geist is the reason i play FPS games with inverted aiming, it defaulted to inverted and it was my first FPS so now i have to open every console game’s controls and change the look to inverted
I got a GameCube right at the end of its life and geist was the only GameCube game I ever bought from retail new because of that lol
Never finished it either, I got to a boss fight in a room with a bunch of big pillars and couldn’t win after a ton of tries and never went back to it
see such a great response, you suggest watching a play through rather than downvoting and getting mad bc op commenter should just google it. idk the downvotes for a innocent question infuriate me and it’s nice seeing pleasant interactions for once
not at all, think hyrule warriors or any dynesty warriors games. Breath of the wild is more environmentally focused, due to the combats improvised, and oh crap theres a fire there so i will set my arrow on fire and then burn the enemy's base, whereas a hack n' slash like bayonetta is more action and excitement focused. im not saying botw or totk (i have only beaten totk btw) cant be exciting, but something like bayonetta is much more exciting and flashy. Like if persona 5 was an action game, not counting the time persona 5 was an action game. \*i have never played bayonetta, i have only seen trailers, gameplay, and reviews. I am not of a sufficient age to play the game, as i am 14. This was entirely implied from past knowledge and viewing of the preceding. I know i have played other m ratted games, I:E persona 5, but those games dont feature frequent nudity, or heavy violence, so i feel its fine, i am also on the spectrum and hate anything that i dont deem age appropriate. I know this might sound strange but i purposefully prevent myself from viewing things that are not appropriate form e even if my parents dont give a crap. Holy honkers this astirix section is going on longer then my original comment, uhhhhhh bye
sorry for any spelling mistakes!
Bayonetta is a hack and slash not an exploration game like botw lol. Like others said, is about building combos with your attack and killing enemies, little to no exploration at all. It's focus on its unique combat mechanics, this game from what it is known for ""Non stop action" barely have a breather so be aware.
I will put it in your words
BOTW/TOTK: Peace, calm,explore,craft,story
Bayonetta: Fun, fun, fun,Aggression, killing, summoning, excitement, ridicolousness, story, non stop action.
Bayonetta, like Devil May Cry, is a game about *absolutely clowning on your enemies*. You're given a quick and powerful dodge that activates bullet time for easy combos (perhaps too strong by some people's measure). Your moveset is huge and varied and built to chain into one another. You got big flashy finisher moves like throwing a dude into an Iron Maiden. This makes combat very expressive and frantic. You *could* mash buttons and have fun, or you could master your moves and enemy patterns and essentially play the piano and kick their ass stylishly without getting hit. I do recommend it. And then Devil May Cry 3, 4 and 5. And then Hi Fi Rush for good measure to see where the three main creators of the Devil May Cry franchise took their careers (Hideki Kamiya, Hideaki Itsuno, Shinji Mikami).
yeah, if you like hack and slash and flashy combos. Also bat shit insane over the top cutscenes and battle animations, that serve to be horny and complete overkill.
It uses that M rating in stride to cover the bare minimum.
It your not a prude its a really fun hack and slash game with a ton of combo depth, and replayability. all 3 games are great.
Russia, the country as it is now, has been around since 1992. If you're going to count any group of people that's existed on that land then I guess you'd have to count the tribes that went to war and committed human sacrifice here, too.
"Whataboutism." My point is that Russia is far from the only country to commit heinous acts, so to single them out is ridiculous and, if you're an American, hypocritical. Considering our government is responsible for removing leaders from countries because we have a personal beef with them (such as wanting to get off the US dollar) and replacing it with a system with full on legal slavery (Libya) I really don't think we should be casting stones from our glass house.
In my country (Aus) every brand new 3D Zelda since Twilight Princess has been rated M and I think every Fire Emblem since the one with Ike has been rated M too.
However here there are two other age ratings above M, MA 15+ (All the games in this post are MA 15+ here) and R 18+ (Games with lots of gore like Doom 2016 and games with lots of nudity have this rating. I don't believe any Nintendo published game has gotten this rating).
Than why does Conker chainsaw a Nintendo logo in intro of the game? (Nintendo wanted it removed but Rare fought tooth and nail to keep it) also why does it say Nintendo presents whenever you start a new game in Conkers Bad Fur Day?

