No one replays the NSMB games and no one is going to replay Wonder. People will just replay SMB3 and SMW again. In fact I feel like the Wonder mechanic is actively anti-replay, that shit is only fun the first time around.
zoomers don't know what replaying means. They've been conditioned to consume product and then get excited for next product. Unironically I mean. They won't play old games unless they get remakes, even if the remakes are just ports. It has to be a "new thing" or else they aren't interested.
>replay every couple of years.
The N64 only having a handful of games that they kept playing over and over again did irreparable damage to Nintendo fans.
Because the Mario Maker series exists and you can play new Mario levels whenever you want.
Everyone replayed games back then. Video games weren't as cheap and readily available as it has been for the past 15 or so years.
Everyone rented games back then too, meaning that they played many different games. But the N64 didn't have many to choose from. Let alone ones that were actually good like Mario 64 and Zelda.
How long did a rental last again? Not everyone rented every weekend. They only extended rentals later in the 90's. During the 16 bit era it was around the same length as a movie rental which was good enough for a weekend.
If you buy the vouchers at 2 for $100 then it's only 50, and if you split the cost with friends you're playing with on local co-op then you're getting your money's worth.
You do have real life friends to play with, right OP?
>split the cost with friends you're playing with on local co-op
Do you also charge an entry fee for your friends to use your consoles? Wipe the fricking bagels and cream cheese off your face.
>Final Fantasy VII Remake >40 hours, give or take >15 hours of cutscenes >$70
I mean don't get me wrong, the visuals and music are beautiful, but frick me $70 for a ticket to a movie that doesn't even have an ending?
You cant just look at game time, also have to look at replayability. Because of the lack of story and room for optimization this game is inherently replayable. If you don't want this game it should be because the game design doesn't appeal to you, not because of the length.
In the intricate tapestry of linguistic expression, the phrase "Wowie Zowie" unveils itself as a nuanced portal to philosophical contemplation. The juxtaposition of "Wowie," with its echoes of childlike wonder, and "Zowie," a lexical anomaly, initiates a dance of semantic discord that invites reflection on the fluid nature of meaning.
This interplay of seemingly incongruent words serves as a linguistic paradox, challenging conventional boundaries and beckoning the inquisitive mind to explore the inherent ambiguity of language. In the absence of a predefined narrative, "Wowie Zowie" becomes a linguistic canvas upon which the intellect can paint its own subjective interpretation, a reminder that meaning is not an absolute but a product of individual perception.
Delving deeper, the absurdity embedded in "Wowie Zowie" mirrors the inherent chaos of existence. Amidst the cosmic tumult where order and disorder entwine, the phrase becomes a microcosm of life's capricious nature. It serves as a subtle reminder that, in the face of existential uncertainty, embracing the nonsensical may offer a unique lens through which to navigate the complexities of human experience.
Ultimately, "Wowie Zowie" emerges not as a mere linguistic oddity but as a philosophical touchstone, inviting contemplation on the dynamic interplay between language, meaning, and the existential tapestry of life. It stands as a testament to the richness of expression and the perpetual dance of interpretation that defines our engagement with the intricacies of language and thought.
>Metroid Dread comes out >My friends literally shit on it because it's too short (like 8 hours playtime) >Sonic Superstars, Mario Wonder and Super Mario RPG come out >My friends proceed to do a mental gymnastic to say 8 hours playtime isn't a problem
Actually funny to see them struggle when I love all these games lmao
That's fine
most of the best games aren't +12 hours long
Name two.
Mario 64
Mario Galaxy 1 2
Mario Odyssey
Resident Evil 4
The Outer Wilds
Any Devil May Cry game can be finished in 8 hours or less, same with Bayonetta, TW101 and Astral Chain.
you don't "finish" those games you just stop playing. normal mode is basically the tutorial.
I am NOT paying.
This is a game your supposed to 100% and replay every couple of years.
>and replay every couple of years.
Only poorgays replay games.
I kind of miss being a poor gay kid without massive option of things to play tbh.
I solved this by just raising my standards in games tbh.

Why would you NOT replay a platformer, you fricking moron?

Game rentals were 3 to 5 days depending on what you paid, at least as far as I can remember.
you can only do so much with mario maker

>Final Fantasy VII Remake
>40 hours, give or take
>15 hours of cutscenes
>$70
I mean don't get me wrong, the visuals and music are beautiful, but frick me $70 for a ticket to a movie that doesn't even have an ending?
Well you can spend probably almost $30 for your ticket plus your date's plus popcorn and drinks for a 2 hour movie that doesn't have an ending
good thing you dont need to :*~~
>I am NOT paying $60 for 9 hours of gameplay!
thats fine just pirate it and play it on an emulator.
>some parts of the floor don’t have graphics
Welp, I downloaded it
>inb4 hurr you’re too moronic to emulate durr

*glad I downloaded it
Fug, too tired
>buying mario for the main story
Oh look a moron!
More gameplay than the all time 2d Mario classics
Yeah but everyone else will so tough shit.
I used my second voucher for it, so I only paid $30
The games I've replayed the most in my life:
Super Mario Bros. 3
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Mega Man X
Final Fantasy IV
Final Fantasy V
Final Fantasy VI
Dragon Age: Origins
Main story is more like 5 hours
I do not care, it is your money and your business, just have a nice day and I will be happy
>Digital cost the same as physical.
Why? How? When?
Who is responsible? Who should I blame?
How did it come to this? How do I curse someone over the internet?
How based of Nintendo to cover the cost of packaging and cartridge at no extra cost!
It has been this way for literally 20 years
But we were told to switch to digital because it would make buying games cheaper
it is cheaper. for the corporations. thanks!
You're supposed to play it 9 hours every day. 18 if you're a completionist.

>the "hours of content" consoomer
They make games for you people, why don't you play them?
