Seems like one of the few bad eggs we get. I love Kickstarter and we get lots of good stuff, I'll never stop backing even if a flood of deceivers saturate it, I always use discernment before I back and it has worked out every time thus far. This is kind of sad though because I want a real spiritual successor to F-Zero...

So we finally get the F-Zero game we've all been asking for and Reddit has to go and ruin our chances by complaining on Nintendo's behalf about a placeholder ship that's modeled after the Blue Falcon?

Did that really just happen? Jesus. Real shame too, the gameplay footage looked amazing.

I'm not too sure how this will work out when we've already got Fast Racing Neo coming, but we'll see how things go...

Nintendo,wake up and smell the coffee. Time for a new F-Zero

They'd be wise to save it for the NX like Zelda U possibly.

TheColbertinator3241d ago

Anywhere is fine. WiiU,3DS,NX anything is fine. I just want the games (F-Zero,Fire Emblem,Sin and Punishment,Mother,Metroid,Xeno blade,Zelda,Pikmin) regardless of what box you need

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
