Why does he say there was no Autumn holiday Christmas game last year when Prime 4 came in December? It cost a shitload of time and money to make and they tried somewhat. A bad game is still a Game

I know it’s a Switch 1 game but every Nintendo fan acts like those are Switch 2 exclusive games anyway.

Same thing with Xbox, they come out with a bunch of games but if they’re bad, people act like they don’t exist. No one says “Xbox games are Bad,” they say No Games.

I don't know why you'd expect it to be good

Good Games come when a Firm's back is against the fuckin' wall and they need to execute or die. OOT's 32MB Cartridge probably cost Nintendo $30 to manufacture not counting the cost of developing the actual game but they couldn't skimp on that shit. that was a big Cartridge for 1998 considering where Moore's law was. 4x the size of Super Mario 64 iirc. I don't even think they made money developing that game given the Opportunity Cost of developing it. they could've made like 5 mediocre $60 8 MB games instead of 1 good 32MB one.

BOTW came when their back was against the wall. they started winning the gen and then all we could get after 6 years was TOTK which was The Same

if a CEO tries to execute and be a man of action and roll up his sleeves when things are good people are like "what a joke," nobody listens, and as a result the guy loses credibility and Fails and is Ruined. it's impossible. you need a pearl harbor event to get people to actually do shit properly. and Nintendo needed to fail for 15 years straight, No Games 2002-2016, I know eternal darkness, sure, but it sold like 300k copies or something lmao.

Indies need Curators and you and I both know that the people curating cannot be trusted. they'll bring shit to the forefront that provides representation to Marginalized Voices or something

also people expect indies to fail and it's nbd, the creator puts it on his resume and keeps eating ramen. Nintendo fails and shareholders lose BILLIONS and the emperor isn't having it.

I mean they legit don’t even have a release calendar. Pokemon in 2027. Why is it taking so long? Bc fans bitch when they half ass the graphics.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is their upcoming 2026 game lol

The Mario Galaxy re release sold 5 million. Did you play those games? All the way through? Both of them? Finish your backlog before you ask for new shit…

I mean they put a million Engineering hours into Metroid. Don’t act like they gave you nothing when it’s a loss leader. They could’ve just closed Retro Studios in 2019 and released Nothing and have been better off. Fanboys should just buy it and put it on their shelf and not play it, if only to lessen the blow… don’t make Nintendo regret throwing westerners a bone.

at least PS4 was basically cutting edge contemporaneously. Switch 2 is basically a PS4 Pro or something but it's 2026 and not like 13 years ago or whatever. maybe closer to a regular PS4 in some ways but can play 4k (docked). PS4 getting basically every single game except counter strike was fine, and Bloodborne and Uncharted were icing on the cake. Switch 2 is stuck getting Worse Versions of shit. it's just not the same thing unless you really, really value playing On the Go.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 came out 15.875 years ago. there are kids Driving Around rn who the game is older than. it's perfectly fine for them to be re-releasing this Wii shit, especially with the movie coming out. also it doesn't require the gay wii mote making it more accessible and Normal now. this is a better business move and requires No Work. super mario galaxy 1/2 is a new motherfucking game to gen alpha and gen beta. it also has a couple of unique things going for it:

1. galaxy 1/2 don't require constant use of 2 analog sticks. this is second nature to halo bros and western FPS RPG bros and Loser writ large but Women and gay guys find it challenging af. when I give a 3D game to my Woman she doesn't use the right analog stick continuously. she stops moving, stands still, and moves the camera when it's absolutely necessary. lots of Women and Low Losers (pokemon players) and gay guys/trannies are like this probably

2. it has linear design without being a low-rent Joke like 3D World. this allows it to avoid the collectathon bs.

3. also there's a Film coming out atm iirc

4. whether it's in your backlog or not, YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED BOTH GAMES. VERY FEW HAVE.

that's bullshit. the only difference in frame rate you have to worry about is when buying UK releases, of which there are quite a few in 4K now. UK/BBC shows like Sherlock and Night Manager are shot for the PAL standard there which is 25 fps. When they are encoded for the US market they have to slightly slow everything down and pitch correct the audio. You can tell just by listening to the soundtrack on its own and comparing it to the US audio track. the only way to get it how it was meant to be seen is if you buy the Region B version which won't play on most US devices.

I'm not a Low Loser fanboy either. but these games actually exist. the games you want kind of already exist. Galaxy 2 is said to be better than odyssey according to the few who've played it.

if they made a new 3D mario it would look The Same as these. btw. it wouldn't be like "wow, how Revolutionary, what a Console!" - it'd be The Same.... maybe Worse even.

guess what. you haven't played 3D World either. very few have. very, very few. discuss.
