TalkBack / RE:Nintendo Makes Final Preparations for Wii Launch

« on: November 01, 2006, 10:45:51 AM »

The number of games available for release makes the Gamcube release list seem small. I remember that was huge back then. I think the N64 launched with like 5 games? Maybe less. O_O

This is f*cking disgusting.

I'm going to really miss lik-sang. I've ordered from them a few times, and they're great. This sucks so much!! There's so much I want from lik-sang!! X__X

This is just Sony trying to get back some of its losses for thew whole laptop battery scandal. Ugh.

Okay, all and any remaining respect for Sony has been lost now.

And Contact and Rocket Slime are skipped completely?

I really doubt the release list is complete... they never are from NOE. Games will sneak in... I'm hoping Pokemon Diamond/Pearl will sneak in somewhere early 2007. *crosses everything*

They've translated Baldur's Gate 2 and f'in Civilization quicker than this.

Maybe there's a lot of jokes in their that take a lot of time to translate?? X__X
Or Capcom are lazy.

I think maybe it was only in the PAL release.

Remind me of WWF No Mercy on the N64. A bug meant that no custom-wrestlers could be saved. They offered to replace the cart to fix the problem... so I sent them the cart and got a replacement.

They not only fixed the bug, but they removed the blood from the game.

I'd rather have just kept the game with blood. If they'd told me they wanted to remove the blood... bah.

You think they'll do the same with Bubble Bobble?    Remove the blood??

TalkBack / RE:Harrison Speaks at Camp Hyrule

I have been planning to buy the GCN version of Twilight Princess always... I am not convinced AT ALL by the Wii version's controls. The GCN controller is much more suited, in my opinion, to a game like Zelda. It was great for Wind Waker and will be great for Twilight Princess.

So this new bit of news changes nothing for me.  ^_^

The already lame wii version just got lamer, but I dont care as long as I get my GC original. Although to be honest at this point Im very doubtful of the quality of the game. First it seemed just like some tacked-in remote functions, the main game apparently wasn't altered, but that was because most of us were deluded thinking the game was near completion, the truth is the game has never been close to that, and this split in focus can only mean both versions will be not as good as expected. Ocarina took nearly the same development time and it was just one control scheme they had to keep in mind, and anyone who has played Ocarina knows the game gravitates around the N64 controller, from simple gameplay mechanics to even dungeon level design. I have no clue how they expect to surpass what Ocarina did with this two versions which unfortunately all they do is to limit or hurt the other one.

I think the GCN version was some way to completion. They had the engine in and the graphics were there, and it looked like the early areas of the game were complete at least. I wouldn't worry about how complete the game is... it is easier to develop for Gamecube than on N64, and the Wind Waker engine must have helped cut down on development time too.
It is unfortunate about releasing two versions, as it does split opinion between the two - rather than concentrating on the one game and its greatness.

Will the bug affect European/UK versions of the game??

I'm worried, because I live in the UK.
If it is affected, It won't happen until August, as that's when the game was released here.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Wireless Wavebird Controller?

« on: December 04, 2003, 05:23:08 AM »

1st Post ever: Whoo.

The Wavebird is brilliant. Any pad that let me play my games from DOWNSTAIRS and/or not have to worry about the cables tangling up, is more than worth the money you pay for it (about £30 here).
Also the battery power last aaages - I've only had to change mine twice, and I got the WaveBird last Christmas!  ^.^
