the gameboy advance and the ds were cool but I dislike the grand majority of nintendo's home console output.

I wonder the same thing but for Sega.

The Xbox was bad, but not as bad as the Gamecube.

I would rather play Halo online with my buddies than loving Double Dash or whatever actually.

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????

Jonas Albrecht posted:Naw. But what didn't you like about Double Dash? It's gimmicky bullshit. DoubleDonut posted:You actually literally do have to have experienced it for any amount of time to have an opinion on its quality, yeah So what is the point of pre-release media then?

DoubleDonut posted:Do you know what "advertising" is So you recognise that people are able to form opinions on things without first experiencing them, yet somehow this is invalid when that opinion is negative. Xavier434 posted:You do realize that is possible to choose not to spend your time doing something while simultaneously not passing judgement on it right? 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?

Jonas Albrecht posted: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. Well that's fine, so long as you don't call it "the best racing game ever made".

It's rather curious that the exact same people always show up to make one word poo poo posts whenever I disagree with commonly held perceptions.

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"

Jonas Albrecht posted:Quality 1st party games, dominance of the handheld market, strongest IPs in gaming. so "inertia"

# ¿ Mar 28, 2016 15:51 |

Jonas Albrecht posted:I don't think you can attribute any of that to inertia. you can definitely attribute the handheld dominance to inertia since they got an early lead so massive it's difficult to compete
|
# ¿ Mar 28, 2016 15:56 |

nintendo snowballed into a position of handheld dominance and by the time anyone else could compete handhelds as a platform stopped being profitable, it's kind of sad really.

Stux posted:actually handhelds are really interesting here as well bcos sony hosed up really badly. the PSP sold really well and put them in a great position but they went and released the vita next so rip. never mind tho cos as u said its a dead market anyway, and has shrunk by a ridiculous amount between the DS/PSP and 3ds/vita gens it's really hosed up that the vita is capable of actually emulating things and the PSN actually has sales and price drops and deals yet nintendo gets all the virtual console rights, time to go play all my favourite game gear games Bass Bottles posted:Hey are you an Stux gonna fuse to form Malachite we're good friends and neither of us would force the other into anything

I can play Metal Gear Solid and Symphony of the Night and Resident Evil 2 on my Vita exactly like they were 20~ years ago and the original 3ds couldn't emulate snes games lol

the SNES has the good shadowrun game and castlevania 4 (which I don't like nearly as much as Dracula X but w/e I understand that's a personal preference thing) and not much else.

Motto posted:Sony could've beat the 3DS after its initial stumble if they hadn't hosed the Vita even worse. isn't it saying something that literally the only company that tried to seriously compete with nintendo after the 90s is the one that released the juggernaut PS2?

# ¿ Mar 28, 2016 16:25 |

Aside from the memory card issue and the price of the games pretty much every criticism you can level against the Vita not having a breakout success you can also level against the 3DS

Didn't the 3DS also have horrible pricing problems

# ¿ Mar 28, 2016 16:36 |

Stux posted:yeah but they did actually cut the price, plus the inertia yeah that was sort of my point, they both had horrible horrible launches that mostly mirrored each other but the 3DS survived because Nintendo Is Handhelds and Sony doesn't get that luxury.

# ¿ Mar 28, 2016 16:38 |

The Vita has a bunch of really good, really interesting games but they're all new IPs so nobody wanted to buy them.
