It's clunky and the novelty wears off quickly, but it was worth a play.

Referring to all Nintendo games.

Dunno man, it is possible to accept they make good games while still condemning their corporate bs...

But.... they don't. Their games are old the minute they're released. Sure they have enough bare minimum charm to wow the masses, but when you truly take a skeptical and honest eye to them compared to many other games, you realize how lazy they are with the copy/paste approach most of the time, inability to add basic common niceties of modern gaming, and generally lacking worlds that feel unfinished.

If it weren't for the IP name recognition, most of their games would be panned as meh.

I maintain a stance that the only reason they're still around is because of brand recognition. Literally the only reason I could think of anyone liking their slop.
