SparkOfSpirit commented on Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Confirmed for Wii U in Japan:
@CanisWolfred No problem, I wasn't sure if it was a port or remake in the first place.
#2
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo And SEGA Have Yet To Reveal Another E...:
Oh and as for the tease I'm pretty sure it's Mario guesting in Sonic Racing and Sonic guesting in Mario Kart 8.
#3
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo And SEGA Have Yet To Reveal Another E...:
Mario & Sonic platformer, please.
After the new 3D Mario and Sonic games come out this Fall I would hope EAD and Sonic Team would be working on that next.
Let me dream.

SparkOfSpirit commented on Senior EA Employee Caught Out Criticising Wii ...:
I think there will be quite a lot of meltdowns after the PS4 and new Xbox fail to take off out of the gate like these people hope...
#5
SparkOfSpirit commented on Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Confirmed for Wii U in Japan:
@CanisWolfred It's still perfectly useable if the story is unchanged. They don't have to work from scratch.
#6
SparkOfSpirit commented on Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Confirmed for Wii U in Japan:
A reminder: These already have English translations so there's nothing stopping this from coming out here.
If you enjoy beat em ups or adventure games you can't go wrong with these.
#7
SparkOfSpirit commented on Don't Worry, There Are More Sega Game Gear Tit...:
Game Gear Sonic 2 is WAY harder than Master System Sonic 2. For one there is a lot of blind jumps and the first boss is amazingly difficult.
#8
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Super Mario Bros. 2 (Wii U eShop / NES):
This game is massively underrated.
It is an EXCELLENT platformer and one of the best on the NES.
#9
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Confirms Smash Bros., 3D Mario and Ma...:
Should be great.
Though I'm sure the game press will still try to spin it negatively.
#10
SparkOfSpirit commented on Don't Worry, There Are More Sega Game Gear Tit...:
Sonic 1 8-bit and Tails Adventure should be great.
Here's hoping for Shinobi 2 and Super Columns eventually.
#11
SparkOfSpirit commented on New Sonic Title, Lost World, Will be Exclusive...:
This should be good after Colors and Generations.
Hopefully the 3DS version isn't Dimps, though.
#12
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D (3DS):
@Peach64 Events never have the most recent build. NL is playing the retail version, so I'd trust them.
Can't wait for this. Better controls, new levels, and portability are an instant sale to me.
#13
SparkOfSpirit commented on Sega Files Trademark For Sonic Lost World:
I wish Sega would get around to putting out the Sonic CD remake on the 3DS and Wii-U already.
#14
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Direct Confirmed For 17th May, Coveri...:
Wonderful 101 release date please.
#15
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Download: 16th May (North America):
If only every week was this good.
SMB2, Super Metroid, Runner 2 sale, and Mega Man 5 for me. SG&G will have to wait for now!
#16
SparkOfSpirit commented on Developer Interview: System 3 On Bringing Putt...:
@sonicriders Ha ha, yeah! The newer look reminds of the Saturn.
I will definitely grab this. I have a soft spot for 80s-90s era platformers. I'm kind of sick of all the puzzle and frustration platformers out there. This is much appreciated and welcome.
#17
SparkOfSpirit commented on Amiga Classic Putty Squad Morphing Its Way To ...:
@Ootfan98 Exactly. It is the one non-Sega system I'd like to see the most on the VC.
#18
SparkOfSpirit commented on Amiga Classic Putty Squad Morphing Its Way To ...:
There were a ton of great Amiga games that have never been re-released. I hope this is the first of many.
#19
SparkOfSpirit commented on Amiga Classic Putty Squad Morphing Its Way To ...:
Awesome!
More Amiga ports please!
#20

