3DS Tribe: "By and large the games look great, and from what’s been played, they’re certainly challenging. However, given Nintendo’s move in the last few years towards more casual forms of play and making games more accessible to the expanded audience, are we set for more of the same on the 3DS?"
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Hanzla from eXputer inquires: "If Xbox can care about preserving its games and legacy, what exactly is wrong with Nintendo, trying to kill game preservation single-handedly?"
Ahh yes the good old game preservation of saving all your games to a removable hhd on the Xbox 360, taking it round your mates house, setting up multiple tvs to
Be met with “save data corrupted, please re download”
Or how about removing 360 games
From the store
, download them now or else, and, better hope to god that save data doesn’t corrupt, or it’s lost for ever
Nice one ☝️
This is just a scammy PR move to distract from the fact they are going digital only and trying to push streaming and subscriptions only.
No gaming company has pushed harder to remove ownership than Microsoft.
Without discs there is no preservation, preservation can't be done by the rights holders it can only be done by the consumers, anything else is a lie.
Nobody wants this. Sales or the lack of it in the case of XBOX is very telling. I wonder how the adorably all digital series X will fare. Adorably dismal perhaps?
Only time will tell, but for from someone like me suspecting that Xbox is trying to gracefully exit the console market, that "forward compatibility" team is trying to get Xbox games playing on Windows PCs. I mean, it's nice that they're not planning on exiting with a "enjoy your games while the hardware still works" message, so that's nice. They still have a brand to protect via Microsoft so probably feel obligated to have a better exit strategy.
Danish from eXputer: "Nintendo has historically gone against player-made content and emulation of its games. This has done much to harm the company's image."
They need to stop announcing these mods and fan remakes until they're finished. Finish it, upload it, and then if Nintendo dmca's it tough shit. Once it's online, people can share it around, even if the original download gets taken down.
This is all coming from the mouth of short-sighted fandom and grifting madness.
No.... it wont. There is a clear defined reason why they don't. This is nothing new. Make your own shi7 from your own original ideas especially if you are trying to capitalize of it it. Duh.
Yeah, hire people that have zero respect or understanding for an established process. Wow. Yep. Totally makes sense.
i wouldn't say dumbing down that would imply they are toning down the games themselves which isn't the case
whats with these stupid articles? THE ds had more hardcore games than I could count
the wii had a ton of hardcore games too
is devil survivor overclock casual? will any advance wars or fire emblems games be? is zelda? is mario? is resident evil?
come on now. I know alot of these article creators are grasping at straws to try and discredit the 3ds and give false reasons why it will fail but..........lets get real
From what I played of it at the event, I would disagree. Mercenaries was just as difficult as it is on PS3/360. And it wasn't just RE, a lot of games I played were challenging.
They are just more accessible.
to be honest, games these days are easy. people think donkey kong country returns is hard, which it isn't. its easy. hell, i died more in dkc2 than dkcr. so games are easy these days. touch control/combos, i think is a great idea. i tried for so long to pull off akuma's ultra but never did. as for doa, you can just as well mash buttons.
i don't mind these features, "hardcore" gamers, can ignore touch help commands.
