your opinion if you find it a great game, but its still a game thats been recycled since day one.

now i fail to find TLOU for the PS1.

but hey, nice to see the same ole, when a valid pointer been made, completely ignored so likely to avoid facing the problem you then go side track to change the subject which has already been mentioned prior as this particular game is not first party its an exclusive third party title.

here just to recap before:


but we then also compare it to nintendo's past consoles....

compare the N64 with the PS1, which had the better third party support
compare the cube with the PS2/XBX, which had the better third party support
compare the wii to the PS3/360, which had the better third party support
compare the wii u to the..... well no point here the console was DOA

now when we look at all the nintendo consoles and ask, why did it lack the third party support and answers to this are because of nintendo.

N64 - expensive cart format vs the cd format, plus cd's allowed devs to do new things
Cube - had the hardware, had limited storage but also became more of a kids console littered with mario (insert activity) but third party loyalty continued from the PS1 over to the PS2 and even MS got better support even for its first console.
Wii - didnt have the hardware, had limitations on control hence why it was littered with same old party mini games. again devs then focused more to the PS3/360 hardware and left the wii out.
Wii u - didnt interest devs because it was just a subpar last gen system and again they focused on PS4/XBX1 hardware.

Now the switch, inferior hardware, expensive cart format...... what on earth gives people the impression that the issues repeated during the last four consoles nintendo released is somehow going to be different..... what because nintendo promised to do better this time, fuck me i heard the same shit after the N64.


if this is all nintendo have, then once its wow factor dies down the switch will become the same old forgotten console while third parties continue to focus on the other systems and will only port its old crap if its capable
Hang on, why are you going totally off topic again, oh right hang on is that the same old rant recycled again just like a Nintendo game but underlined, yeah yeah it is surprise surprise.

This is a topic about Mario Kart 8 delux, not N64 not Cube not 3rd party support not Nintendo hardware not blah blah rant blah.

Stay on topic trollboy for once, if you want to talk about that same old shit, yet again, go find a post about it, or start a thread. Stop derailing threads and turning them towards your one single opinion just so you can repeat yourself for the 15th time this week.

PMSL that was to quote something you said, nice to see when a valid point has been made peeps who refuse to see it then want to change direction.

you think nintendo will improve this time...... lets look back and see how theyve said the same before and never happened.

trust me, there is a reason ive gone from loving nintendo to now thinking fuck them, they dont innovate shit, they use gimmicks to make a cheap system sound better than it is, but its games well.....

sure folks who love nintendo and mario will blindly buy this game, to a gamer i would think its an ok game but nothing that would make me want to play it for more than an hour or something id come back to 3 months later, in makes it worse that its a new console recycling the wii u version, which the mrs owns.

so lets ignore MK8 DX because its not much different that nintendo couldnt save your dollar and release as a WII U DLC pack..... what else has the switch got coming....... not much. then we circle back to what third parties are going to release and we see the above referencing to the same as before....... nothing much and wii know why.

How about Gran Turismo, how about Forza, how about Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter.
How about Fifa or Call of Duty or any 1st person shooter, how about Final Fantasy that one actually has remasters from old Sony consoles. All rehashed old games, they're called "genre" titles.

my bad for pointing out the flaw with what you claimed was going to give the switch better chance of nintendo saying it will change this time.....

fair enough if y'all love nintendo and its icons fair enough, thats your opinion but none the less keep an open mind as you watch this be another console to add with the list and reasons i put.

people seem to forget i am someone who loved nintendo, but its not the case anymore.

GT yes i see this as the same as MK in a sense, but its not like sony are releasing the PS2 version with new tracks are they, same applies to forza, street fighter until it came 3d yea its a beat em up, fifa already quoted that again i guess you failed to see it.

Cod yes fps games, but all have different stories its not the same thing each time, but also not a fan of cod.

but again to the point, nintendo are charging you full whack for MK8 four years later

I think you're making too big a deal of this first party/third party business.
It doesn't matter, as a game is still a game in the end. As mentioned above, having it ported to a newer console, which undoubtedly has a larger player base than the Wii U, allows several newcomers to play the game which they would not be able to play without purchasing a Wii U. For those of us who already have MK8 on the WiiU... The price is disappointing.

i still dont get your issue with mk8D

MK8D is basicaly a definitive edition, why on earth cant nintendo make a definitive edition of a game from a previous gem? srs you make no sence at all, all your logic is flawed, every freaking company in gaming has made editions of the same game with extra content and even on newer gens.

sony had tlou and gow3 right on the release time give or take on ps4.
heck even gta5 released a new version with a new 1st person mode exclusive to ps4,xb1 same story same game but with extra mode sounds similar enought to mk8d to you?

ms did master chief collection and gear of war and so on.

