Can we stop pretending that Pokémon is a bad spot just because people still lied and over exaggerated the quality of scarlet and violet for stupid reasons

When Nintendo acquires a studio, it's usually beneficial for the studio acquired rather than just the publisher. Either the studio is already so heavily tied to Nintendo that they are already Nintendo studios in a way like Next Level Games, or the studios are in the best position they've ever been because of Nintendo like with Monolith Soft

I've been playing since one and to this day splatoon fans get super excited when someone mentions us and our amazing trilogy of games :)

Because gamers are angry that Sony and Microsoft destroyed them.

Tbh Nintendo buying a studio is the least worst thing in the gaming community. Nintendo is the only one today who is not firing a lot of people and ending studios back to back.

I'm glad that Nintendo is rarely buying studios in the best way possible!👍 God, I hope Nintendo won't follow the same fate like how Sony, Microsoft, and Disney did. I want Nintendo to do better than Sony, Microsoft, and Disney! I also hope that Japan doesn't get infested by layoffs in the future.

acquisitions are bad long term as it decreases competition, and creative work within the industry and creates monopolies, Microsoft is slowly working their way into a gaming monopoly

It's because Nintendo doesn't buy up studios then destroy them. They bring talent into the fold essentially

Nintendo usually acquires studios when the studio is in need of it or they have had a long standing relationship with Nintendo to the point where people are shocked it wasn’t acquired by them at this point. This is probably why nobody really has a problem with it. Nintendo also wouldn’t just acquire a studio without giving them at least a few projects in hopes to create a fruitful outcome and Nintendo seems to be the only company that doesn’t shy away from new IPs that aren’t a cookie cutter copy of an existing one so it is likely that they will give these studios a chance to strut their stuff in the future.

My take: People are mad at Microsoft for trying to become a monopoly by buying these huge companies. Nintendo typically buys small studios. This is better, since it’s both an asset to Nintendo but also a safety net for these smaller studios. Bethesda or Activision function on their own, they do not need extra monetary support. Shiver was part of Embracer Group, which doesn’t need more money probably. However, instead of buying the entire group they just bought Shiver Entertainment.

Nintendo is just weird. Imagine not owning HAL labs, Fire Emblem or Pokémon. These companies could develop their biggest games for anyone else, but simply don't. Is there any kind of business that operates like this? If they do buy a company, they actually use their services and IP, unlike Microsoft barely using Rare IP.

Why IDK maybe because it's not a major studio and there not gutting the studio with massive payoff unlike Microsoft Sony 2K embracer take2 etc etc

The studio they acquired was on the way out. They are a simple port studio that mainly are known for Switch port... thats why people dont really care.

Remember how Nintendo scrapped Metroid Prime 4 because they were unhappy with the quality and they went back to Retro Studio like the fans wanted? The fans remember and that's why Nintendo gets a free pass.

I think Nintendo has the best leadership atm. They know they have a golden goose in their hands so they are very meticulous about everything. The Bandai purchase would be a huge swing that I think they don’t want nor need. Bandai is more than happy to work with Nintendo especially if the successor sells half a well as the current switch.

Honestly I'm personally shocked that Nintendo doesn't own game freak because who knows if Microsoft buys Game freak and completely kills the studio like how Microsoft did with rare

So what studio did they buy and why should I be angry about it? 🤣

We actually TRUST Nintendo with this stuff. Sony and Microsoft have proven themselves ABYSMAL when it comes to acquisitions

Bandi Namco is bigger then Activision blizzard behind the sense Nintendo would not want to deal with that. Bandi also dose music & anime production, Arcade machines, toys, and theme parks are just the surface.

Pretty simple IMO, we see microsoft buy up every studio under the sun and what happens? They don't get advertised properly like Hi Fi Rush and hellblade 2 (yes hellblade 2 is actually out and you'd be forgiven for not knowing that), and the studios are cannibalized for temporary influx of gamespass subscriptions only to be done away with when it actually comes time to support them like with Tango. You also have horrible leadership and management issues, redfall should have been cancelled as soon as the talent started leaving because the upper management was doing absolutely fuck all, but they still released that pigslop onto the market with a straight face. Sony bought out bungie and the only thing Ive heard is that bungie has basically made destiny 2 into a husk of what it used to be, the only other thing is that maybe some of the bungie people were helping on Concord, a Temu version of Overwatch that will be DOA cause everyone already hates it. Meanwhile, Nintendo has only bought 2 noteworthy companies in recent years which were next level games and this new one. Next level has repeatedly shown their worth with luigis mansion 3 and the mario strikers games (battle league sucked but it was clear that the talent wasnt the issue, it was very high quality just barren in the OG charm and gameplay options available). This new studio seems very prominent on their ability to port games like hogwarts legacy and mortal kombat 1 (Im aware that MK1 on switch is a meme but the fact that it even exists is still pretty impressive). Nintendo is selective and intelligent in what they buy; porting is a massive part of the switch's success and likely will be for the next system, so having competent port studios is important for them. Microsoft in comparison has 0 clue what they're doing other than pushing out gamepass which in turn means studios lose money and get the axe. I'm also absolutely definitely 100% not biased against microsoft or xbox... Not even one little bit👀

Probably because nintendo still sells sequels to the same ips they had when they first started basically even if they're not consistent like fzero is like the longest hiatus for an actual game to buy that I can think of and they will cut leadership pay instead of firing people unlike sony and xbox who trash whole studios and ips due to minor issues like not meeting sales expectations exact everytime or not getting pointless awards that Mean absolutely nothing compared to people buying the games

Who did nintendo buy?

