Nintendo Hasn't Forgotten the HardcoreHey Whiners! Nintendo Hasn't Forgotten You!
| Quote: | | "The gaming enthusiast that buys a tremendous amount of games is truly insatiable. As an example, in March, we launched Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In April, we launched Mario Kart. In later April, we launched Wii Fit. Then, in July, at E3, they say, 'where are the games?' They say they want the next Mario game. Super Mario Galaxy isn't even a year old yet." -- Reggie Fils-Aime, NOA President |
Guess what? I totally agree with him (if you leave out Wii Fit). Look, we're all annoyed that Disaster: Day of Crisis hasn't been announced for North America yet, but just stop and think for a minute. The Wii came out November 2006. We're coming up on the closure of it's second year and look at what we've already got.
If we ignore third party titles, look how many first-party Nintendo games you have already. Remember how long it took to get this amount of games out for Nintendo 64? How about GameCube? All developers have software droughts, but none of them (especially Nintendo) usually get this many games out before it hits. Things are not bad. They haven't forgotten you, so stop complaining.
That right there is a good haul, but that's not even the entire list of first party releases thus far. Odds are some of these franchises are going to get a double dip this generation for the first time in a long while. Miyamoto himself already said he would like to do a sequel to Super Mario Galaxy. We already know Kid Icarus, Punch Out!, and Pikmin 3 are likely coming in 2009, and there are probably some things we don't know about. All of those titles are pure fan service. They wouldn't be making them if you hadn't already demanded them. The DS is far from done, and nobody knows what it's future lineup will be like, and the DSi online store opens up another avenue for new experiences. There's a lot to look forward to folks, and you're getting it at over twice the speed we've gotten in the past at the highest quality Nintendo games have ever been. To all the whiners: stop complaining and count your blessings for once. You've got a lot to be thankful for.

True, but nintendo has to tnink hard for the next best game. I guess nintendo use up all their good ideas in the past, originally is their game.
Maybe.....

Well, what they need to do is bring back old ideas from the past and use them for the current gaming generation. Wario Land: Shake it! is a perfect example of this.

How about bringing back the old Tetris gamplay just with better graphics and alot more extra features?
That would not be difficult at all for the company.