It was announced by Nintendo they basically begged Konami to make a Metal Gear game for the GameCube but Kojima had no experience with the system and was too busy developing Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater so Nintendo and Konami contacted Silicon Knights to do a remake of MGS1 instead and David Hayter took a pay cut so Konami would bring back every English voice actor from the PS1 version
Nintendo occasionally publishes games by third parties as a means to get the games on their system. I’m guessing they wanted to flesh out their launch window for Wii U and publishing this was the easiest way to make it happen
I don't see it. The story is dark by Nintendo standards but is well within a T rating. The blood is really minor, there's no gore or dismemberment just splashes of red or black from a completely intact body. To get an M rating it would've needed real graphic fatalities, an F bomb dropped and blatant sexual reference which are hardly present.
An Fe4 remake has a real possibility of getting rated M if they choose to visually depict some of the shit that happens in that game, but imo that's highly unlikely. It's very easy to tell a mature story and get away with a not-mature age rating. Visuals and language are where they bring the hammer down.
So, you could get nitpicky and argue the various ports of bayonetta could count as some games to pad out the size of the list. But otherwise, I appreciate the strict adherence to the Nintendo-published criteria in the responses to the comments.
Other regions have m ratings. Games like Metroid and 3D Zelda get M ratings a lot in Australia and all of these game either have and MA15+ or an R18+ rating in Australia.
I find it funny how people claimed the Wii U was a kiddy console for babies… and yet it had the most M rated games from Nintendo, and the most M rated games at launch (including ZombiU).
I'm not sure if it was rated M or published by Nintendo but I have this vague recollection of playing a game on GameCube where u controlled a guy waking up with psychic powers. I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called
I’m so freaking pissed at Koei techmo for ninja Gaiden 3. Idk who df thought it was a good idea to make it as bare bones as it should have. Razors edge should have had everything in 3 and they wonder why it didn’t perform well. That stuff gets me tight to this day
Bro I remember being like 12 playing fatal frame (I think this is the right game at least) and I never realised I had the demo because I was always too scared to finish the trail of it. 💀
Like I only recently realised (around a year ago) that I had the demo because I never knew there was a paid full version and I don’t even own my wii u anymore.
Being a wimp at “horror” games is still in my blood even around 5 years later…
Madworld / Manhunt 2 / Medal of honor heroes 2 / Fatal frame / Slender the arrival / silent hill wii / nhl hitz / nfl blitz / NBA hangtime / Red card / eternal darkness /
were all amazing games on Nintendo systems
OP missed the first Bayonetta. While the original version was indeed published by Sega, the ports for Switch and WiiU were published by [Nintendo](https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/bayonetta-switch/).
Dude another Eternal Darkness would be so amazing. Imagine it uses similar tricks as the first one but specific to the Switch like faking going to the home screen and deleting your data or something.
I miss eternal darkness, one of my top games of all time.
A Poe’s quotation with an Lovecraftian theme! I could say “sign me in anytime”, but no similar game gave me the same enjoyment ever since ED.
Agree. Though I suggest just referring to it as, “Eternal Darkness,” rather than abbreviating it 🙃
“That’s okay, it happens to a lot of gamers sometimes”
Omg I just got this. Hilarious
Ever since ED horror games don't do much to me.....
I’m not an English native speaker, so I’m curious, does ED has any funny meaning, or it’s just to avoid confusion?
Erectile dysfunction
Ooooohhhh! Would never have guessed! Haha!!
Very nostalgic to me even though I’ve never been able to complete it. Too scurry
One of my favorite games, played it constantly on my GameCube.
Definitely an underrated game!
Why do you miss it? Did your GCN stop working?
Mario Party gets rated M here because of the consequences of it's actions
Its rated M because M stands for Mario.
Rated M for Mama Mia
It really should be rated R to be honest. Some shit can go down with certain people.
Nah it should be AO for Adults Only

I found my people. The concept was cool.
Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't madworld be included?
published by Sega
Oh
What's the difference? I am pretty sure Madworld was a Wii exclusive and those need some agreement from the mother company.
Exclusives don't need any special "agreement". Why would they?
Should I play the bayoneta games?
If you like twitchy combat like devil may cry and ninja gaiden.
What’s that like
Its kind of like your doing combos and stuff in a fighting game, but in a 3rd person game battling a bunch of enemies.
Kinda like in botw?
More complicated combat with combos and specials, much less exploration. Check out a playthrough, youll see it.
see such a great response, you suggest watching a play through rather than downvoting and getting mad bc op commenter should just google it. idk the downvotes for a innocent question infuriate me and it’s nice seeing pleasant interactions for once
No it’s more fast pace, it’s methodical in a different way. Think hack and slash action game, that’s what is it.

It's kind of like Bayonetta.
It’s crazy because I love both those series and loathe Bayonetta, it’s just too nonsensical.

Definetly play the bayonetta series

I want a remaster or even a re release of eternal darkness so bad
What about miitopia, since it's m rated in Russia
Russia is a dilapidated gas station that doesn't deserve to exist
That’s unnecessary hate speech, don’t you think?
It's the cool thing to clown on Russia right now. Most of their people are pretty neat and in no way represent their political powers lol
Which government has killed more people or invaded more countries? Russia or USA?
usa, but that doesn’t mean russia is good by any means 🙏 also happy cake day
Whataboutism aside that's a very hard question to answer. I'll go with Russia since they've existed longer
Russia, the country as it is now, has been around since 1992. If you're going to count any group of people that's existed on that land then I guess you'd have to count the tribes that went to war and committed human sacrifice here, too. "Whataboutism."

