Super Smash Bros and Nintendo's Community Problem

Following a cease and desist for a Melee community tournament, it seems Nintendo will never truly "get" all their fans.

Meh. Smash is not just defined by the competitive scene. This isn't what makes it a great game.

Teflon021236d ago

People making excuses for Nintendo is the problem imo. There's no reason they need to be stopping tournaments. Just like how they control YouTubers that want to post Nintendo content.

gold_drake1236d ago

reviewers too, if you dont give them a score in a specific range, they blacklist you. not even kidding

@curtain
Totally explains all the high scores for nintendo now.

@curtain, sad that it's now completely okay to just make up stuff and pretend it's real.

Oh man... FZero. That is actually the only game I ever got sick off of. And Im not talking motion sick but full on seizure induced sick. It was so damn fast that my eyes just couldnt keep up and I found myself waking up in the hospital. Havent even tried to play it since, nearly 20 years ago. I can play wipeout, fast racing RMX, burnout... lots of other really fast racing games no problem. FZero really F'd me up that day.

Other cube games I never get tired of playing are mario kart dd, metroid prime, rogue leader and ikaruga

gold_drake571d ago

i agree with fzero. it was super fast lol. it gave me terrible headaches.

mark_loprototype571d ago

I wonder how alone I am in putting the REmake above Resident Evil 4.

_Decadent_Descent570d ago

I certainly expected Remake to make the list.

XxINFERNUSxX571d ago (Edited 571d ago )

Man, we need a Viewtiful Joe and Viewtiful Joe 2 remake, along with F-Zero GX, Metroid Prime 1,2,3, can't forget Eternal Darkness, damn that game was amazing, Baten Kaitos as well. Noticed I said remake not remaster, I would love them to be remade in a whole new engine brought up to at least 2022 standards.😊 Remade on Switch and ones that are 3rd party can go multi-platform.

rlow1571d ago (Edited 571d ago )

Honestly that console was up there in my top 3. So many good innovative games. Eternal Darkness was brilliant with the way it messed with you….aka your controller is disconnected… lol. Metroid, Zelda, Viewtiful Joe, and so many others. I miss playing them. Been thinking of buying a GameCube and jumping back into the nostalgia.

...and? Are they supposed to magically increase revenue or something?

FIELDMARSHALL_P658d ago

Isn't this posted at the beginning of the tournament. A website or flyer or something should tell people what the payout is. I'm not outraged lol.

franwex658d ago

I thought only winners got money.

Wrex369658d ago

I'm surprised he got anything.. 1st and runner up usually are the proceeds beneficiaries... People just fake outraging lol
