I wonder whether smaller japanese devs that usually go handheld will eventually default to the NX in absence of a sony handheld or if they'll just let that market die and hope foreign PS4 sales make up for it.

Lady Naga posted:If the only time you're allowed to make a judgement call on media is by personally experiencing it firsthand for an arbitrary length of time then I hope you've never ever decided something wasn't worth your time. After all, how would you know unless you experienced it yourself???? You do realize that is possible to choose not to spend your time doing something while simultaneously not passing judgement on it right?

By the way, I can see it as an official Nintendo prototype in the vein of the PS3 controller I posted earlier but it will probably change a lot by the time of final product release. I guess Nintendo desperately wanted to move past the Wii U?

Your Dunkle Sans posted:I guess Nintendo desperately wanted to move past the Wii U? It's obvious that the Wii U is not making the company a lot of money so it is only natural that a business would want to change that, but beyond that simple fact no one knows. What we do know is that Nintendo does typically begin the first steps towards the creation of a new console quite early in the life cycle of their current console which is likely what happened with the NX. Nintendo claims that the reason they announced the NX early was to reassure consumers that they had not abandoned the console market just because they are getting into the mobile games market. I'd say that the real question cannot be answered until after the NX is released. That question is whether or not Nintendo has decided to rush the NX out of the door sooner than they would have if the Wii U was selling better. Personally, I hope that they did not choose to do this. Xavier434 fucked around with this message at 13:54 on Mar 28, 2016 |

Choosing to not spend your time on something is a judgemental act, you are saying that your time is worth more than whatever it is you're not doing. Jonas Albrecht posted:How so? Adding an extra character to your vehicle does not deepen or enhance the base experience of Mario Kart in any significant way, as evidenced by the fact that it was removed in the sequel. You (generic "you" here) realize that regardless of your own opinions on Mario Kart Colon Double Dash, "it's the best racing game ever made" is indefensible hyperbole, right? What would Mario Kart 8 be then? A disappointing followup?

I would disagree insofar as the two player co-op races were very fun. Letting my copilot handle items so I could focus on driving, and vice versa, made for a different kind of game than usual. And the two racer feature didn't hurt the game design at all. Double Dash has some of the best MK tracks ever.

Lady Naga posted:"Hey did you go see Batman V Superman" "nah the trailer made it look kind of stupid" "wtf you moron how could you say that without watching the whole thing???" I can say I have no interest in seeing a movie or playing a game because it LOOKS stupid but I can't say the game or movie IS stupid without playing the game or watching the movie. You can make a decision on how much you care to engage in something because of reviews and media and other bull poo poo but you can't form an opinion on it. "Hey did you go see Batman V Superman?" "no that movie was really bad" "wtf how could you say that without seeing the movie????" "oh you are right! maybe what I meant to say is that movie looks like it would be bad and therefore I am choosing not to see it but in reality I don't know if it is good or bad because I haven't seen it LOL I guess it was dumb of me to say I know something about it without watching it??"

CrashCat posted:actually it was a lot of fun and my family would play it together with the people who aren't good at driving controlling the items for a kart in co-op mode. but thanks for your sage analysis of this feature without playing it ever it was a poo poo game and the feature was the bumbest thing they did to mario kart which is ewhy they removed it instantly instead of hanging on to it like they have with the other gimmicks theyve added

My favourite Mario Kart is the second-worst selling one on the worst-selling console of its generation with the untenable gimmick this is the one that is "literally the best racing game"

I only vaguely remember the disadvantage but that was a big pro for my family mario kart as a regular game alreayd does this and the addition of the second character only relegates the "bad" players to a less fun position rather than just letting them play and blue shell u into oblivion
