Are you all children?
Check dis. Banjo kazooie- Little kids cutesy game
Pokemon Stadium- Pokemon explains itself. It is sad and if you can argue with little multicoloured rats using lttle attacks on each other being for adults, then i'll throw my PS2 out of the window.
Zelda- A little dwarf. Violece, yeah, but it's not as adult as Final Fantasy.
Kirby- A little pink ball.....
mario- A cute little plumber, who walks around killing little turtles and little plants.
Donkey Kong- Another cute thing
And there are loads more.....
Ok, so you can argue. Turok, Perfect Dark and Goldeneye are all adult. But that's only 3 games. I suggest you grow up and buy a PS2

OK everyone, enough.
Asher gets the point.
What he said in the topic was incredibly stupid but he's learnt from it, there's no need to go on, and on, and on, and on.
Now he ought to know that just because games like Conker have swearing and violence, it doesn't make them more mature than say Mario or Zelda.
He also now understands that it's the depth of Gameplay that counts, not whether the graphics is cutesy.
Let's all forget it now as I bet most of us have made similar mistakes like saying the PS2 is "nothing but sequels."
It's these stereotypes which you should learn to avoid.
Yes, the Nintendo might LOOK like a kiddies machine at times with a few cartoony games but a proper gamer should know better than that.
Yes, the PS2 was covered in sequels and unoriginality for a month or two but it's got its act together now and has some interesting titles coming up and a proper gamer should know that.
Lets all bring down stereotypes together!

Yo Edgy, it's Dark Mark! It's Shigeru Miyamoto, not Shiguru Miyamoto. Sorry, but a rocket scientist's job is never done.

Yeah, i got it!!!!
I cleared this up then prats like you start it up again.

Sorry, but Asher D you are an idiot. Nintendo, fair play to yourself, does have cute games on their consoles. But, what console doesn't? You can't honestly say that the PSOne, PS2, Dreamcast (which is cool!) and the upcoming XBox don't have any games aimed at young children or featuring cutesy characters. There's absolutely nothing wrong with games featuring cute characters, especially if the game is challenging and fun to play (think Banjo-Kazooie). I am assuming, due to the fact you own a PS2, that you own(ed) a PSOne, which also has many childrens' games. eg
Action Man
Bugs and Taz
Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time
Chicken Run
Croc
Croc 2
Donald Duck: Quack Attack
Flintstones: Bedrock Bowling
Frogger 2
Hello Kitty's Cube Frenzy
Digimon World
Teletubbies (why?)
You get the idea. I could have gone through Special Reserve's entire PSOne catalogue but I have less time on my hands than some people. My point is that every console will always have kiddy / cutesy games on it, because if they didn't, the console companies wouldn't be appealing to a wide enough market - mainly because more kids than adults play computer games.

No, no, no. Teletubbies is just one game.
But there are adult games 4 N64. I mentioned that ages ago. Geez.