Konani did this alot, so did ubisoft and preety much any 3rd party and 1st party in existence,so what is so wrong of nintendo start doing what others do and release a definitive,complete ,goty edition,whatever and call it deluxe? srs you make no sence, go rant to every company them, every time you see a goty edition or definitive edition of a last gen game on a newer gen or even on the same gen.

DEFINITIVE editions,GOTY editions,complete editions dont have a diferent story they have the same story, you got dishonored, tomb raider,etc a released on ps3 and then they have definitive edition on ps4 with the exact same story.

there will be a mario kart 9 or switch or whatever its called,this isnt it, this is a definitive edition of an older game that every company does every time.

And for all the switch owners that do not have a WiiU. And it's a LOT. Probably all wiiu games need to be re released for switch so many people could play donkey kong, mario kart, mario 3d world, paper mario, pokken tournament, xenoblade, yoshi, mario maker, captian toad, hyrule warriors

because what definitive about it, its physically identical other than some slight changes that people didnt like in the wii u version.

why is it so hard to accept the possibility that nintendo physcially made a new game.

this is my point, slate other companies for something yet nintendo fans defend nintendo and love the shit.

you expect ports from third parties, but if nintendo release a new console and from get go theyre porting its old titles as new titles for its new console..... youd expect something new from them.

but yea lets slate sony and ms for allowing its third parties to port its titles (that nintendo failed to get LOL) but then defend nintendo because all they ever do is rehash the same games on every single console made to date.

this is my problem with nintendo, you buy a new console to play basically the same games over again, nothing really from third parties that the other systems get, or you find it gets a port years later.

nintendo are to start drooling MK8 DX is getting the perfect 10/10 score and its like WTF its the same fecking game with slight changes, Zelda got the same rating and its like again WTF it has no fucking story and is so repetetive.

how the fuck are these people rating it so highly when other games have been better and got less.

i would suggest either ratings are off fans or paid for.

It retains its review score because it's still fun. No one bashed Sony for having remakes and ports. You're bashing Nintendo, though, for porting mk8. You ought to cool it.

Well he has an extremely valid point but the problem isn't Nintendo it's everyone who buys their products (I have it on pre-order!)

Life is like that.

i love how people use the word fun when it comes to nintendo.

your playing the same game what makes it more fun. and if you didnt see in other threads users try defend nintendo using sony or ms for ports (third parties).

i just love how nintendo lovers blindy defend them, i will cool it now because i guess regardless nintendo have released the same game rather than something new for its new console and y'all like shut up its not.

its shit like this thats made me dislike nintendo, ive gone from being a fan to thinking fuck them im sick of playing the same shit, i dont buy their bullshit excuses or promises, give it a year and watch how theres fuck all to play while the other systems continue the proven track record of getting the third party AAA titles.

i rest my case becuase you dont know what a definitive,complete,goty version of a game is, you basicaly say it and you dont get what a definitive version is, its the same freacking game with some tweaks, srs im guessing you dont play games or something to not know what is the meaning of a definitive,complete,goty,wahtever edition is...

you dont get a diferent game at all, no one offers you a diferent game on an final edition... its the same exact game with some tweks like you said it yourself lol.

and you dont get it that this is all nintendo ever do with its games, again new console same game slightly changed.

... its the same exact game with some tweks like you said it yourself lol.

and again this is exactly it to the T, take a look at all nintendo titles from all consoles and notice its the same game on every console slightly changed, nothing new and this here is where third parties step in releasing new content that previous systems didnt have, but nintendo always lack third parties and your left with....

i rest my motherfucking case.

your just being dumb now becuase you continue to say mk8d is a new game when it isnt, not even nintendo named it a new game they still call it mk8 deluxe.

also racing games dont have story 99% of the time so you can say the same thing about every freaking racing game that ever had a sequel, you drive a car on a diferent track and win that is what a racing game is, and dont go around saying oh but all racing games have diferent storys lol.

being dumb? where have i said its a new game, you really do refuse to see the point, im saying its not a new game durrrp the problem im saying is you have a new console and your getting a recycled fecking game, rather than a new game.

