America is full of assholes?
No no... not that one. The other one.
I swear that article was linked or mentioned here before. I'm pretty sure I remember reading it. It's a solid article, if not acerbic.
I don't think I understand this statement, though, unless it's made to insinuate that more people believe that games are designed with the intent to make the player use the Continue function. I guess it all depends what backlash you're referring to.Quote:

There's nothing to prove that Nintendo's lack of challenge in platforming games (or any of its games for that matter) has any effect on other developers and where they set the challenge level for their products. The "domino effect" in that premise is dildos.
I still don't see how a debate over how difficult Nintendo's games are is pertinent to the original post.
Those two gooks made no comparison of how difficult they think NSMB Wii is to some other specific game - they merely explained their theory behind one aspect of the game's design.
What the debate should be about is the statements they made in that explanation.
That wouldn't be very TNL of us all.
No, no precedent exists at all. No one followed Nintendo's lead when shoe-horning game-detracting waggle shit into their games either.Quote:

Anyone copying Nintendo needs to learn to come up with their own ideas.
There were no third party launch games of any import. Real publishers are doing that shit now.Quote:
