It's an FPS, just not competitive.
i'm not disappointed. I didn't think they'd have a Mario release this year. Zelda is a launch title despite all of the rumors from reliable outlets, march 3rd...I am disappointed that there aren't more details about how it works as a tablet. Disappointed there isn't any info on the power which means the rumors are probably true, I expected the rumors were underestimating it but at the same time ps3 level I always said would make me more than happy.

i'm disappointed that the presentation was lame as frick I'm disappointed there isn't another launch title that i'm just chomping at the bit to play but that was never a deal breaker.

however you describe it, it's not the same

FPS, I fricking hate them, and Metroid prime is one of my favorite gaming experiences ever. they don't just throw a bunch of bad guys at you and you run around and kill them, nor is the main hook or the only hook.

it's just different.



First Person Adventure. I think you're nitpicking to avoid labeling it something you hate, but whatever. You shoot a lot of shite in Metroid games. You explore and scan stuff, sure, but shooting is a BIG part of those games. But call it what you want.

Zelda and Mario will be amazing.
pretty much

But the way they are showing this and the games they are showing doesn't make me feel any better about it than I did with the Wii. Party game crap
I agree to an extent. some of these games are for babies and tablets are in the hands of babies who want to play baby games...it's only a red flag that they're showcasing it at a niche event.

online

I hate playing online. if I play a video game with a friend they should be sitting next to me and there should be shite talking. haven't had that experience in like 15 years.

pricing on accessories
eh, shite doesn't bother me.

Be unique in the games you offer
that's what kind of sucks. if you're going to showcase all that the joycon can do, but you don't have any games that were designed with that uniqueness in mind.

oh not at all, call it an FPS, that's technically true, but if you're trying to convey the experience accurately, FPS is misleading whether they hate FPS or like FPS. If you dig FPS, i'm not sure this is your game and you would feel mislead being sold a FPS game.

it's a big part, but it's not what makes the game challenging and it's not the only part of the game. exploring and figuring out what to do and where to go...it's so cool in that you uncover the story for yourself rather than being shown the story. it's a fricking unique game. and the platforming is near flawless which I've never played an FPS where I enjoyed platforming elements so much

I don't think FPS games are not good, I just don't like them for the frantic situations because dual analog just would never give me that level of control.

You get what you play for as far as pricing goes with consoles

That's fine, but this is something seems to want to do, but they don't know how to do it correctly. I mean, with Mario Maker, their most popular and successful U title, you couldn't just follow your friends to see what levels they were creating. You had to input that 16 digit code, and once you had played their stuff you could follow. What good is your friends list? Unless they eventually fixed it, it's something that you would ASSUME would be a basic functionality of the online experience but they have to do it their way.

of course it is, it's Zelda


So a little secret for everyone - I actually don't like Zelda that much... or Pokemon, or Metroid

Yet I have bought every single Nintendo console to date

I actually didn't - I just said I wasn't a fan

I actually played and beat every single Prime game on the days they came out on the Gamecube. I even came up with one of the more famous "scene skips" in Prime 2 and published it on GameFAQs back in the day...

I didn't buy GameCube because I was a senior in high school so I went with ps2 because at the time I'd never seen graphics like that

Otherwise I've owned every Nintendo console to date but was a late adopter on Wii and Wii U. The Wii U was just a replacemt for my broken Wii anyway. I'm hoping I can catch up on GameCube via the virtual console

Luigi's mansion, Mario sunshine, star fox adventures...these are games I would love to play and would essentially be new games for me

This Zelda seems to be one that if you don't really dig Zelda you may dig this one
