Well it's because the games still sell at these prices, really. People still buy them.

It's not "great for them". They're restricted by retailers who will drop their products if they try to undercut them. That's the issue.

Pic of the day. In general, there are completely different stages in the 3DS and Wii U version, but we made Wily Castle and the special boxing ring available for both versions! We didn't forget the Yellow Devil either. There may be some small differences in the stages, such as the 3DS stage appearing to be during daylight hours.

This I can explain, without people jumping down my throats. Basically, Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft can't, outside of sales and special offers, sell their games on their own storefronts for less than the recommended retail price. If they do, then retailers will just stop stocking it. In time, some games (most non-Nintendo) do drop in the price in retail, but the RRP is still the same. Sometimes, they lower the RRP, but it takes a while and Nintendo seldom does it because, well, their games sell over time. Most games are ridiculously top heavy in their sales, so other publishers drop the price sooner. Nintendo games though, still have ridiculous legs. Last year, Mario Kart Wii sold 1 million new copies. Nintendo of Europe and Japan do get around it with their special deal and promotions to encourage it, but it'll never be cheaper than RRP. The Nintendo Network Premium thing is another way for them to encourage it. You get money back, afterall.

Will you stick with Nintendo in the future?

Didn't they say either they're considering voice chat or it will have it?? Could have sworn I read that -

Perhaps, but online titles do exist and are common on Nintendo platforms. It's a bit disingenuous to use "online gaming" as a jab against Nintendo when it DOES happen. Just because it's not shoehorned into every game does not mean it doesn't happen. Administrative is a good idea if you don't find them enjoyable. Bit surprised to hear you didn't like Splatoon when I've heard nothing but good things about how it plays. Did you write up impressions? Really want to see what the issue was for you. -

Nice ignorant judgment of assuming what games I have and have not played. -

How are you going to continue with this site if you don't buy the materials needed to support it and/or are sick of their franchises? Also, Nintendo do online and sharing see Mario Kart 8, Pokémon, Splatoon and Miiverse to name just a few. -

You need to think about it...You need to think about where to put the Pokémon, which to start a chain with, how to continue the chain etc.

How is it an absurd argument? The argument is sound. It counts for those games because they're available on PC. It doesn't count for Nintendo games because they're not on the PC. I'm knocking those titles because those titles are available on the PC and run better on it. You're grasping at straws here. -

For one, Nintendo didn't dig into their pockets to make Wind Waker HD. They made that on a whim just because they were testing out styles for Zelda U. They also most certainly did not put it as their biggest release in that year. Where the hell are you pulling that from? Also, these remakes are shameless. They're just put out to fill holes. Yeah you could say Wind Waker HD is too, and I wouldn't fight you on it. You say it's to "elongate" the game. That's bull. Look at the major releases on XBO and PS4 in the second half of this year. Halo remakes. GTA remake. Last of Us Remake. If it wasn't for Destiny, it'd be catastrophic. Other titles are still cross gen, or like I said, better on PC. And you say "well of course they are, and Nintendo's would be too". How is that a comeback? Nintendo's games aren't. These games are. Ergo they're better on PC -

"Immense". Ok.. Tons of remakes and third party games that play better on PC is not my idea of a good lineup. We're kind of deviating from the point of this topic now, anyway -
Aren't most puzzles like that? Tetris, for example.

lolok. Sorry for pointing out the foibles in your beloved console. I won't do it again ^_^ Was just saying that they all make promises they don't keep. I wasn't trying to "justify" Nintendo's "failures". I was just stating a fact. -

No different to the others. Microsoft who backpedalled hard on their features which were horrific, but keep hinting that aspects can come back and Sony who also promised no droughts, and look at the PS4 now. I'm honestly surprised it's selling, considering its lineup from launch to the end of this year. They're all as bad as each other.
