....our favourite console company has gone all childish for Gamecube, the constant torment we have recieved about Nintendo being kiddy has become more of a reality than ever. Nintendo claim that games like Zelda Orcarina of time and Mario 64 was so big that only dedicated gamers ever reached the end.
So know games will be shorter and easier to play, gah! We still have Resident Evil and Sega to deliver the goods but Nintendo have freely admitted that their biggest titles, Mario, Zelda etc are now going to be much easier and more accesable to children and whats their excuse? They say children are Nintendos biggest audience so are looking to 'corner the market.'
This could lead to bigger better things as a whole in the future but for now it will ruin games like Zelda for me, at least a lot more games will be released a lot more often now. Don't go explaining how we have Pikmin or listing all adult games Gamecube had bu ti'm just saying that giving shorter versions of Zelda takes something away from it, no more 60 hours plus wasted on video gaming a small 30 - 40 now.
P.S I hope this causes controversy about Nintendo not being childish.

NINTENDO, NINTENDO, NINTENDO,
when will you ever learn? Please, this is a plea and I hope it is taken seriously. DO NOT MAKE ANYMORE RUBBISH KIDDY GAMES (well not for Europe anyway). I think that if Ninty want to make easy games for their Japanese customers, fine, but I need a good 70+ hour game to keep me entertained. I'm sure Myamoto (????) doesn't want to be stuck making games that are going to be completed in an afternoon. Let him make his epics and ship them to Europe and the US only. Please don't deprive us of our Mario and Zelda cravings. I NEED A GOOD GOOMBA STOMPING.
Take a leaf from Rare's book. Make games that attract a new audience. If you continue to let Sony dominate the young adult market, they'll swamp you, and neither you nor I want that. Do it for the sake of our sanity. Do it for the innocent (or not so innocent in some cases) teenagers, who love a good blood splatter. You know the ones where you can see what kind of work the cleaners will have to cope with in the morning.
That's a point. Ninty, I've just come up with the solution to all your problems. A new mario game, called : MARIO GOES MENTAL WITH AN M4A1 SD. Ah, genius. Watch Peach, Luigi and Bowser try to retrain Mario in the opening cutscenes, before Mario breaks free and kills them all with a kiwi fruit and a Jacob's cracker. I can see the reviews now............ Complete carnage 'NGC Magazine', Mario's off his rocker 'Edge' and so on. It'll be so good it'll be ported over to PC and the addon, Luigi's revenge will come out as a download!!!!!!!!!
Ah, I can see it now. I'll take over Nintendo and give all of you gamers what you really want, Blood, guts and Bowser gibbs.. Damn 'attendants' always meddlin with my thoughts.
So you'll all support me in my quest for world domin--- Oh, sorry, I've got to go now, It's light out time at the institute. BYE

Why do nintendo have to change Total kiddish when they were just getting to a point they just started to release some good games for older people.
I already know that Nintendo went all childish, that's why I turned to the dark side...
yeah, blummin foreigners spoiling our games... Oh wait! they make most of em...
(this argument is flawed...)
Anyway, Ninty won't do this with all games/ franchises so don't despair. Anyway, an easier game isn't NECESSARILY a shorter game. Just as a shorter game isn't always an easier game. So there.
Nintendo still rule, and... other stuff is still good. Oh and Rare will still make the longest and hardest games around, and then the Japs won't like them because they can't win them!!!

You shouldn't judge Zelda until its been released!
Also, it's a well known fact that the Japanese like short games because they like to feel good about themselves once they've finished a game! That's why some games are made shorter than they could be made!
