Nintendo Selects: What It Was & Should It Come Back? | Omar Man
Remember the Nintendo Selects branding that Nintendo used to do, remember when it used to be called player’s choice? In today’s video, I talk about what it was, how it originated, and how it ended, but I also discuss why the brand should be brought back. Enjoy.

I Don’t Think A New Nintendo Direct is Gonna Happen This June | Omar Man
Would make sense, u can find used games for 30$ like breath of wild. If nintnedo sold them for that theyd make another sale
Correct me if I'm wrong but where im from (Europe) The players choice box was silver, wich I always found so cool.
Fun Fact: When _Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze_ got released on the Switch, Nintendo removed the game from the Wii U eShop so more people would buy it for $60. Even almost 7 years later, the game is still $60 on the Switch eShop.
Hey guys, so I guess I made a bit of a mistake at 9:19 discussing all the various games I mentioned like Mario Kart Wii where I said they’re a part of the Nintendo Selects line, but I actually didn’t realize that some games part of the brand were exclusive to Europe which is also why this wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the video. Apologies for not clarifying this, I’ll try to do better in the future.
This is too scary for me
In the end, the only main factor of success is the price. Nothing more.
Hi
Anyone else hyped for Echoes of Wisdom?
Me
This guy missed out on alot. Mario kart Online and Wii Sports resort was lit!
theyre not really making any games, theyre probably focusing more on hardware and software for games
Still love this game 🗿
Thanks for watching everyone, it was super cool making a video on something non Nintendo related and would really enjoy doing it again some more in the future. Also, I want to try get one more smaller video out before July hits and then get to work on a video themed around BOTW.
Splatoon 3 was a necessary sequel for the future of the series, splat 2 had so many fundamental flaws that could not be fixed through dlc, in top of that, Nintendo needed to keep the fanbase alive m, if there was no splat 3, it would be 5 years without any new content for the series which is terrible for a primarily multiplayer game
Yes. As we near the end of updates for this multiplayer, they may be in a situation to keep such a high active player base. I actually think we could get Splatoon 4 in 2.5 years. I actually think they can develop it easier than Zelda.
I can also relate to sequels brining in new fans. I was considering getting Splatoon 2 for a while. Sadly I never took the plunge. But when S3 came out, I saw it as a chance for me to dive in head first. And now it’s one of my most played Switch games lol
Me as well. Never thought I would like it but it's a game with so much to do. Especially with Side Order.
I love whenever I hear someone express disappointment with Tears of the Kingdom - it makes me feel like I’m not insane 😮
YES YES YES! Tears of the Kingdom? More like Tears of the Players
now smash all smashs are vastly different for example zelda used to be scary now she's slow and has mad end lag 😢
We will be watching your career with great interest
Tears would have been amazing if it came first and BOTW didn’t exist, but since BOTW did, and tears came 6 years later, what it ended up doing felt so incremental in the end.
when you say following the game industry for years, i feel like you mean nintendo almost exclusively. this is such a nintendo fans take on this topic.
well nintendo been around the longest so
Yeah a lot of these conventions just straight up dont apply to the wider industry For example the reusing of engines: Besides the yearly EA sports shlop, it's not actually as common to have games literally built off their predecessor, or at least it's not as evident that it is For example, you'd be hardpressed to find someone who thinks all the Souls games or the Street Fighter games look/feel the same beyond just being of the same series. Splatoon meanwhile is the same game repackaged twice now
@@__BlacklotuS__ doesn’t matter. it’s just odd to make a video talking about the video gaming industry as a whole, but almost every single example, point made, and game shown, was either from a nintendo game or basically only applies to nintendo. for example, most of the video he talks about sequels having a negative connotation because of reusing assets, ideas, even level themes etc. that’s almost exclusively a nintendo issue. galaxy to galaxy 2, 3D land and world, BOTW and TOTK, any mario sports game, splatoon, mario maker. all criticised for some or many of those reasons. but looking at other companies, you can’t hold that same standard to those who make direct sequels. look at the Souls series, or RE, or TLOU etc.
