You say that like if it would be a bad thing.
God, that trailer is too well made for an april fools prank, I was hoping in the last 10 seconds Link would go "WELL EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME PRINCESS!" in the most annoying way possible to have a punchline.
I optimistically hope, whether this movie is a big hit or not, that Nintendo will make an animated movie, or even an anime, out of Zelda. It's my favorite Nintendo franchise, so I want to see a lot more of it.
That's why this worked as a short fan movie. A Hollywood live-action interpretation will never work, like at all. Video game movies have proven to be shit with some exceptions (Uwe Boll's Postal and Paul WS's Mortal Kombat are good movies).
True, but it’s still a PS3 game that launched a few months before the PS4, that got a PS4 port only a year later when they could’ve just put it on the PS4 to begin with.
You mean the DRM that was scrapped and never actually added to the system?
tbf, it was only scrapped after the gaming populace said "FUCK NO".
Yes, that policy. That did not stop people in droves buying PS4s.
The PS3 had a higher player base than the then unreleased PS4. It was smart to wait a year to get the hang of the system while allowing it to grow as a console itself.

That movie bombing was probably a blessing in disguise. Nintendo is fine as a videogame company but the way things are going they will become Disney soon where videogames are only a minor part of what the multimedia empire does. Disney was once just an animation studio and was better at just that too.
I actually enjoyed the first Resident Evil film. It was pretty shit but I enjoyed that schlock as an early 2000s "turn your brain off and enjoy the stupid shit" type of movie. Kind of like those Underworld films.
Absolutely murdered by their competitor at the start of the gen because they were dumb enough to put a loaded gun on the table. It was the "$299" thing all over again.
The biggest misconception about the PS4 early dominance is that casual normies gave a shit about the Microsoft always online DRM bullshit and that's why they bought PS4.
This is what I’ve always hated the most about Sony. They don’t compete by propping themselves up through making unique and interesting experiences, they mainly just try to bring everyone else down. They and their fans live by the idea that it’s not enough to succeed, everyone else must fail. Say what you will about Sega talking shit in the 90s, but at least they had plenty of great exclusives to back up their aggressive marketing.
It cannot be overstated that the only good exclusive I’ve seen is Ratchet and Clank. Everything else has been either completely inane or full of caveats.
That’s hardly the same thing. Those franchises (minus Pokemon, but we’ve bitched about that enough already) are all once, maybe twice per generation, and they’re usually very different in how they play. Unless you want to really stretch it by counting spin-offs, but those are their own thing. Sometimes a series sells consistently well because it consistently puts out good games and there isn’t a deeper meaning.
The equivalent is a Nintendo youtuber who plays and pretends to like literally every Nintendo franchise because its his job. But beyond that, I don't really think such a person exists. And besides, we look down on Joe and Tyrone because they buy the same shit in a different box every year. If you think that Zelda and Mario play the same or even that, to pull an example, Mario 3D World and Mario Odyssey play the same, then you are a brainlet. Obviously Pokemon is the exception but when was the last fully new 3D Mario release? 2017. When was the last fully new Mario Kart? 2015. Zelda came out this year but only after a gap of six years. How is that cyclical. If it was your favorite series that took a six, seven or eight year break despite selling 50 million copies wouldn't you be pissed?
When you have an anime series, plushies, trading cards, and seventeen other kinds of merch for the new Pokemon region all set to release in 7 months, good luck trying to convince anyone to delay the game launch to actually put it in the oven longer. Retards are going to buy it no matter how shit it is and the sales figures after Scarlet/Violet's shitty launch has given GameFreak carte blanche to never give a fuck ever again. Not like they did care in the past decade anyways.