It's too bad Fuse will probably bomb. That's what you get with partnering with EA, I guess.
#21
SparkOfSpirit commented on Konami: We Had To Take Risks With Castlevania ...:
Konami made two traditional Castlevania games in the last 20 years.
How is that anything like Mega Man?
#22
SparkOfSpirit commented on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies ...:
Lame news, but at least it's coming.
So what's the hold up with Layton Vs. Ace Attorney?
#23
SparkOfSpirit commented on SEGA Planning Seven Releases for Wii U in the ...:
Sega has a boxed Sonic game coming this year. I'm certain that's one of them.
And guys, Sega has no racing team anymore. They aren't doing F-Zero.
#24
SparkOfSpirit commented on Talking Point: The Wii U Virtual Console Has S...:
And still for absolutely no reason Japan gets more releases more frequently. NOA is the biggest problem here.
#25
SparkOfSpirit commented on Capcom Describes Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate as ...:
Capcom still thinks Lost Planet 3 will sell despite how 2 tanked. I really don't get them.
#26
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Download: 9th May 2013 (North America):
Why are we getting 2 VC games when Japan is getting at least 3? Why is NOA always slacking?
#27
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Mo...:
I'm still waiting for a follow up to Donkey Kong 94 and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong GBA.
#28
SparkOfSpirit commented on 3D Sonic The Hedgehog Spinning Onto The Japane...:
Why has Sega not released any of their eshop releases over here? What is Sega Of America doing?
#29
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Kung Fu Rabbit (Wii U eShop):
I got it- I agree with the review.
#30
SparkOfSpirit commented on Capcom Announces Two More Wii U Virtual Consol...:
At least Capcom is on board. I'm still waiting to hear anything from Sega.
#31
SparkOfSpirit commented on Crash City Mayhem Hits the 3DS eShop in Europe...:
I'm not a big fan of racing games, except for arcade-style racers. Would this be closer to those?
#32
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Download: 2nd May 2013 (North America):
In case anyone hasn't noticed, Capcom is releasing a VC game on the 16th and the 30th: http://www.gonintendo.com/?mode=viewstory&id=201716
So if Nintendo releases alongside them then hopefully the pace on VC releases can only go up.
#33
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Kung Fu Rabbit (Wii U eShop):
For only $5 and me being a huge fan of platformers, I might just pick this up.
#34
SparkOfSpirit commented on Rumour: Next Sonic Game Will Go Back To His Ro...:
People really still believe that Sonic Cycle garbage? You might want to actually play Colors or Generations. They're pretty great.
#35
SparkOfSpirit commented on Trio Of Kirby Games Hitting Japanese Wii U Vir...:
3 games. Hmm, that looks familiar...
#36
SparkOfSpirit commented on Platinum's Inaba: Wonderful 101 Is So Much Fun...:
I wish they would announce a release date already so I could preorder it.
#37
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo To Reveal Retro's New Wii U Game "In ...:
Guys, SEGA has no more racing team. They're not making an F-Zero.
#38
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo To Reveal Retro's New Wii U Game "In ...:
Here's hoping it's not Metroid!
#39
SparkOfSpirit commented on New Wii U Virtual Console Titles Confirmed By ...:
@HeatBombastic When the VC started we had between 3-5 VC releases for like two years straight. They could do that again with NEW systems [Gamecube, Dreamcast, Saturn, Amiga and such] as well as the old and have enough releases for the entire generation.
Nintendo has to start pushing, though.
#40
SparkOfSpirit commented on Expect Batman To Sound Different In Arkham Ori...:
@sonic-doom The Brave & The Bold is awesome for Silver Age Batman. I could go with either him or Bruce Greenwood. Even Will Friedle would be perfect for a younger Batman.
There were plenty of other good Batman voice actors aside from Conroy, guys.
#41
SparkOfSpirit commented on Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D's Beastly Block...:
This is why I stick with carts for retail games. Digital only games are enough for my SD card for years.
#42
SparkOfSpirit commented on The Wonderful 101 Is Focused On "Fun" And Not ...:
I put 30 hours into Sonic Colors and 6 hours into COD4. Yet the former is considered short and the second is considered meaty.
The point is- wait until it's out.
#43
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Download: 2nd May 2013 (Europe):
@Moshugan They still haven't released NES Contra for any VC system yet.
#44
SparkOfSpirit commented on The Wonderful 101 Is Focused On "Fun" And Not ...:
If it has replayability it doesn't need length.
#45

Quick- someone submit Alex Kidd.
#46
SparkOfSpirit commented on Japanese Wii U Virtual Console Launches With 1...:
@DkFluttershyGuy Yeah, that's what I'm worried about too. There's no reason to go back to one release again while Japan gets 3. When the VC started on the Wii we would get far more releases per week. Hopefully now that Reggie isn't in charge we can go back to that again.
#47
SparkOfSpirit commented on Japanese Wii U Virtual Console Launches With 1...:
With Iwata up at bat instead of Reggie here's hoping NOA picks the pace up and we get releases like this.
You know, the way it was when the Wii VC originally started.
#48
SparkOfSpirit commented on New River City Ransom Sequel Confirmed:
River City Ransom is one of my favorite games. I would definitely enjoy a sequel.
#49
SparkOfSpirit commented on Review: Mega Man 4 (NES):
Fighting the bosses without the charge shot is not challenging, it's tedious. Doing anything in this game without the charge shot is tedious. It slows the pace down tremendously.
The charge shot is just as needless as I remembered it to be, the bosses are flat out dull, the music is pretty bad aside from like 3 tunes, and the level design is boring. Mega Man 6 might be worse, but this game is not that far ahead of it. Sorry, I just don't agree with you all.
#50
SparkOfSpirit commented on Nintendo Download: 26th April - Virtual Consol...:
As long as they have sales this time, there's nothing wrong with the prices.
Anyway, weak line up aside next week will be the real test for the VC. If we go back to one release or none then it's panic time.
