Deathgaze commented on EarthBound Delay May Not Have Been Caused By M...:

@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.

Deathgaze commented on Translated 1997 Interview with Miyamoto and It...:

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.

Deathgaze commented on Square Enix Teases New Projects on Anniversary...:

@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.

Deathgaze commented on Talking Point: An Open Letter To Nintendo:

I agree with everything but his Zelda comment.

Majora's Mask was far better than OoT imo, and Wind Waker was close to OoT. But I thought Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword were jokes so yeah.

Deathgaze commented on PAX Australia is Sold Out:

@Luigifan141 Honestly?

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.

Deathgaze commented on Square Enix CEO Resigns Ahead of Financial Losses:

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.

Deathgaze commented on Feature: Nintendo Life's Staff Favourites - NES:

@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.
