Top 10 Things Nintendo Wants You to Forget
Nintendo is a house hold name a company that single handily saved the video game industry and created some the best game series in history however even Nintendo has had a few moments that they most want you to forget about.
The only games that work on it include 3D Tetris, Wario Land, Red Alarm, Mario Clash, Jack Bros., and other games. Its graphics are red and black only, and if I play on it, it hurts my eyes.
Now there are only 770,000 units, and people are not buying them anymore because they think it will hurt their eyes. I agree with what people say. It's the worst console by Nintendo, and its games are the worst.
The Virtual Boy was doomed from the very beginning due to its terrible design, awful graphics that really hurt your eyes, and its very small video game library. On the one hand, it does make a good collectible item.
For whatever reason, Nintendo allowed Philips to make games from the Mario and Zelda series, which was a disaster. There was Hotel Mario, and then we got these awful Zelda games: Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon, Link: The Faces of Evil, and Zelda's Adventure. Each was worse than the last and featured some of the ugliest cutscenes in video game history.
The Philips CD-i itself would have been much better if it was a CD-ROM add-on for the Super Nintendo, much like the Sega CD for the Mega Drive.
We didn't forget these trash piles!
The idea of having 30 classic NES games in a mini NES system was genius, but for whatever reason, they weren't able to meet the demand.
Unfortunately, Nintendo's decision to censor Mortal Kombat for the Super NES ended up helping their rival Sega, who allowed players to play the game with all the blood and fatalities.
Now "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" is verbatim the title of the new animated movie.
At least The Super Mario Bros. Super Show was good.
This movie is terrible. They shouldn't have tried.
They did a really good job at hiding this. Looking at you, Illumination.
In this disaster of a game, instead of castles you have hotels. Your goal is to close doors while avoiding enemies, which is as boring as it sounds.
And that's it - that's the whole game, plus the atrocious cutscenes.
When screenshots of The Wind Waker were shown, Nintendo didn't get the reaction they were hoping for. Almost everyone dismissed it as being too cartoony, childish, and even stupid. However, once players actually played the game, very few people were complaining.
The Newcomers
Amateur move, Nintendo. Real professionals capitalize on that and make more. Then you roll in the money.
The reason why the Wii was heavily criticized was because of its lack of blood and gore.
Yes. This actually happened.
They have never, ever mentioned it at all, and brush off the question when asked about it.
Probably in Paper Mario, but the main series games (such as the upcoming Super Mario Odyssey) still introduce new original characters.
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! is an American television series, conceived by Andy Heyward, produced by DIC Animation City, and distributed by Viacom Enterprises in association with Nintendo, airing during 1989 from 4 September to 1 December. Technically, the ad campaign for the new Mario movie uses the theme song, but sure?
Nintendo really forgets this exists.
I think this is something Nintendo would rather keep buried and was only re-released by a third party related to Nintendo in 2017 for nostalgia reasons. I don't think Nintendo wants people seeing Luigi in drag.
