Re: Wii U Name Isn't To Blame For Poor Sales, Says Reggie

King47

I think it's the consumers' fault for not knowing that it's a new system. I mean with all the commercials and ads they better know the difference. It's not like the name is confusing or anything, right?

The name isn't the sole reason, but it does play a role.

Re: Say Hello To The Nintendo 2DS - A 3DS without 3D

King47

Why are people displeased with this?
Sure it looks bad, but the 3DS and 3DS XL still exist.
This will be another, cheaper option. I rarely use the 3D on my 3DS as most people. It makes sense since the 3D is an extra cost, of if they remove it and it's cost to make a lower price device.

Re: Talking Point: The Wonderful 101 Direct and Demo Set the Standard for Wii U Marketing

I think Nintendo should do their Directs this way. I know they like to remain secretive. But having one large Direct with so many announcements is great and all, but for a short period of time and then it's followed by a drought of news. I think they should spread them out like this.
I also agree with Thomas, my attitude towards this game up until yesterday was "meh" and now I am seriously interested in it.
Can anyone tell me about the demo? Was it any good?

Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Emphasizes That New Experiences, and a New Franchise, Are Keeping Him Busy

@Beta I am not insecure about myself, and I wouldn't use as game's rating to try and prove otherwise. I also dislike nudity and sex in games. I do like a games rated for everyone, I actually enjoy them more. But as a grown man I often want a game to be somewhat mature, I am talking about the themes in the game. Something like eternal darkness. I just want varity of games. With fire emblem almost cancelled and no f zero, metroid, star Fox, or advance wars we are pretty much going to have Mario in every game and zelda. I love those games but it is not enough. Also I
Also, I mentioned tern rating. And @jumpnshootman had a good point.

Re: Nintendo Denies Permission For a Live Stream of Super Smash Bros. Melee At EVO 2013

Well, considering how Nintendo puts no effort in advertising the Wii U or 3DS, it isn't very surprising that they would turn down free publicity. As @HaNks said, with the new game coming out, it makes less sense for them to do so.

I understand Nintendo wants to be protective over its franchises and rights, but I don't think they should shut the fan community to do so. I can't see any benefit from Nintendo in doing this.

My guess, however, is that EVO contacted Nintendo of America and they denied it because the person who works there might've not known what EVO is. They probably didn't study it thoroughly. But it's Nintendo we're talking about, they have been doing lots of, dare I say, stupid things lately.
