The Official "Dropping the Truth Bombs" Thread

[Gahars]

The industry is nothing but shitty sequels and rehashes. It's Call of Duty this, Halo that, all the time. When will the sheeple finally wake up?

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go play the New Super Mario Bros. and the latest Pokemon, both of them.

Thankfully, Foxi4's last will and testament has arrived at my residence, and the proper unveiling of the document will take place later tonight on the front portal.

Hello boys and girls! It's time for another Truth Bomb!

Truth Bomb #2: Nintendo games are not creative. All Nintendo's done for the past 20+ years is regurgitating the same 5 IP's over and over again, and you're all lapping their spunk up like it's Ambrosia. When Activision releases Call of Duty yearly it's a disgrace, but when the same old Pokemon reskin happens to be released at similar intervals, everybody lines up at the glory holes ready for another serving - how embarrasing.

Nintendo literally has 5 games - Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Kirby and DK, and that's an order of relevance. They don't even try to pretend that they care about StarFox or Metroid - there hasn't been a single true sequel in the StarFox franchise since Lylat Wars and Other M was practically still-born. Don't get me started on F-Zero - that IP doesn't exist anymore and you might as well get comfortable with that thought. Guess what? You'll keep on getting those 5 games over and over again and you're going to love it, because there isn't a creative bone in the entirety of Nintendo's software studios.

New and exciting productions like Golden Sun in the GBA era are completely burried under mountains of crappy tech demos released as fully priced games like Pilotwings 3DS or hastily put together pseudo-remakes like Ocarina of Time 3D or Wind Waker U. Before someone mentions Animal Crossing, that game is made specifically for people with obsessive-compulsive disorders and is a blatant rip-off of Harvest Moon, except with animals as characters. That, and guess what? You're only getting one per generation anyways, just like with Smash Bros., so who even cares?

Have fun with another 6 years of "nothing new" and keep funding Nintendo's festival of mediocrity - they're your "saviours of the industry" after all. ;O;

ITT Foxi points out the obvious ;O;O;
I was actually thinking of posting a similar "truth" about Nin10doh earlier, but I didn't have enough time to write it all up before I had to leave for work so I just added the little "blah blah Nin10doh only releases sequels blah blah" thing.

The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.

Thankfully, Foxi4's last will and testament has arrived at my residence, and the proper unveiling of the document will take place later tonight on the front portal.

Further proof that creativity in Nintendo went out the window decades ago, if they had any in the first place:

• The protagonist of StarFox is Fox McCloud, he happens to be a fox.
• His wingman and rival is Falco who happens to be a falcon.
• Wolf O'Donnel is Fox McCloud's nemesis and look-alike, he is a wolf.
• Mario and Luigi are known as the Mario Bros., meaning that their names are Mario Mario and Luigi Mario. Wow.

Gee whiz, Nintendo - I see what you did there! I guess Sega should've named their mascot Hedgehog the Hedgehog- now it all makes sense!

Even further proof that Nintendo is not creative in any shape or form - when Ninendo wants to make a new franchise or an innovative game, they acquire (or at least hire) a studio that has already made that franchise or game and give it a re-skin if needs be. It happened numerous times over the course of history. Here's an incomplete list with most notable titles:

• Rareware (Donkey Kong Country, StarFox Adventures AKA Dinosaur Planet before Shiggy started meddling with it)
• Platinum Games (Bayonetta 2)
• Game Freak (Pokemon)
• Camelot Software (Golden Sun)
• HAL Laboratory (Smash Bros., EarthBound/Mother, Kirby)
• Intelligent Systems (Wars series)

Everything you know and love is a lie. ;O;

Further proof that creativity in Nintendo went out the window decades ago:

• Wold O'Donnel is Fox McCloud's nemesis and look-alike, he is a wolf

Wold O'Donnel is my favorite character.

 

[Foxi4]

Wold O'Donnel is my favorite character.

Forgive the typo, it's hard to type and laugh at the same time.

You're proud to be anti nintendo, yet you like Sega.

I'm not Anti-Nintendo. I write it how I see it.

They suck because they won't make a new StarTropics, and I don't mean animeize it and make a shit sequel (Kid Icarus)

I've never played StarTropics, sounds pretty niche to me. That said, it only goes to show that my original claim of "Nintendo has 5 games that they repeatedly release and really don't care about the rest" is entirely valid. ;O;

It's the best they have.

Also, look at how many people say stuff like make a new Mother, and they don't? The demand is there, and they don't do it anyways.

Sony fanboys be like...




THE NAME MAKE NO SENSE! what did you expect a math equation about string theory?



BUT ITS ABOUT THE GRAPHICS! MY GAME IS SO REAL.... ITS ALL ABOUT THE FEELING... THE FEELINGS! when gamecube had the better graphic was it all about the gameplay?

ALL NINTENDO DOES IS THE SAME THING.. but hey why do you buy PlayStation when a PC does the same thing like 10 times better...


PLAYSTATION IS ABOUT HARDCORE GAMERS.. wait what about the dildo thingy?

LITTLE BIG PLANET IS SO FUN... but isnt it sonys answer to Mario/DK games?

NINTENDO NEVER INNOVATES!... but look at the main controllers when was it the same? where as the PS is almost the same thing.

 

[Foxi4]

*Tears of Enrustlement*

Don't you just love those fantabulous dual analogs? Y'know, the ones everybody uses nowadays? Don't you just crave to click those clickable analogs? Those two grips instead of a retarded batarang like some other company? That integrated rumble functionality and motion control instead of external add-ons for even the most basic functionality? Mmmm... DualShock... So good that it barely even had to change over the years - shocking. ;O;

hater

that sounds like something sega would do.. and we know sega does what nintendont on the Dreamcast 2. ;O:

I'm afraid that Sega still does what Nintendon't - they *didn't* release a system that falls flat on its face to compete with the PS4 and the Xbox One. ;O;
