Pun intended?

Dude you just know. You just KNOW, that if Nintendo got capcoms old IP's, ALL the talent would come back to them.WydrA, on 18 Jun 2014 - 12:05 AM, said:
In other words the devs are probably wishing for this almost as hard as the fans.

I didn't really understand that analogy lol
And like I said before, you don't have to read it, I just don't think people shouldn't comment on it if they decide not to.
Glad to hear that
Don't worry, I wasn't referring to you. Honestly I don't really care what people's opinions on the article are too much as long as they've actually given it a fair read.
IIRC the two people i suspected most heavily of actually reading the article were Chrop and you. My only doubt about your post was that you mentioned the Sony fan thing. In the context it was brought up in previously, it was pretty clear it was in reference simply to the title, and by the time I was at the bottom of the page (where your post was) I was angry speed reading, so I didn't really see that you were talking about how his view appealed to a certain demographic, I mostly just saw the Sony thing. That's probably the reason I forgot to add you as an exemption
though i actually think it targets the Sony fan demographic and Nintendo fan equally since Nintendo fans are prone to quick on it out of anger/outrage/interest in the writer's view. Also I think it's good that the Sony fan demographic is so heavily targeted because one of the messages you could take from the article is that people who think that are wrong, and there's nothing wrong with fully grown people who play Nintendo games, and it seems a lot of people in that demographic need to hear that message.
Anyway, I went back and selected the posts that I haven't directly responded to that seemed to scream to me "I haven't read this article" most strongly, so hopefully there isn't further confusion:

I didn't say I'd seen the quotation here, I just said I've seen it before, and i have. Also I purposely said that people using it only to support their habits was a discussion for another day because I didn't think it applied to the current topic. If I'd thought otherwise i would have gone further into it.
And no C.S Lewis might not be the most famous write of all time, or even his time, but he is still relatively well known, and as I said I have seen this quotation before. All I'm saying is people will say this to support say, their playing of Nintendo games, and then go bash people for some other thing they enjoy that they consider "childish". I'm pretty certain that has happened sometime in history before, even if C.S Lewis isn't the most famous of authors.
I think there's been a misunderstanding here. I wasn't debating the truth of the quotation at all, it is incredibly true and probably one my favourite quotations, i was simply saying it's often misused. I agree with everything you said about the Nintendo is kiddy campaign and movements of similar nature.
I disagree with this whole thing about trying to prove you're in the right to talk about something based off the title. Yes, Zinix only named the thread after the title, but he also posted the link to the article.
The thread is obviously supposed to be a discussion about the article, that's why the article was posted. So coming into the discussion having only read the title is inexcusable, whether or not you think it's clickbait, because you don't have any actual proof of that. Either read the article so you can actually add to what the discussion is supposed to be about or move along is what I think.
I mean what everyone has done here is essentially equivalent to showing up to a book club and saying "Oh no, i didn't read to kill a mockingbird, but I can tell you it was stupid because some people need to kill mockingbirds."
Sure you sound perfectly reasonable to anyone who has not actually read the required material, but to anyone who has, you just sound dumb. In other words... the strawman argument.
I'm not saying you have to read an article that you think is clickbait.. You can make the choice not to, and it's just that; your choice. But don't then go to the thread about the article and throw it off the rails by posting your uninformed opinion of it. And that's not just aimed towards you, but everyone in this thread except for Chrop apparently (he's the only one who I get the impression actually read the article honestly).

I saw that post, and I've already seen the quotation numerous times. People love to post it only when it supports their "childish" habit, but that's a discussion for a different day.
It isn't applicable as an argument to what this guy is at all. Once again, he is talking about what society says about people who are over 30 that play nintendo games. He is, in NO way saying those people are right. In fact he says that nintendo games are quality, and a defense to the "video games are bad because violence" argument because people play them and still have massive amounts of fun without any of that dark and gritty stuff.
The guy does not say ONE negative thing about Nintendo, OR ITS GAMERS. All his statements about these two subjects are either neutral or positive.

They actually explicitely provide the parts to make the shulk shown in your avatar. It was made using the create a character.I wonder how many Xenoblade fans will recreate Shulk as best they can. Despite my X Shulk avatar I will go more for the dude we saw in last years Trailer walking towards the mech.

The thing I hate the most about this artical is... he's right
No matter what evidence we have against game haters, we lose because they can't accept facts, it's like having a creationist vs evolutionist debate. You can't win.
At the same time it's not misleading.

Pretty sure Japan has laws that prevent foreign companies from purchasing Japanese companies.

Capcom does have some great IP, but i fear they would be too expensive for a company that has been losing money 3 years straight.
If possible, a question would arise: would Capcom`s talent stay within the company or go somewhere else?

I sure hope Nintendo buys them out and proceed to un-cancel Megaman Legends 3.

No one is saying Dragon Quest is trying to have a deep storyline. Was just saying how the online could work similar to how DQIX worked or a different mode altogether.

http://forums.guru3d...ad.php?t=390114She's enabling features from the engine.CoD blops did this too, disabling things it could support.I'd imagine pretty much every third party game does this now, for some reason.
If they enabeled all this for the wiiu version I might get it, but doubt it.

Okay no defending Ubisoft this time.
Oh and I guess the reason Publishers rank pc last due to piracy...as far as I know its much easier to pirate PC games than console games . A clear example is watchdogs.....Watchdogs pirated versions appeared even before launch.
