@iandizion713: or not at all. With how they're handling BOW I don't see them going back to the old formula. But one can hope to see it someday.

@iandizion713: If I ran the zoo things would be different. But just going by statistics and listening to the youthful market I have access to, Nintendo is not refreshing the dwindling pool of lovers as they once did.
@Kruiz_Bathory: Yeah, i expect well see it on NX along with a 2D Zelda game. I think Nintendo was trying to go dark, and then was like fack it, we need some cheerful colors, shats depressing around here.
@cainetao11: I dont see Microsoft and Sony doing anything better. Nintendo is at least trying to go after the youth as they game on tablet and phones. As for older kids, Nintendo cant help if Nintendo games arent appealing or popular among them, thats their problem. They want Nintendo to make mature games and Disney to make mature animations.
@iandizion713: oh yeah. that was class also. that iconic blue light. originally i think nitnendo just had it there to show where the disc would go in. but people went mad for it so they built it into the retail unit.
maybe they should have the NX dropped in by a drone when its revealed :P.
@osan0: That would be funny. I think they should try the same format kinda. Have a presenter announce it, tell us the concept, and show it off. Then a video of advertising the concept. Im sure they got some good ideals, i like their new marketing teams.

Disney has procured Star Wars and has made the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and also has their hands in many areas that are catered towards adult audiences. Nintendo's not like them at all. I'd equate them more to Fischer price in terms of targeted demographics.
@superbuuman: Star Fox Zero dont actually need it. You can play the whole game toggling on one screen.
I am just pointing out from the video shown, what Miyamoto said about the Wii U gamepad - what could be done?...before Wii U launch...to what he did with it after launch. :P
You cant expect Nintendo to do all the work always. Also there are many ways to use the Gamepad, not just one way. My favorite is off-screen play, which Nintendo uses a lot.
No I do, when they are the one changing stuff & telling the gamepad is worth buying. :P I mean they need to grill more whoever came up the idea for the Wii U gamepad to exist ..even if it is from "God-to" Miyamoto himself. He should be grilled for why it should exist & why it should happen...not just saying "oh we leave for others to figure it out"...the gamepad wasn't cheap...hopefully they realise this with NX...& anyone that come up with new function/whatever for NX controllers will be grilled as to why, & what for...so we don't get a repeat of Wii U gamepad. :P
@cainetao11: That was one of Nintendos mistakes. They stated, we want to go this way and not compete with Sony or Xbox. So they designed their console and games to be different. What they didnt expect, is that Sony and Xbox would change coarse and follow Nintendo forcing them back into competition. Nintendo then tried again to go a different route with Wii U, trying to be more balanced, but Sony and Xbox went above them again. Everything Nintendo tries to do different, the industry just follows Nintendo for some reason forcing them to compete.
Remember Miiverse and Mii characters, all thats being copied. Remember Nintendos Indie scene of trying to help the little developers, it was the reason they made cheaper consoles, to lower development cost, Xbox and Sony would later do the same. Remember 3D tech and AR tech Nintendo tried to do to be different, that tech is being used by Sony, Xbox, and others too.
Big money is powerful.
Move and Kinect weren't that successful, really. While they clearly tried to ride the coattails of Wii/motion gaming, by the time they were released the Wii was already on it's downturn. And nobody is going to attribute the PS3 or 360 success because they "copied Nintendo" with their motion controls, or anything else for that matter.
Nintendo certainly had a hit with the Wii. But I think that was sort of a fad that came and went on it's own. What happened to Nintendo after was simply them not coming up with another hit idea. I mean problem 1a is the fact that Wii-U was not even notably more powerful than PS3/360. They got away with that underpowered hardware on the Wii because of the brilliance of the motion controlling gimmick. It was a great idea that people wanted to try out (even if just for a short while). But the idea of a tablet controller was not that brilliant, people didn't really care. So all that's left was an underpowered and overpriced console that only insane Nintendo fanboys could justify. Hopefully Nintendo come up with better hardware this time around so their games will have a better platform.
@2Chalupas: Nintendo has a hit with bout everything they do. How many Wii U features are being copied by the industry? All of them? What?
@MirkoS77: Disney has never made a mature animation. Nintendo has made a mature game before.
@superbuuman: Plenty of games use the Gamepad in cool ways, im sorry but i dont want every single game trying to use the gamepad. Its just like with Wii, we dont need every single Wii game using motion controls, and thank god not all did.

