The violence of Goldeneye 007 has Nintendo so concerned that a ridiculous alternate ending has been suggested

save the world with James Bond movie It’s not exactly torture porn, but it’s there And always an expectation of violence. Armies of minions, various minions, and the big baddies themselves aren’t going down after all. However, that hasn’t stopped a Nintendo legend from suggesting a ridiculous alternate ending for the legendary golden eye 007which would have qualified the game for the weirdest 007 ending ever.

in the documentary the golden age , various people involved or knowledgeable about the creation of the classic James Bond video game from Rare tell amazing and crazy stories about its creation. They Rare video game recently re-released has a lot of tidbits to delve into, including the story of how Nintendo was concerned about the violence and even considered canceling golden eye 007 total.

The ridiculous alternate ending suggested for Goldeneye 007

Game author and journalist Simon Parkin shared the big story you’re about to read, involving game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. The man behind the tiebreakers likes Super Mario Bros. And The Legend of Zelda suggested a rather bizarre mission that James Bond would be involved in after the events of golden eye 007which Parkin recalled in the following story:

There is a well-known story that Martin Hollis tells about the end of game development, he received a fax from Shigeru Miyamoto, who is still the most famous game designer in the world, and he certainly was at the time, giving us his thoughts on Goldeneye . . and saying that he doesn’t like violence. He says it’s a bit tragic, and at the end of the game you as agent 007 can’t visit the hospital ward, where all the people you defeated in the game aren’t they more or less underground? And you can’t walk around the beds shaking everyone’s hand? It’s obviously a very entertaining story, but it also illustrates, I think, something about Nintendo and Miyamoto’s approach to game design, and probably their nervousness about a game like Goldeneye coming out on their flagship hardware.

Can you imagine dropping an entire satellite on Alec Trevalyan after his attempts to assassinate and betray you, only to find him and his henchmen in a hospital? Is it even possible to shake hands with Sean Bean? golden eye crazy and not looking for a mini satellite dish to try and beat him?

Of course, the absurdity of this idea comes through quite easily, as the James Bond series has taught us that you can’t just walk away after trying to take over the world. The same cannot be said for a very popular game publisher and the ability to abandon a game in which he was losing faith.

Why Nintendo almost canceled Goldeneye 007

However, these concerns from Nintendo weren’t just conveyed to director Martin Hollis. What golden eye 007 Lead artist Karl Hilton remembered the golden ageNintendo’s notes on Pierce Brosnan’s 007-era origin adaptation boiled down to a few core components of the franchise being translated:

It was feared that it might not be a very Nintendo-like product. We were repeatedly told it was too dark and violent. To which our response was, “Well, it’s dark because the movie is dark and it’s violent because it’s James Bond and it’s killing people.”

What could be more absurd than imagining Commander Bond shaking hands with everyone he couldn’t kill? try not to have golden eye 007 start! Apparently, Nintendo executives were so unsure of Rare’s release of the game that, according to Simon Parkin, cancellation was still considered an option late in the game’s development:

They even said at one point: “We’re not sure. Maybe we’ll just cancel.” Because they’d rather lose that money and preserve their reputation as a publisher of great games than take back some of that money and publish something else mediocre.

The history of James Bond video games is far from perfect, especially when something like this 007 Legends they still exist in the world. For example golden eye is considered essential For the modern success of the Bond films, the Nintendo 64 game it spawned is just as important as the games that will bear the 007 name. This is a very important thing to consider now that project 007 it is currently under construction and ready to usher in a new era of 00-gaming.
