"Your honor, my religion forbids me from judging people. Only God may judge."

If someone pulls this out, you stand up and say "Your honor, I just converted."

I'll wait to pick up the Kong Prime Trilogy in 2019

Wouldn't that be the Talkback forum?

Word of advice for anyone coming in internationally - do NOT tell the customs agent that you're coming to watch Iwata "drop the bomb". They don't like that. :)

Just woke up from one that scared the crap out of me.

I work in a call center and thankfully have not had a call where I'd have to calm down a suicidal customer. My dream started with that scenario, so I'm calling 911 and getting transferred to the location of the caller based on caller ID, while he (it sounded like a male voice) was saying he was going to kill himself.

I get the 911 operator online... and there's a loud *bang*, then I wake up.

... I need a new job.

As a rule, I trust .fr websites about as far as I can throw them.

Not only is Dark/Ground a new combo, but that new ability it has (translates to "Overconfidence", roughly) which gives it a 1-stage Attack boost EVERY TIME it KOs something... whoamg.

The Crazy Taxi port will hopefully not be based on the PS2/Gamecube versions, but I suspect it will. Which means no bringing guys to the Original Levis Store, the newer (not as good) voicework... and NO OFFSPRING. Criminal.

Let's get the world's largest Shamwow in there. It comes from Germany, and you know the Germans make good stuff.

I'm looking for it to drop in price, but it's an Atlus game so I don't expect it any time soon.

« on: June 09, 2010, 12:35:38 AM »
Hey look!  Another DSi XL model for no one to give a damn about because the 3DS has already been announced.

(That said, if I were to get a DSi XL model, this would be the one.  It's just my color.   ;) )

Damnit, you stole my comment.

It got outsold by Scribblenauts and that was across 4 platforms. Somewhere around 650k-700k.

It was the "top selling new IP of 2009" according to NPD, but that was a revenue based metric and of course, this game launched at $120/$200.

It's a 2 hour presentation, so Nintendo should show what Retro is working on.

You sure this is accurate? They've knocked everything out in an hour the last couple of years. (And a full third of both have been embarrassing at best for all involved, but we won't talk about that...)

At this point they have two choices with VC:
1) Guarantee a game a week
2) Put a bullet in it

Sadly, 2 is more likely at this point.

It's currently scheduled for a "2010" release in Japan, but it's not out yet.

So I've already passed Lindeman in my Mario Galaxy 1 party? AWESOME!

Though I can see why he jumped out at 15 stars - I nearly quit after the first surfing and ball rolling sequences. I think now that I'm through the first 3rd of the game it's picking up now. (I meant to play through 1 before playing 2 but somehow managed to lose my copy and wasn't able to find it until after 2 launched).

The Now Playing segment wasn't that bad, unless I missed something.

I'm also one of the people who sides with Rock Band in the plastic instrument arms race, but that's largely because I'm looking for a straight music game, with none of the boss battle stuff Guitar Hero introduced after Harmonix jumped and seems to be bringing back for Warriors of Rock. That and Raining Blood. **** that song.

Rock Band did put out track packs, but with the exception of the AC/DC one they were all compilations of DLC and - most importantly - $20. Any urge I had to get back into Guitar Hero was lost when they launched Aerosmith at full price - same reason why I'm not buying Green Day until it gets to $15 on Amazon. And yes, Lego Rock Band was a WTF moment, but the Lego part was kinda fun and it had The Final Countdown.

Edit: I just want to make sure the rules for the contest are right.
The Noodle Incident recently bleeped involved the following: Jonny, Karl, Mike, Neal, Lauren, and Jon finished the Drunkcast, some indy developer gave the group a gift related to a game discussed with Karl recently and a catchphrase discussed in the same episode. Whoever comes up with Greg's favourite story that explains the Noodle Incident and e-mails it to rfn@nintendoworldreport.com gets an autographed-by-James copy of King of Clubs, and the incident is un-Noodled assuming a sufficient number of entries.

Doing it:
~ EA
~ THQ

Considering it:
~ Activision (specifically, Treyarch)
~ Ubisoft
~ Sega

This generation blows.

Bring me the Ghibli game and I'll be set for life.

Question: Is the next one going to be Mario, so I can avoid the thread when the inevitable Mario 3/Mario World slapfight starts?

Are you considered tall by the native Japanese?

Or to put it another way, have you ever executed a Gaijin Smash in your travels?

Fury of the Storm may be the only song that would be harder to play than Through the Fire and Flames from 3.
