@SteveW I don't think it's about capability. I think it's about making sure that privacy's more difficult on the Wii U, If the Wii U is playing games directly from a USB port, out of the box, it'll only be easier for the pirating geniuses running non-purchased games from USBs in no time.
I think some people on this page need to learn the difference between "HD" and "better graphics". Seriously some of the posts just make people look very naive. W ith emulation on a computer NSMBW and Skyward Sword can both be output in High Definition resolution, it doesn't magically make the poly count of models and texture look a lot better, it just renders at a higher resolution.
I "love" how Australia is on the PAL region code, but we seem to have our own release dates. I was really hoping to play this demo, come on Nintendo we are meant to be on PAL too!
I've said this since the 3rd Gen games when I was 13 in 2003. They should release a full "catch 'em all" Pokemon, without the grid-movement, get rid of turn based battling and have real time 3D movement battles. It would make the combat so much more fun if the AI was tough. Rather then this, "Okay I'll hit you, lol your turn to hit me"
I've beaten KH1, Chain of Memorys for GBA, and 358/2. I still haven't played KH2, do any serious Kingdom Hearts fan advise I quickly go play and complete KH2 before playing this one?
People don't ever seem to agree, but I think the battle system needs a complete reboot. I know a lot of calculations and strategy goes into but Turn-Based fighting has never really been my thing, "I hit you-you hit me" attitude has always bothered me, special when the show doesn't really follow the same system most of the time. "some uses an attack, ash: lol dodgey it pikachu " ... I've always wanted proper control of a pokemon, real-time battling with attacking and dodgeing at will. If done well it would be very fun
As much as I agreee that keeping the "Wii" word in there will help advertise the brand and make it obvious that it plays Wii games etc. I feel like they might have the same problem with the 3DS and people believing it's not a new console and thinking it's similar to a DSi
I think if they do two things need to happen, Link must remain silent but everyone else has a voice. If they have a conversation with Link they can "hear him" much like his text never comes up. And of course it needs to be optional on or off. Some people want it, other don't - it needs to be an option if it happens.
I never played Donkey Kong on the gameboy, but I played the heck out of the NES version, in fact I'm firing up the Wii for the VC version now! Really keen for the Megaman Legends 3 demo.
@90 couldn't agree more, I always get excited hearing 3DS news, it just sucks to log on and feel, "oh, I guess it's just a USA-only thing" I really REALLY wish we could have more 3DS game trailers, and as a huge movie enthusiastic, I want 3D movie trailers.
I mean, only if a few people want them, it's not exactly costing them a big bunch of money to put them up there is it?
when the colour gameboy came out when I was around 8 or 9 I was given it and this Zelda for my birthday. I was completed in love with it! When I first beat the game, i didn't like the ending at all, I was so close-minded back then, I remember beating it years later and enjoying the ending much more, as I do today
ozgameshop.com all Australians use this site, seriously not even silly advertising this site is epic. Very cheap games and best of all - free delivery, however it takes about 2 weeks to reach you after they post it, but so worth it. They have DOA:D and even got MK9 from this site.
"The Legend of Zelda games were something geared towards the toughest audience," Well not anymore, with Ocarina of Time containing video hints or 'visions' it basically kills all challenge, many people I've talked too say Nintendo are 'bringing down' their hardcore games with Super Guides etc turning them into selling points for casual gamers. I'm not sure where I stand, but they do have a point..
I don't think I like this move, if the controller can be played alone without the TV, then vice vera is possible right? Unless they release a controller without the screen (which is fully compatible with every game) I think I'll support Nintendo with my 3DS only
Didn't nintendo originally say that this 3DS remake would be 'packed with new content' or something along those lines? If a mirrored master quest, boss mode and helpful hints is what they called 'packed with new content' I'll be sort of disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I'll buy it anyway cause I'm a sucker for Ocarina of Time. But I was hoping for something a little more like what thye had planned for the original, with the medallion being used as items etc.
I don't care about the 3D effect, what I don't like is not being able do to this without sitting in an open area, what if I'm in a car or just sitting in a chair and don't want to move around to much? I hope they have secondary controls like the touchscreen.. I feel this way about FSP mode and aimming weapons in Ocarina of Time too..
I used to have a spare save file which was just to re-fight the Spirt Temple boss voer and over without saving it.. so yay for Boss Mode.
Tip videos is kinda lame, sure it helps out some players, but I just don't like it (andddd que hate)
They said it was 'crammed with new features' I'm hoping it's more than just 'extra modes' I'm hoping for things like, stuff planned for the original that never made it out of Beta. Such as using the Temple medallions on C Buttons for Spells etc..
lol! I got sick of waiting for this and brought from eBay from the Japanese Club Nintendo quite some time ago. However I'm glad to see it's finally reached us
Mine has the "Super Famicom" logo on it instead too lol
I really want the 3DS, but none of these launch titles are appealing enough to grab right away. I've played Rayman 2 on the PC, N64 and original DS and have Street Fighter 4 on PC and Xbox 360. None of the other's are really my type of games..
My friend has an AceKard2i or whatever.. he believes in try before you buy, if he likes a game enough he'll buy it. He says that sometimes a review just doesn't give you an idea on whether it's worth the money. Here in Australia DS games are $80, sometimes a little higher, it's just not worth wasting the money to find out you don't even like the game.
