Re: PlayStation Congratulates Nintendo on Zelda Success

@anonsinnerman Hardly. I love a lot of Nintendo games. I love Metroid, Pokemon and I really enjoy Smash and Mario Kart. It's the fact with every Mario/ Zelda game they are declared the second coming of christ. I really do think it's a case of rose tinted glasses and nostalgia for many reviewers. As they likely played these games when they were growing up.

I'm not doubting their quality one bit. They are probably fantastics games. I just don't into all the critical acclaim they recieve.

@Bri-Die I started with Ocarina of Time because it's the Zelda game people talk about the most. I wasn't particularly aiming it at Zelda. It's just the game of the moment lol. I feel the same about Mario games.

Take for example the Galaxy games. While fun games I feel they are far from the masterpieces they are made out to be.

@kyleforrester87 Sorry I only skimmed through the comments. Must have missed yours lol. My bad. I can probably say hand on heart the only Nintendo franchise I properly enjoy is pokemon. I don't know why but I'm just a sucker for Pokemon games.

Is it just me or does anybody else feel Nintendo games get a free pass a lot of the time. Particularly Mario and Zelda. While I believe Mario games are fun titles, I fail to see the adulation that are put on the games.

I've only played one Zelda game. Ocarina of time on the 3DS and while it was a good game. (8.5/10) In my opinion, many put it on this unreachable pedastal that no other game can ever reach.

Before anybody turns it into a Horizon V Zelda debate, I am putting on record I've not played either game yet. It just seems every single Nintendo release gets met with wide critical acclaim which I feel is a bit over the top. Don't get me wrong they are usually fantastic games but not to the level some people make out.

@JesWood13 Sounds like you got a faulty seagate. I used one of them on my launch ps4 and if anything I noticed a nice speed boost. Nothing major but easily noticeable. I also another seagate on my ps3. A 1TB if I recall. That was also another good purchase. Again no complaints. My ps3 rain much smoother with that compared to the default one.

Re: Pokémon Go Makes Nintendo More Valuable Than Sony

@stupidget Hardly. Nintendo as much as we mock them have a serious stable of franchises. The Pokemon games have been around for almost two decades at this stage and still have incredible pulling power. I will admit I'm a huge fan of the serious and I play Go a little bit when I'm out and about. It really is a fantastic idea and I can see it staying longer than a few weeks.
