Nintendo Gaming / Re: The Wii U as a stepping stone.
« on: February 15, 2015, 09:06:55 PM »
I think the best option for Nintendo is to make an OS and program language that can easily be used for both systems.
This would allow Nintendo to link games where it makes sense and not where it doesn't make sense.
For example:
Virtual Console could be linked to one account and play games on both systems with one purchase. This makes sense.
Some games Like New Super Mario Games, and Fire Emblem games could exist with one purchase on both systems and be slightly scaled down on the portable.
However, some games could be console and portable exclusive. For example a new Zelda pushing the hardware limits could be only available on the console system, and a portable Pokemon only available on the home system...but perhaps they could design a mode for both that allows you to enjoy the game in a special way if you have both systems.
I don't think Nintendo wants to both consoles the same...and not get the sales from both. However, Nintendo wants to make development of games cheaper on both systems, and create an infrastructure where they have the most freedom possible to release games on their systems.

I was reading over the Crisis Mafia game.
First, I apologize that I never proofread anything. Second. Man, that game was crazy...I wish I had the energy to do something like that again.
It also makes me wish we can have gifting of games on Wii U and prize mafias again.

« on: February 14, 2015, 02:00:40 AM »Good game to the mafia, they did exactly what needed to be done.
I had the assist trophy from the Day 1 vote, but did not know if it was the Nightmare or the Nintendog. If it was the Nintendog than the mafia could wasily vote for anyone they wanted and they would have 3 votes, the townies would not know where to target their votes. Nightmare would have been a hope as it randomized votes after it was played, but I just thought it was too risky to play.
This was wise. Because well the mafia could have voted for the same person 3 times, and hopefully the randomization meant that a different person would get 3 votes. Some of the items were just too Kooky for strategy.

thatguy: Please understand...I am not crediting my play for the victory at all. All I am saying is my dumb luck of killing the doctor and being able to vote out you was crucial to the victory. It would have made it much harder if that was not the case.
In fact, I nearly put the entire mafia at risk trying to save Pokepal, and really I should have let him die, because of his item...which we talked about...but I figured having him alive is better than dead, because the next day he would have been voted out...giving us another day with a hit.
I actually did not play a good game, and I credit Mop It Up and Nickmitch both with being better concealed and playing a stronger game.
The items changed the game...but I don't think the number of mafia players was off, because it could have done very differently...
For the record, I tried to play the game like I normally do as a townie. I talked to people, role played, through out wild accusations. Was willing to vote first, because of my time schedule. My problem is exactly what you mentioned...in PMs if you act like you believe someone long enough, but don't change your actions you are giving away your guilt. I was trying to act as if I didn't totally trust you...because really if I was a townie, I wouldn't know if I could.
I also was contemplating hitting egamer earlier, but decided not to, because it would have seemed too obvious a mafia move potentially confirming Pokepal and me as mafia. Now that I think about it...I should have because it was fairly obvious what role he had...but hindsight is 20/20.

Actually, Hypo played quite well for a townie. Managed to guess accurately 2 mafia with heavy suspicion on the 3rd. If he had stuck to his guns townies could be in a better position.
Ceric the mafia has to know all its members...that is thegame, can a small minority with knowledge beat a vastly larger majority without knowledge.
The mafia got extremely lucky, killing the doctor day one...that and finding the whore made it easier.

egamer: Don't feel bad. The first 3 games I played I was killed day one...a tradition that thankfully is broken these days is killing the newest player first. Then Khush PMed during games and taught me a lot.
Most of the talking happens in private messages if you want to try and trust people. You can read votes or try to...but honestly it is hit and miss. However, what you do in private messages and who you trust and how you verify is important. Basically, if you are a townie the only hope you have is to take a risk and trust another person...talking to them in PMs.
I had no idea that you were the detective and I was looking for wording or hints but didn't see any. You did a good job hiding. Unfortunately for you, I got very lucky on my hits and people you inspecting getting voted out or killed...you never could build an alliance.
Honestly, items played very little in this victory. 2 items were used in this game...and I agree one was overpowered...however, townies were still going to lose 2 people that day...it would have been 3 to 4...still plausible...but harder.
I think the biggest imbalance was knowing what item number your item was. That gave mafia a huge advantage because we knew how to use our items or collect them. I really liked most of the aspects of the items, but thought they were too powerful...my initial ideas for items tweaked the game, but were less powerful I think.

I have to say...I am happy the mafia team won...and Nickmitch and Mop_it_up did a great job hiding their roles.
I feel I didn't do a great job.
But I will say this mafia victory is partially due to the fact that (I believe) the detective did not play the game actively.
My suspicion is that the detective was inactive which lead to the townies not having good information.
The item idea was interesting...next time I think not knowing the item number placement would be better for balance.
and finally, just like the real game Smash Balls are too powerful...so I give extra points for accuracy in replicating the game.

I blame inactivity for the townies position.
I am beginning to believe the Detective was given to an inactive player...which basically screwed the townies from the beginning. It would have been a different game if the detective was active.

Random votes don't count because of tripping. That vote is deleted by the moderator, and the player must actively pay attention and re-vote.
Yes just like Brawl...breaking the game, by adding something meaningless.

Didn't vote yesterday...and because Khush won't tell us about items being given out we don't know if Hypotheliciously was telling the truth about the Smash Ball.
I am going to go ahead and vote for an inactive player seeing as we need all the active players alive at this point.
Vote: Stevey

The thing the Wii did right which will in my mind bring it to top 3 every time...is the virtual console. The Wii U hasn't done it as good...and the Xbox 360 and PS3 played catch up, because Nintendo was able to get 6-7 different console games onto the system for download play. Making them better than the originals and bringing back classic gaming to be popular again...legally. The prices were fair and I loved playing the classics over again.

Hypotheliciously: I have been through this in my mind a 1000X and I think the best thing to do is make sure your item doesn't fall into mafia hands.
I think others have that same idea. Yesterday played out exactly how it should have. Once thatguy revealed his role he was dead. The mafia hit wasn't about you...it was about getting rid of a townie role. Now, unfortunately you have 2 votes against you. It sucks...but Mop it Up did the wisest thing for a townie. By voting for you first she has ensured the townies get your item.
Now it is just a waiting game. The mafia might try to keep you alive one more turn and try to steal your item. But honestly it is too much of a risk for the mafia to reveal their role by voting for you first.

Hypotheliciously I wish you didn't say you had the Smash Ball. At this moment it is best that the townies keep you alive.
If you die to vote it is a big risk that the Smash Ball falls into mafia hands. If you live it means the mafia will probably kill you in a night action, but they don't get the Smash Ball...nobody does.
This is one reason I changed my vote. I also don't believe Khush would have handed out the most powerful items to players with roles...unless it was truly random. So I believe you are 100% innocent and probably just a regular townie.

"I'm even thinking of making a game of that for the NWR forums but maybe with words instead of music and chairs."
Next round of Don't Say the Magic Word...throw the words out there and have 1 less word than players.
Players never know when the words will go live for the round, so you have to be fast and visit the page frequently...of course there is still the bomb...so you would have 2 deaths each day....
