Doom and doom eternal, red dead redemption, borderlands, Bayonetta 3, mortal Kombat, my friend Pedro, devil may cry, resident evil to name a few. All Nintendo needs is a new system with more power and Sony and Xbox will be eating their dist for another generation. The next Mario cart will outsell both consoles biggest exclusives combined.

They have violent games, I think some people get on them because of there triple A in-house developed games: Mario, Kirby, Zelda etc...also They always make there game consoles under powered when compared to Sony and Microsoft for some reason. But hey, why should they stop. Most of there consoles and software make them a ton of money to a fault.

Meh. I'll buy one at the end of its cycle. Unless the Zelda games are up to my expectations. And they revive old I.Ps

The fact its called "Super Nintendo" world is kinda of the problem.

That was the last time Nintendo actually was the big deal in Gaming. Anybody who got a nintendo system instead of the competition after that ended up severely disappointed. I remember when all the kids who got the N64 early came to school and slowly realized the shit they got was much worse than the playstation. It was like a look of general sadness that slowly grew into disgust when the Gamecube came out with those stupid ass small discs. Nintendo is pretty much Sega except with more money and a better QA department.

Nintendo is a known quality at this point. You are going to get:

1.A system that is inferior in term of hardware.
2.The same Kart racing game you have been playing for 15 years with maybe a new power up or character.
3.The same melee game you have been playing for 20 years.
4.The EXACT same Animal Crossing game you played on the old system.
5.Abysmal third party support
6.Cute "new" idea that is probably fun for 20 minutes or so....you'll pay 60 bucks for what effectively would be a mini-game in GTA5.

^^All the above was good in 1994, when your only competition was a dead Atari company and Sega fighting with Sega of America. It doesnt fly today. I remember being at a fucking high school programming camp at Georgia tech 20 years when Halo 2 came out and telling professors there that Nintendo will never make another thing that can compete with Halo 1, much less this new one. People laughed at me and said I was bullshitting, but the proof is in the pudding 20 years later. Nintendo is still profiting off of a system that came out in 1991, and they HAVE to because there is no nostalgia cycle for fucking Pikmin, and that was probably the best thing on the gamecube. Nobody has fond memories of spending 70 bucks on a cartridge in 1998 for Garbage like castlevania where you played a school girl running around with a school bus and chainsaw wielding skeletons. It was ass.

The switch has done well by being introduced years after the other in its generation, and during a nice economic boom.

Truth!

Nintendo is a big deal. They always held around the number 2-4 spot in video game consoles for years.

Nintendo has never really focused on raw power and graphics. They use their huge library of exclusives and games that usually have good gameplay and design. To make up for the lack of graphical power and poor online play. Plus it keeps the cost of their system down by using slightly outdated tech to power their systems.

Genesis>>>>

First system I bought with my own bread.

 

[slowmotion]

Same here. The main thing I wanted was to play was Madden Football and Lakers vs Celtics. Neither was on Nintendo back then and both were game changers for the time. I remember hearing people talk about an ambulance carrying away hurt players and thinking it was the coolest shit..lol. Didn't have youtube back then, so unless you knew someone that had a system. All you could do is wait to see and experience it for yourself.

Man, I remember when i had a choice between a Super Nintendo or Genesis when I was a kid and as soon as I started playing both consoles I immediately had so much regret. Remember when Mortal Kombat came out and the NES version didn’t show any blood and censored some of the violent finishing moves? lol man I was so pissed I think a year or 2 into having that NES I saved up all my birthday and Christmas monies to buy a Genesis.

The Switch is still hanging on though pretty much solely because you can go anywhere with it.

They don't have violent games? News to me.

The GameCube was the last console they made for gamers. They had a contract with Capcom to make a 5 titles exclusive for them. Viewtiful Joe, Resident Evil 4, P.N.3, Dead Phoenix, and Killer 7. They also had Eternal Darkness and Metal Gear Soild remakes Twin Snakes.
