 | Nintendo Ok, how many Mario, Metroid, Zelda and Donkey Kong games GC oweners have to play? Nintendo needs to take a hint, besides, I have been playing games for 25 years, from arcades to the atari 2600, so, its just the same thing over and over with better graphics. The gameplay for games now is less challenging than 15 years ago. Now its more like watching a movie for 3 hours and actually playing for 1 hour with newer games. Remember the old days when you had 3 or 5 lives and only one or two continues to beat the game? Sure, you could use some Game Genie codes to give you an edge, but that was about it. 2 people could play a game for hours or even days before beating it. I would say about 80% of the games for all consoles are 1 player which suck. Not to mention that the console wars and the title manufactures are actually killing the Arcade scene. How? Well, now its more cheaper to make a million PSII ir XBOX games than make a few new hundred thousand arcade games, ship them, set them up in an arcade room and then make a profit. In the long run, the arcade scene is slowly dying. Am I wrong? Then go to your local arcade, check out how many new arcades are in the place. Very few, mostly you'll find games from the last 15 years, but hardly anything new. But, this is just my opinion and it only counts if you want it to. |
