Actually they don't you stupid fuck, because the NPD does NOT include Nintendo digital game sales, but instead ONLY physical game sales. In fact, not a single video-game sales analysis group anywhere in the world includes Nintendo's digital sales! :redface:

Here you go, bitch....
Important to note: Media Create counts only retail sales, meaning digital sales are not included.

Aren't I supposed to be on your ignore list? :?

I love how when Candy Arse gets OWNED, his little puppet bitches come out of the woodwork and try and alter the reality of what's going on - to defend and protect their master. :lol:

Poor Candy Arse...you really made a fool of yourself! :redface:

First you go on and on about how there are 20 Mario Kart's (for some fucked up reason, you decide to include Mario Kart on the virtual console and arcade machines). :roll:

Then you proclaim how "THEY'RE INDIVIDUAL RELEASES AND THEIR SALES COUNT!!!!!", even though there's no video-game sales analysis group anywhere in the world that tracks Nintendo digital game sales. Oops, that would include the many "individual" Mario Kart games released on the virtual console. :roll:

Trolling aside, the fact that digital sales aren't included tells the real story. The only physical game I've bought in years is Zelda because Nintendo's online store is a clusterfuck.

Switch - 720p and reduced draw distance
PS4 - 1080p and full draw distance

According to Eurogamer, the Switch version is "compromised".

Paying more money for an inferior version :lol:
You are missing the point about why this minecraft is the best version of minecraft out there:


it is portable and it doesn't suck.

Currently it is the BEST portable version of minecraft (I think Vita used to hold that title) that exists on the market. Kids are going to want this as it lets you still play multiplayer splitscreen in portable form which is fucking amazing.

Like I said nobody gives a fuck what you think Candy. You hate Crackdown on xbox 360, you think Zelda BOTW is a 7 when games like Animal Crossing New Leaf are 9 in score, you worship EA which make generic shit, you are too poor to buy a Switch so you don't really matter to nintendo, and you pirate games. (in other words you are destroying your own platform whiich is the PC)

This is why you hide yourself because Microsoft is angry that you are not helping to promote thier games on nintendo systems. As consoles become more relevent to the normies who are sick of blue screen of death due to bugs in the operating systems that the CIA is using to spy on people, sales of Switch are going to rise because nintendo has the SEAL OF QUALITY which protects you from lazy programming which americans are known for.
In the future when cars are fully automated, and people crash into buildings and off bridges, microsoft is going to be to blame for all the bugs that cuased the machines to fail and kill people.

You need quality controls you dumb shit. And pc is too open and scary for the normies. Who wants pedophiles to be able to see through the cameras of their game platforms to perv at their children? Technology is deliberately made with backdoors for these hackers who work at these spy agencies who work for satanists. Nobody trusts open platforms. It means hackers can do whatever they fuck they want and cheat in games. Get this through your thick skull.
How many times does Zelda crash compared to all those other RPG games with open world. Zilch motherfucker. That's because of the Seal of Quality and this is why you can't stand nintendo because it steals the limelight from your beloved PC platform.

In the good old days when games like Half Life were the shit, maybe PC was relevent. But the peasant systems have all the great exclusives. We are winning and you hate the success of nintendo because it means you have to buy more hardware to play those triple A exclusives. In your mind you are not happy until EA buys nintendo and the mario series starts to suck like the sonic series just so you can laugh at nintendo fans. Will never happen. Sega is now mostly known for pc strategy games. bor-ring!

With the switch missing out on the next call of duty and now destiny 2 it seems to me the fire sales won't be far off candy. There's also talk of sony releasing something similar to the switch with them getting rights for an exclusive patent.

Candy:

Bwahahaha you're just worried that our raid on one of your underbosses mansions (Kim Dotcom) was sucessfull.

Japser's informants are very helpful tracking down you dirty PC pirates that are trying to kill nintendo. Stealing nintendo roms and uploading them and making money off their work so you can live the high life is probably the reasons nintendo has to release such underpowered machines instead of high powered machines. Dickhead. That why thier prices are so high. You guys are causing the death of the gaming industry. Not EB Games and second hand sales.
It's only a matter of time before the mastermind Candy Arse is found. (it's thanks to him games like Witcher 3 had to be aimed at console platforms because PC isn't profitable enough to create open world rpgs due to him seling pirated stuff which makes companies poor. We console gamers are the future)

Shit, should we all just hold out for Sony's next handheld instead? When Nintendo go 3rd party you'll be able to play their games on Sony's platforms anyway.

Why the fuck would ANYONE want to play downgraded versions of epic visual masterpiece games like Call of Duty or Destiny 2 on ANY home console, when you can pay LESS money to play the SUPERIOR versions of such games on PC at 4K and an uncapped frame-rate? :?

You're clearly confusing Nintendo fans with Xbox fans. :roll:

Us Nintendo fans purchase Nintendo gaming systems for EXCLUSIVE Nintendo franchise games including Super Mario, Animal Crossing, Donkey Kong, Paper Mario, F-Zero, Golden Sun, Fire Emblem, Kid Icarus, Kirby, Metroid, Pikmin, Wario, Pokemon, Xenoblade, Punch Out, Mario Kart, Star Fox, Super Smash Bros, Splatoon, Yoshi's Island, Pilotwings, Wave Race, Mario & Luigi RPG, Advance Wars...etc...etc

On the other hand, Xbox fans purchase Xbox gaming systems because they are fucked in the head and dumb enough to pay MORE money to play a shitload of PC ports with downgraded graphics, downgraded resolution, downgraded frame-rate, etc. :redface:

