Xenosaga DS might be the first game in the series that gets brought to Europe. After all, Nintendo brought over Tales, perhaps they'll bring XS, too? Why they didn't use hand drawn character portraits instead of those ugly rendered ones is beyond me, after all they seem to be using hand drawn story sequences.
What's the last game from that list there, Toruresu?

Traditional basketball game > You move the joystick, the player moves if he is allowed to dribble and auto dribbles for you.
DS basketball game > you move the joystick and the player moves. If you don't start dribbling, you turn the ball over. You also have to be careful not to double dribble etc. Sounds really interesting.

It's a neat idea and it would be good for a game that strives for realism. But is it really going to be that fun to manually dribble? I suck at dribbling in real life. Part of the reason NBA Jam is one of my favourite games is that I don't have to worry about stuff like that. I just get the ball, run up the court and "BOOMSHAKALAKA!!"
Stimutacs Addict's got the right idea. Choosing exactly where to pass or shoot would add a lot more strategy to the game. In real sports you can pass to where the intended receiver isn't with the expectation of them getting past their check to get it. With a regular pass button you automatically pass to where the player is. Shooting with a button is usually based on court position and stats and stuff. Here there would be less randomness. Dribbling is just tedious. I can't see much reason to not have auto dribbling other than novelty value.

Nintendo wants to simplify things for non-gamers and the DS design was part of that plan. Yet here they have a basketball that requires you to manually dribble which is way more complex than any traditional basketball game that dribbles for you.
You act as if Nintendo is developing the game and not Square Enix. You also act as if it was Nintendo's idea to even make the game.

Thus why I'm bringing up the concern over manually dribbling.
Anyway it's still rather ironic that the DS is designed to simplify gaming and here is an example of the DS features potentially making a game more complex. It's still the opposite of what Nintendo planned for the thing even if it's all Square Enix's idea.

That's nice. And it would be relevant too if Nintendo owned Square Enix. But they don't. I also notice you dodged my question on whether you would want Nintendo to turn Square Enix down. Waiting for an answer on that front.

You know that you don't have to reply or even read all of his post, you could just skip over it. I personally don't have anything against the man, but I tend to skip over his post all the time(mostly just the long ones), only going back to read them if I have the time and/or if someone quotes his post, I'll go back and read it trying not to take the quote out of context.
Most of his post are a little on the bitchy/whiney side, picking at whatever detail there is to pick at, but I find it funny sometimes, annoying other times, but it always seems to drum up a conversation/debate, and that is healthy for the life of the forums.

If it was my intellectual property I would turn them down. I would tell them that Mario is a little too overexposed right now and to maintain his selling power I was going to use him more sparingly. I would instead ask them if there are any other franchises that aren't so overexposed they were thinking of using and if not offer to publish an original idea as a Nintendo exclusive for the next few years. They can't take the new franchise Nintendo published on the DS and put it on the PS3, but they retain the rights to it and after the exclusivity agreement is up they can do whatever they want with it.

I wouldn't say that though I have heard other people use that logic. I think it depends on who the person is. Some people never seem to EVER question anything Nintendo does and love every single game. That's pretty weird. That sort of behaviour suggests fanboyism. You figure there be at least some games released that the person admitted were well designed but just weren't their cup of tea. Even in the heydey of the SNES Nintendo still occasionally released something I just didn't really care for.
It's when someone agrees with everything, quotes PR speak as if it actually means something, and defends everything Nintendo does that I see someone as a blind fanboy.

That is where the idea that the touch screen will be used for dribbling comes from.
Other screens seem to point otherwise though, so I wonder if that particular screen is just from some mini game or something.
Anyway, I seriously like the idea of forcing people to dribble (as I've already said).
I don't think it should require any precision... It should be one hundred percent rhythm based... you get some serious basketball realism then..
For example. In a real game of basketball, if you are dribbling quickly and low to the ground, the ball is harder to steal. Most steals happen when someone is relaxing and dribbling high and slow. You could translate this to the game. If you tap the screen quickly, it will be harder for opponent's to steal the ball, but you may grow physically tired, so you have to decide when the best time to tap the screen quickly would be. I really like the idea, at least as it is in my head, and I hope its included. It has all the makings of a new basketball game standard (it could be done with just a button) and I have a feeling if Nintendo ever wanted to revive the Courtside franchise, it could be a major selling point (which the rev could take even farther with motion!).

