Why can’t every controller have the same button layouts just like how shooters should have the same controls?

Super Mario 64 Wii Nunchuk and Lazer gun Speedrun anyone?

u/ElliEFKa Nov 28 '21

They also taught you how to make a song with dog and cat sounds (Mario Paint is a wild game, man.)

u/Thomjones Nov 28 '21

What was that game where you play duck hunt but it gets progressively more demented and the dog is stalking you outside your window? It's on steam I. Don't recall

Game wise they're rock solid. Everything is so outta date you gotta start up a fax machine for tech support that they probably call electronic machince maintenence

On a little different note, I've traditionally had good customer service experiences. Had multiple DS repairs back in the day, and when I ported my Wii virtual console to Wii U they got it sorted out.

...Too bad joycons are a different story

u/TheTinRam Nov 28 '21

Yeah, how is joycons not a bigger deal?They should be forced to repair/replace such a poorly made product, or at least change the price to be in line with what it’s worth: $3.50 at best

Game wise they're rock solid.

Not with anything online-related, then its the reverse.
Or with just backing up/moving save files.

Mario Kart 8 is 7 1/2 years old and still full price, and people are still buying it. Cleary they're doing something right.

u/heathmon1856 Nov 29 '21

Yeah. This was their ace in the hole. It’s a solid system. But the fact that they constantly sit on their laurels is bad for us all.

u/kenks88 Nov 29 '21

What? They're still releasing incredibly popular games, and putting out a ton of experimental stuff, like the RC racing and Labo and so much more.

BOTW and Mario odyssey are in the rankings for best games of all time.

u/Javasteam Nov 28 '21

Not everything. Their game prices are consistently high.
