"Nintendo ---- Boring??"

Do you think nintendo are boring? I mean, I own a Gamecube, an SP and yet I still feel that the games are relatively poor and extra hardware is Scarce. I personally think that they need new games and not just sequels or prequels. What do you guys think?

AM2 aren't really my cup of tea, they make games that have a massive amount of money pumped into them and they are far bigger than AV.

Then again it is not as if AM2 don't develop for the Gamecube, Virtual Fighter Quest is set to change that.

It is sad that Nintendo don't seem to have AM2 or Smilebit on their side as they only release a few of their more odd titles for the Gamecube. I wouldn't mind Shenmue and I'd kill for Jet Set Radio.

But Nintendo still have the support from Sonic Team and Amusement Vision... and although far from brilliant... they both help fill the hole left by RARE along with Retro Studio's of course.

As Cherita Chen would say: "Chut Up".

I agree they need more games

And Overworks were always better than AM2. Skies was one of the finest games ever to come out of Sega.

But now Overworks don't exist anymore.

Shows how much knowledge of Sega you can glean from surfing Nintendo websites ;-)

For the record AM2 were always superior to AV in every way. VF4: Final Tuned baby...! Yeah!

AV have announced nothing and are probably working on Gamecube software.

Probably will be re-jiggled yes.

What are AV doing now?

I heard the teams are getting re-jigged because of the Sammy merge.

Truth be told, recent SEGA titles are very dissapointing. The SEGA team who are still on constant form are Amusement Vision. Monkey Ball and F Zero are wonderful titles.

Yeah, but those three weren't officially released on the Dreamcast and there were literally tons of other worthwhile games available for the PSX.

Hehe. :-)
No one said it was the best either, although it probably trounced Luigi's Mansion. :-)

As great as Monkey Ball and Soccer Slam are, I still wouldn't choose them over Smash Brothers or Pikmin.
But each to their own. :-)