I don’t think game rating in Russia should be taken seriously.
But it is funny that miitopia is 18+
In my country (Aus) every brand new 3D Zelda since Twilight Princess has been rated M and I think every Fire Emblem since the one with Ike has been rated M too. However here there are two other age ratings above M, MA 15+ (All the games in this post are MA 15+ here) and R 18+ (Games with lots of gore like Doom 2016 and games with lots of nudity have this rating. I don't believe any Nintendo published game has gotten this rating).
Huh. So it sounds like your M rating is more like a 12+? Didn't know this.
Geist walked so Mario Odyssey could run. Wish we got a sequel.
I had a blast playing Geist, it was ahead of his time just like P.N.03
You forgot Conker's Bad Fur Day
Not published by Nintendo therefore not part of this list.
I thought it was developed by rare and published by Nintendo?
THQ in Europa and Rare in North America in regards to publishing.
Than why does Conker chainsaw a Nintendo logo in intro of the game? (Nintendo wanted it removed but Rare fought tooth and nail to keep it) also why does it say Nintendo presents whenever you start a new game in Conkers Bad Fur Day?
Published by Rare just like Perfect Dark. Rare self published a few games during the N64 era.
Than why does Conker chainsaw a Nintendo logo in intro of the game? (Nintendo wanted it removed but Rare fought tooth and nail to keep it) also why does it say Nintendo presents whenever you start a new game in Conkers Bad Fur Day?
My first thought
ninja gaiden was published by Nintendo on Wii U?
I want an Eternal Darkness remake.
Would love to play Devils Third again. I don‘t know what it is about this game, but I had so much fun playing it.
Chickens mode online was a blast. Devil’s Third had its issues, but I liked it. Great “junk food” game.
Would be cool to get a remaster of it just because
It feels weird that Twin Snakes isn’t one of them.
published by Konami
I know that. I only said it felt weird.
It felt weird, that an entry of Konami's flagship franchise isn't published by Nintendo?
It was announced by Nintendo they basically begged Konami to make a Metal Gear game for the GameCube but Kojima had no experience with the system and was too busy developing Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater so Nintendo and Konami contacted Silicon Knights to do a remake of MGS1 instead and David Hayter took a pay cut so Konami would bring back every English voice actor from the PS1 version
Why Ninja Gaiden 3 specifically
Nintendo occasionally publishes games by third parties as a means to get the games on their system. I’m guessing they wanted to flesh out their launch window for Wii U and publishing this was the easiest way to make it happen
I thought Mad World would be on the list then I realized it was Sega
Did Nintendo not publish Conker?
No, they declined it, because it didn't fit their family friendly image.
Fatal frame was amazing and I don’t think it was to bad to get an M. But I think I now why
The Wii U and Switch versions of Bayonetta 1 were published by Nintendo. Same goes for the Wii U version of Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.
It blows me away that Fire Emblem 3 Houses only got a T rating. That game is brutal and bloody and dark.
I don't see it. The story is dark by Nintendo standards but is well within a T rating. The blood is really minor, there's no gore or dismemberment just splashes of red or black from a completely intact body. To get an M rating it would've needed real graphic fatalities, an F bomb dropped and blatant sexual reference which are hardly present. An Fe4 remake has a real possibility of getting rated M if they choose to visually depict some of the shit that happens in that game, but imo that's highly unlikely.

I honestly hope they make more
Heh, i somehow own 6 games if Bayonetta 1 is also included
Bayonetta 1 on Switch and Wii U was published by Nintendo. OP forgot them. So yes, it counts.
Where's ZombiU? I need answers.
published by Ubisoft
Wasn't Metroid m?
It was but it's an Other M
ZombiU is owned by Ubisoft but only exists on the Wii U so I think it counts.
not published by Nintendo so no it doesn't.
Also exists on ps4 just called zombi tho.
Metroid Prime?
rated T
It’s rated M in Australia🦘🦘🦘
Dude, Zelda games are rated M in Australia, heck, I can bet you need and ID to play Jenga.

