The story from Go Nintendo
Oh yeah, these games will skyrocket the Wii into the heavens!
NOTE: Despite the sarcasm, I am actually glad that Nintendo is allowing many developers to make games for it and that its supporting new IPs. But its hard not to snicker at bit when watching the box art...
EDIT: Posted the link to the original story

Oh yeah, remember the Gingerbread man from the Shrek movies?

I think we actually need Teen Girl Squad Racing.
tines, Tines, TINES!
F#ck yeah! That would be so awesome.
Also, where is the box art for the Egyptian game?
What Egyptian game?

Ninja Bread Man sounds silly.
But the game that has me sold is Hamster Heroes. I love Hamsters and actually believe there is a lot of promise to a concept like this.
Unfortunately, I don't believe these titles will be given the effort they deserve to become great games.

MONStER tRUX EXtREMe gains points for inconsistent capitalization but loses points for not spelling it as "XtREMe". They got the "tRUX" misspelling right so why not go all the way? They optionally could have spelled it as "MONStA" as well.

Wow, what a huge disappointment!
The game is fugly, and going by that video, appears to have some major camera issues (notice how they cut away to another scene when the camera control gets out of hand)!
Not worth it, even at a "budget" price (which would be what, $29.99 for the Wii?).
Post by: KDR_11k on February 28, 2007, 05:27:19 AM
I wouldn't call it fugly, it looks about on par for a PS2 budget game.

How did you find out the names of the new bosses from the next Mega Man game?

And the reason I didn't link it to Go Nintendo was because the last time I did Bloodworth felt a tad annoyed by it, thinking that I was involuntarily promoting that website.
Plus the box art and screens came directly from the Developer's website, so it wasn't Go Nintendo's original story, so I didn't give direct credit to Go Nintendo.

QuoteTrue; but the fact remains that RMC's footing the bill here. Direct linking is against the rules at NWR. I have a feeling Bloodworth will be more annoyed by this than he would by a link to gonintendo.com.

I don't remember the particular indecent you're referring to, but chances are Bloodworth was "annoyed" because NWR was running the exact same story at GoNintendo. Since NWR currently doesn't have anything up relating to these games there's nothing you can do but link to another site.

I was talking about the newstory itself, not the images. I agree about the bandwith. Believe me, I UNDERSTAND IT, because I've worked on Cap and S_B's website and I know about the going ons of a site. I didn't feel happy doing it, but I simply don't have my web folder set up and like I said the guy that knows how to work with is too busy working on a personal project, so I don't have the heart to go and bug him about it. It was an act of desperation more than anything. But I won't do it anymore because I ain't happy doing it.
As for the incident, I don't remember exactly what post I made that involved linking to Go Nintendo, but I remember Bloodworth was annoyed because:
- He felt I was "promoting" that website
- He thought I was giving full credit to Go Nintendo when they just found it on another website
I explained to him that I wasn't promoting the website nor giving them full credit. I just thought the topic would make an interesting discussion at NWR and posted the link to it because that's where I found it.

Also, direct linking to media is always a no-no. Either put it on your webspace, link to the article where it's found, or don't bother.

You know if you have a URL to a image, you can just plug that into Imageshack and it will host it automatically? More work on your side to do it, but no bandwidth theft going on.

That I didn't know. I would gladly do the work rather than steal the bandwidth.
I will do that next time I want post a pic but can't upload it to my web folder.

If you guys prefer an alternative that also could have been used for the same purpose, it would probably be better to mention it rather then just complain about Imageshack.
