As far as a company who has the best First-Party titles and a good reputation with the quality of their games, Nintendo wins hands down.

Sorry Bungie fanboys, but its the truth. I still think Halo is the work of multiple geniuses, but that is only one game. Nintendo has been creating great games since I was a child, and they are the ones I grew up on.

Maybe so, but Nintendo have essentially died in the water. I really can't say any GameCube titles have been real quality, and no game is getting as hyped up as Halo 2.

That is true, but I was only referring to First-Party games.

Halo 2 will slaughter any game out so far.

Oh, thats not true. Don't try to sum up my eclectic taste in video games by saying I only like Halo you ignorant non-english speaking buffoon. I played Wind Waker, Metroid. I own a GBA and play it almost everyday. I have the entire NES rom collection on my computer, along with SNES and play them routinely.

I do however realise that Halo is one of the greatest games out there in the current gaming world, and I do realise Nintendo is the best First-Party game producer out there at the same time. Think before you speak and take your fanboyism elsewhere.

I think Nintendo isent bad its games are good and it has a fairly good system.But i must say my utter hatred of there CEO's they are dumbasses.I mean they are siting on several games that would of been 100 times better with online play.I must disagry with whoever said onlile play is just a fad it is not because online multiplayer is almost as old as computer gameing.

When you think about it, Nintendo are beginning to show signs of deciding on a different market to Sony and Microsoft. Microsoft and Sony build multi-function entertainment machines, Nintendo build pure game consoles.

The Gamecube does have a few fine games: Metroid, Star Wars Rogue Leader, and MGS:TTS all are great games, and do show off the platform. I own a Gamecube for those games, but I personally prefer Xbox.

I feel that Xbox offers a great range of exclusive games, such as Riddick, Fable, KOTOR and Halo, and when I compare multi-platform versions of games, the Xbox version looks the cleanest. Also, the hard drive makes saving a lot easier, and saves me money which I would have to spend on memory cards. And the music saving function means it doubles up as a good jukebox, as well.

I do get a bit fanboyish about the GBA, though. Any console which allows gaming on the toilet cannot be dissed.

I really don't get fanboyism, however. How is it possible to be zealous about the activities of a big faceless corporation?

Nintendo is the most veteran and the best game developer

the red elite is a veteran too, but that didn't stop me from filling him up with a belly full of lead.

i didnt say bungie sucks. i like bungie when they made halo. RESPECT ME.it seems that you all are right and me dont. PLAY NINTENDO GAMES AND THEN I WILL GET YOUR OPINION


I have played nintendo games, in fact, they were what got me hooked on gaming about 12-13 years ago. Who can forget Super mario bros?

But the point is, that in MY opinion, Nintendo has lost sight of where gaming is going as an industry. They still seem to think gamers are little children, that dont want games with more mature themes and stories. Which is why Bungie has had my respect ever since I first played Marathon(about 10 years ago). Bungie seems to know that gamers sometimes want something a little more substantial than a 'jump on the monsters head and run around and collect coins' kind of experience. To be fair though, nintendo does make some games that have more depth than that. Just not enough to keep up.

Sure, Nintendo is great. I used to love their games. I still enjoy some of their games today.

However, in my opinion, Xbox is the best. Why, because of superior graphics, an overall better engine, and they still have awesome games. And of course, the most important feature, Halo, and soon to be Halo 2.

Nintendo has it's place, keep in mind it started roughly a century ago making card games. It keeps to that idea, making games that are much more about addictive entertainment value as opposed to story-heavy or visual-heavy games. For example, most everyone will be willing to sit and play some mario-kart, because it's a smooth not-too-intense simple easy game. Halo on the other hand is an adernaline rush on a disc, with semi-complex controls, and requires a decent resume of first person shooters to be skilled off the bat. For that reason, either people think Halo is awsome, or they think it sucks (prolly cause they suck!).

Remember though, that in order for Nintendo to be successful, (which i predict they will be), they cannot focus on the current trends in gaming, such as ridiculous graphics and online play. They do what they do incredibly well, perfectly in my opinion, and nobody could replace them. It is my hope that not only will they stay true to the oldschool style of gaming, but will become innovative in their game design, independant from state of the art graphics and the online play. The dual-screen for example, is them trying a different kind of innovation, one that will change not only the look and feel of games, but the way they are played. I'm looking forward to the next few years of nintendo. Just think of Wario World, if you haven't played it, than go play it. It's incredible.

The Huge Franchise Nintendo Is losing horiblly. After The leader of Nintendo specifically stated that GameCube was focusing on a kid based audience (forgot which gi) GameCube went down hill. Nintendo can only be remembered now as a classic. Nintendo is sadly losing, like their upcoming sequal to what!? Mario Party 7!? Only a few games are really good on the GameCube, which could have been put on the Xbox or PS2 to make them much better. The only real reason GameCube (I think) is still in the race because of their popular GameBoy Advanced. Unfortunately for them, the PSP (sony's new handheld) looks better, and more advanced (graphics wise) then the new gameboy. (woopdy doo, it has 2 screens) Even if the new gameboy is better, the PSP would still hurt the Nintendo Franchise. They should either sell out to the big boys, or get their asses in gear for the more mature audience.

the opinion of all experts of my country are that nintendo is the company who innovate and create more classes of videogames, and his games are not a simple very good graphics, his games have very good history and it all plays different, nintendo is in other level that good graphics or monotony

See, this is were you're wrong. (in my opinion) and what kind of third world country are you from anyway? Graphics on a handheld is actually to somepart important. It catches the eyes of the mature audiences. The little kids don't give a damn. Charts do say the Nintendo is going down hill. Fast. and if they don't get their act in gear, they are doomed like the Sega.

sony and microsoft losses money because he wants to sell more consoles with low prices

Better English please.
