you can always make a shadow topic so that it shows up in both
 
This and the Peter Moore thread have officially made the past hour the funniest 60 minutes of 'interneting' that I have ever experienced.
 
I'd say you guys should have more respect for Nintendo employees and not slander thier images like this.

But, hey.. knock yourselves out. :rolleyes
 
Lol! Is that Koji Kondo in the Ghostbusters pic?

Edit: Whoops, it's Shiggy. I couldn't tell cause of the short hair. :P

If it's any consolation - when I saw the first few I felt kinda shitty about it being the biggest DS circle jerk yet,
but when it picked up speed, I figured it was all just a bit of fun.

I don't care enough about anything to be a zealot. Just killin' some time.
And these kinda things seal the deal so that the next time Sony pwn Nintendo with
something, it'll get nice and ugly real fast.
 
Yeah, it's now a fun thread. Before, it was just a zealots ds circle jerk.

It's like they're paying everyone back for the years where Gamecube bombed for everything.

GC bombed and Xbox was a success. :)

I don't think anyone is paying anyone back, dude. Don't take this stuff personally. :lol
 
What can you possibly do against such behavior. And who cares about Japanese numbers. I mean do any of us live in japan? know japanese people? have japanese relatives? A scant few, me included.

It isnt even about the games anymore. Sure Nintendo fans will kid themselves, and rationalize playing another barely changed Mario Kart or the equally boring COME VISIT ME Animal Crossing, because its about tradition. Its about 'their side' and in reality when they spout their game shit, their innovate crap, its not even remotely CLOSE to what could keep so many people with Nintendo after the N64 and Gamecube, because its certainly not rational.

Its called Brand Loyalty, and Nintendo has it in the handheld arena. While Sony rules consoles by quite simply being a pounder, such loyalty has allowed Nintendo to exist by offering a different gameplay experience, a bad one at that, and their fans eating it up as innovation or 'good gameplay'.

You can throw numbers and charts and the names of several japanese game people I dont even know about, but what it comes down to is knowing why you play the system you play. I play EVERYTHING but the Nintendo DS, I even play the SP (and hell, owned both an N64 and Gamecube), and there is something in that I think.

I expect either silence, or the standard SHUT UP MAF U R A BAD TROLL THESE DAYS.

Kinda like the barely different GTAs, GTs, DMCs, Maddens, and such, right? ;)

quetz67? Is that you?

Seriously, trying to claim that the DS's success is only a result of it being the next handheld from the handheld market leader is missing most of the point. Japanese sales have never been this high. Combine that with the fact that Japanese sales in general have been declining steadily and significantly over most of the last decade, and you have a huge statistical anomaly that can only signify new video game players joining the market that weren't into video games two years ago. Also, considering that the Revolution is attempting to do the same thing and that Nintendo has been steadily losing market share since the NES, and you get "the great hope" for Nintendo fans. i.e. The Revolution/DS combo could see to Nintendo's continued success (and continued game output) for many years to come.

Coming from the previous standpoint of "PSP will take Nintendo's last safe haven (handheld sales) away and assure the end of Nintendo games," and you get near-euphoric joy/relief. The resulting celebration (which is what most of this thread is) should then be expected.

Not really.

It was cute seeing such a large serious post from you about games though.

What is in it? Other people are playing their DS and having a great time. You aren't. What is to be said? I haven't played my PS2 for a few months, but it doesn't mean there aren't great games for it. A lot of people enjoy the Katamari Damacy games, but I personally found them to be a steam pile of dog shipballs. It doesn't mean I am going to go into KD threads and start talking about how I don't like it, or say because I don't like it "there is something in that." The fact is that a lot of people enjoy, just in the same manner that DS titles have been selling better and getting better reviews than their PSP competitors.

Coming from the guy who secretly wishes Nintendo was hitting rockbuttom but does everything to avoid letting his true intentions out in the open. At least Dark1x and others are true when it comes to how they feel about Nintendo. Don't kid yourself most of us can see right through you :lol
