Nintendo has ruled, and shall continue to rule.

"Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has said on numerous occasions that the video game industry has started to alienate fans by developing games that are too complex and too heavily dependent on graphics."

Nintendo was here before Playstation, xbox, so it must continue

too complex? that's where i disagree. the gamecube is my favorite of the modern console systems (and the gbasp is my favorite of the modern systems period), but i find the lack of more mature and complex games quite annoying. nintendo is the best of the modern game system companies, yes... but i wonder if that'll change when the psp comes out.

Bull. You find good games with crap graphics, bad games with great graphics, good games that are to easy, crap games that are to hard.
Metal Gear 2 (both versions) - Main game was to short. VR missions in substance make up for that.

Commandos 2 - men of courage: Quite hard, but that's a good thing. It's one of my current games now.

Yes Commandos is a fun game, if you can actually take the time get good at it. Otherwise I can see how people think it's boring/frusterating.

"mature and complex" games are boring

that's why nintendo is the best. you got the CRAZY RETARDED games that are big fun, and nothing but.

also after owning one for a lot of years i've discovered that the ps2 is pretty damn gay.

I've been really disappointed with the game selection for Gamecube, like ever since I got one. Nintendo have really lost their reputation in the school yard, to the point where it's embarrassing to admit I have one. =(

what, like wind waker? i found that game to be a pretty big disappointment. actually, there are problems with many of nintendo's main franchises (or whatever word should be used). for example, we haven't seen a true donkey kong game since dk64, which blew the big one.

Just wondering, what are your thoughts on Eternal Darkness, Knightt?

576 · Post by **576** » Wed Feb 11, 2004 6:08 pm

the only game cube game i would consider getting is Skies of Arcadia- Legends, as the SOA fansite (planetdreamcast.com/soaworld) says SOAL was SOL with 3 times as much bonus stuff (doc quests, 100 more discoverys [a discovery was a hidden thing, that you found on the world map when flying the air-ships])

Sonic heros looks cool.

Melee is the only reason why I bought a GameCube

I still don't own a console more advanced than my snes. Any knowledge of current console games comes from playing my friends' systems.
