For some reason this is trending again, so for all of you who haven't seen this gem of a commercial from Australia in the 1980s, Merry Christmas!
Switch 2 announcement when!?
Literally just had the same reaction hahaNever seen this lol. Holy shit.
Yamauchi was absolutely fucking based while also making Bobby Kotick look like a little school boy in comparison.

We used to have some weird game commercials.
That's might not be true, as we see, nintendo deploys tactic in which disney used back then. The parents affect their children to play nintendo as well, and regeneration cycle is repeated many times already in these decades. That's might be how pokemon grows as biggest franchise since few years ago.I don't need to. Practically the whole fanbase is past the halfway point in their life. Many on their last legs. Once half of them perish, tablets will replace them for good unless they actually innovate instead of gimmick selling for once in their existance.

Tell that to F-Zero fans.I feel like Nintendo is the only company not chasing Gaas.
I feel they’re just not as explicit/vocal in defining what a game is and isn’t compared to other publishers.I feel like Nintendo is the only company not chasing Gaas.

Surely Splatoon, Mario Kart, Smash Bros. etc. fall under GAAS? They get small amounts of continuous content, both paid and not, for years to keep people playing.
I guess maybe they’re not chasing the trend by trying to make all their games GAAS or something like that though, but still.
Bingo.. Always-on like junk will disappear and die leaving no trace at some point. Only some will survive via fan made servers like you see with old MMOs etc.The thing with all of those is that should the servers go offline for whatever reason, they'd still be great games to play.
For all of them, there is an adequate amount of single player content/playability, and they all have local multiplayer.
I just hopped back online with PSO:BB earlier this week. The old grind is as great as ever.Bingo.. Always-on like junk will disappear and die leaving no trace at some point. Only some will survive via fan made servers like you see with old MMOs etc.
Nintendo is the last of the three you can accuse of having old fanbases. They are the only ones willing to market to children. They are also in handhelds, which are where all flatscreen gaming going to end up once we reached "good enough" graphics. Yes, there are less children over time, but they are still being born and parents are still willing to trust Nintendo. Toy makers make toys, and everyone need toys.I don't need to.

Just looked it up - that's awesome. Player run shards for this kind of stuff are awesome, I still play Ultima Online free shards myself! I might have to check out this PSO server at some point!I just hopped back online with PSO:BB earlier this week. The old grind is as great as ever.
