why would they use generic mii's when they can use Iwata, Miyamoto, and Reggie??

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Mii
« on: September 24, 2007, 07:52:39 AM »
God how i wished the 64DD came to the states. First time i heard of Talent studio i was floored, it was an amazing concept and i couldnt wait to play it.
i never actually saw it in video form, i still have the np issue with a few screens of it (and the mario artist series discs), the textures look pretty good for an n64...
i actually like it better than the mii's
maybe one day we'll finally be able to upload our face's onto a nintendo game, like we should of been able to do since Perfect Dark.

I'm sure Nintendo will be giving each third party developer that contributed to Brawl a piece of the SSB pie so I'm sure Kojima will be getting share. But in order to get a big piece he must do something in return.
Makes sense if you think about it.
respect knuckles for Pap
its about time i made a usefull post around here.
I wasnt thinking along the same line as you, when you wrote that Kojima will be getting a share of the Brawl sales-pie. Honestly, i dont see it happening, not a big slice that is, but of course he has to get a small share because of character rights. Who really thinks Nintendo likes sharing their printed money?
I'm under the impression that they let his character into what will no doubt be the best selling wii game of the year as a favor, and in return kojima has to show some love to the wii (and/or ds) in game form. Built from the ground up game form.
If all that emerges from this is a MGS2-3 port/wii-incarnation, then Nintendo really dropped the ball. They know they need 3rd parties to make the types of games that they have no interest in making, and this is the perfect opportunity for them to snatch up a deal with konami/kojima for some "tradditional" games on their system.

So, you steal someones Wii and you return it the next day and offer a bag of marijuana as an apology.
Then you steal it again a few days later..?
i dont get it. what was his motivation to bring it back in the first place and offer up some of your stash (that you allegedly sell) as an apology. Its only gonna set you up to get busted on other charges.
then he has the nerve to steal it again a few days later?
wtf!?
the biggest "wtf!?" part of it is that she lets it get stolen a second time... You'd think after being robbed once you might atleast try to put bars up on your window, an alarm system on the door, motion sensing lights on the yard, a really scary scarecrow on the lawn or something. geez.
by the way.... where has Maryjane the day/night this incident took place???

General Gaming / Nintendo Contractor Fired for Blogging
« on: September 24, 2007, 07:16:46 AM »
but who cares, she's kinda HOT. know whats even better? she's a MILF!
proof
to be serious for a moment, i will talk about the news article that i will link to at the bottom of this post.
Plain and simple: she deserves it. Yeah, yeah there's free speech and whatever but most big companies have policies about writing ANYTHING about the company on blog sites or news outlets, so when you're bad mouthing your employer and the people you work with and purposefully make it for the world to see, you should know you're getting the old pink slip.
The thing with nintendo is, and i know this first hand, is that even when they hire you through a different company (temp agency, like i was, or any other company) you will have to sign an NDA before employment and it does specifically say that sharing information of any of the practices of any part of the company is prohibited and says plenty of times that they are an "at will" employer. For those of you who don't know, they care fire you "at will" for any reason they choose, without notice. So she could of beeb writing positive things about the company but if she revealed too much information, ie certain practices or names, and blogged about it she could of still been fired if they chose too.
She clearly wasnt fit to work for nintendo in any way and thats clear if you read some of her blogs. Nintendo has an image to uphold and its much more than just friend-codes for safe, kid friendly online gaming, it goes for its employees too. This girl was a party girl, a drinker and kinda comes off as a slut at times. Seeing as she's married with a kid, being a slutty party girl is even worse than if she were single. Nintendo doesnt want or need any of what this woman stands for so when her blog showed her true feelings, they let her go. She brought it upon herself, really. How can you write "One plus about working with a hormonal, facial-hair-growing, frumpy woman is that i have found a new excuse to drink heavily. My gud tells me this woman hasn't been f***ed in years.

