I don't know about this list, really... I love Prime, but Super Metroid is a game I've played so much and I enjoy so much. I couldn't possibly put it second. I mean, it's hard for me to even think of other Nintendo games I have loved as much. But it's ok, I like controversy best-of lists
I wouldn't have got this game if I hadn't read this. I liked the guy, and he did touch on 3 of my old school favorite franchises. I did played all 3 NES Ninja Gaiden games and beat all. 2 and 3 i finished back in the day, the first one I did it on the Wii using save states. That game is way too hard.
@kuromantic I did not discriminate, I merely described some of the things he posts about. "Sexually confused" and "man-child" could be considered insults, but I would let him marry a chibi shirless ripped male, I would bake their cake. But the man is further way from me in video game taste than my 13 year old niece. That's why I said: let him be. I mean, this was by far the best character intro in the history of smash.
The guy plays fashion designer on the DS, is always talking about wanting to see chibi shirless ripped men in video games. He is a weird sexually confused man child. Cut him some slack.
@Dogorilla nice going on that Internet Browser! BTW my top 10 most played isn't my top 10 favorite either, but it is a fun statistic. My no1 is fire Emblem Awakening for a looooooot and I don't consider ir my favourite game, however it got me thinking about getting FE Fates, since I clearly love playing strategy games.
This is where I've always felt a disconnect with Nintendo's handheld community. Of that entire list I only own Mario Kart 7 and 3D Land and Mario 2. I don't care much about Pokemon, I've never had any interest in Animal Crossing or Tomodachi Life. My top 10 most played 3DS games according to system data are: 1. Fire Emblem Awakening 2. A Link Between Worlds 3. Metroid Samus Returns 4. Tom Clancy's Ghost Protocol 5. Fire Emblem Echos 6. Ocarina of Time 7. Mario Kart 7 8. Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D 9. DKCR 10. Majora's Mask.
I'm glad DK is selling well. I'm obsessed wih it. I hope this means that a new DKC game may be on the horizon.
All around good news, but it does show that 2018 isn't Nintendo's best year in terms of software output. I've actually turned towards third parties in the last few months. Enjoying some Payday 2, LA Noire and Doom.
I think people are confusing: New entry, sequel and port.
So Majora's Mask was a sequel to Ocarina of Time. Just like Super Mario Galaxy 2 was a sequel to 1. But Twilight Princess was a new entry in the Zelda series, just like Super Mario Odyssey. But Twilight Princess HD was a port.
Having said that, I think that the new Smash could be placed somewhere between new entry and sequel, from what they've shown.
If I double dip it would be with this version and not the Switch one. Mostly for portability. I used to take my Switch out more, but now is more of a home console, even if I play in handheld mode, I still do it in the house for some reason.
I'm very excited about Fire Emblem Three Houses, but I felt they didn't show enough. I think they should try to show something from the next Pokemon game. We should have a better teaser from Metroid Prime 4 than just the title card from 2 years ago. And maybe show a couple of title cards for games further away on the horizon. A new F-Zero or whatever.
I appreciate Nintendo having it's own strategy as opposed to Sony or some developers that show games many years in advance, but they should also consider that many gamers are used to that, and get pumped for games that way.
In any case, I'm a happy Switch owner, and I'm currently going through Doom, with ocasional rounds of Fortnite. But I don't see myself buying any new Switch exclusive until Fire Emblem comes out.... I'm still on the fence about Smash, since I own and still play the Wii U game. So probably investors think that many gamers have a viewpoint similar to mine. Specially on a year that Sony is pumping out game of the year material like Spiderman, The Last of Us 2 and God of War.
I feel the drought. After Super Mario Odyssey there hasn't been a Nintendo First Party that has interested me. I would be one of those shareholders... I love Nintendo, but come on, announce some awesome stuff, even if it's 2 years away,
I'm getting Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus. Loved the first one on PS4 and loved Doom both on Switch and PS4, and since playing it on Switch I decided that this was the way to go with this kind of game. Aa good handheld FPS is a dream come true for me. Nintendo should try to do their own IP first person shooter.
@Hyrule like I said, Nintendo has always been my main console, I've been playing Nintendo consoles and games for 30 years. I do believe that this was a poor E3, and the fact that Nintendo's shares drop show that I'm not in the minority.
I'd like my favorite videogame company to succeed, but having a PS4 during what I believe to be Sony's most stellar year in a decade, has made me worried about Nintendo and has brought a lot of memories of the Wii U drought days which were awful.
@Hyrule not really, because I've always consider Nintendo my main console, since the NES days. I think we are allowed to have negative opinions about Nintendo on a Nintendo site. Don't you?
I haven't been the biggest Smash fan in recent years, and it makes me feel left out. I guess I'm in the minority, though, since Smash is one of the biggest brands.
The most exciting moment for me was Fire Emblem: Three Houses, definitely excited for that game.
It is kind of useless to argue in favour of something not happening. If the writer really thinks that it is not a good idea, he shouldn't buy it if and when it comes out. But no matter how well thought out or how well reasoned your opinion may be, the truth is that there is a market out there for this product and the line-up will be as good as it can be, and most of us would be interested in buying it.
This is great and it really blows my mind. Ever since Labo was announced, I haven't been interested. And I'm loving GOW.
However, I find the fighting fun, and I love that people habe different tastes. I don't think the guys at Sony are crying over this. GoW is selling fine and this are two very different markets.
This is a great fun tough game. However my new setup allows me to play my Switch and my Wii U with a simple push of a button. Yes, I am bragging. Play this if you have the courage.
And, contrary to what some our regular profesional complainers might say, this is a very polished game, with tight controls and beautiful visuals, so it does feel triple A.
Violence is in nature. Hiding it in art won't stop it.
I am from Venezuela. A country where a populist president banned violent video games. It did not change anything. It just made it a bit harder to find games.
Censorship amd prohibition have never stopped anything from happening.
Thank the videogame gods that the PS4 is having a stellar year. This direct was disappointing. Portfest for me: I already own Southpark on PS4, Dark Souls on PS4, Hyrule Warrios on both Wii U and N3DS, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker on Wii U.
Then you get the new games and this one looks average at best, Mario Tennis and Smash are not my favorites but I get that some people love them.
My biggest highlights: Luigi's Mansion 3DS and Octopath Traveler (for which I was already on board).

Re: Nintendo's Share Price Plummets In Response To E3 Direct
I have to say that my Switch, has been gathering dust next to my PS4. I like Smash, but I'm not crazy about it and I've never been into Pokémon. So this direct was a let down for me. Even Yoshi would've been great for me.
At least I'm still enjoying God of War, Monster Hunter World and I'm looking forward to the Last of Us 2 and Spiderman.
