Nah I think I was stupidly thinking of someone else. LOL never mind.

The compression on the newer videos is just trash and I have a terrible TV.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #83 on:** May 29, 2008, 02:23:44 AM »

The newest videos are up. Some include the Wiifit event,Guitar Hero 3, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2. The Wiiware titles this week and last week have videos as well. I noticed that Mushroom Men is gone. I think that this will be a problem for smaller developers trying to get attention for their titles while being overshadow by bigger developers.The DS demos have changed to the ones that were previously available.

Yeah... hmm... obviously the Nintendo Channel is not a silver bullet. Perhaps if Nintendo can somehow push game recommendations....

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #85 on:** May 29, 2008, 02:35:50 AM »

Thank you Kairon for pointing that out Nintendo has truly thought of everything.

Kairon · « **Reply #86 on:** May 29, 2008, 02:45:06 AM »

Is that sarcasm I detect?

Anyways, you're completely right though Maxi. A week on the Nintendo Channel is hardly enough, especially if it costs these companies to put their stuff there. The Nintendo Channel has to be a celebration of everything Wii, and I'd MUCH prefer much more visible third party games.

It may just be the release scheduel though. Nintendo should emphasize games releasing within a month, and hopefully all of Nintendo's "let's leave Pokemon videos up there for a long time" fervor dies down a bit to make space for new releases from their partners.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #87 on:** May 29, 2008, 03:11:24 AM »

I guess that was sarcasm. Although that was not intent. I knew about the recommendations. I just didn't want to come up with something viewed as rude or anything like that. With the videos I guess we will have to keep a eye on release dates and such to determine what Nintendo and third parties do with the service. And I have to agree about the Nintendo and third party ratio. There has to be balance.

This channel is STUPID. It forces you to say whether a game is for gamers or non-gamers, and if it's "casual" or "hardcore". HELLO WHAT ABOUT BOTH, WHICH IS THE EXACT MARKET YOU'RE TARGETTING. Same goes for if it's a boys or girls game. Completely stupid.

RABicle · « **Reply #93 on:** May 30, 2008, 12:13:52 AM »

UGH
This channel is a complete fucking joke.
I spent a good half hour going through rating everything (which by the way is tucked behind 2 or 3 menus, great fucking interface Nintendont) and then expected all the complex data I'm sending away to be used meaningfully. Fucking wrong, instead when you search for recommended games you either get EVERYTHING or NOTHING in the results/. Apparently it can't recommend me a single hardcore gamer's game for the male 19-24 year old market. Further more it gives all it's results alphabetically so no one will ever bother to scroll past 1080 Actraiser and Apollo Justice. Speaking of which, how can it recomend Apollo Justice for me (it did when I made the parameters everything) when you can't rate DS games? This is some sorta fucking crime.

And it takes up like 250 fucking blocks. I had to delete more **** just to fit this **** on my wii!

blackfootsteps · « **Reply #94 on:** May 30, 2008, 01:35:15 AM »

But how can you guys say all of that when we clearly got the best demos ever:
Brain Training
Maths Training
Sight Training
Mario Kart

Hmmph.

RABicle · « **Reply #95 on:** May 30, 2008, 02:00:37 AM »

Oh yeah. Fucking Mario Kart? are they for re- YES OF COURSE THEY'RE FAIR DINKUM PEOPLE WOULD BE GOING INO THAT MARIO KART DS PURCHASE BLIND! NO ONE HAS EVER EXPERIENCED A GAME LIKE THAT BEFORE

KDR_11k · « **Reply #96 on:** May 30, 2008, 03:00:13 AM »

Yeah, definitely needs a "both" or "indifferent" option. I rate almost every game as for 12 year olds (funnily it complained about MP3C because 12 year olds aren't allowed to play that) because I can't meaningfully say "works for everyone". Or do they expect me to input my own age?

shammack · « **Reply #97 on:** May 30, 2008, 07:52:26 AM »

In the US, the questions are the age and gender of the person in your household who enjoyed the game the most.

Smoke39 · « **Reply #98 on:** May 30, 2008, 08:05:43 AM »

Which are fairly meaningless questions unless the full spectrum of ages of both genders are represented in your household.

Ah, that makes more sense, the question is worded "who do you think this game is more suited for" here

Not really, they're collecting data from many households and combining them.
