I will mostly agree except the PS3 was a more capable media machine from the get go over the PS2.  I'm not asking the world but 3D Blu-Ray should have been there Day 1 plus equivalent DVD support.

I honestly think the light is a symptom not a cause.  I doubt it takes more power then the red light on the PS3 controller.  I think the real culprit is the constant pinging.

I think by the time Ruby and Sapphire came out people were ready for a shift in Pokemon but, while they were ready what they really wanted was a full expansion.  Which is something they really haven't done as of yet by my understanding.

They have so many regions now.  I'm waiting to hear about the game that allows you to start in different regions.  Take on different paths to getting to the elite four.  Say I do some badges in Hoenn, maybe some in Johto. 

Be able to go to different areas to grab different Pokemon.  Something where we could each have are own path of making it through.  I think that is the Pokemon that really needs to come out.

If you download the E3 Experience on PS4 They try really hard to justify the touchpads existance but fail.

In fact I'm still at the point that the PS3 is the better machine in every way except Graphics.  If the battery life wasn't so pathetic on the controller it might have that but the 2 I have can make the Gamepad look good.

My long held membership of being in the PC Master Race was being questioned and my keyboard was just junk so, I upgraded to a A Mechanical Keyboard with Cherry Brown Switches  I'm very excited.  I've heard excellent things and this sound like the switch type for me.  Some the resistance like a Blue without the click.  I even went ahead and bought the bands to shorten the key presses and thought I try that.  Then I promptly downloaded EVE Online 14 day trail.  I have to say they have some fast servers backing that download.

I'm now fairly sure my Membership is secured.

What staff only forum? I don't know what you're talking about. We totally don't have a section of the forums where relentlessly mock the people who frequent this site in which they don't have any way of defending themselves.

I know you had a thing for me JP from the very start.  Huggles.

Yeah,
I've been on the Internet longer then most people.
Needless to say but, search changed quiet a bit from how I learned to do it and combined with my luck my Google-Fu sticks. Well I'm glad it now matters.

Reading some of this reminds how much I don't like Post-Game only stuff in Pokemon.  I rather there be a ton of optional stuff you could do before officially beating the game.

In Kill la Kill they change the Aspect Ratio whenever there is a flashback.  In general its 16:9 but when there is a Flashback then it turns 4:3 and a little grainy like it was old stock.

I could see Nintendo expanding this sort of thing with Franchise packs that would allow designers access to other franchises.  In particular anything in the NES Remixes.

I know there are people who would really like this.  I'm not a make my own fun type of person so doesn't really appeal to me but I know people who it would.

If Iwata feels well enough to work but, isn't cleared to travel I'm sure he will have a tele-presence at some of the bigger events for Nintendo.  I expect him to be virtually present at some of the Q&A's and also talking with the more business side of E3.

Though this does show how resilient Nintendo's plan is for this year, bar the Best Buy part.

Don't spend the money on a 7200 RPM Drive.  Regardless of the drives actual speed the PS3 will read from it at the same rate as the factory harddrive.

It might be how the PS3 does the formatting of the drive.

False, this was proven to speed up load times and install times back in 2007, just a year after the consoles release. Plus, it's widely known that hybrid drives and SSDs also great increase those things. Plus, in games like GTA5, the draw distance and the speed that it loads the world is increased.

I like a link to what you read.  I've done research on this every year and it always go back to just clocking it back to the original speed.

I've beaten 50cc, about 3 trophies in on 100cc, and did about 5 attempts at 150cc and I have not gotten a Star yet.  I did get on on the internet play though.

With how stupidly long it has taken for them to bring MonHan 4 over I was hoping it was going to be the 3DS and WiiU version again.

Lightning in this game is a little broken.  I think they should have changed to a random 3.  You always spin but it will either:

1) Knock your Item out
2) Shrink you
3) Knock the Coins out of you

Right now it does all of that and isn't dodge-able from what I can tell.  The only thing it has going for it is everyone but the thrower gets hit.

I'm pretty sure it destroys any item around you including bananas that are on the track (and blue shells).  The problem is this item is so damn hard to get.

...And Keep.  IF I get one it tends to be the 2nd lap and there is a good chance that I'm going to be Lightning bolted between that and the Blue Shell.

Dixie Kong I see being a costume for Diddy Kong.
If Palutena is in I would personally expect that there be a back and forth dialog between here and Pit whenever they end up in a match together.  I do enjoy that in that game.
Ganon Pig probably be a costume or a change like Giga-Mac.
I had to look up who Demise was.  I made it through a good chunk of Skyward Sword too.
9-Volt could be interesting but screams Assist Trophy.
Actually be sort of surprise if Chrom and Shulk don't make it.

From other things being posted in this thread I don't know if Marvel and Disney want to bring back the Fantastic Four as much as kill them off and retire them to History.

Is it just me or is there a lot of comedy director being named as possibilities for Ant-Man?  Is it going to be a Super Hero Comedy?  The only character I could think of that could really pull that off is DC owned and that is Booster Gold.  I could be wrong though.

I heard Whedon being named in the thread but I didn't see it on the list.  Out of the choices I think I prefer him if an option.

I got digital.  If I would have thought about it more I probably should have got Physical played through and then just traded it in.  *shrug*  I'm bad about not trading games as well.

The Super Horn will knock out Shells and other racers around you.

My expectation in that regard is that Nintendo probably doesn't have anything that will initially be more than a curiosity when they announce it at the start but there other events will grow it more for me.
