@Peach64 Irrelevant. That was speculation on behalf of a spoke person from EA. Also, they haven't had a single good game since PS1 days. They're shit, get over them.
@Burning_Spear It was delayed for all the wrong reasons. They decided to not go exclusive Nintendo and multi platform instead. Micro$oft however won't accept anything that is late to their system. At the time of launch they haven't yet made a PS3/360 port.
@KnightRider666 I'm a moron? I have the money to "waste" on the cartridge, manual, box, scratch and sniff cards and a acrylic case to protect it. I have a job and the finances to fund my hobby. I'm happy with my purchase and do not regret it the slightest. Have you ever thought that gaming is my biggest passion. That I love the 16 bit era (as I grew up in it) and JRPGs? Probably not. Don't think just because it will be a waste of your money that it's a waste of mine.
And no, I didn't make my initial comment because he didn't buy the cartridge such as myself and many others. I replied to him because he came off harshly and basically said that Nintendo owes it to him. He only deserves it if he is willing to pay for whatever it's going for. I don't decide the market value for collectables, but I choose to accept it and don't whine like a little school girl because it costs too much for me. Get a job and learn to spend money wisely and you won't need to act like a poor fool on the internet.
@KnightRider666 "Get a life" when I have some 34 year old man from the other side of the world having a go at me, hah. I don't care who I may offend or agitate, sir. I come here to express my opinion. You may take it or leave it. It won't be changing any time soon.
@KnightRider666 Yes there was good reasoning, marketting. They are a business and they release things when it suits their pockets best. They do NOT owe you anything apart from what they promise. Saying they owe you something makes you sound like a child.
@dragon_rider It's not overpriced if that's what the community is willing to pay. And why the hell would you touch the SRAM? You need to replace the battery that powers it. And you don't need to solder it, just tape one in. I bought it for $350, and do not regret it.
@bahooney Trust me, I understand completely what you're saying. I just didn't like his attitude and the others that attempt to demand things from developers and publishers.
I already own a complete in box copy but will buy this to show that EarthBound fans exist and ready to support them if/when they decide to translate MOTHER1 and MOTHER3.
@ErnisDy@Kaze_Memaryu Ghostlight only handled distribution and translation. It was Atlus' job to apply the translated text and adjust it to match the specifications of the PAL 3DS. Ghostlight are in no way developers themselves.
10. Wizards and Warriors III (Least favourite) 9. Mega Man 2 8. The Legend of Zelda 7. Castlevania III 6. Battletoads 5. Super Mario Bros. 4. Contra/Probotector 3. Punch Out!! 2. The Legend of Zelda II: Link's Adventure 1. Super Mario Bros. 3 (Favourite)
The 64 should have had a disc drive straight from factory. IMO, it's a horrible system which dwelled behind it's competition, the PS1 the entire gen. Even though the PS1 is 2 years older technology.
Funny how back in the day Nintendo's SNES stood up better against the PS1 than the N64 did.
@ljinkakidd I've just done extensive research and this is what I found out. Square was doing fantastic before hand. But when Spirits Within bombed they lost the vast majority of their money. However. The merge was planned before Spirits Within. FFX got Square well and truly back on their feet. But then Sakaguchi left to make movies and sold his 51% of the Final Fantasy brand to Square. The merge happened after Sakaguchi left and Square got back on their feet. Enix refused to merge with them in their initially money crisis.
@ljinkakidd Sure. You expect me to believe that the company who has one of the best selling videos games of all time was having money issues? In 2003 around 80-85 million Final Fantasy games alone sold. And that's just one series.
Australia's seasons are the opposite of that in the northern hemisphere. Then it's winter for you, it's summer for us and vice versa. When it's autumn for you it's Spring for us and vice versa.
Then again there are plenty more moronic comments above thinking everywhere has summer in July.
@bofis I think both are pretty bad actually. I still think the best ones were GameCube's and PS2's when the OS will only actually have an interface shown if you started the system without a disc.
@DePapier I think Sony is a better example. High price but quality higher end systems. Not to mention they use standard media storage, not silly Wii U discs. They also have Japanese and American developed games. While Nintendo is 99% Japanese made games.
I've loved Square since the SNES days but my god have they done almost nothing right recently.The last good thing they did was develop The World Ends With You and the remake of FF4, but they barely promoted it and gave FF4DS such a short print run. Before that there was FF12 which people seem to either hate or love it. (I personally love it) And before that was FF10.
I'm glad this happened. Maybe now they can get their flagship franchise, Final Fantasy back to it's former SNES and PS1 glory status. Stop focusing on phones and ports. Don't announce things so early. Localize games people want to PAL regions and North America (Type-0, Bravely Default for example). Online FFs - At least don't make them part of the main series if they have to exist. And a whole ton of others.
@rezyac There's a difference between aged and aged poorly. I'm not defending Zelda at all saying it hasn't aged badly. Simply put I said he word doesn't hold much merit considering he wasn't around at the time.
I love popping in my original Zelda, I think it's a great game still to this day and an absolute classic. Yeah sure it's aged some-what-poorly in my opinion, but so has 99% of the NES library.
