it's generation you have some unrealistic expectations if you think the Switch is genuinely weak, it's pretty powerful for a handheld
Josiah Perry
>To about 28fps
Jack Thompson
Am I crazy? Every time I dodge an enemy my game drops to like 5fps.
Jackson Stewart

Angel Kelly
they need to rush and port the switch a decent first year lineup while they work on the real switch games.
Nolan Foster
metacritic is utterly irrelevant for anything released before its existence. hint: it only became a thing last gen.
