Were you not going ape shite about old Metroid games?

i have friends for whom the ps3 and ps4 are dust collectors and not because they sucked (ps3 had so many crazy good games) but because life changes for people.


I highly doubt this adult market you are talking about is jumping at the bit to play the more childish themed games of Nintendo.

That is not me hating on Nintendo games themes because I highly enjoy them. But none of my older friends who can't be bothered to touch a ps4 or xbone at home anymore would be caught dead playing a Zelda game in public on the move.

Kind of where the playing the Switch in a bar joke comes from.

yup

it took me 7 months to play the prime series, and i did skyrim while wife worked and i had off over holidays...i haven't touched that since. Metroid 2 pissed my wife off too

and also proving i'm not just a Nintendo fanboy...i discovered Metroid at 32

it's not apples to apples, but its not apples to oranges either...but the nes classic was the sleeper hit. no one talked about it that much, no tv ads, and they flew off shelves. surprise surprise, the people i know with dust collecting ps3s, 4s and xbox whatevers...have nes classics or expressed interest in the form of "i can't find one"/"where can i find one"

i have one friend whose gaming habits haven't changed with marriage and a kid...no interest.