I at least sort of disagree that TotK wasn't a big departure from BotW. Of course I ddin't get the joy of experiencing a brand new hyrule/kingdom or whatever but I personally feel that TotK has a far more engaging world to explore. It feels like what I would've wanted from BotW which didn't reward you for exploring in as many ways as TotK does. The fusion mechanic in particular is so much more rewarding than simply finding and using some random weapon out in the wild. There's just so much more incentive to fight enemies and do other things. To be fair though It was also easier for me to enjoy and appreciate the differences from what I've played of TotK so far because I only played through BotW once when it came out where others might have played through it many times either casually or as a speed game.
It's issue is that it reuses a lot of missions. I get games tend to reuse mission structure. Even in the same game. But the exact same mission and characters us a bit much
@@teneesh3376 Sure, and I agree, but that's the kind of criticism you could lend to any open world game imo.
@@TromboneGamer not if the world is smaller. Which I know isn't the best thing you can put on a box. I love smaller more distinct open worlds. It's why I love the yakuza games. They are able to do world building in such small worlds. Though I will say the remakes do suffer from reusing characters, stories and structure as well. That isn't really a budget thing and more on the lines of the devs really wanting to do bad comedy. Like, really bad comedy
TOTK is worse if you played a lot of BOTW
Imagine if all Switch titles existed sooner on Wii U and 3DS. Like acnh on Wii U in 2016. Had the Switch never existed. And Nintendo went third party after the Wii U.
18:52 If there are 20 levels in Super Mario Bros. 2, how did you go through 21? Anyway, this is one of my favorite Mario games. I never questioned its design when I was a kid, or even to this day. My stepbrother and I played through the whole game one night and ended up beating it, because we had never completed this game for how difficult it was for us at the time.
Super Mario Bros. 2 is my favorite 2D mario next to Super Mario World. I wish they would do a new one in the New series style.
Yea im already pissed off and im only at min 5:21 cause i consider it the best game on the nes, and considering how almost every charaters inside this game (liek the shy guy) are now so much into pop culture, sayng that is the worst mario tilt me hard!... but i got some more time to spare so ill post this now and resume the video to insult you more later :)
I just subscribed because I also make nintendo content. I wanted to say nintendo said they don't want to be limited to console life cycles like they did in the past.
Nintendo has literally no reason to take the switch off the market. They’ll give it a price cut, and keep it on the market for another 3 years. I think they’re going for the title, otherwise why would they release so many amazing and high budget games to the switch so early?
It would be a major misstep if Nintendo did that in that year. Give it until either 2026 or 2027! Yet keep the eshop open for another 10 years or so!
I don't think it will be discontinued in 2024, sort of how the 3DS still got games after the switches launch. However I do think a new console will definitely be announced by 2024 since modern Nintendo consoles on average last 5-7 years before a new system comes out. Even the DS and Wii got replaced 6-7 years into their lifespan, and those were the high selling consoles. My personal guess is a new console will be announced in 2024, and released either late 2024 or early 2025. Not to mention it's very obvious the hardwares aging, I myself only play first and second party games on the system, but even with first and second party games, sometimes their performance tanks, hell I think Camilas Paralogue in FE: Engage is a great example of this since the game on default turns off ally phase animations to keep the game running "smoothly". They're definitely going to release a new system somewhere in the next 1-2 years, but I don't think a total discontinuation will happen until 2028-2030
I don’t think this is true. The PM TTYD remake is releasing next year. Unless the new console is backwards compatible, I think the new console would have to come out in 2025 or later.
What I am still waiting for is Super Smash Bros 64 to be released on NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE. But if the Switch family of systems is supposed to be around for 10 years, by the time we get to Jan. 1, 2024, we are on YEAR 8. So I guess it would actually be discontinued in 2026. (I mean, "Possibly on Dec. 31, 2026".)
Next video will be a retrospective review on Super Mario Brothers 2.
