This goddamn argument again...

WHY ON EARTH WOULD NINTENDO DO GAMES FOR PC OR OTHER CONSOLES?! THAT'S JUST STUPID.

You want Nintendo games? GET A FREAKING NINTENDO CONSOLE!

Don't come saying that you like their games but want them some other place. If Nintendo consoles are so beneath you because you don't dare to get "inferior" hardware..then you don't like Nintendo games.

Their software works because they have their own hardware. If they become third party they will become as generic as bland as sega, EA, Activision and countless other Souless third parties.

Mobile is a different issue because they are not making full games for them. And even so, their are doing much better with their consoles and games than on mobile.

But no, they keep spouting the same nonsense of wanting Nintendo games on other consoles.

Get a Nintendo console if you want them or GTFO

Re: Nintendo Is The Next Disney+, Says Activist Investor Which Now Has A $1.1 Billion Stake

This article is so full of it.

Why comparing Nintendo with STREAMING SERVICES?! Doesn't make any sense.

They also mention that Nintendo hasn't grown as much as EA or Activision....is like comparing Apple to Watermelons. Nintendo makes Hardware/Software. Ea and Activision doesn't for starters. Also Nintendo has improving in the last years. Didn't they check on that?

All it tells me is that these investors are just investing on Nintendo because of its recently momentum thanks to the Codvid pandemic making everybody staying at home. But they cannot even understand that. The comparisons they make are BS and like a way to explain their investment without knowing why.

Anyway, good for Nintendo. But I hope, really HOPE, that they don't listen to them.

Re: Fans And Analysts Ponder The Eternal Question: Can Nintendo Survive Without Shigeru Miyamoto?

DK-Fan

You guys know that, since Iwatta passed away, he is not in charge of Game developing anymore, right?

His position of "Creative Fellow" is just a symbolic position. He just advises and gives his point of view.

He is a venerable member of Nintendo. But in the last 10 years his way of working has become a hidrance and his arrogance started to show.

For example, not making a 2D Mario game, one of Nintendo IPs that sell hardware and is loved by gamers of all ages, just because HE DOESN'T LIKE TO MAKE THEM, is a show of arrogance.

Puting a moron that doesn't like nor understand nor cares about Zelda just because "he made dolls in college" is pure arrogance.

Making a mediocre Star Fox game with terrible controls just to prove that he was right about the Gamepad (proving that he wasn't in the way) and blaming the gamers for not liking is arrogance.

And by the way, saying customers didn't get it when one of his projects failed (Pikmin for example) is pure arrogance.

If anything, he should have retired a long time ago and let younger developers do their job. He is and always be respected but treating him like a God is not constructive in any way.

So yeah...Nintendo will be very fine without him. Maybe even better.

Re: Feature: It's Been Nearly Five Years, So Where In The World Is Pikmin 4?

DK-Fan

@PikPi Except that there were many other games on the Game Cube that sold a lot and even moved hardware. Pikmin has never moved hardware and even the Wii re-releases had modest sales.

The truth is, Pikmin is not a mainstream game that sells hardware which is the type of game Nintendo gives priority. Pikmin is only for N64Kids and nothing else. It's a niche game.

I think there will be a 4th part soon but it will take some time.
