Pretty much.No, it's still pretty petty. Funny as hell, even as a Mario fan myself, but petty.
I have Knack and don't have Mario and...this thread is all kinds of cringe.

the gif of Iwata leaping out of the coffin.
The irony is just so fucking strong that I just burst out laughing and keep waking my wife up. All those posts hyping up 3D World before release, the reviews, the posts with the gif of Iwata leaping out of the coffin. The pure assurance from the Nintendo loyal that the game would come out and kick all kinds of ass... Then it gets curb stomped by knack. And then all these gifs of Knack trolling. It's just too fucking much.

The game itself shits all over Knack, not even a comparison.The irony is just so fucking strong that I just burst out laughing and keep waking my wife up.

People are acting like this is the first time a worse game outsold a better one.
General consensus wins when you do so much as fail to provide a couple of any viable reasons as a counter-argument.I'd rather play Knack over 3D World any day... it's all up to personal preference, really.
You should put Cerny's face on Kenny.
3D Worlds sales are limits by the console it is on.

Knack outselling Mario in the UK isn't surprising.
They also preferred shitty Spectrum and Amiga games over the NES and SNES which had entire libraries of vastly superior games.
Nah I seen your edit.People are just trying to find ways to rationalize the weak PS4 lineup.
Nah I seen you edit.
This is the dumbest post ever made in the history of the internet.
Every group does...I particularly noticed this smug attitude from Nintendo fans that seem to imply they are the only fans of pure fun gaming experiences like they don't exist elsewhere, or how nintendos style of gaming with its extrnely kiddy star themed art styles could be off putting to some...but we all have our biases...just hope Sony takes knack and does something great with it, solid mechanics but definitely needs to be flushed out and lose the fixed camera
Nah I seen your edit.
Its like people are not alot to like a game.

No need to downplay Knack when essentially almost every major gaming publication/site already has and the game is barely averaging a 50 on review collection sites.Again, why the need to downplay Knack just because it outsold Mario? blame Nintendo for creating WiiU they way it is. blame Nintendo for confusing the world with the name. blame Nintendo for creating an overpriced weak system. blame Nintendo for living in 90's mentality and Technology.
Knack sold better than Mario because PS4 is better system than WiiU.
Congratulation Sony for the earth shattering launch of the PS4.
Again. Apples and oranges. While the expansions are exclusive maps, the base game is still the same. In fact in anything, it proves my point. Because Titanfall is essentally just a bunch of multiplayer map packs, there nothing Microsoft can do if respawn make a bunch of new ones and release on the PS4. Techically its a totally different game.
One thing is for sure. The Titanfall that releases at launch will never be played on PS4. Im just suggesting a year from launch, the Titanfall everyone is playing may so drastically different Microsofts exclusivity agreement might not mean much.

Knack is the kind of launch game that people buy because it's one of the few exclusives. People aren't buying PS4 for Knack, they're buying it for the hardware then getting Knack along with it because fuck it, everything else is either available on the previous generation or Killzone.Regardless , for players it seems like its a system seller unlike Mario . All these people buying knack bundles.
;p
Again, why the need to downplay Knack just because it outsold Mario?
I do find it a bit immature to brag about other consoles and games struggling with sales however. You would think that the people here who are ecstatic about this have never enjoyed a game or console that hasn't sold well before.
Maybe this has been posted already, but I literally laughed out loud with this. Recorded on Black Friday somewhere, a horde of people running straight past the Xbox One to get to the PS4s
The bashing of Nintendo fans on this thread is saddening and pathetic.
This is the dumbest post ever made in the history of the internet.
You know what, about that - I really wish more people would play Knack and Lego Marvel game (85% on metacritic) back to back and report what they think of them - both being kids games and all. I have played Marvel Lego demo last night and it was so boring, mindless, played out and by the numbers, that I can't imagine how horrifically worse Knack must be to score almost half as low on average, if Marvel lego is the kind of game that stands for 85% in the kids games genre. The thing is though, Knack doesn't look that bad or broken in any of the videos I've seen.No need to downplay Knack when essentially almost every major gaming publication/site already has and the game is barely averaging a 50 on review collection sites.
Aww I thought my post was.This is the dumbest post ever made in the history of the internet.

Nah, what's saddening and pathetic is how much those Nintendo fans emotionally invest in a corporation, to the point of public meltdowns and abusing others when they don't get their way.
Stuff like "the better game won" etc. Like polyh3dron's post. I agree that Knack is not shit, those posts are obviously immature. I don't think it was particularly good though. And 3D World was pretty objectively amazing, it's just sad to see such a good game having bad sales be celebrated. Of course it is mainly due to the disaster of a platform it was released on.
Edit: my mistake if he was trolling
To be fair, Sony and MS have the same type of crazies.Nah, what's saddening and pathetic is how much those Nintendo fans emotionally invest in a corporation, to the point of public meltdowns and abusing others when they don't get their way.
But why do you think it's a better game for kids? Just because it uses two kids friendly licensed properties? Because as a game itself it seems boring and provides no challenge, and from what I've seen, kids get bored with that kind of thing almost as quickly as the adults. In fact, in my experience kids are usually being vastly underestimated with how much they're willing to adapt and master the more difficult games. One of my friends' 6yo favourite games is Wipeout HD for example, and he pretty much celebrates the rare occasion when he ends up amongst the first three spots, but he never gives up playing it.I think Lego games are super boring but my friend's kids love them.
I have no doubt that Knack is the better game for adults. But for kids Lego is the better game, and adults have better games to play than Knack. Knack doesn't really serve any niche that other games don't serve better.
Reviews don't matter unless they backup my opinions.
I play games, not sales data. Yeah, the Wii U is definitely doomed, but at least it will die on a positive note.
This is the dumbest post ever made in the history of the internet.
And people say Nintendo fans are hypocrites. Were Sony fans any different during the PS3 era?
