I want a Mario game that starts out old school 8 bit graphics wise
and with every level, the graphics are bumped up another level ie
16 bit, 32 bit, 64 bit and finally full HD with the Wii-u's bells and
whistles.

Sort of a Mario Generations. You could have Bowser going back in
time to all the old Mario/Nintendo games to cause havoc and
take it from there.

I had a similar/almost exactly the same idea.
 
Sayyy, I probably just have a mental block here, but what was the last action /adventure game (not RPGs, fighters, and other spinoff genres) in which Mario had the ability to climb ladders? They didn't have them in NSMBW, did they?
 
8-4 Play isn't really anti-Nintendo in any way, they like and hate most things equally.

i love the guys but if Mark's not around, i feel the cast has a heavy strong Nintendo tilt.

I mentioned that to JohnTV but he told me i was talking bollox, but i stand by it. :D

(as another mutual friend pointed out "dude... clue is in the company name!" ;) )
 
nintendo needs a dedicated team to remake mario 64 EVERY time they launch a new system so we can see the graphical progression (and make a fuckton of dinero).

go back to the past so we can see the present.

the fact that those guys work on translation for all of those companies I don't think they can afford to have a Tilt

but what is the company name clue?
 
And odd thought just popped into my head. What if Nintendo handed NSMB Wii U to Retro and had them work on it from scratch? How would you guys feel?

My only complaint about NSMB is the generic art style. If Nintendo tried to make a really good 2D Mario, I would be in love.

Retro doing NSMB? Hell yeah. I loved Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Wow.. you guys have these sites just sitting around for a rainy day? Impressive.

I had nintendium working but I could not afford the fees and had no help so I took it down until I could find a better solution I did not just want to copy past news like all other fan blogs

I just missed old Nintendo only sites from the N64 days :(

I think I mostly wanted a news site so I can get free games and go to E3 :3

I would be totally okay with this.

As long as it doesn't have a fucking run button.
 
I'm gone for an hour and you guys are contemplating starting a Nintendo news site with domains you all apparently own... WTF!?

If Retro handles the art I would love it. I can't picture it now...lots of fanboys complaining that Retro should be working on something else.

of course they can (and do) have tilts. It's not "bias" as in some sort of hatred for any other company, they all at least like everyone to some extent, just to different degrees. With Nintendo i just think they are less negative towards their games and some of the short comings sometimes get skirted over and things get a smidgen hyperbolic at times (especially for some of the Kid Icarus and Zelda chat)

The company name is 8-4 - it has a Nintendo origin :D

Things move fast here; come back in an hour, and they'll have the editorial board, the reviewers, the forum admins, and the financiers all arranged.

I get 1UP and Miyamoto did where a 1up t-shirt once

but what is 8-4?

is that world 8 level 4?

also I don't mind 8-4 they are my favorites

seriously if you enjoy Nintendo games its hard to listen to Bombcast or Weekend Confirmed talk about Kid Icarus they hardly gave the game a chance and some have not even played it

so as a fan you just get nothing from those podcasts you can relate to... I enjoy when they are not talking about Nintendo and praise an MS or Sony game because they sound like they really enjoyed the game they are talking about but you can see how they feel about Nintendo by how the shrug off any Nintendo title as meh... so 8-4 is pretty much the only guys you can count on to at least talk about Nintendo software without the meh attitude I don't see it as a Tilt its just more profound when compared to what you hear from those other podcasts

I long since stopped listening to podcasts and the only ones i actually bother with a run by people i actually know (8-4, RSG - both excellent) so i can't really comment on the other podcasts.

Smiles mentioned ponies a couple of pages back

and I would just like to say that I would buy the shit out of something like Elite Beat Ponies: Rhythm is Magic.
Or any game by iNis on the Wii U, really.

oh that reminds me I have to watch a few more eps of that show on netflix tonight so gud :3

I am so LTTP but at least I was not part of the creepiness unless I change my avatar to my favorite pony
 
the problem with owning and running a nintendo only news site is the Ninjas :P

you get no news for like 10 months out of the year from Nintendo all you can post about is releases and eShop downloads and Sales charts right?

Otherwise you get visits from Ninjas
 
I think at the very least someone should install WordPress and a good looking theme. None of that really takes any knowledge of web programming, since most hosts out there have one-click WordPress installations built-in. Then it's just a matter of finding people interested in adding content, which I know we have.

If the site can get off the ground and last long enough, it's first podcast should be live during E3.

Either that, or the week leading up to it. Regardless of when, the people doing it should at least be familiar with each other beforehand and somewhat organized. Maybe set up Skype calls and come up with topics and all that.

EDIT: I've heard it said that you should do 3 'test' podcasts before you make your first one for release.

I can easily transfer nintendium.com to a one-click wordpress but most of wordpress sites get hacked from my passed experience very easily spammed there is a reason its not so easy as it seems to run these sites you have to be willing to spend much more money than just a wordpress plug-in

I'm just saying as a starting point, something to get the ball rolling. There are good WP spam blocking plugins I've used before which do Captchas, check against IP/email blocklists, and the built-in Akismet plugin is pretty effective as well (though not perfect).
 
do you guys remember when this forum was Gaming-Age and it had a news section?

that is the other problem it does not matter to have a site these forums suck all traffic into a blackhole I rather read these threads than search google


I rather go to OT for latest news instead of clicking to CNN this place is a monster :P