this exactly proves my point how people who love nintendo refuse to see negativity said about them and only see what they want, not at any point did i claim MK8 was a new title

also racing games dont have story 99% of the time so you can say the same thing about every freaking racing game that ever had a sequel, you drive a car on a diferent track and win that is what a racing game is, and dont go around saying oh but all racing games have diferent storys lol.

and yes you are right, as it is a racing game but again you miss that this is a game nintendo re releases like all its other games on EVERY SINGLE CONSOLE, nothing new about them other than a graphical upgrade..... nintendo in general keep re releasing the same games, and again pointing out something comes as no suprise you dont get much option of anything else.

yup so you avoid the fact i never claimed MK8 to be a new game, which you somehow read i did, your more concerned about defending nintendo and using a small handful of titles which here is the link where ive already said about what your trying to counter with:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/mario-kart-8-comparison-video-switch-vs-wii-u.468184/page-8

so back on track with your counter, remove nintendo's recycled shit and what else is there, i mean majority of these ports your bitching about for MS/SONY are from third parties, all of which skip nintendo completely.

so to repeat again, remove nintendo titles what else is there.

you love the idea to buy a new console to play the same game just slightly tweaked rather than something completely new. or again get what was a good third party game sony/ms had years ago finally ported because nintendo catch up.

@Retroboy

You understand that probably everybody here also owns either a PS4 or an XBOX or a PC right?

And we can, and do, play plenty of 3rd party titles on those consoles right?

And that we probably have no need to have them on a Nintendo console because we just buy them on PS4...right?

And that we play Nintendo games, on Nintendo consoles because we can't play them on PS4.......right?

And that we may have families and kids we enjoy playing family friendly titles together on the couch that we can all enjoy........right?

Why in God's name do we need 3 consoles all with the exact same 3rd party games, why?

You understand, being in your thirties, that just because you feel one way about something doesn't mean everybody shares or should be forced to share your viewpoint...........right?

Oh and why are you still saying the same tired shit over and over and over, because your trolling again......RIGHT?

agreed i also own all consoles dating back many years



yes but the point being you are refused this option when it comes to nintendo

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]And that we probably have no need to have them on a Nintendo console because we just buy them on PS4...right?
[/quote]

no, because when you find you have nothing to play, then this console you just bought ends up sitting doing nothing. that is a fucked up excuse to why nintendo shouldnt get the better third party support, if you own a nintendo console and have plenty of PS4/XBX1 games to play, whats to stop you from having that choice to play something new for the nintendo console for a change?

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]And that we play Nintendo games, on Nintendo consoles because we can't play them on PS4.......right?
[/quote]

been the point, you buy a new console mainly to play the same old nintendo titles, is it really worth paying for over priced out dated hardware just to play a recycled MK8 game? or resuce peach for the 100th fecking time?

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]And that we may have families and kids we enjoy playing family friendly titles together on the couch that we can all enjoy........right?
[/quote]

yes nintendo do seem to offer more shovelware crap thats fun for a quick family get together, something youd play for 30mins at a time and thats it really, but also the other consoles do offer family/kid themed games, but not littered with them unlike nintendo

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]Why in God's name do we need 3 consoles all with the exact same 3rd party games, why?
[/quote]

because thats the gaming market, its about having that choice, thats like saying why the fuck does every store have to have kellogs corn flakes when you can go to asda and buy them, so that logic just fails.

so your saying its ok nintendo gamers not to have that option because i own other consoles and will buy it for that insted.... erm no, how about nintendo keep to their promise and actually do something to provide the games they keep missing out on rather than wait for them to catch up and get ports years later.

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]You understand, being in your thirties, that just because you feel one way about something doesn't mean everybody shares or should be forced to share your viewpoint...........right?
[/quote]

my age has no meaning to this, its simply started off to point out how nintendo have basically recycled the same old game, yet everyones thinking its the dogs bollocks, what because it has slight changes it jumps from the original been 8/10 to a 10/10 well fuck me that means other games that got 8/10 then deserve 10/10 because its had dlc content added.

[QUOTE="Risingdawn, post: 7268476, member: 254062"][USER=366307]Oh and why are you still saying the same tired shit over and over and over, because your trolling again......RIGHT?
[/QUOTE]

because you fail to read the people i quote that insist this is not the case, then come up with bs logics.

so what you are saying is, its ok nintendo should not give gamers the option of said games because sony/ms gets them.... remind us, what was the reason for the wii u's failure, in fact i did mention a while back which was ignored (no shock) to why third parties dont support nintendo as much.

nintendo can keep promising better support all they like, its not like theyve been saying this every time they release another console....... and it never happens.
