Helga, please make the pain stop.
Who cares, it's fun on the DS, and i'm having fun just thinking up new possibilities.Drinky Crow said:BUY A PC. Most of the shit you idiots propose has been done with a mouse on PC AGES ago, and better. Translating it into the handheld space doesn't push developers, nor does having a second screen to dump additional game information into.
There's more innovation in the EyeToy than the entire DS feature set, and it's still a total gimmick.

I have a cool idea that could work for a 2D MArio game. Think of Super Mario Bros. 2 which had the Subcon World. Now imagine having the normal world on the top screen, and a Subcon-type world on the bottom. Give Mario the power to make a red door pop up at anytime to switch between the two, and let some awesome gameplay ensue.
This could not be done using a single screen or could it ?
Edit: actually if you add some more ideas to your concept it could not be done ona single screen.
Say that you needed to see the layout of the second "world" to appropriately open the doors... yeah that woudl work.
I agree but I don't necessarily think developers will take advantage of them as they should. It's unfortunate, but for now it appears that companies are just shoehorning games to fit in with DS; I think this is bad. The problem is that to utilize the DS it takes intelligent, thoughtful development. Risk are involved and when quantity is always your priority, it's difficult to get developers to take part.Grubdog said:Seriously, there's millions of possibilities, and i'm looking forward to seeing how developers approach it.![]()
missAran said:What is this? You are speaking for each other now? Aww... how sweet. I'll be honest with you, I'm probably as much of a critic of the DS as you are -- so far I'm utterly unimpressed, which is why I don't own one. But not giving it a chance and calling it "worthless" is ignorant. You must acknowledge that a stylus screen opens the potential up for new and exciting gaming concepts, if you don't, then your cynicism regarding developer innovation is depressing.
Don't worry, all we've seen are the launch games, I think the games will improve as developers get more familiar with the system.missAran said:I agree but I don't necessarily think developers will take advantage of them as they should.

Heheh, you've obviously not played what is one of Enix's best games.MrAngryFace said:EDIT: WOW A MAP MODE FOR THE SECOND SCREEN?!?! *BOGGLE*
soundwave05 said:Why? I think the DS stuff sh-ts all over the Game Boy library.
Goemon on the DS from Konami for instance looks far better than anything Konami has done on the GBA.
The only people consistently making good GBA games are Nintendo, and they make good games (although they can't seem to make any game without a Disney-esque pallete) on any platform so that really shouldn't even count.
Yeah, he really made a fool of himself there. Hide in shame, man.NLB2 said:Heheh, you've obviously not played what is one of Enix's best games.

Drinky Crow said:Y'know what? You can't play both screens at once, so there's no reason NOT to use a single screen for the game.

Thankfully, only Nintendo fanboys have enough futile hope and free time to waste on threads like this. Who needs reality?

I'm not supporting it, yet, man. I haven't bought it. In fact, I made this thread to make me excited for the DS' potential future, because it appears lacking now.MrAngryFace said:MissAran
Lets see: Not knowing about a videogame. Or supporting a shitty 150 dollar investment. Yeah im a fool.
Clam shell. Its hard to fold a screen in half.Drinky Crow said:So explain why we need the dual screen again?

I don't care that he knows or doesn't know about the game. But criticizing a game one hasn't played or dismissing a crucial mode of the game as he did is ridiculous. Please, maintain your credibility, by not defending him. In fact, maintain it by not talking at all.Drinky Crow said:Why should he need to know?
