NWR Feedback / What happens to old topics?

« on: February 03, 2004, 10:39:51 AM »

Do they get deleted? Because I'm looking for one of my older topics, but I fear it has been deleted.

It was started by me, and called "Custom Game" and it was in the Gamecube Discussion forum.

Nintendo Gaming / Great idea for "Nintendo Flagship" title

« on: October 30, 2003, 01:13:23 PM »

It just came into my head. We all want a Mario launch title. But we also want Luigi. Here's the story:

Luigi has always been in the shadows of Mario. After returning to the Mushroom Kingdom, the gang sees that it is in ruins and Bowser is the cause of the trouble again. After a few battle with Mario and Luigi, Luigi is kidnapped. Mario is now on a mission to rescue his brother and save the mushroom kingdom. After a series of levels, MArio finally reaches Bowser. They have an epic battle, and jsut as Mario is on his way of defeating Bowser, Luigi jumps in and attacks Mario. Mario is surprised and beaten. He is improsened deep within Bowser's chambers.

---The second half of the game begins---

This is a complete different area than we have usually seen, because it is the dungeon, where all of Bowser's hencemen are; all the baddies! (Wario, Waluigi, etc.) Of course, Mario faces the plethera of the bosses ever seen throughout the titles. After escaping the dungeon, he heads to the Mushroom Kingdom to reclaim what is his. He again faces another plethera of bad guys, maybe some new types. After he reaches the castle and reaches the top, he must face off against Luigi and Bowser. Bowser will be the first phase, and when Bowser begins ot loose, Luigi pop's out and they have a 2 vs. 1. Bowser uses combo attacks with Luigi, etc.
Of course, Mario wins (some how, he might find Yoshi improsened on his way, as well). Bowser is blown awya, as usual, and Luigi is banned from the kingdom.

Of course, there is a variety of endings this game can take. This game can eb both 3D or 2D. I'd prefer 2D because this is a very large game.

Nintendo Gaming / How far are you in F-Zero?

« on: October 18, 2003, 08:39:02 AM »

I was just wondering how far everyone is.

So far, I've unlocked master level and diamond cup, beaten all chapters on easy (some on hard).

A question to anyone. What is the best combination for the perfect vehicle? I'm combined all A's to give me A in body, boost, and grip, but the turning is horrible. What should I do? And is unlocking the AX cup hard? Has anyone beat the cups on master level?

Another thing, what's a better attack, Z-spin or X-attack

Nintendo Gaming / Gamecube Outsells PS2 in Japan

Not the biggest news, but is surprising indeed. Even though it is a small 200 units, it may get bigger by next month (or not). Although it may have to do with the release of the new killer games in Japan.

NWR Feedback / PGC Site/Forums sometimes don't load

« on: August 15, 2003, 03:00:43 PM »

This has been happenign a while, but let me explain first.

I try going to planetgamecube.com and it is a white screen. So I refresh, again and again until about my tenth time. When it finally loads the ad. Then I go inside the site. I click on the article; same problem, white screen. Refresh a few times and it finally loads.

Now this problem has crossed over into the forums too, and gotten real annoying. I've spent about ten minutes just trying to post one topic. I think the core problem with this is the ads aorund PGC, maybe they are using some java or html that is screwing this up, but I have no idea, HELP PLEASE.

An article over at IGN explains it. Go take a read. I find it real dumb if Nintendo is heading in this direction.

Nintendo Gaming / Playing Gamecube Demo Disc in Manhattan

« on: August 08, 2003, 09:40:51 AM »

I was in the city the other day and my and my friends decided to head to Toys R' Us, and guess what we saw there; A GAMECUBE DEMO DISC! It was nothing special for me...having already played it, but when I saw the games that people choose, it was Soul Calibor II on the demo disc. NO\ot once did anyone even select Viewtiful Joe (unfortunately). I was thinking about playing VJ on the big screen to show off my skills and the game, but it was time to go.

On the side note, X-Box's most popular game was this new NBA street BBall game. The moves in the game very pretty awesome.

I guess the point of my topic would be is that Teen/Mature games seem to be the attraction these days.Of course we all knew that, didn't we.

Nintendo Gaming / Custom Game...

« on: July 17, 2003, 04:44:53 PM »

(I'm not sure which forum this would go in, but I'll let the moderators decide)

Imagine if you could create your own games? What would it be like? How long would it be? 2D or 3D? FPS? RPG? Would it be original? Would it be a sequal? Prequel? Would it be multiplayer (if possible)? Would it be LAN? Online? Adventure? Action? Mystery? Horror?

The possibilities are endless, but I've always been fascinated by new and innovative games, and I'd like to see how imaginitive the readers here can be.

Maybe we can even create our own game and submit it to Nintnedo, lol. I'll be posting up my own original idea up soon. But I'm all ears for what you guys can think of.

