SP2 is also getting called a dlc quite often.I have been enjoying Spider Man 2 but it is more of a DLC than Tears if the Kingdom is. I remember the accusations that TOTK is glorified DLC because it reuses the same map so what is Spider Man 2 then....I see the opposite being true.
If those things mattered so much the games wouldn't be selling 10s of millions of copies.Maybe if you're a pirate and run your Switch games on a high-end PC. Not so much if you gotta deal with shitty controllers that need repair every 6 months and ungodly load times for those ungodly Breath of the Wild textures. Also this is one of the best gaming years ever and outside of exclusives, Switch can't run any of the toprated games. If things like hardware didn't matter, then they might as well just keep making NES games lol.
This was an incredibly dumb take with TOTK and it's still an incredibly dumb take with Spidey 2 as well.I have been enjoying Spider Man 2 but it is more of a DLC than Tears if the Kingdom is.

It would have been dumb fifteen years ago, when games had a typical run time of 12-15 hours and what was shipped on the disc was what you got. These days, big open-world games run for 50+ hours in most cases, and post-launch patches that add ongoing improvements and extra modes like NG+.This was an incredibly dumb take with TOTK and it's still an incredibly dumb take with Spidey 2 as well.
Sounds like whining to me.Nintendo games are amazing, but they get a special treatment, there's no denying that.
Oh they 100% will.I’d like to think that everything you mention is intentional but I can’t help but wonder if it’s just Nintendo lagging behind the rest as usual (like they used to with paid online) and that they’ll catch up with all these crap practices next-next-gen or something.
That said, I’ll enjoy it while it lasts.
Call me old fashioned but you know what I like? I like a complete game that’s playable out of the box with zero micro-transactions. I feel like they are the bastion of the industry for this, and I can’t praise them enough.
From a Miyamoto interview:I agree completely. People just don't get that they are smart and have very talented teams.
Where Sony and MS spend millions $$$ on graphics Nintendo did genius move by quitting the race and make sure that it was easy to develop platform (because it's basically 1-2 gens below 'competition' and all tools are ready)
Seems like "juvenile" is the key word here, isn't it, big boy?What about them? The same juvenile platformer game sold for the five hundred times...?
I get it, Nintendo is not for you therefore "their games suck"- shit 10 year old hardware for premium price
- very low first party output counting on full priced re-releases of last gen games to fill their quotas
- shit online
They do release some 10/10 gens every now and then... ill give then that ... but doing competent bug free games with 10 year old tech is pretty easy ..... especially when you take 06 years between games on their premium franchises
All 3 have, I have a joycon and, XSX controller and a PC controller with drift, that shit never happened before.They've been willfully selling broken controllers for 6 years now, fuck them.
Well, that's how I like my re-releases, no "improvements" besides resolution and frame rate, I HATED what they did to WWHD because it ruined graphics in exterior areasYeah, those zero-effort ports like Skyward Sword that cost more than the original games from 15 years back and multiplayer games like Switch Sports and Mario Strikers that have less than 3 hours worth of content, lol.
They are doing lots of trash too if you look beyond the standout titles.
Top rated games are Nintendo games to, I play everything else on PC. And saying BOTW has loading times issues, wtf. Are you sure you played it? I've seen PS4/Xbone games with WAAAAAAAY worse streaming and loading implementations on PC, so I wouldn't imagine how they'd do on consoles...Maybe if you're a pirate and run your Switch games on a high-end PC. Not so much if you gotta deal with shitty controllers that need repair every 6 months and ungodly load times for those ungodly Breath of the Wild textures.

We get it, you really hate Nintendo being popular lolThere's more to this industry than Activision/Ubi/EA and Nintendo. Companies like Capcom, FROM, Sega, etc. still deliver very polished day1 games with great gameplay.
While Nintendo has more than enough anti-consumer practices going on, that they deserve all the shit they get. Not like they need to care anyway with their current profits. Makes it all the more weird to go all white knight for them, despite all the red flags beyond their occasional above average game. I'd get it if you're an investor. Otherwise, you kinda forget what side you're on, man.
You cant really blame them for getting there fair share of praise though, if mario was owned by sony or MS theres no way wed never get a game like wonder but its just just nintendo that get there fair share of praises, elden ring took the dark souls formula and made it work in a open game, god of war reboot did nothing new but reinvent the game to the point it wasnt alll hack n slash and got praised for, only difference is most game developers dont do this except for NintendoHard disagree. They’re incredibly good at making software and they’re constantly recognized for it. They get more than their fair share of praise.

If anything critics go too easy on Sony/Microsoft or are paid off. Anytime Nintendo comes out with a game a lot of people who don't play Nintendo games anyway put on their "Nintendo is doomed mask" and are sure that Nintendo will go bankrupt by next week.I have seen quite a few threads claiming that critics go too easy on Nintendo and don't review their games to the same standard as its competitors.
I think the opposite is true. I think we are too lenient on Microsoft and Sony. I have been playing the Series X and the PS5 solely for the last couple of months but I have just gone out and purchased Mario Wonder and it was like a slap to the face. Not does the game look really good, not just good for a switch game but good period. Not only that, but you can go and buy the game physically and without a single update and any installation you can just get straight to playing the the game in about 2 minutes on mobile hardware from 2015. When was the last you could do that. You could play this game in 30 years and it will be just as great as it doesn't need an update. One day we will be stuck with the Launch code of Forbidden West with all the bugs and the really bad performance mode.

Just no…TotK is a literal asset flip that took 6 years to make…If Spider-Man 2 is ‘more of a dlc’ then what the fuck is Mario Wonder? It reuses assets etc from the last 2D Mario, so dont try to gaslight.I have seen quite a few threads claiming that critics go too easy on Nintendo and don't review their games to the same standard as its competitors.

Making the best games in the business. They focus on gameplay over everything else. You know- these are the reasons WHY we PLAY GAMES FOR! I got Spiderman 2 and Mario Wonder same day last week on Friday. I've yet to touch Spiderman 2 cause Wonder is so fucking good. It is an actual video game that you play without having to go through a 2nd rate story to slog through.then list what nintendo does good?
Hardware? ( lul )
Online ? ( Lul x2 )
Community? ( Lul x3 )
Being a nice company? ( omega lul 3000 )
Jesus fucking christ! If that is all you think Nintendo did in Wonder to make the game as brilliant and innovative as it is, you really need to look a little harder. Fucking hell, some fanboys are crazy!Im sorry but anybody who disagrees is a moron, Nintendo always gets inflated scores because the base gameplay is ostensibly ‘good’ but Im sorry letting Mario change into a elephant now doesnt suddenly make the new game this perfect, revolutionary game. That low level of change, iteration, that safe entry to any other developer would be a 7/10.
