If Nintendo went 3rd party, the world would be a better place

Would be nice so I wouldn't have to buy their consoles.

"Fanboys" in general are annoying and delusional. People bashing Sony/Microsoft and cosigning this console war rhetoric are delusional.

All those shouting Nintendo going 3rd party are annoying and delusional. Lets talk about the games without throwing jabs because this thread will just turn into a flame war.

I would personally love it if Nintendo went software only. Aint no way im buying a wii u.

naw i feel like we get the best benifits when publishers only have to deal with 1 console
MOST OF THE TIME

If they made a system comparable to the competition then I wouldn't hesitate to get a nintendo console. Loved the n64. Enjoyed the gamecube. wii was kinda decent but didn't play it after I was bored of playing wii sports. Don't care about the upgraded wii that they call wii u.

The thought process of Nintendo needing to make stronger hardware has me confused. Isn't it all about the games at the end of the day?

N64 and GameCube were both powerful systems and got outsold by Sony because their console had a more diverse library of games.

 

[shogun]

They also need to stop with the motion control remotes but that won't happen. Bring back regular controllers for all their games and that would get my attention.

I'm not a hardware specs person but software alone won't get me to buy a system. Needs to be a little bit of both. A nintendo console with great graphics and standard controls to play the big titles that are also available on other systems would get my money.

thats the thing though
motion controls are an OPTION
u dont HAVE to use motion controls
in mario kart 8 alone
u can either use motion controls
or the wii remote
or the game pad
or the pro/classic contoller
or the wii remote and nunchuk
u arent tied to motion controls
so when people give that excuse as to why they dont want a nintendo console
i just

 

[shogun]

That's good then. I haven't heard that it was an option. I looked on toysrus a few minutes ago and saw that they had regular controllers. I had no idea because I haven't cared about anything nintendo for years.

Interested in buying an Xbox one now that you're not strong armed into getting a kinect.

As far as Nintendo they always lead that pack in e3 (minus the last 2 years)

My wii u had mostly been collecting dust and I have about 6 games for it but it's hard playing Ninja Gaiden 3 when you beat it the first time and Super Mario 3D world didn't give me the same feeling I had when I played Super Mario Galaxy/ SMG 2 for the first time

....but then Mario Kart 8 dropped

Nintendo has the best console on the market right now and this e3 will solidify it.

What E3 is solidifying is that third party has abandoned the Wii-U.

This is the list of retail games that has been released so far this year in NA for the Wii-U.
View media item 1004863 View media item 1004864 View media item 1004865 View media item 1004866 View media item 1004867 View media item 1004868 View media item 1004869 View media item 1004870 View media item 1004871
Yes, Smash, Bayonetta, Hyrule and X are coming along with some new stuff at E3 but without third party, I can't see how the Wii-U is the best in the market and most people will agree.

E3 hasn't started and Last gen and current gen consoles are getting announcements left right and centre.

Not gonna get too much into it so I'll be vague, but Nintendo has been and always will be the leader in the video game industry. Going through their history is pointless so let's start when the real competitors came in. They literally laid down the blueprint for the PS1 and Sony just left and released it on their own and has been relying on waiting for Nintendo to innovate so they can  piggy back off them. The list of copies is endless.

Nintendo games wouldn't flourish on Sony or Microsoft consoles because those Consoles, while being technically superior to the Wii U never kept the gamer at mind during conception. Instead, they relied on profiting from media and advertising services, that wouldn't allow Nintendo to be innovative because the hardware itself isn't innovative. It's easy to say Nintendo should go 3rd party because the Wii U has been a dud so far but let's not forget their last console the Wii, sold more than PS3 and Xbox 360 COMBINED. Nintendo GETS it, Sony and Microsft only care about making a quick buck. If Nintendo leaves the hardware business, Sony and Microsoft would die out in about a decade and PC Gaming would take center stage because that's where the real innovation is today. Look at what's happening with the Kinect, MS tried to rely on the same gimmick again and completely failed. They don't know what to do because Nintendo hasn't blazed a new trail yet; the industry is panicking right now without being able to copy Nintendo. Nintendo games are innovative, unique and flat out the best games in the industry because they make their software and hardware hand in hand. I didn't even get into handheld gaming because it's not even fair to Sony.


