That Guy Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Because I think most of you would. But, here's the thing...... HE HASN'T. : peace: Personally, I don't care about this kind of thing, but it does annoy me when people start saying "If this was Nintendo you wouldn't be bothered!" But Nintendo wouldn't say it. And that's the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pestneb Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 People who have a problem with those words are morons. If he meant those words to put down the Wii he is a moron. also to people who read those words negatively deep down think the Wii is crap. thats a fact. be it because you are insecure or truely don't enjoy the Wii, thats it. There is no tone in those words its all down to your interpretation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 What an asshole, as if the Wii is something the HD maniacs need to beat so they can go back to the narrow-minded sequel crapping industry it once was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mundi Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 What an asshole, as if the Wii is something the HD maniacs need to beat so they can go back to the narrow-minded sequel crapping industry it once was. So none of the big games on the Wii aren´t sequels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Yeah they are, but at least they have been given new thought at the very least to a limited extent. That's what we need, and not games that are the same all over again. Somehow I get an anti-creativity vibe from this fellow. He just seems so backwards.

Mundi Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 So for example is Metroid Prime 3 not a sequel to Metroid Prime 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 So for example is Metroid Prime 3 not a sequel to Metroid Prime 2? Did you read my post? It's a sequel, yeah, but at least they've had to put in new thought with the controls and it should give a new feeling to the game. I'm not against sequels (sorry for not making that 100% clear in my first post... ), but I'm against mindless sequels that don't alter a single bit of the gameplay of the previous games, which is what the industry was doing before Nintendo decided to change stuff. It's as if this Epic guy wants that mindless sequel era back so he doesn't have to think anymore and just pimp up his graphics engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mundi Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 And how long until all these new thoughts will be overused and new idea´s will be scarce? Maybe pretty long or short until. Even though the Wii-mote is a new way to play games dosen´t mean that everything that came before is mindless and boring (even tough some was) because some big wig in the console industry said so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raven_blade2006 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Well done to Epic Games, You Beat The Wii! That just goes to show they now view it with some sort of respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo is easily one of the worst offenders when it comes to mindless sequels that idiots will lap up. That's ironic thing about Nintendo fans complaining about EA Mario Bros - Mario Bros 2 - Mario Bros 3 - Mario World= basically the same game repackaged. Mario 64, Mario Sunshine and Mario Galaxy. Wheres the revolutionary difference? And don't even get me started on Zelda. Nintendo don't pimp up the graphics. They don't even do that, they just sell the exact same thing again and again. So come on, prove me wrong. The only difference between Epic and Nintendo is that Epic still creates games worth playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shino Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Yes, Nintendo hasn't got a new IP in years, for a software house its size thats a shame. But as a fan I can never deny its sequels, the only reason I stick with Nintendo. Although lately I've been having doubts about Nintendo's plans, I really don't like this casual game crap.

The3rdChildren Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 At the sake of beating a dead horse and sounding immature, I also beat the Wii. I'm glad the Epic guys agree it's nothing to be ashamed of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo has designed a machine that counters the problem. Even Nintendo nearly put me off gaming. I think your comparing of Epic's UT repackaging to Nintendo's top series is ridiculous.

Even Nintendo nearly put me off gaming. I think your comparing of Epic's UT repackaging to Nintendo's top series is ridiculous. you could argue that Nintendo with the Wii has attempted to change this tread,by introducing new ways of playing games, new controls etc... and franchises liked Project Hammer (not a great example) show they are ready to try and create new franchises, but there is no doubt Nintendo have given us sequel after sequel, I think they get away with it though because hardcore Nintendo fans want it, if we didn't get our Mario and Zelda game we would soon be complaining (even though people do still complain when they do arrive but that's another topic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Yeah that's basically what I wanted to say Quite frankly I doubt I would've gotten a new Nintendo console if it was a Cube 2; certainly not at launch anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats they way I feel as well, one of my major reasons for not intially getting a 360 yet..the wii offers so many new possibilites... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
