    And in one sentence you’ve completely encapsulated the reason why Nintendo is terrified of emulators.

      And they still remake the same handful of games every couple years. We JUST got a new Mario Party that looks identical to the previous two. The only different ones are probably Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

      I don’t think I’ll ever understand Nintendo fanboys that replay essentially the same shit with a slightly different skin on it.

        Nostalgia is a strong force. Nintendo is very good at capitalizing on it.

        (for the switch)

        The first Mario Party felt like a scam. Such a rip-off.

        The 2nd Mario Party felt like what it should have been all along.

        The 3rd Mario Party should have been a free DLC for the 2nd game.

        Every single 3D Mario game has been a significant innovation over the previous one, except for Mario Galaxy 2

      If this was the reason then they’d be trying to sell us these old games again…but they’re not outside of their shitty subscription service that offers a few games that nobody wants.
