Arlo lost all my respect when he celebrated Alpha Dream's probably death because he can't let go of Thousand Year Door. Thousand Year Door is inferior to its original 64 counterpart and I have always personally preferred Mario and Luigi. I emphasized with those that wanted a new PM in the original style but that got lesser and lesser when PM fans decided to take it out on M+L games and made sure I felt like absolute garbage for daring like M+L. He keeps proudly acting like everything needs to be like his nostalgia which makes him blind to the reality of success Nintendo is having in the present.
nintendo has made A LOT of bone head decisions just because, they don't make brilliant financial moves at every turn
I would have thought his demographic would skew a bit younger given he's a puppet.
A lot of his stuff is about the "good ol days", Gamecube era nostalgia. Overall narrow range of interests in genres and IPs outside of key Nintendo franchises, which you only have to dig through his channel to see that and how it's repeating extensively. So he caters well to those 30 somethings who are the same as him, who have never branched out beyond the big Nintendo IPs.
And a valid one sometimes, for instance playing MGS4 without having played the first three would be incredibly dumb
I feel like a lot of Nintendo games are like that too. My first Pikmin game was 3, and I never felt like I was left in the dark. Their games are very often their own self contained thing.
Which companies do remasters better? SE are amongst the very best. When Type 0 released, actually adding improved character models was unheard of, most just bumped textures and resolutions and that's it. I'd go as far as saying back when it released it was the most effort any PS remaster had received. Then you've got the FFX and FFXII remasters which again go as far as adding new character models, completely re-doing the UI. The Kingdom Hearts remasters which include everything in the series so far. The recent Chocobo's Dungeon remaster added tons of new content, re-directed cutscenes and added new VA. The upcoming Crystal Chronicles remaster is doing the same. Yes the FFVIII remaster sucked, but it was the exception. Chrono Trigger isn't even a remaster but even if it was it was only shit because it's on PC which SE don't care about. And now with the updates it is objectively the best version of the game by far.
This is a massive assumption to make, and again it's one other companies have gone on record saying they disagree with. What are you basing this on? Because your whole point revolves around the idea that new fans wouldn't want to play older games in the series.
Nothing more to say. Nintendo are proud of their legacy and past games but ultimately this is a business decision and they very clearly made the right call.
Nintendo has made a lot of bone headed decisions, no doubt. Framing that as "they did those just because" is armchair analyst message board bs. They're a gigantic company, they don't do things just because. Whether right or wrong, they make decisions based on something not just because they feel like it.
I knew you'd be hear complaining and watching another Arlo video, yet you constantly moan and groan how you don't like him. For someone you don't like you seem to love watching his videos still and complaining about the same thing in his topics.
Oh, I haven't seen this video, I've just watched the comments here.
The attitude you describe doesn't exist here? It's a legitimate argument that Nintendo knows their own business better than a YouTuber with a muppet.
