JakobG commented on Scour the UK for Mario Tennis Open Yoshi QR Codes:
Cool idea, too bad the internet will break it.

JakobG commented on Cloudberry Kingdom Will Be Wii U's Most Diffic...:
I like that the levels are generated in real time, that keeps the game from becoming a simon says-muscle memory game.
#3
JakobG commented on Iwata Won't Promise "Overwhelmingly Rich" Wii ...:
Now I want to hear Iwata say "evergreen".

Uh oh, I fear you can't play games while downloading…

JakobG commented on Rayman Legends is Coming to Wii U, Supports NFC:
Oh man these Wii U-exclusive features are going to result in a terrible loss of friendships.
#6
JakobG commented on Analyst Calls for Mario on Non-Nintendo Platforms:
"Idiot Analyst wants Nintendo to kill strongest selling point"
What else is new?
Do these guys even realize Nintendo sells hardware as well?
There's no way Nintendo could sustain itself if they stop making their games exclusive. Either they stop making consoles, or they'll keep on making games for them.

This looks incredibly bland and unprofessional.

Get the original VA from the Super Mario Bros Super Show, then we'll talk.

JakobG commented on Talking Point: Is Nintendo Over-Reliant on Sup...:
First they complain about there not being a Mario-launch title, now they complain about Mario being overused.
Pick a goddamn side already.

JakobG commented on Nintendo Buys Supermario4.com Web Domain:
Big deal, big companies like Nintendo pull this stuff all the time.

JakobG commented on Rumour: Wii U Components Cost $180, Will Retai...:
Sounds pretty legit, considering advertizing, shipping and other costs.
#13
JakobG commented on Feature: The Super Mario Renaissance:
I actually think Yoshi's Island is the best Mario 2D Platformer.
Super Mario Bros 3 is pretty great, but the controls aren't as enjoyable and tight as Yoshi's Island.

MFW no one on this site actually has an idea what Free2Play means.

JakobG commented on Mobile Dev: "Iwata Makes Me Fear for Nintendo'...:
You'd be stupid to ignore the massive potential and the inevitable future bump in popularity of F2P-games.
However, I - or anyone, for that matter - cannot say what will happen to current retail games. I suppose they will change in order to coexist, adapt to compliment the static experience; perhaps they will be singleplayer only, with no DLC (except for the occasional patch), while all the fluid, open and constantly shifting and improving content will belong exclusively to F2P.
Iwata has a point, for most of Nintendo's licenses, the F2P-format does not fit. For instance, there's little room for optional items in a Mario-game.
The best I can imagine would be an F2P Fire Emblem game where you can customize your troops and gametime would be limited with supplies crucial to restoring your health in between battles. I think a lot of people would enjoy seeing the fighting sequences with their own customized fighter, as well as battling opponents online on constantly new maps.

JakobG commented on Disney Epic Mickey 2 is Built For Wii:
Woah, so the 360 and PS3-versions will, in a sense, be the ports?
@rjejr: No, it's the Wii. No confirmations wether it'll be available for the Wii U yet.

Too bad, but that doesn't surprise me.
Textures usually only looks acceptable when in their intended resolution.
Just check out the HD-footage of Wind Waker.

JakobG commented on Get Into this Rhythm Heaven Fever Teaser Trailer:
I can't wait for the rest of the voices, especially Wrestler's Words.
I've watched a lot of japanese footage, so I got used to the original voices.

JakobG commented on Millions of Wii Games Pirated in 2011:
So many Mario Sport's Mix pirates?
Well, it does have this "It seems interesting, but not interesting enough to buy it"-quality to it.

JakobG commented on There's a Swapnote RPG Waiting to be Played:
I can imagine making a MSPA-esque adventure, with your friends replying with suggestions.
#32
JakobG commented on Disney Newsletter Accidentally Outs Epic Mickey 2:
It's funny how everyone complains about the camera in this game, I only recall having issues with it in the Jungle one or another time.
What really bugged me were the slightly messed up platforming physics, the travel system and some issues in combat, like the lock-on system and the massive hitstun you'd receive when getting hit.

Electricity powers?

My parents are too stuck-up and intolerant to believe gifting videogames isn't bad.
#36
JakobG commented on Feature: Bizarre Emails Sent to Nintendo Life ...:
I don't think it's obvious enough you guys aren't Nintendo.
How about adding a fixed disclaimer on every single page?
#37
JakobG commented on Nintendo Narrows Wii U Release Date Window:
Well how else were they going to present the final form of the Wii U on E3?
I just hope they'll have the Wii U games to bridge the gap.

JakobG commented on Learn the Story of CRUSH 3D In This Trailer:
The whole subconscious-idea reminds me of Psychonauts, cool.

Now this is something I sure as hell did not see coming.

JakobG commented on Mario Kart Communities Intended for 3DS Operat...:
Another reason why the release was rushed.
#41
JakobG commented on Nintendo Faces More Calls to Embrace Mobile:
Considering games such as Kirby: Mass Attack and Rhythm Heaven, I don't think Nintendo would have too much problems making games for something as limited as smartphones.
That being said, I wouldn't want Nintendo to leave the realm of dedicated platforms.

I like this villain.
He throwsSonic's crappy friends away ASAP.

JakobG commented on Nintendo Working On Two Controller Support for...:
Did I get something wrong, or wasn't it known for quite a while now that the Wii U is actually capable of streaming 4 SD and 1 HD image seamlessly already, making pricing the only hurdle?
#47
JakobG commented on Feature: Ten Years of Golden Sun:
This game was my first GBA game.
I knew nothing about it, I just picked it up because I liked the cover.
Thank god for that.