The DS exists to provide options. Simplicity is an option, complexity is an option. You can go either way, or even both in some cases. Nintendo is simply pushing simplicity because simpler games are more likely to attract non-gamers and expand their audience. They're still making complex games, even games more complex than before, but they're not pushing them because the people that are buying them already know about them.

QuoteMaybe it's just me, but I don't think i've see anyone that will not ever question Nintendo. What I have seen, though, is people that will defend something that the "consensus" rejects. i.e. cartridges for N64, not going "Online", WiFi only, Revolution controller, etc. , whatever... Is defending something so "obviously" wrong, as judged by the consensus, fanboyism?

What i've also seen are people that criticize Nintendo no matter what, even in the face of many many other good things. Almost as if Nintendo should revolve around them. The may have arguments you could agree with, even actively enjoy Nintendo games/systems, but you'd figure there would be at least something, or one post, where they could entirely praise Nintendo without damning them for something else in the same/next sentance.

You can't blame people like that though *cough*Ian*cough* because they're just incredibly pessimisstic. It's not that they're actually stupid or trying to be a jerk or anything...that's just their perception of the situation...and probably most situations, which is kind of sad now that I think about it.

1) Camelot is working on a Revolution RPG.
2) Camelot mentioned that Goldun Sun is an entire RPG world, and what we've seen is just the begining of the story.
3) They mentioned in an interview a long while ago that they wished to incorporate more creative out-of-battle psyenergy abilities, which the Revolution would be perfect for.

And thus screw all ties with Square Enix forever. For God's sake, Ian, the dev we've been trying to take back for ten years is giving us full 3D Final Fantasy 3, a long-awaited sequel to Mana, (not to mention the blol, Tingle RPG), I'm thinking Nintendo's pretty gosh darn happy with themselves, if Square Enix wants you to frucking dribble a ball Nintendo's going to let them. But, of course, this is Ian's world, I shouldn't meddle with authority like that.

I kind of suspected FFIII would be in 3d, since it's been in development for so long. Having it in 3D now makes it a major DS exclusive. If it were just in 2d with roughly Snes quality visuals, the casual gamers probably wouldn't care much. Sure, it would have sold well, but it wouldn't be a system seller. Now that it's in 3d the casual gamers will more likely associate it with the console FF's, and will want to buy a DS for this.
Tingle RPG? Nintendo must be reading my mind.
Tales DS. That's all I ever really wanted from Namco on the DS. Thank you. I think it should be called "Tales of Dual Screenia".
But, yeah. Best system ever.

I guess I've answered my question. Poor Ian. This might be his lasting legacy on the site but I couldn't help myself. It was just so hilarious at the time and is still good for a laugh. Funny, these days, Ian actually isn't that bad. He has calmed down quite abit. But, I'm getting happily sidetracked.
Yes, the real reason for this bump (since Unclebob and ThePerm seem to have taken a break on their bumping duties) is to just see what people are thinking about the new Wario: Master of Disguise game. For whatever reason, I've been really excited waiting for this game to come out.
Unfortunately, IGN put a bit of a damper on the whole thing by giving it a 6 out of 10. Now, I think they might be a bit off base here but I'm interested to see what NWR has to say about it and everyone else.
I don't normally buy games when they come out right away since I find I can always get them cheaper if I wait a bit. (I've become addicted to video game bargin hunting.) I was really thinking about making an exception for this game but I'm thinking I'll wait again now and see what people's impressions are.
EDIT: Jonny just posted a news story that Wario is now for sale. Looks like its time to sit back and let the impressions pour in.
