Nintendo Gaming / Julian Eggebrecht Interview

« on: June 14, 2003, 12:57:23 AM »

as much as i am excited i still want to know how much depth is going into the multiplayer mode, and why there isnt going to be a lan feature.

I wouldnt care how much longer it would take to add on a lan feature it would be awesome!
Just think about 4 friends teamed up as rebel x wings and another 4 friends teamed up as imperial tie fighters omg!

I hope the multiplayer has a lot of modes and depth to it.

oh and big thumbs up to PGC for the interview!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nintendo Gaming / real time or turned base

« on: June 13, 2003, 08:17:12 AM »

First of all i can't believe anyone hasn't mentioned advanced wars

Second, Pokemon would be better as a turn based game for GBA anywayz.  These are some of my ideas to improve the current Pokemon GBA games though.  First, adding a defense option like when one person is choosing an attack the other could select a counter such as if a mankey tried a special punch then a fearow could use whirlwind and have a 25% chance of countering the attack for example.  Or if a Raichu used agility and it was able to work as a counter to a charizards flamethrower attack then both players choose a direction of attack or counter and if the directions they choose are the same then Raichu is hurt and if the directions are different then Charizard misses.  And then have the terrain effect the fights better such as if water is near by some pokemon can't try to counter in the direction of the water and others have an increase in countering or an added attack power.

Kinda neat idea i think anywayz.  what do u guys think?
Patend Pending, lol

Nintendo Gaming / Why don't Nintendo fans like Fighting Games?

« on: May 26, 2003, 09:20:47 PM »

OMG, i can't believe there are fighting game haters out there, sure its not going to be everybody's favorite.  Heck one of my favorite games back when i was a kid was streetfighter.  But as everybody has said, GCN just really hasn't had a real stellar fighting game.  I would get capcom vs snk eo but i simply hated sony and never followed the new capcom fighters and the gameplay is really weird to me now.

And Ive recently tried getting into the newer capcom ones at my friends houses and stuff but i can't get into it.  I still find myself firing up street fighter 2 on my snes instead.  And I've played the DoA series and it got old after like an hour, nothing really different about this game at all compared to tekken and SC.

In conclusion I just would like to say that the only real good fighting games released in the past 5 years or so are tekken 3, soul calibur, ssb, ssbm and virtua fighter 4.

Nintendo Gaming / Anyone else an outcast in their family..?

« on: May 24, 2003, 10:43:29 PM »

i can understand why they think it was dumb.  They prolly see it as you are losing money during the trade off.  Personally me i owned only Nintendo products untill about 5 months ago, because i wanted to get a ps2 for sports, action games, and etc.  I ended up not liking it pretty fast, then i started watching movies on it and it ruined my SIMPSONS DVD!!!!!!!!!!  So good thing I bought a 2 year warranty on the sucker!  Now im getting a check back and they said i could purchase whatever i want with it!  I've now decided to get a xbox due to the price drop and cause my friend always has a xbox lan thing going on and also im getting 6 free games!!!!!!!!

Im getting Halo, Shenume 2, mech assault, sega gt, jet set radio future, and fuzion frenzy.  I'm getting them free because microsoft gives out easy online training courses (5 question quizes) that they reward you with games and stuff, but only if u work for a retail store that sales xbox's though.  The website is www.microsoft.com/retail for those who are wondering.

Umm.  Your family and friends prolly still wanted to play those games.  You better get some fun party games for them!  Get Super Smash Bros Melee, Mario Party, TimeSpliters 2, Super Monkey Ball, etc.

Heck your friends are prolly pissed because you are the only one they know that has an xbox, lol (heck all i know personally is 2 ppl)  Dude just get some killer games and they will come around.  Heck just get Zelda WW, and that will shut their crap holes.

Nintendo Gaming / Star Fox

« on: May 18, 2003, 06:39:22 PM »

im going to have a hard time deciding on star fox or rebel strike, i might get both if there is a release date difference.  But I'm not sure.  Anybody know when it comes out?  they both just seem so good but i think im leaning more on the side of rebel strike.  Anybody else fell this way?

