MODERATORS
Nintendo has this weird habit of thinking extremely little of their players and assuming they are simply too stupid to play video games, and therefore need to have their hands held or be distracted with flashy gimmicks. Their actual base gameplay mechanics are some of the best in the business but they rarely actually ask the player to apply themselves. I don't think anyone likes to be condescended to. If it weren't for Metroid and Zelda, I don't think I'd put up with their underpowered shield tablet.