I don't think it was purely bias that people were against the bethesda deal I didn't like it because of the sportsmanship of it all. It felt like Microsoft was trying to buy success. Outspending you opponent is so slimely you have to get ftc approval. Microsoft buying studios will always feel hallow.

I'm a leftist, so I have hot takes on this topic, hot takes that I believe everyone here would hate, and by extension would hate me.

I will push back on Bandai Namco on the sole reason that, you do not understand the scale at which Bandai Namco operates. If its some of the Gaming Studios that Bandai has, then maybe sure but the entire company would be detrimental to both Nintendo and health of Japanese Media. Maybe if Bandai is no longer interested in development of Video Games in general that would be fine but you forget the Animation Side, the Merchandise Side and other Businesses Bandai Namco a large conglomerate has that would not be useful for Gaming but they would also acquire Bandai's Baggage of owning/having the contract of a lot of things and mismanagement of those IPs.

Nintendo losing Rare felt like a mistake regardless of the outcome given how they are viewed now a days and it’s not nice. The same can be said for intelligence systems and how Nintendo let them down. Regardless of the reasons not to. I mean they helped Nintendo expand their gaming base and this is the thanks they got for their efforts ?

Important context regarding the Square Enix, Sega and PlayStation layoffs: most, if not all, of those layoffs came for development and PR positions within Western subsidiaries those companies own and operate.

Could you imagine Nintendo giving Bandai the keys and just letting them go full send on a pokemon project from a development standpoint???

Hit the nail on the head! Personally my biggest concern with Nintendo growing has always been growing too fast and losing what makes Nintendo Nintendo. So while it's exciting when they add new studios I'm okay with them keeping a slower pace.

Nintendo is just smart with aquistions yeah I am not a fan of it sometimes since Microsoft proves that but Nintendo knows what they are doing.

It's time bois Nah, I don't believe so. Maybe they could benefit from more partnerships, but I don't think acquisitions and/or mergers are really the way to go long term. Typically Ninty sees people rather than a company, so if they acquire the company and the people who were once there no longer are, what do they have? #OnlyRespondedToTheTitle

A well put together video, I like seeing someone else as passionate about this series as I am. I also have some thoughts on the Metroid being done by Mercury steam because it seemed like Konami thought it was a good idea to team up with Mercury steam and launch the Lords of shadows series and completely sideline Iga, and it tanked... bad, at least in my eyes, but then they were handed Metroid, and when Dread came out, I thought it was an absolutely amazing game, I could not believe that the games were made by the same studio. My friend (who is also a Golden sun and a Metroid fan) kept putting playing it off for about a year, but when when he did buy it, he was like "I don't know why I didn't buy this sooner."

Are people really still lying About scarlet and violent being rough at launch............. You must really think a low of people if you think they're that dumb to believe that nonsense all this time later

i thought you were gonna talk about the things they share such as the purple coins the kingdoms the non-toad inhabitants such as the people of tostarena kingdom and the new donk citizens (and poplins of the flower kingdom) the different enemies the map (well it’s a different map but ok) the fact that these only apply to these 2 games

That last game concept for Home is similar to something I keep wishing for as a bit of a dream pitch New Pokemon Stadium - Every Pokemon - Every gimmick - Every battle style, single, double, triple, inverse, etc. - Tournaments can be run with limitations and restrictions, or none if wanted. - Central hub for competitive - Made by Bandai Namco - Has a Metronome Mode Really enjoying these video's of yours as I go on a bit of a binge quest. Awesome work

I think that Legends as its own series is perfectly fine imo. It follows a much more liberal approach to whatever the game is about, I think so long as the core series runs alongside it then it's sort of a points of having your cake and eating it too. The premise of Arceus was essentially the foundation of Modern Sinnoh which means that a lot of the things that we associate with a modern Pokemon game wouldn't be available either way.

I'd like to see a prequel. Let us play out the events that led to the extinguishing of the lighthouses.

2024 so far has been the perfect “backlog year” to go back finish games or relive some older games or try some fan games. Nintendo is likely cooking behind on the scenes on something so it’ll come when it comes is kinda at the point I’m at 😎

I have just been playing my backlog this year

Someone needed to say it and I’m glad you did. “Rumor” videos and forums have just become an echo chamber for wish lists, then rinse and repeat. New games would be exciting to see, and I would be thrilled to see Metroid Prime 4, or a port/remake of Pokémon Gold & Silver. But I have more than enough games I already enjoy, or haven’t played yet that don’t make me feel obsessed or upset about Nintendo’s lack of news, like a lot of other people are.

At this point Metroid 6 or a Remake of Super Metroid will be out before Prime 4.

I'm hoping to hear about Metroid Prime 4 in June since thats when Nintendo usually announces there big first projects.

I'm sure you are going to have a blast playing older Pokemon games. It's always cool to see how far the games have come compared to today. If you stream at all on UA-cam I would love to watch some of your play times. On the back log part, I have so many games that I have been playing. I beat my first JRPG on PS2 not long ago. Xenosaga and working on the 2nd one nao. I had the first game for over 10 years and I just pushed through and somehow beat it xD hahahaha but as we speak, I'm playing Blue Dragon on my Xbox 360 another game that I had for soooo long that I still haven't beaten and love. It's great to go back into game you didn't really give a real shot and see if you like them. I hope you do that even if you don't make videos about it. :3
