What Really REALLY Grinds my Gears: Gaming Edition

Today is one of those days where I'm really really f*cking tired of the gaming industry's bullshit! Here are some things that are pushing me over the edge!

1) Play the Hyrule Warriors demo at select retailers
Hey, Nintendo, don't you have a freggin eShop? Why do I need to leave my residence and travel to the nearest GameStop, Best Buy, Target, ect to play a demo that you could simply post on your damned electronic store?! I get trying to make the demo available to people who for some reason might have their Wii U consoles offline but your last set of charts show that 90% of Wii U owners are connected so seriously, WHAT THE HELL?

2) Speaking of the eShop, I understand that you want to keep a good relationship with your retail partners but...
why are YOU punishing your customers for wanting to take out the middle man? NOT EVERYBODY WANTS TO HAVE A PHYSICAL COLLECTION OF GAMES. Nintendo, you shy away and push the blame on developers saying that they control the prices of games on the eShop but a game that was $59.99 last year or two years ago should NOT be $59.99 a year or two later. Hell, digital games should be 10 dollars CHEAPER in theory because THERE IS NO DISC! The eShop prices are the biggest problem with the damn thing. I can get past the slowness if you just fix the damn game prices!

3) Third Party Developers, NEWS FLASH, the Wii U Gamepad is NOT an excuse to throw away motion controls!
Many of us actually like motion controls. Motion controls brings us further into the gaming experience. For you motion haters reading this thread, I don't give two shits what you think, motion gaming is just as valid as your precious buttons. Capcom, right now I'm specifically talking to you right now. YOU made a port of a Wii game onto Wii U, Monster hunter 3, remember? Yet, you decide to take out the damn Wii Remote and Nunchuck controls? You ever think that some of us actually liked those controls? There is a reason why the Wii and Wii U are the swiss army knife of gaming consoles. You're supposed to be able to have a play style that fits you will still having options that fit other players. I really wish these damned third part developers would understand that!

4) THIS!!!
[video=youtube;dfrZ2VIMMAQ]
Really, Capcom? You made a Wii U port of a Wii game, destroyed the Wii servers and then tried to charge people on Wii U 60 bucks for the damn game especially when the damn visuals arent even that much better than the Wii Version. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

5) This shit! The Resident Evil Remake of a Remake
Capcom, again! You're making a remake of a remake that was on GameCube yet while skipping all over the Wii U when it comes to releases. Actually I've got something to say to Namco Bandai in the same flavor. WTF is wrong with you?! The PS3 and 360 gets ports of Soul Calibur 2 yet you skip the Nintendo audience, the same fucking audience that purchased the most copies of the original game?!?!

6) Coming to PS3, 360, but no Wii U version...but we might slap you in the face with a 3DS version.
ARE YOU SHITTING ME? Just make a damn Wii U port! You don't have to build the game from the ground up. Just slap the 360 or PS3 version on a Wii U disc and mirror the game on the gamepad and many of us would be fine! It's that freggin simple!

7) Gamers
I HATE YOU! I seriously do! You whine and cry and bitch about people who don't play games the same way you do and then get all angsty at not being able to find a mate that is into games. You ever think that if you weren't so damn busy, hating on people who actually enjoy motion controls, and cute games, and actually having happy, clean fun, you might actually find someone nice? Sorry but playing Call of Duty or Assassin's Creed does NOT and I repeat NOT make your "junk' bigger than the next guy. Stay angsty over there while I happily flick you off, enjoy my Babysitting Mama, Super Mario Galaxy and Super Princess Peach all with my lovely wife sitting next to me!

8) Female Naughty Bits, Cosplay and Game Controllers
Ladies, posing your naughty bits with some random ass controller DOES NOT make you a gamer nor does it earn you gamer points in my book. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy looking at teh bewbies -with that said, just adding a game controller doesn't make me go, "oh snap! A woman who might enjoy a conversation about Power Rangers being turned into a multiverse!!!" The sentiment of this also goes for cosplayers. -Thank you for giving my fantasies, physical form but unless you have a strong opinion on something geeky, do go expecting geek points from me.

9) Developer/Publisher Ass Kissing
When you bust your ass weekly and you spend YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY on a product, that product is YOURS. None of this licensing bullshit, none of this follow the "Terms of Service" shit, the item is YOURS within reason. I am sick and tired of gamers kissing developer asses and acting like developers are fucking gods! They are HUMAN, just like you. They get up in the morning, work all day, eat, have worries, take a shit and go to sleep, just like you. When you buy a product you have EVERY right to play it how you want within hardware reason. When you sell your game used, the dev has NO right to ask for a fucking kickback. Do you give Honda money when you sell your 2012 Honda Fit to a neighbor? NO! so why should a developer get side money for a item that you PAID YOUR HARD EARNED money for? Stop kissing asses and realize that most of the corporate types don't give two shits about you and will only suck up to you when their sales are low, just so they can get into your wallet.

I actually have a lot more to say but it's a bit late to be thinking so I'm going to go. I might add more to this later.

Ad.7 - Have you looked into a mirror recently? You sound just as angsty and self-centered, you just play different games. That, and you just went on a tirade about how Resident Evil should be on the Wii U and now you're dissing Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty, also mature games, because they're for dudebro's wheras real gamers play Super Mario: The Same Game As Last Time 12 - Go Right Edition - double standard, much? Here's a thought - maybe playing all games and justenjoying them instead of bickering which ones are better is the way to go?

PFFT YOU WOULD SAY THAT YOU'RE JUST A SWAGGOT (LOLGETIT?I'MWITTY) MORIU R BST SERIES IT'S NOT THE SAME GAME SEE ONE WAS IN SPACE AND THE OTHER WASN'T SEE YOU'RE WRONG LOL SHOWS WHAT YOU KNOW LOL GO BACK TO PLAYING CAWW O DOODY LOL SAME GAME EVERY SINGLE TIME LOL NICE B8 M8 I R8 8/8 LOL

You know what really "grinds my gears"? When gamers bitch about things they're too ignorant to understand.

Dude, for the last 5 days I've done only four things - eating, sleeping, working and playing Destiny. This is possibly my first time logging on GBATemp for longer than 15 minutes this week. "Swaggot" sounds very appropriate, but for all the different reasons - my Warlock has more f*cking swag on him than your average African American rapper.

I'll get back to having no life now. ;O;
