You see, Nintendo is arguably the most criticized video game hardware and software maker in the world. It’s also, arguably, the most successful. With any sort of success, criticism is sure to follow. That being said, Zelda Informer is here to talk about the 10 gaming opinions that really set Nintendo fans off.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
***You see, Nintendo is arguably the most criticized video game hardware and software maker in the world.***
It's also the most heavily praised...
A lot of those points made I've never really heard. And, most of them, really aren't as common as ones for 360 (RRoD, shooter console, pay to play, etc.) and PS3 (unsecure, blu-ray player, linear exclusives, etc.).
Bad list is bad.
if you're a gamer then there can be absolutely no reason to hate nintendo because without them the videogame business would most likely not exist...and without nintendo any innovation, controllers, systems..etc would not exist...without nintendo any franchises that motivated people to keep videogames in mind would not exist.....and they have put together a great new system call the wiiu so instead of hating go buy it and give it a chance..they got all third parties on board.....of course if you're a childish hater and dont know the history of videogames and talk about processing numbers while having no idea what they mean except you like pretty pictures...then you will hate nintendo all day.....but wiiu will win next gen guarantee
