Nintendo IPs are fantastic, their hardware is laughable. It's just a god drat shame both things are tied to each other.


Gotten more use out of that money than anyone will from the NES mini.


Because cartridges are still more expensive to produce than discs by a lot and really offers no benefit other than portability. It's Nintendo trying to be different for the sake of being different.

Other that portability

handheld system

Yeah so like...I love Nintendo to death and they are part of the design for my first tattoo but let's not act like they are godly. The n64 was a dumb bad controller, the wii u was really stupid even though some games were cool it was overall very poor and clearly showed that Nintendo had no idea what hey wanted with the tablet.

*off tv play is great!*
*for some games*
*not the good ones sorry changed our mind*

It was v bad and I hope the NX is marketed and planned for much better

Neither does the Wii U, hahaha. Not so sure if the NX will follow the 3DS or Wii U in this regard.

The 3DS is only alive because Monster Hunter eventually came to it, it was tanking at release.

Uhhh monhun is a phenomenal series but idk about singlehandedly saving a console

Splatoon needs it's second screen for coordinating which teammate you'll jump towards or where you want to set up an Inkstrike. There's no way it could be played with a normal controller when the GamePad is being used with it to its fullest capacity.

I mean..there's about 1000 different ways they could've just used the main screen for maps/jumps/strikes and acting like there isn't is really dumb.

It's really not that hard for a game to pull up a quick map and you click which point you wanna go to all within maybe 2 seconds. Splatoon is a phenomenal game and the controls own. Gyro movement owns. Don't act like maps haven't been done for a long time though.

Oh no don't get me wrong I don't think he should step down from his position, just when I look at his contributions over the wii u lifespan I am not encouraged that he should have huge impact on games. Small suggestions, sure, but large impact no thank you.
