Re: Anniversary: Sonic the Hedgehog is Now 25 Years Old

It's a shame really but Sonic games are absolutely crap now! They've never really managed to make the transition from 2d the 3D gaming. Don't understand why they don't do what Nintendo have done with Mario and released some old 2d side scroller type games.

Re: Poll: The Wii U GamePad - Where Do You Stand on Nintendo's Hefty Controller?

Boxmonkey

A overly large controller that Nintendo themselves couldn't really be bothered to use properly! Nintendo land was a tech demo for what the controller could do and no only now have Nintendo stated to use its features with games like Splatoon and now starfox.
If the nx has a gimmick all I ask is for Nintendo to utilise that gimmick instead of ignoring it!!

Re: Reaction: Nintendo Titles Miss the UK Top 40 Once Again

Boxmonkey

Some massive generalisations get thrown about on Nintendo fan sites. The fact is games like GTA5, Bloodborne, the Witcher 3, the last of us, fallout 4 and many more are far superior to anything Nintendo turns out these days. Zelda u might compete with them but I highly doubt it!

For some reason Nintendo fans call these games all carbon copies of each other but they are far from it! My guess is that most of the people saying things like that haven't even played any of these games.

Re: Review: Devil's Third (Wii U)

Boxmonkey

Every other review site has posted a score and they are all terrible. I'm sure this site doesn't like to upset Nintendo by posting a low score so you delay until everyone else slams the game. Completely lame.

Re: Nintendo Seeks Improvement at E3 2016, Though Miyamoto Defends Near-Term Rather Than "Dream-Like Demonstrations"

Boxmonkey

Nintendo are so detached from reality these days it's a joke! How can they act like its natural to just show upcoming releases when Nintendo them selves have been showing games at previous e3's that are many years away from release. They didn't mind showing Zelda u two years ago when they wanted to sell a few Wii U's. I'm afraid to say that I don't think I'll ever buy another Nintendo product. At least until Iwata is gone anyway.

Re: ​Shigeru Miyamoto Defends Star Fox Zero's Controls

Boxmonkey

@Einherjar can the two not be linked? I didn't buy w101 after trying the demo because I hated the controls. I'm sure I'm not the only one, the same thing will happen with Star Fox. And I'm not exactly a casual gamer (Nintendo's target audience) I've just finished Bloodborne which has very tough controls.
