I managed 6 mins of the Bonus Round before I had to turn off, Irritating, obnoxious, ill-informed blowhards FFS.
I take it nothing whatsoever came out of it?

We all know that Mike Jones is the best Nintendo protagonist, which is ironic because Mike Tyson is the best Nintendo antagonist.
Really? Didn't think it was bad at all. They don't constantly praise Nintendo, but it's not like they ride them hard either. Thought it was fine.
I'm still unsure if i'll make the thread or not. I wasn't able to have a Wii U confirmed developer with up-to-date knowledge of the system, to vouch for the latest batch of info i got. At least to moderators, if he want to stay off-the-grid, which i understand.
Basically, it will be: "i've heard it's that, blablabla"
followed by "who is this guy" from people not participating here or in PC threads where i post sometimes
followed by people defending me & my info
i like the debates, the speculation, the theorycrafting, anticipating things from the info
but the quote wars, not much lol
I'll see
If in doubt, just post it in here like others have said.
BTW thanks for all the little tidbits that you've shared since you've joined. I know your posting style isn't appreciated by everyone, but I've enjoyed it. I'd much rather hints than knowing everything there is to know too far out and having my anticipation quelled. I want to say "wow" come E3.
RIP BP.
Oh yeah, the handheld gaming stuff he said was moronic for sure.
He did say he liked his 3DS though.
Shane said the launch line-up is going to pleasantly surprise people with both first-party and third-party stuff a plenty.

You reach a new town, are greeted by theiving fairies, transformed into a monster, your horse lost, forced to take one of the annoying fairies with you wherever you go, and to top it off, the world is about to be destroyed and nobody else is trying to stop it, and only cares about their own problems. Oh, and this cute girl you just met has been kidnapped, and she basically asked you not to help her (after having helped her in the future). Wouldn't you be depressed?

Are you telling me Evilore wasn't permanently banned?
Nintendo canned it for now because it wasn't very reliable. No way they gonna implement it in a less reliable way.
He does flips and shit. Best Link by far.

He gets fucked over like no other Link either. First he's a child forced into an adult's body and just when he's getting used to that, without asking for any input of his, Zelda forces him to be an adult in a child's body whilst splitting the universe in two. Poor kid.

Could be, or that they didnt find a way to use it in a good way. Pulse is something, to a certain extend, that you cant control very well, so i think that is a big limiter to using it in gaming sense. Thinking then of more broader use, not for use in maybe one or two games.

Then he dies and turns into a one eyed centurion skeleton ghost.
then he either vanishes and the world he saved gets destroyed. or he lives the rest of his life to be a shell of his former self.

then he has to teach sword techniques to a furry
They straight out said that it didn't really work out with all testers. Can't give you a link atm (on phone) but there were some interviews about it.
We need some more Koizumi in there.

MM Link is a bit of an acrobat, is an expert archer, can ride a horse, can use blades several times his size, has mastery over time itself, is a master of disguise (giving him powers including control over animals, supersmell, perception filtering, superspeed, necromancy and many more, not to mention transforming himself into 3 distinct species and an ancient deity) and is a master musician.
No contest.

No worries about a link. It sounds to me like a problem due to different pulses on people, and that people cant really control it.

Plus, they even have him probably get fucking murdered by Ganon in one timeline. Jesus.

And you can actually compete with free games, by paying your customers (while maintining profit from something else of course). While I don't expect something like that to happen for an MSRP (that'd be crazy), I wonder if certain supermarkets such as ASDA, Tesco and Walmart are going to start selling games for negative prices; they're already selling games (FIFA is very popular when it comes to this) for well below acquisition value. I know Elgiganten in Sweden and the European Media Markt operate similar to this. If they are going to compete with one and another, will they simply keep the prices as low as possible so that they just undercut competition with a few cents etc., or will they eventually start paying their customers?
I assume Nintendo could develop some small games for a couple of bucks and sell them for +10 Club Nintendo Points while limiting the amount of purchases for each customers. This would of course be via a digital store. Pack in some video ads (be it for Coca-Cola, some upcoming movie or whatever) and they could probably make profit. Or they could sell these games for 0.5¢ that the customers can use as discounts for downloadable titles. It would probably take a while to save up some money but nobody could complain about the games being expensive anyway.
I despise you.

Samus should have always been masked.
It's fine that she was revealed in the old game but after that, no need at all to see her face.

Seems to be like i thoughRösti;38048920 said:
From the site:"This is a totally new type of entertainment, and there are large individual differences in the biological information of humans. For example, if it was acceptable that only 80% of the users thought the result was natural, then we could propose this to consumers right now. However, we are aiming for a level of quality in which 99% of consumers feel comfortable, and that is why this project is taking time to complete."
Seems like he say there are problems because of the difference i biological information (different pulse from person to person), meaning that the result of using the game/software could be quite different depending on who used it. Someone might have a resting pulse on 50, while others might have it at 80. So it can be very different, it isnt like pushing a button that will give the same command/reply no matter who pushes it.

I hope that IF we see another metroid that they focus on what made prime so great. I don´t want sexy suit samus with overly sized... arguments...
or a whole "no suit" samus with jiggly physics on her... well... arguments... That franchise dosen´t need that to appeal...

If that smaller iPad for $200-$300 rumor is true, I expect a lot of Wii U doomed articles.

That's a Square protagonist, not a Nintendo one.
No, really. He's owned by Square. From Mario & Luigi credits: "Regardless of the above-mentioned, the copyright of Geno, reserved by Square Enix, Co. Ltd." (from Super Mario Wiki).

Indeed, I am aware of him. He is just Nintendo character, despite being owned by Square. I thought that he have Nintendo Charm to his design.
If by GCN BC you mean GCN VC. Time to rebuy all your favourites like Doshin the Giant and Donkey Konga.
