I’ll admit I was scared for a moment, but the tests came back negative, or, er, positive – they’re fine!
I’m not a Nintendo fan. I’m not even a console user. But after reading Clare McDonald’s piece last week about the future of Mario and his ilk, I got weirdly nostalgic and uncharacteristically worried.
The new Nintendo-focused emulator for the iPhone is now available with support for several classic systems.
Won't belong before Nintendo bangs on Apple's door to have the emu removed. Like I say you take down one six more take it's place. Problem is people are putting emu's on such stupid platforms. The good emus are the ones not on stupid platforms like a red target. The good emu's are word of mouth and keep a low profile.
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."
Nintendo has announced a new Indie World showcase for tomorrow, and it'll feature around 20 minutes of info about upcoming Switch indies.
Still waiting on a proper direct. I can't think of anything coming out this year for switch.
Something that worries me about Nintendo is that they've not been seen as a strong games company for awhile now despite when you look behind the scenes and see the DSI and DS dominating the portable market. DS/I games are a huge market and it's easy to overlook that when consoles take the spotlight most of the time.
Really hoping that this view will drop because eventually this perception will help it come a reality. People need to be confident in Nintendo as they make amazing games and deserve the support.
One simple thing to get Nintendo back on track. GAMES. That should be their #1 priority. Games > Features and online capabilities > Hardware power. I say Nintendo should put out 3 good games to stop this "NINTENDO IS DOOMED" BS.
I'm a Playstation guy but I believe they could do better because of Nintendo's potential.
they need new 1st party ips imo. they really do...I love my mario,zelda,starfox but they are getting stale...I dont mean spin offs like Luigi this or mario kart that ....I nees fresh new stuff...they are milking the current ips dry
one thing you have to remember with the games industry it is so huge financially that even a "big" drop still leaves companies with huge profits. As in the past great 1st party titles for wii u will bring good profits for nintendo.
Companies in this industry come and go, one of the main constants has been Nintendo. Anyone who immediately counts them out need a history lesson, for those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.(I think that's the correct quote)
