Gamers say they want more mature titles on the Wii and DS, but are they overlooking another major element of gaming that the hardcore crave? http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ This blog speaks the truth. M-rated games are not needed to have a great time. I personally like games filled with story and great gameplay. And yes, developers need to stop making minigame collections. No one likes them, and waste of money. http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/#comment_718652 http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ Tue, 14 Aug 2007 06:01:42 GMT nice article. http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/#comment_719191 http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ Tue, 14 Aug 2007 11:22:53 GMT Well fetal is right this blog does speak the truth. I mean mini games are fun every now and then but all gamers want a more in dept experience at some point or another. I know will see that on the wii. And i bet they want have a M tatted on the case of the game either. http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/#comment_719931 http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ Tue, 14 Aug 2007 18:42:32 GMT Very true, Wii just don't want M-rated games, Wii want games with ore depth than just mini-games compilations like Wario Ware. Those games aren't bad at all, but come on Nintendo bring us more titles like Zelda and Metroid, and keep Mario coming but don'r rely on that franchise only. http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/#comment_721741 http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ Wed, 15 Aug 2007 19:18:09 GMT I think what Wii needs is a game like Conker's Bad Fur Day. Why? Many different reasons. First off, the game was a departure from previous titles featuring cartoon characters, in that Conker was originally a character featured in kids games (marketed to a young audience). The original idea for Conker's BFD was going to be a similar platform game for the N64 until Rare decided to stop being a p*ssy and created a sick, twisted, controversial game instead. This once loveable, sweet, wholesome squirrel now had a completely different, badass attitude. Instead of a cute animated squirrel what you got was violence, profanity, alcoholism, and scatological humor. And the result was one hell of a game. The story was great: Cute cartoon squirrel gets drunk and wanders off in a drunken stupor trying to get home to his hot girlfriend. Instead of getting sex, he winds up in a series of strange drunken escapades. The game sold well, and if it hadn't been for the fact that the game debuted at the very end of the N64's hayday it would have sold even better. Til' this day, I still consider Conker to be one of the best games for the N64, up there with the original Smash Brothers and Goldeneye. If the Wii had a kickass game like Conker's (using the motion control of the Wiimote for weapons/grenades/magic spells/etc.) I think we'd have the next best selling game on the Wii. Unfortunately, Conker is now property of Microsoft since acquiring Rare. But a similar game could be created for Nintendo using different characters (either new characters or ones from existing franchises). http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/#comment_1438217 http://www.games.net/blog/32533/mature-games-the-nintendo-dilemma/ Sun, 11 May 2008 14:50:54 GMT