I don't think the rewards are limited if there is a chance that Snakes appearance in Brawl could garnish up some hype from people that might not of been interested in his series to begin with. All every one talks about is how MGS4 is going to be THE game to have for the PS3s*, that it justifies blu-ray, and how it will sell more systems for that game alone (etc.). I don't think Kojima wants his epic title to flop because not enough people own a PS3. If there is even the smallest chance to make his game sell better, he'll do what it takes for it to do so.
At this point all sony really has at after this holiday they've seemingly given up is a small chance from a big game.
so what if he loves the Smash Bros. games? That's not reason enough to want his character in the game, he wants money in his pocket, money he can make by exposing Snake to as many people as possible before MGS4 hits. When all is said and done he should be the one doing Nintendo the favors, not the other way around.
Even if it doesn't sell well because of the small ps3 uses base, nintendo can still call up Kojima when Brawl sales surpass MGS4 and be like “Hey look, your game sold X amount on ps3 but look, Brawl sold XX amount over Melee and thats partly due to your character being in it. Its obvious you've got some fans on our side of the fence, maybe you should make something just for us and see just how well those fans want your creations.” Thats the business approach i expect to be taken.

Kojima went to Sakurai, not the other way around.
That's exactly why i feel Nintendo should have taken initiative and told Kojima “Sure, Snake can be in brawl, but what are you going to do for us?” as opposed to simply thinking “Oooh he likes our game, maybe he'll do something on Wii.”
There's no way to know how if either of those scenarios went down though, but my opinion is Nintendo should of used this as a deal makes to negotiate SOMETHING out of him rather than just hope for the best. Yes it would be nice to get some MGS fans onto the Brawl train and pick up extra money on those customers, but honestly if you've heard of MGS you've heard of Brawl already. I think there are more nintendo loyalist, however, that have played Smash Bros. but never played a MGS game before, so why would you go and advertise a gaming experience found almost exclusively on a competitors console? The ones that play as Snake for the first time in Brawl aren't going to go out and buy Twin Snakes for GC, their going to want to try out MGS4 because thats what Brawl is advertising. Even if the most loyal fan picks up TS for GC, it'll be used so Nintendo still won't be seeing money from it.
Now, chances are that Sakurai is left to make all final decisions when it comes to Brawl because Nintendo has faith in him, I'm just hoping they stepped in when it came to adding Snake to the fight.

seriously that one takes the cake. I only saw it because my brother insisted renting a couple of scary movies. It was House of 1000 corpses, something else, then house of the dead. I warned him it would be terrible but he got it anyway. By the time the first game-over like scene came up, i walked away wanting to punch a whole thru my wall as well as laugh uncontrollably.

because the entire front page was locked and simply looked atrocious. i was tired of looking at it so i went down the list of unlocked threads on page 2 to bump them. i tried reading some and coming up with something relevant but got tired of it.
i didnt even bother reading anything in this thread after doing it to like 10 other threads, so i dont know how i would be mocking Kairon.
although now i see by bringing this back up i´ve started another silly debate between GP and XunluckyforumuserthistimeX

i dunno, maybe i was in a bad mood when i saw the first RE movie (and that dampers anything) but i really didnt like it, and i dont think it has much to do with the fact that they didnt tie it into the games better.
maybe i should watch it again and try not to think of it as a Resident Evil movie and just a movie, but as it stands i still think its pretty bad overall. As far as a movie based on a video game goes... atleast its no House of the Dead. WORST. MOVIE. EVER.

Snake's appearance in Brawl, I would think, is meant to draw in Metal Gear fans to Smash Bros., assuming they don't already like both series. It's hardly a fair trade so I agree with you. I would like to think that Nintendo is not stupid enough to allow this to happen without better compensation, but with Nintendo getting Twin Snakes on Gamecube being one of the worst deals ever, I kind of doubt it. It's almost like Nintendo is doing all these nice things for Konami in hopes that they'll return the favor someday.
it'll piss me off if all th eir doing is HOPING, they should be out there grabbing developers by the balls and saying "you like money dontcha!? get to work on a game, and a REAL game"
