    Simply pure faggotry.
    Why is it considered hypocritical to join a Nintendo site if you hate Nintendo? There are a lot more boards here that are geared towards other systems, so it shouldn't matter anyways. If it was a direct Nintendo forum, I would understand, but there are discussions here that can talk about the PS3 and Xbox, so it shouldn't be no big deal.

    Anyways, have to go with the NAUGHTY DOG. Crash Bandicoot and Jax and Dexter kicks asssssss.

    Never said it was hypocritical. I said it was contradictory to join a forum for a company that you don't enjoy. Semantics state that contradictory is the opposite of something or contrary, hence contradiction. It's just a bit backwards to join a forum called Nintendo Forums when you don't enjoy the company.

    Then that would mean he should go talk about that kind of stuff at the other boards ... where he finds himself much more comfortable. Not to mention that then there should be the incentive of just posting in the other consoles thread.

    Nintendo - has gone way down hill in the recent years, making games for the younger ages, leaving the older in the dust.
    Sega - has never been that good, imo. The only game I ever enjoyed I think was super monkey ball, and thats when I was little. They have always made garbage games imo. I dislike Zelda especially.
    With what you said about Nintendo ... that's just so ... conceited, when what you're talking about is the shovelware that's made by other companies for Nintendo, the games that the company makes itself are appealing to all, Nintendo is all about fan services.

    Sega did not make the Zelda series ... and it's one of the best video game series ever made (if not the best).
    I don't know if you made a typo or something instead of typing Sonic, but I think you've got your facts wobbly.


    Nintendo HAS left older gamers in the dust (in my opinion), instead of getting decent games , they have been releasing garbage games.
    And Zelda sucks balls (in my opinion. Don't get fired up because I disagree.) And my mistake about putting Zelda under Sega. Put Sonic there instead.


    Your ignorance was proven as soon as you put "Zelda" and "Sega" together. But sure, that's a mistake. However, I don't see how you can make a case for Nintendo abonding "hardcore gamers". Sure, Nintendo has taken steps in new directions (see Wii Fit, Wii Music, Wii Sports, etc.), but they've pumped out plenty of "hardcore" titles since the Wii. Look at SSBB, LoZ: TP, and Metroid Prime 3. The soon to be released Metroid: Other M as well. Plus, New Super Mario Bros Wii was one of the toughest Mario sidescrollers EVER. Third party devs are making "hardcore" games for the Wii as well: Madworld, No More Heroes and Muramasa are just a couple. I also find it amusing that you have no info on Square Enix and voted for EA.

    I dislike the Zelda games as well, but I have to admit that they are GOOD games.

    This was a not so great poll, to say the least.

    Activision?
    Blizzard Entertainment?
    Bungie? - That's questionable.
    Capcom?
    Game Freak?
    Infinity Wa- nevermind...
    Konami?
    Neversoft?
    etc.etc.etc.etc.etc...
    I could guarantee you that those companies would barely make a difference in the poll, because in my opinion (and probably almost everyone else), those companies don't rank up ro the ones I listed.


    Valve.

    Your argument is invalid.

    I vote for Nintendo.

    @the quote by usmessi posted above- All of them "rank up" to the four you put. Even the now defunct Infinity Ward.

    Just a side note: "Best" is often shown through sales. What video game company has sold the most games? By Franchise, Nintendo takes both First and Second with the Mario series (222 million) and Pokemon Series (207 million) with tetris coming in third. (Which could be counted for Nintendo as well, as most of the sales from tetris come from Nintendo consoles - GB/GBC specifically.) Most of Nintendo's franchises pass the 40 million units sold mark. Hell, Wii Sports as a stand alone title is the best selling game ever, with over 60 million units sold. I'd say EA for second, but it turns out Maxis is the company that actually developed the series, so more than 8/10th's of the money made off of the Sims comes from Maxis, not EA blackbox (the current developer for the newer games.)

    If you're going by "who made the most money" I don't know the exact answer, but I know for a fact Activison Blizzard is high up on that list as of current.