Why are we restricting this to animation? Disney is not all animation y'know. They're a company that does movies, animations, theme parks, toys. The movies I mentioned are mature.
@MirkoS77: Because thats what people have been asking for, that Disney make a mature animation movie thats caters to teens and young adults. But yeah, a mature movie or game would be nice too. They have yet to make one.
@MirkoS77: What mature rated r movie do they got? Wheres their rated m game?
Right, now all of a sudden adult has morphed into m or rated r.
I can name plenty of adult themed movies Disney has made. For some reason, you Nintendo fans seem to equate blood and guts, tits and ass with "adult". This is a prepubescent understanding of what being an adult entails.
@MirkoS77: Sorry, we want the stuff that comes in those ratings. Rated M games and rated R movies. I know Nintendo has done one, but its time to do more. Also time for Disney to step up, get with the times.

Sorry, you're moving the goalposts to be-suit your argument away from what the topic is. I won't play ball, and hopefully one day you'll realize that adult doesn't mean rated R or M. It means not being fischer priced and approaching adult themes and material, something Disney does much more on a regular basis than Nintendo ever does.
Deal with it.
@MirkoS77: It means whatever i want it to mean, it was my statement. But i understand you have nothing to say now, Disney has never made an adult movie that caters to teens and young adults who like mature adult content. They have never made a rated R movie or a rated M game.
Nintendo on the other hand has. Deal with it. But like i stated, we want more. more blood please. Nothing wrong with these companies catering to both, stop defending them.
@MirkoS77: Its what we want. We want rated R movies and rated M games. We want that dark real shat. We want pain, suffering, against all odds, noir, sex, death, decay, nudity, gore, we want it all.
When i was little i use to play this Nascar game. I would get on that game and drive backwards on the track crashing stuff. It was an awesome game. The car damage in that game was sweet too.
Then the industry took that shat away from me. They refused to let me drive backwards. Started removing damage. Changed the game forever. But its time to change it back.
I enjoy seeing a messy Nintendo, they're very entertaining. Cannot wait for the cringe worthy NX announcement!!!
HA HA HA Coolyfett does also man!!! Nintendo does a lot of funny stuff. Coolyfett doesnt want them to fail, but the Memes they product are legendary.

Drive backwards in Mario Kart! Chaos!
The reveal trailer makes it seem as though the Wii U is just a new controller you can use with your Wii. What a fail, lol.
Disney has released tons of dark themed animations. I find them darker and more mature than any of the CGI garbage released today.
The Lion King
Aladdin(Especially Return of Jafar)
Snow White
Beauty and The Beast
Bambi
Most of these stories feature dark themes, people dying, violence, poisoning, Alcohol abuse and a bunch more.
Much better than garbage like Cars or Shrek.
@Heil68: well the X1 was a bit different. MS were actually very clear about their plans for the X1. what happened is that the market saw what the plan was and said "you have got to be beeping kidding me". but they got the message accross in fairness to them. its just their entire plan was a non runner.
in the case of the wiiu it was just "gerspelgasplergatabletmeepnoclearideasonwhattodowithitwoopie".
in fariness to sony they learned from the PS3 (another screw up. no clear message. no direction). the message was loud and clear. the PS4 was the most powerful console on the market. it cost the same as the competition. it has and will get all the games you are looking for and there is no nonsense. message received and understud.
100% nx flops. 100%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% WII U level of floppage incoming.
I will always say, If nintendo wanted to return back to glory, They should release the supernintendo 3 with a purchase of at least 2 or 3 american game studios. Time to get companies that were like Rare in the golden days of super nintendo to keep churning out quality nintendo games. RARE was unbelievable... These are the games coming out of RARE back then.. Donkey Kong, Battletoads , Perfect Dark, 007, Killer Instinct, Banjo. Rare is a shell of its glorious past. Back then they had passion. Now they release garbage driven by the microsofts model of "social experiences". It has destroyed them as a game company.
Something happened to nintendo when the Wii was released. Because of its extremely successful but very short lived boom the wii had, they believe that all consoles from there on out must release with a gimmick so as to relive their Wii days. But what they have failed to realize is that those days are over. Phone has taken the mobile/touch games by storm. There is no gimmick that can beat what most phones are already doing. So if you are going to release a home console. It better be highly spec'd in accordance to its competition and a serious focus has to be on the games.
Nintendo has to stop only relying on its own personal studios to carry the weight. And unless the machine can play multiplats better or on par, IT will be a complete failure for multiplats.
Nintendo has lost its way.