As for that old article you linked to...it's merely click-bait and the patent doesn't even resemble the Nintendo Switch (Sony's patent doesn't even appear to have removable controllers). It appears to be just another handheld, but the patent you linked to was filed BEFORE Sony came out and said they are bowing out of the handheld gaming industry (+ they have also confirmed they already stopped developing handheld games) .... :up:
During an appearance today at Europe's EGX gaming event, PlayStation executive Shuhei Yoshida made comments that suggest a successor to the PlayStation Vita may not be in the cards. Asked about a PlayStation Vita 2, Yoshida said the current video game climate is "not healthy" for such a platform to exist due in part to the rise in popularity of gaming on smartphones and tablets.
Quite frankly, who could blame them - considering Nintendo have now sold 65 MILLION 3DS UNITS whilst Sony have only managed to sell 15 MILLION VITA UNITS. :cry:

Didn't the PSP outsell the 3DS?

Can't wait for Sonys next ground breaking handheld. Detachable controllers? I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

This whole idea that something that is new and revolutionary is another thing that shits me off.

Zelda BOTW goes back to basics again just like the games I remember from the 1980s when you had to figure stuff out for yourself by playing the game and not because the GPS markers told you where to go like in a game of Simon Says.

I think it is time we older gemers explained to the younger people that sometimes things that are older are in fact superior to the new things if you put aside the point about technology being improved.

In today's films for instance people are sick of CG effects over the practical effects mostly due to the sense of realism that practical efects still give. Now just because digital FX are newer and "more revolutionary" doesn't necessarily mean "it's better".

There are certain things about older movies which were made on tighter budgets that still count as better pieces of art that cannot be recreated whether due to the original creators losing skills or the expectations being lower when you have much more money to play around with meaning that you can be lazier.

Case in point Mad Max 2 vs Fury Road. Although Fury Road is the better overall movie in terms of the volume of cool action in the entire film, MM2 condenses the action into smaller space and gives more meaningful action which serves to tell a more dramatic story than Fury Road which to me has very typical hollywood feel to it compared to MM2 which is grounded in more realism and feels less like a popcorn flick compared to the more CG-happy Fury Road.
The same logic cna be applied to gaming: older games did things better than newer ones simply because it may not have been expected that a formula had to be followed and creator could just do what they felt like and put more crativity in the project rather than please a particular group of people that expect a certain thing. (the "bigger, better, more" crowd)

Switch may not be revolutionary but it does what people actually want and gives that to them. If sony copies this nobody will care because as nintendo fans know, it's the software that drives them to buy it. The next Zelda is what justifies the purchase. It's the quality condensed into a smaller space. (The other machines would beat it in the technical department but creatively they will inevitably have stale content because they only do what fans say they want rather than doing what they think would be good ie no personality) This is why people are getting sick of the open world genre. They like the open world games that made them feel something, but companies that make them now only do so because they think that's the big trend, not realising you have to have interesting lore and world and setting for us to give a shit about running around in it. But on top of that, you don't make it a game about doing busy work crap but instead you make it about experiences. (think back to all the cool things in halo 1 that you did on replays that demonstrated flexible playstyle choice which reward a bit of experimentation - that's what today's blockbuster games are missing! They feel like rigid Simon Says games with no soul. Because new games think the STORY should drive the GAMEPLAY and not the other way around. (story exists as the background to your actions. eg killing major characters means a shift in the way the world looks at you, and you experience different gameplay due to the consequences of the actions you took. It's not hard scripted CG cutscene but just the way that people organically react to the things you do that makes it a game first and story second)

Old shit is sometimes better than the new shit. And that's why Zelda BOTW (which goes back to the days when games were still games not stories with minigames in between cutscenes) gets 10 and Mad MAx 2 is STILL better than Fury Road if you put aside the volume of stuff you get in the latter flick that makes it more valuable due to how much you see, (it's bigger so there is more to show)

When I play old games like Ghosts n Goblins and compare them to today's indie games, I can see the appeal the indie games have for people who still long for deep gameplay that is challenging. Yes they may look like shit compared to triple A stuff with superior technology, but there is only so much replayability in triple A shit before you get bored to death. Perhaps that is a lesson for these other guys who are probably thinking of making a Zelda BOTW clone as we speak to capitalise on old school gameplay again with no markers and hand holding stuff. Perhaps sega will make a Sonic Adventure game in the style of open world Zelda BOTW game? It would actually make sense because the bandages on sonic's body actually have a use where you can patch up wounds from falls you have off cliffs and stuff.. (sonic buys springs, glues that shit to his feet and uses the descenet to jump back up to get the hidden item at the top of the tree which he can use to sharpen his spikes to do more damage and impale tougher enemies who drop money to upgrade his shoes to run faster. Sega desperately need to copy nintendo again imo)

Re: LEAKED! UBISOFT IS DEVELOPING MARIO RPG FOR NINTENDO SWI

Post by Jasper »

There was a rumour from all the way back mid last year that Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle was being developed, and everything about the rumour has just now been proven correct. :shock:

Details are still a little sketchy, but what we do know is that one of Ubisoft's prominent development teams is developing the RPG game using Ubisoft's Snowdrop Engine (same engine used to develop Tom Clancy's The Division).

The game is scheduled for an official reveal at E3 and is also scheduled to be released this year. :)

Also the person who leaked this game is the same exact person who has confirmed that Michel Ancel is developing Beyond Good and Evil 2, and that the game is exclusive to the Nintendo Switch. Beyond Good and Evil 2 is also expected to be revealed at E3 this year. :D

Michel Ancel had also previously hinted that BG&E2 was in the works...
