Also, they don’t really do proper adult games like Elden Ring. If you love Zelda I understand but it’s time to move on.
In the context of the first sentence, the second sentence seems to imply that Zelda isn’t for “proper adults”. Even if it wasn’t meant like that (I can’t see how else it can be meant), who is OP to tell people to “move on”.
Fair, my phrasing was probably too saucy there. Drunk post, my bad. I would still call myself a Zelda fan, even though the last one I played was Twilight Princess. It’s one of the all-time greatest series and the titles nearly always score 9/10 everywhere for a reason.
But I’m still going to say to “move on”. Not because of Zelda, no. There’s no real substitute. Rather, move on because Nintendo is scummy and doesn’t deserve your money when plenty of other publishers are making fun and creative games and working hard for it instead of suing their own customers.
That’s true. I wouldn’t expect someone to play games that aren’t fun to them.
But you’re not exactly helping the gaming industry improve if you’re regularly giving money to douchey companies rather than more open-minded publishers. I think it’s pretty simple to argue that you’re endorsing the scumbag behavior if you help finance it.
That’s a very good point. But they’re even more of a corporate behemoth now.
I was a Nintendo Power subscriber until the GameCube era, and I feel like they used to share a little bit of behind-the-scenes fun (e.g. making-of Donkey Kong Country VHS) and promote 3rd-party titles even on the magazine cover. But it seems like even that kind of stuff is long gone.
Red Steel was a release title, meant to showcase the Wii as a serious console for adults as well as a family friendly console for kids, but I’m pretty sure it, MadWorld, and No More Heroes were the only remotely gorey games for it.

My friend, there are lots of reasons not to like the litigious corporate monstrosity that Nintendo has become.

[edit: Added a line break for two separate thoughts. Sloppy writing remains for the sake of responses.]
“Proper adults” play whatever the fuck they like, including Zelda.
not proper adults, ops saying games catered towards adults

So you’re saying move on to the high seas? Yarr
What’s the GabeN quote? Piracy is a customer service problem? That seems applicable here.
I downvoted your rough draft but upvoted your final version.
Yes this was what I actually meant.

Nintendo has always been litigious. I don’t understand this myth that they used to be wholesome and friendly in the good old days.
They sued Atari for making NES games. They sued Galoob for making the Game Genie. They sued Blockbuster for renting their games.
Kirby the character is literally named after Nintendo’s lawyer John Kirby.
That’s a very good point. But they’re even more of a corporate behemoth now.

Shitty take.
minus that one comic book looking gorey slasher game for the wii
That was pretty fun, very clever too. They could spend more on the graphics because it was greyscale.
Red Steel or Mad World?
i think it was madworld, didnt know there were 2 games like that for the wii
