Nintendo Gaming / RE:Nintendo Licensing music?

« on: August 04, 2003, 09:39:26 AM »

maybe nintendo should make some songs made by bands exclusive to the game (ex: I think Offspring did for crazy taxi)
I think it all depends on the song chosen for the game.  Some modern songs can outdate a game very quickly.  However, some songs are such classics that they not only would it add to the gameplay experience, but it would also make new fans who could appreciate the music more.
A win-win situation for both nintendo and the artist.

Nintendo Gaming / Nintendo Licensing music?

« on: August 03, 2003, 08:39:30 AM »

Has nintendo every licensed music from well known bands for any of their games?  I am not one to complain about this issue since nintendo has made great soundtracks for their first party games (ex: zelda and mario).  However, I think it would be kind of neat if they did so for some upcoming games such as 1080 snowboarding or f-zero.  
I think the most daring thing nintendo has every done that is close to licensing music is that they licensed clothing (I think it was tommy hilfiger clothing in the N64 version of 1080)
anyone else agree? Disagree?

Nintendo Gaming / mario party or monkeyball?

« on: July 10, 2003, 07:13:15 PM »

I heard super monkeyball 2 has a tennis multiplayer that plays extremely similar to mario tennis, is that true?  If it is I think I am sold on the idea of getting super monkey ball 2
Also, can anyone explain in-depth about the new mini games added to mario party, just so I can get a sense of what I am in for if I do purchase this game.
thanks in advance

Nintendo Gaming / mario party or monkeyball?

« on: July 10, 2003, 09:47:43 AM »

I am looking for a good party game to add to my collection.  So far I have narrowed it down to mario party 4 or Super Monkeyball 2 (haven't played the first one).  My friends and I dont really care about graphics, just good gameplay.  
I have been looking at reviews of the two titles and it seems they have been getting the same scores (8 or 9 out of 10).  I needs someones input to help me make a wise decision on which title to choose.  Someone help!

Nintendo Gaming / Killer Instinct Lives?

« on: June 18, 2003, 06:01:39 PM »

Hi, this is my first post here on this website.  You guys seem like a knowledgeable bunch that might be able to help me answer a question that I have not seen any clear answers too.

Killer Instincts was one of my favourite games for the N64.  The music, the style, and the combo system all came in one good complete bundle.

When Rare was bought out by x-box, we all new knew of which game mascots were no longer with nintendo (ex: perfect dark, conker, banjo-kazooie).  However, no one really mentioned anything about Killer Instincts.  Is it part of Rare or Nintendo?  If it is still part of Nintendo, have they even mentioned anything about releasing an updated version for the Cube?
