Wii Screen Shot Thread (56k no)

Yeah, those Smackdown vs. Raw images are pissing me off. PS2 port confirmed indeed. How they can go from a game as great looking as Day of Reckoning 2 to whatever the hell that is baffles the crap out of me. From a wrestling fan, this is something I was looking forward to, but I'm about ready to just disregard it entirely out of principle.

Oh well, there will be other games to comfort me around that time I guess. -_-

HOLY SHIT!!



Circular shadows? WTF is this, Nintendo 64?

Actually, Conker 64 had proper shadows. It's worse than N64, this is plain lazy.

The game looks nice itself, decent enough but not amazing, but come ON!

I love this thread, yes I do. Dewy is great as always... where is the MySims? :(

I'm not posting pics with logos all over them from sites that don't allow hotlinking. At least for the next hour or so until I get bored. I'm kinda cranky today, and just rubbed me the wrong way.

Sorry. Broken links. And a big middle finger to "revogamers." It's bad enough you plaster your logo all over other people's work as it is. Sonsabitches.

I appreciate your work on the thread since months ago, but a big middle finger for you.

What's the problem of using watermarks? It's automatically inserted when updating the database, just like IGN or anyone else.

And don't know what you're saying with "all over other people's work" when EA themselves offered us (and other media) a CD with those new screens.

I'm sorry, but I can't understand you.

I would also prefer working hotlinks and sharing those pics like in the past, but some sites just don't allow them.

Nothing wrong with watermarks, especially when sites are kind enough to find and host the images in the first place. It works out for them (or you?), too, as its free advertising at the most legitimate Gaming-based audience in the world.

My problem is when sites are smart enough to slap their silly little logo all over these pics and then dumb enough to not make their free advertising as easy as possible. I don't rehost pics that some small time site wants to block. Lost business for them. This is a hobby for me, not a job or a business. If some site out there (and there are several that I really appreciate -- they know who they are), wants to host logo-plastered pics and allow hotlinking, that's all the more hits on their site...not the one that they came from.

And if you have any access to "revogamers.net," tell 'em what's up. Less hits for them. Tough shit if they don't like the one thing I have a problem with.

Setting aside the fact I know what JPPB has always looked like and can tell the difference between its aesthetic and the Mii aesthetic, this picture is pretty clear.

You know...with the big word "Mii" up at the top in english with the pictures of the Miis?

I think you're using a little TOO much logic.

I completely agree, but I didn't agree with your middle finger, it's the offense what I don't like of your words, and what I find unnecessary.

You know, I went to the presentation with a partner, we made the event report, we interviewed the Lead Designer and we went back and uploaded those screens, and I would love to see and share those screens here like we've done many times in the past, but the programmer has changed some things and f***ed that hotlinks, so it's something I would love him to fix soon, but I will not show him my middle finger (although as you've said, it'd be better for us if those screens were available).

Peace, that's all. And keep the neverending work with this thread.

EDIT: and indeed, I think they've fixed it. He says there're some problems with the server and is trying things to save some bandwidth. You see, it's not that we just want the pics for us:

the MySims pics looking good, I agree with Panther, if you have pics and slap your logo on them, the least you can do is allow hotlinking I don't want to host your ads for free

oooh. As a big fan of the manga, I hope this game turns out better than the first few hands-on impressions made it look like.


edit: Donkey Kong Jet Blast or whatever it's called now is made by Paon, no need to get excited about one of their games, imo. I still can't understand why Nintendo gave a popular license like DK to that studio.
 
Yes but does it really matter if the shadows are circular? are you going to be staring at the shadows the entire time you play the game? Really, if its as fast as it should be, you won't care how the shadows work.

I have a thing about shadows...
 
That game really DOES look similar to what I played on the N64. I'm no stranger to GAF's hyperbole on this subject but those are just TERRIBLE shots. Same with the Smackdown vs. Raw shots, though they actually have no shadows AT ALL.

Plenty of circle shadows on the PS2 my friend :)

Yeh I know and it pisses me off. We're not living in 1996 anymore.

I mean, who the hell has a circular shadow?

PS: Don't bother posting images of characters that are circular. e.g Iggys Wrecking Balls.

Do you seriously think it will be fixed in the final version? Doesn't it come out in a month in Japan?

So why isn't it okay for someone to bitch about the circle shadows?

I dunno.... maybe because it's Wii? The fact that everyone is freaking out over SHADOWS, though, for... what, half a page now?... is entirely hilarious to me.

sorry I honestly hadnt noticed it. I just saw the disconnected big heads and feet and assumed it was the same game as always. If it has miis thats actually ****ing cool!

TBH, I hardly ever even notice shadows, let alone care if they are circular or not. I do notice the JPPb Wii game has "realistic" shadows compared to DK Jet.
 
I didn't notice them until he said something. I thought the game looked like a real upgrade from what the GC could do. Bright, sharp, and colorful. Looks good to me.

But after seeing it in that pic, it kinda sucks. And the bananas don't have shadow's either.

This is what really gets to me. Why even care about realism in a game like DK Jet when youre playing as a flying monkey collecting floating bananas on a hovercraft? The whole idea itself is preosterous. why would it even need something as useless as a shadow under the bananas?

Games that aren't finished yet. You ever stop to think maybe it's temporary and that screenshot might be from a build that's not final?

The game looks clean like Mario 64 looks clean. N64 style. I mean, I'm sure it'll be playable, but Jesus does it look bad. I don't think there's even enough time for it to improve significantly if it looks like that.
 
After looking at Wikipedia for Paon, I gradually got to Jungle Beat, and then found out that THERE IS GOING TO BE A SEQUEL BUT ONLY RELEASED IN ARCADES. Why must you torture me like this, Nintendo?!

If it's any good it'll end up on Wii. If it's like Mario Kart arcade, Nintendo will deny it's existence.
