They are the SAME game. They are both Resident Evil. You want me to use the EXACT SAME GAME? Alright, I have more fun playing Call of Duty 3 on the Wii because of the experience I get with the Wii controls as opposed to Call of Duty 3 on 360.

I don't understand why people want apple to acquire Nintendo

I want my quality nintendo games on non shoddy hardware.

By this logic, all mario games are the same. All pokemon games are the same. All zelda games are the same.

Yeah no.

Was that so hard?

Controls. Yay. I bet though if you had the Wii controls on the 360 you would have enjoyed it more.
_{look mum i can TALK IN CAPS too!}

Mega Man 9 and 'Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth' say Hi. I had more fun with MM9 than most of the games i've played this generation. I like my Mega in 8-bit and that's that. No HD flashy block buster state of the art hollywoodized graphics need apply' here. Besides all of the MM games look great artisticly for being 8-bit and they've held up wonderfully. I really don't care about having all of this horse power, of course i want to see the Wii U deliver with the graphical goods....Being a bit more powerful than the PS3 is fine by me. i'm more interested in the unique ways that the GamePad's screen are used and the fact that Nintendo games are finally going to be in HD/true widescreen which is a pretty exciting jump alone for nintendo gamers.

What's the point of having a retro game using realistic graphics?

There is a reason they call them retro.

I got the same enjoyment playing Mario 1-3 on NES and All Stars.

Nintendo's entire business model rests in gaming, right? And on top of that, a good 50 per cent of Nintendo's business lies in it providing hardware, which other games developers use to sell content, providing Nintendo with licensing fees, yes?

Right. Which devices that play games are currently winning a few million customer's dollars, taking money away from the competition? Which devices are the ones that just about every independent and major studio are diverting major resources to cover therefore taking money away from "traditional" game R&D. Here's a hint for you: it starts with "i" and doesn't include "tendo."

A healthy business is one that, if it's not the market leader, is keeping up with the market leader in terms of customer acquisition. And by that measure none of the "big three" are healthy businesses.

I actually feel that the 16-bit visuals 'in' All Stars stars ruin the feel of the originals. I think what bothered me about the All-Star versions is that they reused
SFX from Super Mario World where as the original 8-bitters' had their own distinct and authentic sounds which made them all stand out and feel completely special from one another instead of the borrowing bs All Stars did.

Pancakes are taking business away from Nintendo too.

@WaveBoy: Well the All Stars Versions are what Nintendo had in mind when developing the game. The only thing I think was inferior was the music, ecept the new Bowser themes. Same game though... besides the brick physic from Mario 1 and Lost Levels.

I like how retro gamers get all hardcore about the "graphics don't matter, man" line, but in reality graphics matter more to them than virtuall anyone. Pixel graphics are still graphics. Why, it can even be done deliberately to make a game look like an old-school game!

Mega Man 9 was such a laughable example of hiding a modern game behind pixels graphics that I continue to be amazed that anyone fell for it.

Pancakes are food goods, and therefore not considered consumer discretionary (or luxury) spend. They're considered a necessity. Completely different product category to Nintendo, and therefore irrelevant and not competition.

If you're going to be sarcastic and argue economics, then learn something about economics first.

Don't fall for the troll-food I laid out.

Nice save. When you got nothing, claim you was "just trollin'".

Still chewing on that pancake...

What comes after Wii U? Nintendo Core (I will give details later).

A chewy pancake? You cooked that one wrong.

Does every argument on Nintendolife have to be about something besides the main topic? This is getting ridiculous.

Welcome to the internet.

I know for some reason fourms tend tk discourage getting off topic but why. Isnt any successful and productive conversation one that evloves. It started about next next gen nintendo, people interjected there thoughts on nintendo getting aquired,, and now the conversation has moved to how well nintendos bussiness model is in the long run.

Hard work for mods though.