And what about a NINTENDO SWITCH 2 in 2027? I have been thinking about one of their NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE games (yes, NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE for Switch 2) being the original Super Smash Bros about one of their first Nintendo 64 titles (released on NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE for Switch 2). I would love to play both Smash 64 (if you buy it on the NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE), Smash Ultimate, and Smash Ultimate Deluxe on the NINTENDO SWITCH 2. (NOTE: The original Super Smash Bros will also be one of the masterpieces for Super Smash Bros Ultimate Deluxe. On MASTERPIECES, you can play demos of retro games and the full version can be purchased for the NINTENDO SWITCH ONLINE.) So Super Smash Bros Ultimate Deluxe will have a total of 100 characters (in the base game). The possible newcomers for this game (yes, in the base game) are Dark Link, Waluigi, Meowth, Mew, Riolu, Aryll, Medusa, Viridi, Aiai (from the Super Monkey Ball universe), AND TY the Tasmanian Tiger. And like Smash 64, MELEE, BRAWL, and Smash 4, Smash Ultimate Deluxe will be back to having more starter characters than unlockables. (That is, with the newcomer Dark Link being the only newcomer to be available from the start. And counting Pokemon Trainer as one character, there will be 87 starter characters. Three can only be created. And that is Sportsmate Fighters from Nintendo Switch Sports --and they also serve as the enemy team on Mob Smash. Waluigi, Meowth, Mew, Riolu, Aryll, Medusa, Viridi, Aiai, AND TY the Tasmanian Tiger will all be unlockable.) And yes, there is at least one character from the Mario universe to be a newcomer. That is, Waluigi. (NOTE: I am sorry. But Toad and Toadette will not be playable, since Toad is part of Peach's neutral special move. As for Toadette, she will be part of Daisy's neutral special move instead of a Blue Toad.) So now that Waluigi is a playable character in Ultimate Deluxe, Mario and Luigi will no longer have their Waluigi attires. Instead, the Waluigi costume will be replaced with Mario's old dark blue costume (that being in a dark blue hat, a dark blue shirt, and red overalls). That is, for Mario. For Luigi, his Waluigi attire will be replaced with an entirely new costume. That is, his Builder Luigi attire (from SUPER MARIO MAKER). Charizard (from the Pokemon universe) still is back in his BRAWL's Final Smash (that being, Triple Finish), but he still transforms into Mega Charizard X when performing it. And Lucario, he will still transform into Mega Lucario when performing the Final Smash Aura Storm. (NOTE: So in Ultimate Deluxe, like Ultimate, Charizard and Lucario will still revert back to their original Final Smashes --Triple Finish and Aura Storm. But they can still transform into Mega Charizard X and Mega Lucario while performing them.) Still, I was really disappointed when VIRTUAL CONSOLE did not return (beginning with the Switch family in 2017).
It is strange that aside from Mario games (that being Super Mario World) my preference for Nintendo franchises is the very first game for all of them...
where's the hell is kirby?
I much preferred botw when that came out in 2017 it was a bigger surprise than totk today however totk is much better so it’s kind of weird which one is or was the best. However if someone hasn’t played them and could only pick one I’d recommend totk easily
Cool video! It's amazing that Metroid Dread turned out as well as it did considering it wasn't even developed by a Japanese studio (MercurySteam).
My favourite is Earthbound
You played the donkey kong puzzle game on gba? Many prefer that to the gameboy version.
I haven’t yet. I plan to do so when the remake comes out.

4:27 now that would be cool,if every gamecube game didnt cost an arm and a leg.
at this point just mod the Wii to play GameCube games lol
I think there's value in both. I love the Switch and I hope Nintendo continues making more powerful hybrid consoles in the future.
Yeah
Honestly I think it's my favorite console too. That or maybe the DS. The Wii has the best party/local multiplayer games, and overall the games are just a really fun and unique experience not like the others. I remember sometimes using it to watch UA-cam videos on my TV screen too. The quality may not have been as good as the other consoles we have now but it provided fun times nonetheless.

Ah yes i remember when the wii u did bad and every video was nintendo going third party. Good times.
