Yay, Nintendo's birthday! ...actually, I think they've only been making games for... well, not that long. They actually started as a playing card/toy/hotel (well, no need to go further on the hotel part) company... first the playing cards though. :derpe:
Great Idea! Now I remove one of the pointless links on my signature. :Trollestia: Kidding. Depends if I have space to add another link. Anyways, Nintendo is old...
I haven't been up to date on Nintendo's games. I haven't played Super Mario Galaxy 2, Metroid: Other M (which I heard was crap), or Donkey Kong Country Returns, I've never played a Kirby Game, and the new Zelda game just doesn't interest me. Ah well...
Metroid: The Other M. Supposed to be a good game... but totally diverted from the original series. So, good as a single game by itself, but it made its fanboys cry. And that's unnacceptable. :derpe: But still, a good game. Just, noooot so much Metroid, as it is Ninja Gaiden... at least, that's what I'm guessing. Still, The rest of the games... all awesome, except for the new Zelda game, I don't know yet....
Yes, Nintendo first formed as a card company way, way back in 1889. They first made cards for a game called Hanafuda - which I've never played, but looks kind of interesting.
I love Nintendo so much. They may not have the best graphics in games, but they definitely have the best storylines when it comes to games, and that's a huge part of what makes a game amazing for me.
Actually... the graphics isn't a problem for the Wii games... Check this out, on dolphin emulator... [video=youtube;tRk9k9k6GCg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRk9k9k6GCg[/video] Very hi res, right? ^_^ Why the graphics don't seem so great usually... is the wii, cannot handle such Hi-res.