Great post man, just brilliant

Nintendo Gaming / Nintendo has something even bigger...

« on: April 24, 2003, 10:36:57 AM »

I cant believe nobody has mentioned ONLINE PLAY,  or some extreme LAN play!

Think about it Mario Kart, F-Zero, Pikmin2, and dare i say it Rogue Squadron III, and how about that new "AAA Title" from Climax(First person shooter).

Or maybe some kind of big Gamespy partnership to get this stuff online?

In my opinion I think Nintendo is doing the right thing, which is also what they have been planning all along.

First off lan is a great way to sell more systems, trusts me when younger people play this game they will practicly peer pressure all of their other friends to get it.  For example, pokemon (system link) sole reason why GBC sold so well.  Heck it worked for halo, I know like 2 friends that bought xbox cause they played halo at my friends lan party.

Also I remember PGC posting something about GameSpy being a current Nintendo developer or partner or whatever which means they are prolly getting GameSpy to set up all of nintendo's games for free just like nintendo said before about online plans.

Seems like thier plan is unrolling quite well.

Nintendo Gaming / Zelda TWW for someone who hasn't played Zelda since the original NES?

« on: April 01, 2003, 08:17:05 PM »

Man I totally agree with Sean, this game is one of those games that just has a magical touch that grabs you and beats the $hit out of you untill you are hooked, and thats why this one is an epic game.

Also I love this game and the last zelda game i played was "a link to the past", well actually i did borrow ocarina of time from a friend but i got stuck in the very beginning and never played it again then i got the bonus disk thing and i played the game to its fullest. I also own a Ps2 and ever since the release of Zelda WW my Ps2 has been sitting at my friends house and I dont even care to pick it up at all, heck I don't think I'm going to be getting another Ps2 game period.

Nintendo Gaming / Goody dont got it (Zelda: Wind Waker)

« on: March 24, 2003, 09:33:38 AM »

I reserved my copy at work a while back ago and I called them up today but they said that I they don't recieve it untill tommorow.  I work at Sam goody's and i was wondering are all stores doing this?

And if not then can i cancel my reservation even though i have my bonus disk?

And will I still recieve the bobble head with or without a reservation?

Geez If Denis reads this forum I wonder if Mr. Miyamoto does or anybody else from Nintendo.  lol.....I'm getting carried away.

Anyways truly great game Denis.  I just can't believe it hasn't sold more.  Truthfully I believe games like these only come every other generation.

Nintendo Gaming / Does the rest of your family play the cube?

« on: March 03, 2003, 05:22:24 PM »

First off I would like to say i am pleasantly surprised at how many girls are playing games in your guy's homes especially the younger ones!

Secondly hooray for all the zelda goers!

Third my dads played wave race and thats about it, my 23 year old sister only plays house of the dead on my Dreamcast, and my 16yr sister played a lot of games such as Battle Toads Double Dragon on Snes, and a bunch of Perfect Dark, and Wave race on Cube.  Two of my cousins were real hardcore gamers they even imported stuff like the Snes disk thing and a bunch of Dreamcast stuff and we had some hard fought Street fighter matchs back in the Snes days.

But MAN Resemvla_Syria u have one hell of a family!  I bet u guys settle disputes by playing video games,

Nintendo Gaming / Zelda is converting xbox fanboys!

« on: February 20, 2003, 12:14:17 PM »

Heck I work at a Sam Goody's and out of us all there is 2 GCN owners, 4 PS2 owners, and 4 xbox owners.  Just two weeks ago I was talking to some of the guys about if Sam Goody's was going to to the zelda preorder deal and none of them knew about it and didn't know if they were going to get it or not but once they heard about the deal they all got excited about it.  The next day I come in for work and it turns out they are doing the deal and 5 employees reserve it and 3 of them dont even own GCN's!  Heck even my manager reserved one!  Now i got this one guy totally excited about FF:CC!  My devious plans are working lol.
