Topic: Unpopular / niche game opinions!

Bethesda have never made a good game before.

Rare solely get by on nostalgia when their games are actually pretty terrible on replay.

Original Xbox is still the best one.

Breath of the Wild is an excellent evolution for the series and they should stick to that gameplay style going forward.

Nintendo is the only console maker that has genuinely good first party games this generation.

The Last of Us: Part 1 is a good game and the hate for the first game is just angry internet dwellers.

Persona is the worst popular JRPG series currently releasing.

Phil Spencer is just as bad as Don Mattrick and Jim Ryan.

haha... there's unpopular, and then there's spoiling for rumble!!!

@BowsersBuddy It did actually get pretty decent to mixed reviews (usually within the 6-7 and maybe 8 range) but I think it was longtime B-K fans that disliked it, mostly for changing the gameplay from platforming to construction building with minimal platforming elements, as well as the game’s infamous self-deprecating intro that some could have perceived as being tone-deaf and trashing previous entries. After the release of Tears of the Kingdom and its similar construction mechanics, I have seen a resurgence of praise for Nuts and Bolts, and some do view it as being unfairly treated and underrated.

In my opinion, that line of dialogue in Tooie’s ending that mentions Banjo-Threeie could have contributed to the negativity held toward Nuts and Bolts. The ending made it appear as if it was going to receive a follow-up in the same vein as the previous games. However, the developers said it was added in there as a joke, so it seems they weren’t ever intending on giving it a sequel. They even wanted to stop creating more games in the B-K series after Tooie if I recall!

I fully stand by all three.

Don't think that one is unpopular.
In fact, every single time I ask for a "traditional" Zelda (pretty sure it started as open world, but whatever) I get absolutely destroyed in the comments...