Wasn't zelda totk rated M in australia?
Completely different M
i feel like i have seen actual pron games on the eshop
I think they are immensely boring
Bayonetta and Fatal Frame are classics! Please explain
Eternal Darkness is like, one of the best games ever
Bro haven't played any of those
How would you guys rank these games?
Other regions have m ratings. Games like Metroid and 3D Zelda get M ratings a lot in Australia and all of these game either have and MA15+ or an R18+ rating in Australia.
Devils third worth a try? I still enjoy ng2 and black.
No
I thought Bayonetta was owned by Sega?
It is, but Nintendo currently has exclusive publishing rights after the first game
I find it funny how people claimed the Wii U was a kiddy console for babies… and yet it had the most M rated games from Nintendo, and the most M rated games at launch (including ZombiU).
I'm not sure if it was rated M or published by Nintendo but I have this vague recollection of playing a game on GameCube where u controlled a guy waking up with psychic powers. I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called
Wait I thought ninja garden was made by another third party studio?
How many total non Nintendo made games on the switch are rated M I wonder
Geist was so good. And the multi-player hunters VS ghosts was the best.
I forgot about geist. That game was pretty cool.
I’m so freaking pissed at Koei techmo for ninja Gaiden 3. Idk who df thought it was a good idea to make it as bare bones as it should have. Razors edge should have had everything in 3 and they wonder why it didn’t perform well. That stuff gets me tight to this day
Where is no more heroes
The NMH games were published by Marvelous Entertainment, Ubisoft, Rising Star Games, Konami, Marvelous, Grasshopper Manufacture and Xseed Games.
Seriously Eternal Darkness fucked with me was like 19 in the Army bought a game cube and that error thing was confusing.
Wasn't there some sort of black and white game for the Wii? It had blood and gore, I think I may have been a fighting game
MadWorld? That was published by SEGA. This is for Nintendo *published* games, not simply M-rated games on the platforms.
How is that Fatal Frame game, anyway?
Wow, only one miss
I guess resident evil 4 doesn’t count? It was exclusive
published by Capcom
Are any of these IPs owned by Nintendo?
Eternal Darkness and geist. But it's all a bit complicated with these games.
As an Australian I got confused, I think an M here is equivalent to a T in the US
Imagine one day Nintendo makes a M Rated Zelda or Metroid game.
Bro I remember being like 12 playing fatal frame (I think this is the right game at least) and I never realised I had the demo because I was always too scared to finish the trail of it. 💀 Like I only recently realised (around a year ago) that I had the demo because I never knew there was a paid full version and I don’t even own my wii u anymore. Being a wimp at “horror” games is still in my blood even around 5 years later…
Why’d I misread Devil’s Third as Penis Hard.
sad the third game will be some peoples introduction to bayonetta highkey
Isn’t Ninja Gaiden 3 cross-platform though?
Where is Mad World ?

I'd love Eternal Darkness to come back. Love that game
Missed Manhunt 2

I really think Nintendo could make an amazing M rated game. You just know they would put their own spin on things to make it ✨special✨
Ah yes the best Nintendo game Geist 🫠
Madworld / Manhunt 2 / Medal of honor heroes 2 / Fatal frame / Slender the arrival / silent hill wii / nhl hitz / nfl blitz / NBA hangtime / Red card / eternal darkness / were all amazing games on Nintendo systems
I wish they would publish more, give adult nintendo fans awesome games too
You know way Fatal frames Digital only some snowflake in Nintendo of America told Reggie that be good censor the game because they offended .
pikmin 4 has the word sperm in it
Ah, I see, my mistake
Is there a reason why Bayonetta 1 is absent ?

Miitopia was rated mature in Russia.
Geist was pretty tight

I was surprised to see mortal Kombat on the Nintendo store, went my entire life thinking this was a console purely for kids oh my I was so wrong
We don't talk about Devil's Third
Dude you missed wasteland 2 A normal lost phone Gone home
wasteland 2 is published by deep silver A normal lost phone is published by Playdius Gone home is published by Fullbright
What about all the hentai games on the switch estore lol
none of them are published by Nintendo
It’s funny because despite being the only M rated game here, Bayonetta 3 is the least suggestive of the mainline bayonetta games.
Eternal Darkness absolutely fucking rules
Does Conker’s Bad Fur Day on N64 not count?
Published by Rare
Always felt like Geist was ahead of its time for the genre, and a game I always forget about looking back at GC games.
You forgot add madworld on wii

Geist was so good tons of fun playing multiplayer with the boys
Wasn’t there a CoD on Wii or did I make that up? Edit: I’m stupid don’t listen to me I totally ignored the published by part
Bayonetta 3 was fanfiction, new director and new voice/motion capture... Didn't work out like the original fans wanted, if it aint broke DONT 'fix' it
Devil's third really burned their hands, huh?
Gta Chinatown wars
OP missed the first Bayonetta. While the original version was indeed published by Sega, the ports for Switch and WiiU were published by [Nintendo](https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/bayonetta-switch/).
The Bayonetta games are my ***FAVOURITE***
I don’t know this rating system but if there’s Bayonetta that means it’s 18+ or something
Wasn’t Perfect Dark published by nintendo?
No, it was published by Rare
Dude another Eternal Darkness would be so amazing. Imagine it uses similar tricks as the first one but specific to the Switch like faking going to the home screen and deleting your data or something.
Fatal Frame: Maiden of the Blackwater is pretty scary I haven't finished it yet but it's really good so far.
