New Nintendo

[TecmoGuy]

Its no secret that Nintendo markets their games toward the younger demographic.

Its no secret that the WB markets toward the Teeny Bopper Demographic

Its no secret that I used to watch GIlmore Grils in the first season

I also enjoyed the Pokemon Cartoon for a bit

I didn't say anything about gore, I just like playing games that aren't as cartoony

I'm a complete retard.

Yes, but I'll have to get one just so the wife can play the new Zelda game.

Wow, that's the same reason I bought the game cube.  I never expected a married woman to share in my Zelda nerdery.

I agree with Nightwulf as well.  Nintendo focuses on the fun factor for most of their games, rather than realism or violence.  That's why the new controller's so wacko, it's an innovation that supposed to make gaming more fun.

No, but it is a well-established myth by idiots who think that any game without one or more 'mature' themes is by definition a 'kiddie' game.

I love how every "omg nintendo's a kiddie company!" idiot ignores all non-"cartoony" games that appear on Nintendo's hardware, and ignores every "cartoony" game that appears on non-Nintendo hardware.

I know little about gaming systems, but have heard the same stuff (I think a lot of this is due to the lack of sports titles, but really I have no clue).  I've got a GameCube that my wife plays Zelda on, the only game we have that I play is Pac-Man/Dig Dug/Pole Position/Galaga combo. 

Are there some very good games that you recommend?  Not that I will actually buy any, but I may.

I think Pikmin is my choice for "highly underrated game that people think is 'cartoony'." Then again, I haven't really bought a new game in like 3 years, so maybe there's a better one.

Unless you can find Pikmin for like ten bucks, I don't know that I'd recommend buying it. It's a fantastic game, but it's short. Give it a rent.

I am an idiot because I don't play nintendo

Half right, if my really fast skimming is correct...they offered old NES games, but you can't play them online...I think that was part of the argument. Too lazy to look...
