The lack of a second analogue control has me baffled. What is with you Nintendo?

I'm more baffled the shed load of make-up caked on Reggie's face.

People have been asking for the 3dsXL since the 3ds came out and now they are giving it to them they are crying because it doesnt have a second circle pad. Only like 10 out of like 100 games uses the two circle pads' so it would have been a waste to even add it.

@EcoSos3:
People were expecting the 3DSXL as soon as the 3DS was announced just like they were expecting it to have a second analog because Nintendo's gone to the trouble to make the extension in the first place. Now they have to make a new one for this just announced system, or drop it meaning there was no point in making the add-on, much less the few games for it, in the first place. Or any future games.

It just shows asinine thinking.

10 Video Game Sequels That Saved Their Franchise

Video game sequels like Assassin's Creed Origins, Doom (2016), and Fire Emblem Awakening were just what these franchises needed to be revitalized.

Lmao what’s Halo Infinite doing on this list?

Who would ever say Halo Infinite saved the Halo franchise

SullysCigar356d ago

Thought the same - very bizarre!

RE7 though... my God, what a shift over RE6! That franchise was definitely going in the wrong direction, so RE7 was a welcome return to form.

ModsDoBetter356d ago

Resi 6 was and still is the worst entry in the series.
7 was a great turnaround, despite people’s concerned about the switch to FP perspective.

DMC5 definitely helped the franchise after the whole DmC debacle. Whilst it was a decent action game, it was a far cry from the series and the characters we knew.

AC Origins is my favourite in the entire AC series. Despite the switch to a more RPG style of gameplay - the setting, soundtrack, length, etc were all amazing. sadly followed up by the ridiculously long and “more of the same” Odsyssey.

I don’t feel it’s fair to say the franchise slipped with Doom 3, Doom 3 was incredibly atmospheric and took the game in a different direction but there’s no denying Doom (2016) was sensational.

Halo 4 & 5 were disappointing but Halo Infinite definitely didn’t save the franchise? What?

TheEnigma313356d ago (Edited 356d ago )

I'm going to have to go with SMB 3. I was around when SMB 2 first came out and people hated it. 3 is still arguably the best mario game created.

HellspawnPR1981356d ago

"Halo Infinite"? Worse Halo ever. Whoever made this list just lost all credibility.

Hofstaderman356d ago

In future lists of a similar nature I have a suspicion Final Fantasy XVI will feature.