(Just pretend you have no cost limit, etc. But do try to act realistic to the fact that this game could be made onto one CD, etc.)

General Chat / Banned from "gaming"

« on: June 27, 2003, 05:08:27 AM »

Yes,  it's true, or at least my parents were talking about it. My mom stated that she watched some special on the discovery channel about a guy who played video games too much (she couldn't recognize the perticular title). This guy was a lso a real genius. Ok, so the story goes that he played TOO much video games and went crazy and murdered his whole family (this was after he was ticked off about something. They said the anger came from his obession of games).

Now after hearing this odd, one out of a billion, story my parents started stating the fact that I couldn't play video games any more...

What has the world come to? Does anyone have anything I can say to my parents that will reassure them that I won't go crazy over video games. And no, I'm not a crazy type of fellow....or at least I think I ain't.

Nintendo Gaming / Resident Evil 4...Going to the next level?

« on: May 26, 2003, 04:15:31 PM »

"You'll pee your pants"

Ah, what  awonderful phrase; hopefully, it doesn't come true for me.

To my point, I think this Resident Evil will be the mature kick that Nintendo needs. It seems a lot like Silent Hill. The thing I like most is the flashlight effect (for anyone who didn't see the RE4 video in E3. When Leon aims, he crosses over a flash light, which releases a blue hue). This will add a whole new dimension to the game because now you can have hidden creatures right in front of you without knowing it, if you aren't using the flash light. Then BAM, you are being sucked on the neck by a zombie. I also think this is a great chance for Capcom to make the control style almost perfect because the game is going to be in full motion. Now, we can finally see a stop from the bickering of all the RE fans that the control scheme sucks (Even though I thought it was perfect). In addition, I'm extatic that Leon is back. RE 2 was the game that got me into the series, and Leon was the character that was my most favorite. Now he is back and ready to kick ass.

Although I only hope Capcom come up with a storyline that won't be repetetive; I want it to be a whole new story. Maybe they can implement everything from RE 0 (Character swapping), RE 2 (different storylines for diff chars), RE 3 (Unsoppable monster that chases you every where).

General Gaming / I told you so...

« on: May 17, 2003, 06:51:45 AM »

Wasn't I the one who said that overspeculation would result in a big disappointment in E3?

See, maybe when next E3 comes around or Spaceworld, we'll cool are butts and just wait for the show to blow us away, rather than spoil it before hand.

Nintendo Gaming / Too human Confusion, help

« on: May 04, 2003, 06:38:51 AM »

I remember a long time ago, I think Spaceworld 2000, that there was FMV video footage of Too Human. I still have remaining pictures of the video, but not the video itself. But the thing that confuses me is that I can't find this video footage on any site anymore. On top of that, most people say footage has never been released. So my main problem is, was this really Too Human footage or am I just getting confused over a game that was cancelled and scraped?

Nintendo Gaming / Nintendo not as big as we think?

« on: April 27, 2003, 06:56:08 PM »

*Puts on hard hat, so bashing won't hurt as much*

I am just speculating, but has anyone come to think and sit down that Nintendo might be a big flop because we Nintendo fans keep raving endlessly about the things Nintendo will show at E3? We create so much hype and speculate so much, we ruin half the surprises. All we do is talk about Mario 128, New Zelda, Pokeomn RPG, more Merging, GTA titles, Kid Icarus, Online Gaming, etc. (I can go on, but I'll stop here).

When the day comes and Nintendo doesn't even scrape half of what we have speculated, mutilated, and bashed over 100 times, what will we do? Cry and whine that the show sucked? Yes, that's what we will do. Then we will eventually go on to blame Nintendo for their non-aggressive style, but has it ever crossed your minds that you are the most hardcore of console fans. We know stuff that most Gamecube owners don't.

Just an early warning: If Nintendo isn't as BIG as you think they will be. Don't whine and cry that it sucked, blame yourself for your misery. :-p

Good day, good night, and have a happy May.

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

« on: March 01, 2003, 05:03:16 PM »

I've been reading a lot of topics lately, and many people have been referring to their moms, dads, sisters, brothers, aunts, etc., who also play the games.

I just thought we'd dedicate a topic to the diversity of games that Nintendo actually spreads across the world.

Nintendo Gaming / Animal Crossing, what's soo good about the game?

« on: March 01, 2003, 11:05:39 AM »

The topic says it all. What makes this game soo great?

To me it just looks like the sims in an animal verison. A game which would get very reptitive within one week.

Nintendo Gaming / Beetle Adventure Racing

« on: February 15, 2003, 10:56:26 AM »

I absolutely loved this game on N64, and I was hoping if anyone had any news about this game.

Me and my friends loved this multiplayer (more than Mario Kart, in fact). We also loved the lelvels and style of racing they had. Any words of wisdom?
