1)A Japanese company originally named Marafuku (i forget the meaning), but changed to Nintendo (from an old japanes word "leave luck to heaven") before it entered the game biz. Quite possibly the greatest company in the history of the world.
2)A company that makes games often thought to be for kids. People who think that are retards.
3)The Creators of Mario, Metroid, Zelda, and other games worthy of winning the award for Greatest Game Of All Time
4)The company that is consistently getting its best ideas ripped-off by Sony.
1) Apparently, Nintendo used to be Marafuku!
2) nintendo hater: Nintendo's a kiddy game company.
3) some guy: I just bought the new Mario game!
other guy: That is the greatest game EVER!!!!
4) Sony recently ripped off Wii on the subject of its motion sensitive controller.

Best video game company out there. Creators of thriving game series such as Mario, The Legend of Zelda and Metroid.
Twilight Princess for the Wii really beats Halo 2/GoW because of the gameplay. Sure, GoW and Halo 2 have better graphics, but they have to be the most repetitive games, and must require the least amount of skill out there. Twilight Princess has decent graphics, but its gameplay is simply amazing. You have several different dungeons and bosses to face off against, several different items to beat these bosses, and several different mini-quests to aide you in completing the game. The game requires a lot of dedication, and requires focus to complete.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption is going to set the bar for Halo 3. Halo 3, which will probably be as generic of a shooter as Halo: CE and Halo 2, will only have good graphics. Not to mention that the idea of buying a small Master Chief helmet is simply retarded. Metroid Corruption will have great graphics, excellent gameplay, and awesome WiFi multiplayer.

Not to mention, Nintendo's wifi is... FREE. You may not be able to talk to people on it (but who cares, all people do on Xbox live is complain and call other people noobs). Nintendo also creates cost-effecient games.

Nintendo has created some of the greatest games of all-time. The best game has to be The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The graphics were great for it (at its time) and it had incredible game play. Halo series' gameplay, as mentioned earlier, is generic and takes no skill and concentration.
Wow! I have an assault rifle and a grenade! I'm going to throw the grenade and blindly shoot my rifle till I run out of ammo! z0mg! I GOT 12 KILLS! WOO!

The Nintendo Wii is awesome too. I recently got it a few weeks ago, and it has yet to disappoint me. The cost, a mere 250$, makes the system well worth it. The Wii ousts the 360 and the PS3 well over. One feature of the PS3, a terrible one I may add, is the fact that you cannot bring a game to someone elses house and expect to play it right away. Nooo you cannot! It costs 2$ to play a game on someone else's PS3. The PS3's six-axis controller is the biggest rip off of the Wii's wii remote/nunchuck controller.

Wii Sports, the game that comes with the Wii to teach you the usage of the controller, is decent and probably is more fun than most PS3 games.

Nintendo also has other amazing systems, such as the Game Cube, Nintendo DS, N64, Gameboy Advance (SP), Gameboy (color/pocket), SNES and NES. Not one of those systems disappointed me. I own a Wii, GCN, DS, N64, GBA, SNES, and NES. All those systems have great games to back them up.
The Nintendo game company will not disappoint you with the amazing game play they provide you with on all of their consoles.

An incredibly successful video game company that started in the late 1800's making hanafuda cards. They then grew into a video game industry in the 70's and has become very popular since then. Nintendo created many recognizable characters in the gaming industry such as Mario, Link, Kirby and Samus. Nintendo also saved the industry from the Great Video Game Crash of 1983 with the R.O.B, or Family Computer Robot, as it was known in Japan. It was a peripheral for the NES that helped save the games industry. Nintendo called it a toy rather than a console, and more people decided to invest in it. Thus Nintendo singlehandedly saved the industry.

Today, however, many Xbox and Playstation fanboys and fangirls are unaware of Nintendo's great history, and how it saved the industry, and bash the company for it's "kiddy" games. Because the games are marketed towards children rather than people in their 20's living in their parent's basements, many people regard them as irrelevant.
Xbox fanboy: Nintendo makes kiddy games and is a disgrace to the gaming industry!
Nintendo fan: Don't you know that Nintendo saved the gaming industry in 1983? If it wasn't for them, your percious Xbox wouldn't exist.
Xbox fanboy: Whatever, it still sucks butt.
Nintendo fan: *sighs and walks away*

Nintendo is a game company that has been around for +100 years. The Nintendo saga began with the NES. As the years went on, Nintendo gained popularity and competitions. Of course, Sony and Microsoft fans have hated on it due to judging the games Nintendo provides. Games nintendo is responsible for is Super Mario Bros, the Legend of Zelda, Splatoon, and the highly popular Super Smash Bros. Franchise.
Sony: *dosen't show up at E3 2019*
Xbox: haha, I will win E3 this year! I have Keanu Reeves and LEGO for Forza!
Nintendo: KNOCK KNOCK, MOTHERFUCKERS! IT'S NINTENDO, BITCH! WE GOT 2 NEW SMASH BROS CHARACTERS, LUIGI'S MANSION 3, ANIMAL CROSSING, AND A NEW ZELDA! YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA WIN THIS YEAR! YOU REALLY DID! HOW ADORABLE!
