Nintendo Persuasive Speech

Hello gamers! I'm Andrew McNeil, and today, there are a few facts you should know. With a new generation of video game consoles, I’m sure you are all eager to buy the best system. The problem is, (point towards crowd) you can’t decide which one to actually buy. That’s why reviews were invented: to let people know what the best game system is.

Up first is something you probably expect in a review. The Nintendo may have the best graphics of this generation. Why? They are 3-D.

If you gamers have ever played the Nintendo Entertainment System or the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, then you know that games used to be 8-bit and 16-bit. This means that games used to be very poor in graphics. They didn’t have the capacity for many detailed designs.

With

the Nintendo 64, all of this changes. Thanks to the 32-bit and 64-bit era of video games, the games have the capacity to go into detailed and intricate graphics. This makes 3-D graphics possible.
Let’s go ahead and get down to business: the Nintendo 64 console is relatively cheap, hitting the market at $199.
Compared to the Playstation, which was $299 when it first came out, it really is cheap. With a simple cardboard box design for the packaging, it’s no wonder that the Nintendo 64 is inexpensive.
Plus, with not really any moving parts, the Nintendo 64 is durable. Because of this, it’s rare to find a case where a Nintendo 64 stopped working for mechanical reasons, unless, of course, the owner doesn’t know how to take care of their consoles and video games. Then there will be a few technical issues. (Pause for laughing)
Beside the point, the Nintendo 64 was probably built to be almost indestructible, while being pretty cheap.
Now that we’re through the console durability and cost, we go on to the actual games. First we talk about the loading times.
Loading times are something every gamer is concerned about. Why are we concerned, you may ask? Because us gamers like to play games right now as soon as they are put in the system.
The Nintendo 64 luckily has short loading times, thanks to the cartridge that games are on. It’s simple why Nintendo even decided to use cartridges: the compact discs take way too long to load. So, with the cartridge system still in play, there are much shorter loading times.
There is, however, a twist. Even though Nintendo 64 games take a very short time to load, you still have to wait for all of the developer and producer screens, so you’re basically sitting through a CD loading screen.
I understand that Nintendo had to give credit to the developer, producer, editor, graphic designer, etc, but come on, isn’t that what the credits are for? Seriously though, the amount of crediting they put at the BEGINNING of the games is ridiculous, even if the game loads instantaneously.
The Nintendo 64 may have a lot of games up for playing, but it has nowhere near the amount of games the Playstation has. Now, 296 games may sound like a lot, but compared to 2355 games, it’s miniscule. However, among these mere 296 titles, there are some really good ones that could get Game of the Year award.
First of all, we have the game called Super Smash Bros.

It is one of the best games made by far. Imagine every major Nintendo character fighting to win a competition. That’s basically what Super Smash Bros. is.

Next is a game with extreme innovations from it’s previous versions. That’s right, we’re talking about Super Mario 64. Take every basic aspect about Super Mario Bros.and throw it out the window. It goes from a 2-dimensional platformer to a 3-dimensional platformer, all because Nintendo knows how to get more fans of good games. Now I know what you’re thinking, “Why does Nintendo want more fans of their games?” The reason is simple. They love making games that everyone loves.

Last, but not least, we have the game Star Fox 64. This is a game where you fly through space trying to destroy your enemies before they ruin everyone’s lives. What makes this one better than all of the rest Star Fox games is that it has 3-dimensional graphics. However, this is not the only better difference from the previous game in the Star Fox franchise. This new game features a section where you actually play on the ground. This may as well be the best one out of the two.

Now, on to the last subject. These are pretty expensive

games.
Why do I say this? Because some games can cost up to $200.00. That’s absurd! Meanwhile, Playstation games are only up to maybe $80.00. Big difference, right?
Okay guys and gals, I’m going to wrap up here, because I've pretty much said all there is to say. Hopefully now you know which game system to buy.
