What's that Nintendo game you can't really get into as other did.

[DJ-Mika]

For me it would be:

Splatoon - So this is kind of a complicated matter for me. I do actually love Splatoon and have played the game, both multiplayer and solo, and as someone who is solely a single-player person I actually PREFER the multiplayer stuff cause it's so fun
What starts to turn it off for me is how freaking OVERZEALOUS the community is. All my friends have the game, have been playing since the beginning, bought Splat3 day one and pretty much play it nonstop, all while constantly giving me crap for not having it (cause how dare I ) and refuse to acknowledge any other games to play and leave me out. I jumped in around Splat2 and only have that game, and while I do enjoy it, I DON'T enjoy the fans being low-key bossy and rude about me not letting it consume my life like it has theirs apparently. Needless to say, I've been putting off getting Splat3 cause the more people tell me what to do, the less likely I am to do it lol

Zelda - This is a game series that I only recently got to playing in my adulthood and never touched it as a kid, the big reason being I'm just really REALLY not into high fantasy settings (I much prefer sci-fi); elves, fairies, dragons, potions, etc. just not my thing lol
The first Zelda game I ever played was Skyward Sword; it was.... fine. I do realize that SS is considered by fans to be a weakier entry in the series, so I'm more than willing to keep trying other games. So far I have Twilight Princess, Wind Waker, and Breath of the Wild, all acclaimed by everyone so here's to hoping it does something for me! Also very interested in trying out Majora's Mask as I love the darker creepier tone

Fortnite - Ok low hanging fruit popular game to complain about, but it's true! Maybe I'm just too old and uncool to understand it lol but as I said before I'm way more into a single-player experience so just not for me

Pokémon - So don't get me wrong, I grew up with Pokémon during the 90's when it was pretty much at the highest peak of it's popularity and everyone was into it; I played the games (Gold), collected and traded the trading cards, watched the anime/movies, bought all the Pokémon branded foods and whatnot (Pokémon Pop-Tarts NEED to come back), I pretty much love this franchise by default LOL
BUT I have 4 games for it total; Gold, HeartGold, SoulSilver, and Sword, and I've never gotten the urge to buy the rest. It's pretty much the same problem others have with it; it's just more of the same. If people enjoy it then more power to them! But I personally just can't understand buying it over and over again
The ONLY other game I've ever been slightly tempted into getting was Scarlet/Violet, but due to the controversy of the performance of the game + the uncertainty if GameFreak will supply it with a meaningful number of updates/patches just reallyyyy sours it for me

Smash Bros. - Again, boils down to the fact that I'm just more of a single-player mindset + the overzealous toxic community; I like to play it casually with friends/family but don't expect me to sink hours of my life into this thing just because you tell me to

Pokémon: I played Sword for a while and got really bored of it. It was my first (and pretty much last) Pokémon game ever. I recently played Violet on someone else's account (I share a Switch) and it was kind of fun but reallyyyy easy (maybe it was just an easy stage in the game, but it didn't seem like the beginning or anything). I hated encountering Pokémon when I played Sword,,,, and that's like the whole point of Pokémon is to catch 'em all. I just don't like fighting and conflict I guess... I actually don't know if I like it or not to be honest. But I really don't get the hype. Music's nice and concept is cool but gameplay seems pretty mid to me. Especially since it seems to repeat itself a lot. Mom kicks you out of the house at the ripe old age of 10 to (legally) make random animals fight against each other. And you win almost every time. I don't get the appeal.

Super Smash Bros (any of the series): I like playing it, as in playing as Kirby and k*lling people and not having to pay consequences (lol, jk...kinda). but I'm not very good at it and I don't like the pressure of losing, so I never practice and get good. See the problem?

City Folk: don't get me wrong I love animal crossing, it's why I'm on this forum, but City Folk (and to some extent, ACGC) is the most mid of all ac games I've played and I've played each one except WW.

each game has its own charm, right? Gc is quirky and cute, plus villagers are fun to interact with and every npc has a role,,,

Meanwhile there's cf.... dialogue is even more boring and repetitive than new horizons (somehow). Worst game for earning bells. Feels like there's nothing to do. Music gets annoying after a while (but that's every video game, tbh, unless you listen in the background). I think CF's biggest problem is the boredom factor. The only thing different to do in CF as opposed to all other AC games is you go to a city. Big whoop. There's not many stores there anyway.

Meanwhile you can do favors for villagers, aerobics, help Tortimer, etc and experience old game's charm in gc. WW (I have not played but this is my impression) - there's a lot of cute holidays only in that game like gc. Villagers photos. Portability. No pressure to make your town look great as you have little control over it, except for the town rating stuff but you don't have to do it. NL- there is SO MUCH to do it's almost overwhelming. Tortimers island bug/fish/diving, club lol, build up Main Street. Diving. Get pwps. Set ordinances. Be the actual mayor. Campsite. New fruits. RV (in wa). TOURS (even by yourself). In wa you can scan amiibo too. Same with NH: you can literally change the landscape, cook/craft, grow gardens, place furniture outside, have access to HHP dlc (if u buy it ofc), 2 types of mystery islands. Every thing is island themed. Harvey's island. Control over whether villagers can leave.

What do you have in City Folk?

That's right. Nothing but the city.

(Sorry I just ranted about City Folk for a minute...)

I have nothing else wrong with cf, I still like to play it sometimes. I just don't feel as happy playing it as other ac games.

I loved City Folk! Its one of my favorites and I still play all the AC games almost daily. I know alot of people dont like it because it has the same soundtrack as Wild World and that it did not add much but its the most polished of the originals if you ask me! The dialogue definitely died in City Folk, its because after speaking to them once or twice they say the exact same thing so you have to enter a building or wait a while for them to say something different sadly.

I am going to get a lot of flack for this but for me it was The Legend of Zelda. I know its beloved by everyone but for me I just could not get into it. I am someone who is not a fan of backtracking and puzzles in general. I tried Breath of the Wild but then I ended up getting lost because the game really doesn't tell you what you're suppose to do. Its really not for me. I can see why people love it but for me I just could never get into it.
