Re: Switch Could Enjoy An Extended Lifespan And Even Outsell The Nintendo Wii, Claim Analysts

SammytheSaiyan

This makes sense because there is a new Switch model coming out with better processing power, the Switch is more capable than the Wii (and thus more accessible to 3rd party developers), and Nintendo's home console and portable markets are no longer divided. Plus the gaming market as a whole is much bigger than it was a decade ago. More people are interested in the Switch and what Nintendo uniquely has to offer

Re: Buy Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD And Sega Might Remake The Original Games

SammytheSaiyan

I got it on eShop yesterday because it was discounted. I'm liking it so far! I never owned it on the Wii and from what I understand this version is superior. I hope Sega realizes there is still a market for Monkey Ball. Though the game producer's statement may come off as greedy, I think he just meant that they put a lot of resources into remaking Banana Blitz and it would help the future of SMB if people bought the Banana Blitz remake. I think that reasoning is fair but he could've worded that better.
EDIT: Actually I misunderstood the game producer's quote because of the way the article paraphrased it, upon closer inspection I don't see a problem with the way he worded that.

Re: Review: Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (Wii U eShop / Super Nintendo)

To be honest, I'm surprised this game was re-released. I have no idea why the DKC titles were removed from the Wii Shop Channel at this point. I figured it had something to do with Rare now being property of Microsoft, but then this occurs, and I literally have no clue. Either way, the DKC trilogy is still property of Nintendo. Oh well, this game is a classic, and it's nice that the new generation can experience it now.

Re: Sony: PS4 Is "Welcoming Back" Wii Owners Who Skipped PS3 And 360 Last Gen

"Yeah, Wii owners should totally upgrade to the PS4!"

Or, you know, they could just upgrade to the Wii U, the Wii's successor. Honestly, I think Sony is still jealous of the Wii's success last generation. The PS4 does not appeal to a Wii owner, coming from someone who actually owned the Wii last generation. The Wii U appeals to Wii owners, NOT the PS4. There's no logic in saying it's the other way around.

Re: Video: Hands-On With Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker On Wii U

SammytheSaiyan

Finally! Seven years after his debut, Captain Toad is getting his own game! I don't care what people have to say about this game, it's a massive improvement over the SM3DW Captain Toad stages. It looks much more immersive, and it definitely has the potential to be its own standalone game. I shall be picking this up at around Christmastime.

Re: Reaction: Mario Kart 8 Accused Of Poor Sales Potential, Ruining Battle Mode And Racism

SammytheSaiyan

"The other notable omission is in the cast of characters’ diversity. After 30 years there are still zero Mario characters of color, a problem that Mario Kart 8 highlights by lining up all the characters on a single screen. When it comes to human characters, Mario Kart 8 is overwhelmingly white. Of the 29 drivers, 14 are human (including Toad and Toadette), and every single one of them is white. While it’d be atypical of Nintendo to introduce new characters into a Mario Kart game, it’s also where the deficit is the most obvious, and during play I found myself disappointed that Nintendo’s stable of characters so painfully fails to reflect the diversity of its audience."

Ugh... please tell me these people are joking. Is it me, or are people literally going out of their way to make Nintendo sound bad nowadays? First off, why would Nintendo create new characters for a Mario Kart title just to avoid being considered "racist"? All human Mario characters aren't white because Nintendo's racist. What kind of an assumption is this?! Plus, one could consider Metal Mario and Pink Gold Peach colored, am I not correct? Also, Toad and Toadette are NOT human! Shows how little they know.
