This year they've spent more time and effort fucking over and scamming their fans than they've spent on releasing games. How do you even defend that? And before you even fucking start, don't act like a 20 year old Gamecube game is somehow a part of your faggy little console war roleplay.

Nintendo clearly does not want to be associated with the Smash community, and I honestly can't blame them. Almost all of the main personalities in both Melee and Ultimate are unlikable and a bad image for Nintendo.
>this year
Nintendo's been trash for half a century.
>Iwata dies
>Reggie retires
>Furukawa is a charisma void that hates memes
Without memes to distract them from corporate misbehavior they are finally waking up after years of embrassment (See: The giant collage Zig Forums sent to NoA and the constant whiteknighting for Wii U and Dark Era 2015-2016 Nintendo among other things).
There's no reason for them to end the drought. They can pretty much coast by indefinitely on nothing but ports and one occasional new title, it's how they made so much money. Why make lots of new games when you can make more just by constantly recycling your old shit?
Nintendo butt blasted that some random dude from groomer central can nigger rig a better netcode, in his basement, for a 20 year old game than their multi million dollar mega corporation dev team can for their AAA fighting game experience. Makes people realize just how bad Nintendo really is, and how they seem to offer nothing than their IPs.
Reggie was the reason everything got censored or straight up not release in NA.
Stop following corporate memes.
Just keep on pretending like 2021 isn't about to be Nintendo's biggest year since 2017.
soitendo has operated on the dsp business model for 14 years and counting. "thanks for the money, dummy!"
don't care, they uncensored anime tiddies
I do not care about Melee players.
>Makes people realize just how bad Nintendo really is, and how they seem to offer nothing than their IPs.
Or even worse. They're capable but they're holding back for the sake of profits, and nothing is really incentivizing them to try harder.
True. In an utterly shocking turn of events, Nintendo did a complete 180 on censorship.
meanwhile in reality...
That's what happens when you get rid of Reggie the Faggot.
Give me some more examples besides the one game that was censored during their censorship era.
As long it makes people like you seethe, thats enough for me
Nintendo still censors, but they leave third parties alone and that make them the lesser evil to me.
>Switches still selling like clockwork
Nintendo Chads can't stop winning
You said the same thing last year about this year
Reggie wasn't as based as you think.
(Iwata dying really sucks tho)
>people like you
You mean Nintendo fans?
Only autistic basement dwellers give a shit about melee in current year. Get over it you gaylords
Fatlus handled the game retard.
I don't get why the fuck they're gonna cease and desist Slippi when they themselves won't give us any fucking way to actually play Melee online nowadays.
Like I get it's not required, but would asking for a shitty ass port of Melee to the switch with online play really be that hard? At least then they can have a remotely decent excuse on why the fuck Slippi's mere existence is so god damn bad
But no, don't make any attempt at bringing back old legacy content other than tiny fucking drips for NES and SNES online and give us shit like limited time only releases of shit ports like Mario 3d all stars and Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon
It's a god damn repeat of 2013 all over again and it's fucking bullshit
I already got my money's worth from the Switch. After SMT5 I may never actually buy vidya again since it's been almost a year since I bought anything on Steam too.
>>Switches still selling like clockwork
Sure NINTENDO is winning, they're the ones getting all the cash. But what do the fans get? They get absolutely fucked in the ass that's what.
There is no advantage in Nintendo selling a ton of their consoles for you cunts
They don't want their own 20 year old game competing for exposure with the game that's actually monetizable. Bet if some niggas hooked up F-Zero GX for online play Nintendo wouldn't give a shit.
Children's fighting game paedophile neckbeards buttblasted lmao
Sounds about right because I know damn sure as an Ultimate player with no controller to use on PC I'm jealous of Melee right now, would totally dip if I could.
Pathetic how a god damn 20 year old game has better online made by a singular person over a huge 2 year old game made by a fuck ton of people though for real
>Timed releases of heavily requested rereleased games
>Fucking over core fans who bought a wiiu and supported them even when the ship was sinking. All these updated ports coming to switch with absolutely no way to pay an upgrade fee even if you bought digital. Only way is to buy the game again for full price
>Almost no consumer contact or normal direct for a year
>Pokemon DLC that should've been in base game (although this might've been GameFreak not giving a fuck)
>Smash DLC sucking asshole and steve was just a mass market strat
>Refusing to acknowledge the joycon drift issue than like 3 in 4 people get and have had to buy multiple joycons
>Hit or miss games all year, even if you liked Origami King
>More remasters and ports released this year than actual new games
>Animal Crossing New Horizons crafting becoming a chore and director refusing to give Quality of Life updates because he sees the game more as a service that the consumer should deal with than a fun experience
>Paper Mario director accidently leaking that use of Mario IP characters is on par as working with Disney and that nearly nothing can be creative or original now
You want to know what I played on my Switch this year? This entire year? Clubhouse games. That's fucking it.
Don't buy Mario 3d All Stars
Don't buy nu-Pokemon
Make sure other people don't buy that shit either
If they only care about money then that's the best way to send a message
Same poster I just didnt proofread
>Hit or miss games all year, even if you liked Origami King you can still say it wasn't 10/10 great or even as great as previous entries in the series
What sucks is that people who actively play games is not nintendos core audience
It's the Karens and the children of Karens that make up like 75% of the profit revenue in Ameria and Japan will buy most shit regardless cause cute characters
They don’t go out of their way to appeal to blue Twitter check marks and make games with soul.
I think Tokyo Mirage Sessions is a special case. The idol industry in Japan is severely fucked up. It's full of rampant pedophilia, abuse, harassment, etc. I can understand Nintendo playing it safe with that one.
It helps that their servers are probably dealing with low thousands of users if we're generous, not the hundreds of thousands of users Nintendo's are.
>I don't get why the fuck they're gonna cease and desist Slippi when they themselves won't give us any fucking way to actually play Melee online nowadays.
I'm sorry to tell you this user but Nintendo actually doesn't want you to play Melee. I'm sure they'd just ban all Melee tournaments all together if it wouldn't generate a bunch of blowback. Do you know how obnoxious it is to them that their brand new game is sharing event time with a 20 year old game?