Nintendo is bigger than Sony and they only mess with games. Not Sony's game division, the entire company; TV's, Movies, PC's.   


It always takes a new Nintendo console to be released to get the fans, including Sony and Microsoft excited about being innovate and taking chances again. 

• Nintendo hasn't always been the leader. PS1 and PS2 say hello.
• 
• Nintendo did not lay the blueprint down for Sony, they were meant to collaborate but that fell through.If Nintendo laid down the blueprint then why was the architecture so different. Nintendo stuck with cartridges and Sony went with CD. We all know which one the devs preferred.
• As for the PS2, what did it piggy back off? It released before the GameCube and went on to become the console with the highest selling hardware and software
• As for Nintendo innovating, they've copied just like everyone else and in fact has copied the most so lets not go on like they invent everything.
  https://sites.google.com/site/neotechni/Home/copies
• I will give credit where credit is due and no doubt Nintendo are innovators but you put them on a pedestal like they are so great while ignoring all of the bad choices they make with the Wii-U being the latest example.
• The XBOne did not keep the gamer at mind during conception but the PS4 definitely did. The design behind it meant that not only is it the most powerful, it's the easiest to develop for and it's cheaper than it's direct rival with a better ability of reducing cost in future.
• There's a reason why indies are flocking to the PS4 and why MS had to do a quick 180 degrees on their policies. This time last year it was TV TV Sports, now we have Phil Spencer talking about nothing but games because they've seen that it's what the gamers want and that's why the PS4 has been successful.
• The Wii has not sold more than the PS3 and 360. Both of them crossed the 80 million mark last year while the Wii is just over 100 million and it's sales stagnated at a much faster rate.
• Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo are all in the business to make money and trust me, all three are in it for the long haul. You don't form 15 studios to make a quick buck in Sony's case.
• If Nintendo were to leave the hardware business, Sony and MS will die out See PS2 graph above
• The inustry is panicking? Please show me how the industry is panicking and why hasn't Nintendo blazed a new trail. Wasn't the Wii-U out a year before the other two?
• Nintendo make great games but saying they make the best games is subjective. Mario, Zelda don't really do anything for me but Pokemon, Golden Sun and Advanced Wars does. Not everyone is a fan of Nintendo's flagship titles.
• As for handheld titles, it's not Sony you should be worried about, there's a much bigger fish in that department and it's only getting bigger. DS killed the PSP but even still the PSP sold over 80 million and established itself as a huge JRPG and Hunting game machine which made it very popular in Japan. As for the Vita, it never stood a chance and it wasn't because of the 3DS alone, smartphones did the bulk of the damage and the 3DS is also feeling the effects too.
• Nintendo isn't bigger than Sony

Sony themselves have admitted they needed Nintendo in the industry for them to be successful.

President of Sony Worldwide Studios Shuhei Yoshida has told IGN that his company needs Nintendo to thrive for the sake of the video game industry.

PlayStation 2 was awesome and sold a lot of consoles, but the Nintendo was able to make more money than them despite weaker GameCube sales. Nintendo makes the most money in the industry.

As for games, Indies are flocking to the Wii U as well and there is a lot of great content on the e-Shop. And you are 100% right that Sony is a bigger company than Nintendo... BUT Nintendo is valued higher than all of Sony at the moment.

Nintendo does lack some key third party support, but they make up for it with great exclusive titles. At the end of the day there will be many great games to be had on all the home consoles. No need to put another console down because it's not your preference.

Looks great but, what's the point of breaking bones if they could still use it....

Looks great but, what's the point of breaking bones if they could still use it....

For game play reasons. Imagine getting your leg broken in the first seconds of a few and you can't use kick moves anymore. 

Would be dope if they made a "Hard core" mode where that holds true though. It would be real tactical.

It's the equivalent of a super move in SF in this game

 

[offwhitewhite]

There's definitely gameplay mixed in that CGI trailer, that's really impressive.
