And if YI is Artoon again/whatever their successor is, oh lord, I will not be happy.

I don't think Artoon exists anymore? Which probably means it'd be easier for personnel from that team to work on this without you realizing it.

Maybe it'll be by Arzest instead; they already have a history with Nintendo, working on Streetpass Mii Plaza and stuff.

 

[Dark Schala]

I really dislike the way Yoshi looks. Kills pretty much everything I loved about the look of the orginal, which are crayon style drawings...

Yeah, the original looks so much better than this and I wish they went in that direction instead. I would've been happier about it. I think the original was faster than this slightly too?

Artoon is dead though.

At least I think it is?

They are. I meant Arzest or whatever their successor's name is.

Edit: Beaten.

I wish Nintendo would stop ditching sprites so much. What the hell? Why is it that they're ditching sprites completely? Is there even a 3DS Nintendo game with sprites?

I mean there's nothing wrong with models but... sprites are gone! All gone!

 

[PhantomOfTheKnight]

All I can think of is this unholy abomination. (Watch with annotations on, for your sanity.)

Only 12 pieces of candy? That's bullshit!

Oh I just remembered something! Iwata said there will be N64 games on the Wii U VC (of course that would eventually happen!). Oh man... playing N64 games in HD resolution...!


EDIT: I like how we all talk about Nintendo wayyy more than we talk about Sonic overall.

I think it would be perfectly fine to have a sprite-based platformer with the 3D settings on, right?

I can't really see the 3D in the first place since my vision doesn't allow for it, but I presume that they're going the mostly 3D route because of the 3DS's features.

...Oh man, I just realized that Yoshi's going to make sounds in this game. I think that ruined the GBA port of Yoshi's Island completely for me. I can never bring myself to play that port, like ever, because of that alone. Huge shame. Yoshi's Island is one of my favourite games of all time.

Yeah, I think the DS era was the last we'll see of sprites (on a consistent basis) from Nintendo on handhelds.

Shame too, I love me some pixel art.

I tried a sprite based game in 3D. It looked fantastic. I wish Nintendo didn't ditch sprites, their games would've looked amazing.

Yoshi's voice is fine. Hmph *crosses arms*

 

[tiggerkiddo]

Yoshi makes wonderful sounds. Baby Mario on the other hand...

 

[Kokonoe]

Yoshi also talks in all of the Mario spinoffs as well.

Kart
Strikers
Party
Baseball
Hoops
Tennis
Golf
Smash

I think the only games he didn't was Yoshi's Cookie, World, and World 2.

Like I've said before, not a huge Mario fan over here. I know a certain someone is probably going to work to change that, though. I wonder if he'll succeed.

If Sega does their own Directs, I will not watch unless it has a catchy opening tune with vocals from Mitsuyoshi.

Well it's otaku pandering artstyle with outfits that bulge the shape of their bodies through their skin tight clothing, it's all you can really expect.

I mean, those guys will show up as long as:

1. Anime art style
2. Female character

They are always looking to add a new waifu to their image collection.

I can understand that, I grew up with the N64 and such so it was like kinda right there soon after for me. Although to be honest, most Mario spinoffs aren't for me.

The only way I could find it more adorable is if the Yoshi's started tripping out Mario's grubby mitts.

But yes I do like the Yoshi chorus.

Well, I can't even watch it because it's during my exams. Shucks. Were they having trouble finding a recorder? I guess I'll have to catch up tomorrow evening if it is recorded. I'm more disappointed because I enjoy it more when I watch it with you guys.

EDIT: Earth Seeker looked cool, too.

From the Japanese reviews I'd read, Earth Seeker was apparently awful, and it's probably best we didn't get it.

I can understand that, I grew up with the N64 and such so it was like kinda right there soon after for me. Although to be honest, most Mario spinoffs aren't for me.

Yeah, I skipped out on Mario 64 until recently, so I think that played a huge role in my lack of enthusiasm for anything Mario, to be honest.

Nothing happened, I think that stuff is okay here on GAF now. I've seen it now more than I ever have, it's almost as if I'm on a anime fan forum. Well, least I know I can PM people doujinshi and talk about it in public on GAF now in video game threads.

Now you have me wondering about the quality of the soundtrack.

Bummer. I'm trying to get my essay finished so I can watch it without distraction, myself. There's been a lot of that today.

Yeah, it's too bad. You're lucky cuz you have a paper and can probably multitask. I have to get my butt to school to write an exam, haha. I'm really disappointed. At least Thursday was doable because I was meaning to take the night off from studying then, and my heart was set on watching it then.

I hope I can watch it with someone else tomorrow, but that won't be too likely.

Man, I hope I don't get spoiled by the time I watch it.

Well uh... let's shift discussion to something else then.

I'm still a bit surprised that a new Sonic title hasn't been announced yet. Though if that means they're actually putting a lot of time & work into it, I don't really mind.

[Dark Schala]

Pretty sure he was joking.

Sonic is the new Megaman.

Could've said that when Sonic X-treme was canned. >.>

Also, Mega Man Xtreme 1 and 2 ain't that hot, so perhaps it was a blessing in disguise. (*waits for qq more to get all mad about this like he usually does for some reason even though he knows the truth*)

Nah, I'm still waiting on one. It's still April, but I'm a bit surprised as well. I need a new Sonic soundtrack in my veins, dammit.

 

[PhantomOfTheKnight]

Asked this question in IRC, but want to post it here as well.

I've been kicking around the idea of a Sonic centered podcast and was thinking "Gotta Go Cast!" would be a good name, but I usually suck at making good names. What do you guys think?

In our defense, Capcom cancelled all of the upcoming games and there hasn't been a mainline Mega Man title since 2010.

Pod the Cast, consider me having run that joke well and truly into the ground, through the earth and back out the other side, now I can be at peace.

Gotta Go Cast isn't that bad at all, I like it.

But it's not hyperbole. He's got some good assertions behind his opinion, not to mention that playthrough he did of it the other day.

To his credit, neither game is very good to me, which is why assigned both of them to him as punishment... and knocked Xtreme 2 off the list because both of us were getting irritated by the end of Xtreme 1.

No it's just the fact he considers it worse than X6 and X7! He has valid reasons to not like them though, but... I can't picture anyone saying they're worse than those. It's like saying Sonic 3D Blast is worse than 06!
