Nintendo is a video game company

They used to make these

Then they made this

and then they made this

and now they make this

They make a lot of really good games

These are representations of some of them

And we can talk about a lot of them

For now, though

    Speaking of feeling good about Nintendo

    Today they had a B2G1 at GameStop, and four of the six games I grabbed were Twilight Princess, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Kirby's Epic Yarn and Bowser's Inside Story

    Pretty Nintendo-centric haul

    Okay guys

    Mario Brothers 3 or Super Mario World?

    I sort of never stopped feeling good about Nintendo.

    Although I had to convince myself that Sega was better when the 16 bit family system ended up being The Genesis.

    Super Mario World

    My old answer used to be Super Mario Bros. 3, but going back to the original three Mario games recently, there's a stiffness to the physics that I don't like and can't get past

    Super Mario World still feels completely amazing

  • UrielUriel Registered User regular
    I've never actually gotten very far in Super Mario World.

    Was... was it ever NOT okay to feel good about Nintendo? Because I've felt good about Nintendo pretty much constantly since I got my first Game Boy in... 1994, I think?

    Super Mario World is better

    but not by much

    honestly, if it wasn't for the better controls, I'd go with SM3 in a heartbeat

    Some of the earliest clear memories I have are playing Super Mario World with my parents when I was 3 or so.

    So yeah, SMW is best.

    2013 was when Fire Emblem Awakening came out.

    So, no. That year was pretty good too.

    2013 was the ramp up to the absolute killer that was this year

    I really should play my WiiU

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    I got my (new) Wii U about a month and a half ago and I think I may have used it every single day since

    My PS4 has been collecting dust, and I used to use THAT every day

    I basically unlocked everything in Mario Kart, I finished Super Mario U, and I own The Wonderful 101 (which I played a little and enjoyed) and ZombiU which I have not played yet.

    Oh yeah, I have Wind Waker HD also for the WiiU.

    I really want to get Smash Bros for it.

  • MarathonMarathon Registered User regular
    My boys got so many figures for Disney Infinity this Christmas. Which is fine because they look cool. I think we have all the Guardians of the Galaxy now.

  • Macro9Macro9 Registered User regular
    I got my niece Hyrule Warriors as one of her Christmas gifts and we've been tearing it up since. She's happy to be able to play as some kickass female characters. She's been kicking my butt at MK8 lately too. Little nerd is growing up fast on me lol.

    I reaaaaallly can't wait for the new Zelda. I need it in my veins like yesterday.

    I'm willing to place the blame on one specific person like literally everyone else involved in that game did. Team Ninja gets a lot of shit but they were just doing grunt work.

    An actual Team ninja Metroid would have been something to see. Metroid has all the big setpeices and monsters they're known for. It's a pity.

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

    We had a bunch of people over tonight and played Smash. The eighth player mode is chaotic in the most delightful way. So far I really love Pacman.

    Rayman Legends is not a Nintendo game

    But I understand some (weirdos) think it's better on the Wii U

  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    Anyways, here is the E3 trailer for Yoshi's Woolly World

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vR8EHatIIE

    I played Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island earlier this year, and while I thought the art style was just flat-out bad (and hate the inclusion of Baby Mario anywhere, in anything), I thought the egg-throwing gameplay was pretty novel

    So taking that and putting it in the yarn style from Kirby's Epic Yarn and suddenly I find myself greatly looking forward to a Yoshi game, something I would have previously thought not possible

    So yeah

    Nintendo's doing pretty alright right now

  • Mr. GMr. G Registered User regular
    I just want to have every 2015 game now

    Gimme Splatoon and Codename STEAM and Starfox and Zelda and aaaaaaaagh

    6F32U1X.png
  • UnbreakableVowUnbreakableVow Registered User regular
    See, while I thought 2014 Nintendo was stellar, 2015 isn't doing much for me really

    Just Yoshi and Zelda, really

    But it's Nintendo, and as per their style with announcing things, I bet we'll get some wonderful announcements in the early part of the year that will release during the holiday season

    Fingers crossed for a new proper Mario

    Majora's Mask is the game that may finally push me to get a 3DS

    maaaybe.

    The fact that I've beaten it like a half dozen times on the Wii alone is a sign of something, I think.
