I don't think I have ever found two more disappointing games that I spent full price on for the same system in my life.

I wish! I'm still waiting for pokemon and smash bros to come out to make getting my DS worth it. So far my XL is just an at home unit for playing DS games which still destroy Vita and 3DS games in terms of quality.

It's alright on paper and sales charts I guess, but to me the Vita is much better why I have more games on it and play it way more.

TC I agree with you. I bought my 3DS based on the strength of a close friend of mine's review of ...

the Vita.

Thus far, it's been great.

Really? I thought Kid Icarus and Paper Mario were more disappointing, especially because Paper Mario was the game I was most excited for this year for the system.

You like SM3DL. Inferior taste confirmed. (well, to be fair, I did like SM3DL. It was just nowhere near worth $40, or even $20).[QUOTE="Minishdriveby"] Really? I thought Kid Icarus and Paper Mario were more disappointing, especially because Paper Mario was the game I was most excited for this year for the system.

I haven't bought them and have too many games in my handheld backlog to care about more expensive 3DS games. I would like to point out how I especially meant "paid full price for." But there always is RE. I will pick that up soon.

I'm not going to bother getting into this going in circles argument again. I've done it enough and in the end it goes nowhere. Like I said the 3DS has a decent library for it's time on the market not a beastly one.

Slow down, bad boy. What is OoT?

But then, I don't own the 3DS, so I can't talk much about it. After seeing the games and how well they are going, I assumed that Nintendo is doing correctly with the handheld unlike Sony. PS Vita is basically a console wannabe. It's a handheld.

KI was soo underwhelming. 3dland was okay, but rather boring an uninspired. Only other game I have can can comment on is OoT and it is a port with a grapchical upgrade. Underwhelming.

outside of the lack of mission mode Mk7 is probably the best and most balanced entry in the series. As for kid icarus, I haven't heard a single legitimate criticism against it that isn't simply whining about the controls

Shinobishyguy

Really? I thought Kid Icarus and Paper Mario were more disappointing, especially because Paper Mario was the game I was most excited for this year for the system.

paper mario I can understand but kid icarus? Thats probably the greatest nintendo game since galaxy 2 :|

lol not even close.

Crap controls. I loved several FPS games on the DS. Stylus + dpad works well and is very accurate. Not the case here. You have to pretend you are rotating a sphere of sorts and use momentum of the screen to turn properly.

Story isconvoluted with so much random crap. Even if they are supposed to be references to other Nintendo games like eggplant wizards for ice climbers, seeing an eggplant with two legs completely snaps you out of the zone. Wtf. Plus the conversation going on the entire time. Annoying as crap. You can't take the game seriously at all.

Its not terrible, but not top notch stuff by any means let alone best game since SMG 2?

You do realize that broken controls (which even the best argument in the world cannot overcome if someone thinks a game has broken controls) make up a huge part of a game right?

I think Super Mario 3D Land is amazing, best handheld platformer, probably ever. But I agree the OoT remake was a big letdown. Really no new additions to the game at all. I was hoping for something to make it worth while, but honestly I'd rather play the original because the controls aren't very good and the 3D kinda sucks. Wasn't worth buying again.

game is medicore at best without online play which you usually don't have on the go. No quick race option. No Mission mode. No bots in offline mulitplayer to fill out the race. Game is a huge let down aftr the awesomeness that was MKDS

except they aren't broken :| it's a simple matter of messing around the the options and spending a few minutes to get used to them. After that they are a non-issue.

Compared to the PSVita, I'd say he's right. At least the majority of these games he's listed are actually on retail shelves.

[QUOTE="Minishdriveby"][QUOTE="Blabadon"]I don't think I have ever found two more disappointing games that I spent full price on for the same system in my life.Shinobishyguy

Really? I thought Kid Icarus and Paper Mario were more disappointing, especially because Paper Mario was the game I was most excited for this year for the system.

paper mario I can understand but kid icarus? Thats probably the greatest nintendo game since galaxy 2 :|
and before you go on about the controls, spare me. Thats about the only argument I've heard from detractors

It's a pretty valid point to complain about.

Having a weird ass dash/walk system and littering the later levels with platforms/ledges that float over bottomless pits caused countless frustration. Then along with the difficulty system that lowers every time you die; it's a pain in the ass. The horrible vehicle controls were nothing to write home about either.

I didn't have trouble with enemies. It was the awkward pseudo-platforming. It sucks too because as difficulty level lowered bosses that took 2 minutes to beat on higher difficulty took 30 seconds to beat.

Another complaint I had was the checkpoints weren't save points, some levels are quite short; some levels can last for awhile. It would be nice to break up the flying/ground sections with a save point if I'm running low on time.

So there are my reasons. I haven't delved into the online yet, and most likely won't because that' not my kind of shindig.

[QUOTE="Blabadon"][QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"]As for kid icarus, I haven't heard a single legitimate criticism against it that isn't simply whining about the controls Shinobishyguy
You do realize that broken controls (which even the best argument in the world cannot overcome if someone thinks a game has broken controls) make up a huge part of a game right?

except they aren't broken :| it's a simple matter of messing around the the options and spending a few minutes to get used to them. After that they are a non-issue.

you can throw that BS line down but it doesn't change the fact that they are terrible. KI trys to be fast paced with dashing and other stuff. This only severes to amplify the inherient issue with the controls. They simply do not work well enough. Turning around should not take that much effort or be that inaccurate.

[QUOTE="Shinobishyguy"][QUOTE="Jonwh18"] except its not? MK7 is very medicore which is a real bummer because nintendo only releases one MK per system. They aren't going to make another. KI was soo underwhelming. 3dland was okay, but rather boring an uninspired. Only other game I have can can comment on is OoT and it is a port with a grapchical upgrade. Underwhelming.

outside of the lack of mission mode Mk7 is probably the best and most balanced entry in the series. As for kid icarus, I haven't heard a single legitimate criticism against it that isn't simply whining about the controls

game is medicore at best without online play which you usually don't have on the go. No quick race option. No Mission mode. No bots in offline mulitplayer to fill out the race. Game is a huge let down aftr the awesomeness that was MKDS

The thing that really pissed me off about MK7 was they took out a lot of the racers that were in previous games, shrinking the roster to an incredibly low number. I also found most of the new tracks to be kinda lame; I liked the tracks in MK Wii better. It's a shame Retro couldn't make better designs.

Like I said, the best argument in the world won't change that in the mind of the many who think it is. For example, Syphon Filter: Logan's Shadow is an awesome TPS that suffers from being on the PSP. I never understood what issues people had with its controls until I realized I myself had adjusted to using the buttons to move and analog stick to aim. This is too awkward to others, and just telling them to "get use to it," even in the most intrinsic manner, won't change it to them that they think the game didn't have good controls.
