Don't get me wrong, I've been a Nintendo fan for a long time. Between my brother and I, we have owned every Nintendo system (aside from DS, we had gameboys/advanced)

Nintendo has ALWAYS been catered towards "casual gamers"....always.

Your understanding of what a hardcore gamer is is completely off. I can't think of one single game that a new person can walk in and own someone who has been attempting to master the game (your hardcore gamer).

n64 and gamecube had great games, the wii.....not so much. Also, as you get older, games naturally become easier because you can comprehend everything quicker.


Games are what games are.

You shouldn't waste your time complaining about what isn't there.....(your feelings for brawl)


Games like Mario and Zelda aren't casual...

casual is stuff that is catered to non-gamers. stuff like Bejeweled or Wii Sports, stuff that your grandma can play. Try to let your grandma play Mario galaxy or zelda lol, it won't work out

It's a good game but it has a few things that annoy me:

1. The ultimate attacks are unbalanced, and can ruin good fights.
2. It's more luck dependant than the previous games.
3. Most of the new scenearios are too small.
4. Sonic and Solid Snake, aren't original Nintendo characters; they shouldn't be in the game, atleast not when King K.Rool, Goemon, Boo, Andross, and many others aren't in the game.

yeah, it's true that Andross for example wouldn't normally be "playable", but I just said some random Nintendo characters I managed to think of while replying :lol:

About number 3, I mean that many of the new levels get don't give you the freedom of movements you get on the bigger ones. I only end up playing in a handful of levels; mainly in Melee's Temple and Great Fox.

sigh.....I never said anything about mario and zelda....which reminds me...they aren't hard games, i actually would call them casual.

Nintendo has always catered towards casual gaming...it's a fact. This is coming from someone who has had every nintendo system (besides DS/gameboy color)

Read this if you want to understand something important....

Games that existed in the late 80's and 90's were simple. There wasn't much to them. Kids and parents could both pick up the games and play. Now....and the previous decade....Most games are a lot more involved and for those who don't play video games, they take that extra step to get used to it. Just the simplicity of going from 2d to 3d can change the perspective of the non-gamer.

So yes, someone's grandma could play mario, or zelda...they are not complicated games by no means...but give them a game like Wow, and it would take them months to understand. I'm not saying Wow is a complicated game, but for those who have never experienced a MMO, it can be. Most nes games were all the same, just with different characters, plot, and scenery.


SSBB isn't more noob-friendly. If you're going to complain about the smashball (yes, I hate it too) turn it off. A brand new SSBB player won't beat someone who knows the game...it's a fighting game.
