Poor man's F-Zero is right. Pansy-man's F-Zero might be more accurate, though.

From what I've heard from those that got deep into F-Zero GX, you pretty much got to a late point in the game where it became downright impossible to go any further.

Nope. I unlocked everything and the best part was that the challenge was never frustrating. Pure adrenaline, that game.

For fans of F-Zero, this could easily be the killer app to lead one to the dark side...

FAT CHANCE.

I cry myself to sleep everyday that Nintendo doesn't announce an F-Zero Wii title

Best sports sim I've ever played. Incredible game - played it on a friend's 360. Almost tempted to buy a console just for this title. Too bad I'm not interested in any other 360 or PS3 game.

That you're using Fox News as a source? Yeah I cried too.


Your like, the Silks but with politics.  Equally annoying about it too.

You're like Pro, but without the funny.

Okami is probably the best Zelda since OOT or MM for me... Maybe.

Hey guys, long time no see!  I am *the* Knoxximus who wrote the FAQ.  I hope you guys find it somewhat useful!

And yeah, my 2GB card sucked HARD...the important thing is that you can eventually realize the full potential of a 4GB SD.

And yes, if you filled it with photos, you could view them in the Photo Channel.  If you filled it with music, you could use those in games that support custom soundtracks.

And as long as you make a quick backup of your card whenever you adjust something, you should be fine. 

I also updated the thread with a program where you can custom make a blank file whatever size you need to cut down the time it takes to maximize your card!  ^_^

Hey look, it's Mr. GameCube 1.5.

I quite like this quote relating to Final Fantasy..

The fact that you can't see that they all star prepubescent man women running around with a big artifact trying to stop the world from being destroyed, all while painting themselves up in a lot of useless cutscenes, doesn't bode well for you.

Wait, why wouldn't the game come over here? Wasn't it made with Western audiences in mind? Did it not flop horribly in Japan?

Aww, a DS love-fest! Count me in!

Someone should make a retrospective bump of threads when the PSP was announced.

From the videos I've seen, the gunplay controls look much stiffer than RE4's.. I'd have to play it to make a judgement though.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: "Wii HD" in 2011?
« on: October 05, 2008, 02:17:01 AM »

How about this: When HDTVs actually have QUALITY output, that's when I'll think about getting one. I cannot tell you how many people gush about how much they absolutely love their HDTV but when I get a look at it the picture is pure garbage. Ghosting, pixilation, shadowing, artifacts, graininess and simply overall ugly color. I used to think it was just the TVs alone that were causing those problems but I recently saw an HD football game on an SDTV and a lot of the same issues were there as well so it's not just the TVs that are causing it but issues with the signal too.

To be honest, I simply know too much about the technology to be willing to put up with anything less than a clear, bright picture. Since I've yet to see that on a single HDTV  at any store, I won't be buying one for a long, long while.

I have to agree with you on that.  My brother-in-law, who is no slouch in the tech dept. himself, bought a top-of-the-line Sony LCD (Bravia XBR), complete with what was considered their best standalone BluRay player, and has it hooked up with all of the proper cables.  I must say, it is certainly unimpressive.  The depth and accuracy of color (particularly in the reds), and the overall purity leave a lot to be desired when compared to a quality CRT monitor.  Yes, the resolution is better, but that is it.  Everything seems pallid, and full of artifacts.  Furthermore, the quality of standard definition programming takes a HUGE hit, making it unwatchable for me.  That is a primary reason why a lot of mastering houses will not use LCD displays, except for those costing retarded amounts of money (like 10 times the average consumer-level display).

I actually had some hopes for the SED displays being touted as so amazing for the past couple of years.  The promise of CRT-quality and response times coupled with truly flat displays, and full HD resolutions would have been great.  However, that got botched pretty badly.  As such, it will be a little while before I am willing to waste my money on the current stock of HDs.  That doesn't make me Luddite, just someone who appreciates getting what I paid for.

I agree. The closest I've seen to a CRT-like image is from Samsung's LED DLPs.

I love all these GameCube games. But they belong to the Cube and not the Wii (and I already own them). I'll be keeping an eye on the remakes but probably won't buy them.

Ian, you're wrong. You talk about the Wiimote as being driven by novelty and ignorance and that once that wears off people will go back to humongous uboat control gamepads that are just fucking clunky for any purpose, you're just like those retarded analysts that predict every week that the Wii fad is just about to end. The pointer is less precise than a mouse? So what, how do you use a mouse without a desk? Wii Motion Plus is an improvement? Well, guess what, that shows the technology still has room for improvement that can be done with the next system.

You always talk as if the masses are stupid and will be enlightened to your ways any moment now. You. Vs 32 million gamers. I say it's YOU who's ignorant and needs to be enlightened! You talk about how the Wii cannot play "current" games but what about the competition? I don't see the PS3 or 360 being capable of playing Wii Fit! Yeah, sure, the PS3 and 360 owners won't care and that's why the Wii is winning: It picked the market that DOES care and that does not pursue some snobbish perception of how videogames should be art and epic and ****, all they want is a fun game. Hell, all I want is a fun game yet games are so concerned with beating each other in terms of epic and art that at times the fun has to suffer for it because they ram another cutscene down your throat. **** the cutscenes, **** your crappy excuse for a story and **** your "great writers" that you hire because they'd be ridiculed as second rate hacks in the book market! Bring back the euphoria from overcoming a challenge that is actually difficult, not jsut called such by the manual! Throw away the 20 hour game length mentality because you cannot make a game challenguing and that long, noone would make it to the end. Make something that your skill alone can beat! This. Is. THE EXPANDED MARKET! Yes, that's right, the expanded market is really a resurrection of the retro market. Irony, eh?


BTW, to say Nintendo will only change when they're no longer ahead is to call them stupid, they'll change while they're ahead to STAY ahead!

*salute*
