The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Well, here is a place where devoted Nintendo fans can concisely voice their views on what Nintnedo should do - realisticly of course, to improve sales, market profile (i.e in FHM, Mace Griffin is not on Cube, and there are no Cube ads, despite an excellent GBA SP one, and it says 'the millions they have lost on Gamecube' about Ninty) and most importantly dispel the ridiculous anti GC attitude.
I mean, Game Boy has a great name, but both the N64 and now the Cube (to a lesser but still worrying amount) are seen as rubbish.
Outline your proposals here. Petition anyone? Meh.....

When I get PSO I will be getting the modem and paying the damn fees.

Erm. I want Nintendo to push for more fulfilling multiplayer in their games? I also want these games to be amazing in one-player too (Think Halo or PSO).
I want to play the main game of F-Zero with 2 or more players (if this IS do-able then I will be glad, if not BOO! Hiss! etc).

I'm a nintendo fan. But I got into Nintendo stuff through Goldeneye. I want my games to look cool, shake an amazed/flabberghasted response out of me, and most importantly I want them to play well, have a multiplayer option and have good longevity.
I rate Mario 64 as a good game, but I would not buy it. I don't like platformers, I like adventure games, first person shooters and original multiplayer games.
This is why all 14 of my GC games I want to keep are multiplayer, this is also why I CANNOT STAND Rogue Leader and want to get shot of ASAP.
Pikmin appeals to me but would I purchase it over Lost Kingdoms? No.
Why? Because Lost Kingdoms has a 2 player mode.
I haven't even got around to buying Zelda yet. Because I'm too busy playing Brute Force in single player AND co-operatively.
All my GC games have multiplayer which is distanced from the main game. I want some games where you play through the mian game with 2+ player and I want it now!!! (PSO will be my next order by the way - more of this stuff please!)

Another point to make would be to get some more games online and get an online system flowing properly. One game online after four months of the console having online capabilities is horrendous.

I'm sure "we nintendo fans" are quite happy with what we're getting from Ninty. However, everyone who owns a PS2 instead o a Cube obviously aren't.

A good balance of adult and less adult games would be good.
Yes but do we want mature/adult games? I myself being a Nintendo fan, have to say I don't care whether my games are adult or not. When I want adult entertainment I go to the cinema.
