I'm a fungi
Male, United States
While I am a gamer, most of my time goes into computer animation, which I am very passionate about. It's so hard to find the time to play videogames AND animate when you have the stressful school work to deal with...

There's two things Nintendo can never get rid of in their future handhelds: Double Screens and 3D!

Star Fox or Metroid. You can't go wrong with either one! Seeing them in HD is so exciting.

ianmage1 commented on Nintendo Won't Be Holding A Large-Scale Press ...:
I am slightly disappointed, because I really was hoping that Nintendo would have an epic reveal of the next Zelda game for Wii U; my hopes of seeing a reaction similar to the one with the revelation of TP are now crushed. At the same time, last year's E3 was weak and some of the Nintendo Directs were more exciting. I have a good feeling that we might actually get some downloadable demos of revealed games to compensate for the lack of a stage presentation. At least I hope so... heck, that would be more exciting than any past E3.

Wow...and I thought I was lucky when I found all of the original gameboy pokemon games for $5 at a goodwill...

Definitely going to buy this. It seems that whenever I'm away from home, I come up with a good song idea, but I don't have my computer and composing software to take note of it, causing me to forget the idea. That price seems very reasonable to me.

This employee should be given a friggin' medal from Nintendo. Miyamoto should knock on his door and honor him.

Ha! I guess the Wii U is just too good for this current-gen game!

This wouldn't affect Nintendo financially, but I don't want Tomita to get away with a false accusation like this. Stupid patent troll...

ianmage1 commented on GameStop: Wii U Will Need Great First Party Ti...:
I can't stand the marketing for the Wii U. If people still think that the Wii U is an accesory for the Wii, isn't it obvious that Nintendo needs to advertise it with a clear message that "This is not a Wii; it's an entirely new console with HD graphics and a gamepad." Something as simple as that would be enough to get the message across.
Of course first party titles will sell this system. Mario Kart, 3D Mario, HD Zelda, and SUPER SMASH BROS. will be crucial. I'm still waiting for a good Wii U game...

ianmage1 commented on Unannounced Square Enix Wii U Title To Be Reve...:
If it's Kingdom Hearts 3, I will do a back-flip; having that as a Wii U exclusive and angering the Sony fanboys would bring me great joy. It's probably too good to be true...

ianmage1 commented on Pachter: Wii U Will Sell Between 30 to 50 Mill...:
I can't believe he thinks the PS4 or "Durango" is going to sell almost the same number of units as the Wii did. If the PS3 and Xbox360 never came close, why would consoles of this generation have a better chance at doing so? If anything, consoles of this generation should be expected to sell fewer units, given the high prices of consoles and games.
And, basically, anyone who predicts the number of units sold, before the freaking console is even RELEASED, has no common sense.
Does he think the Wii U's sales are going to stay constant? Just wait until the next Zelda, 3D Mario, and SSB (that one especially) are released for Wii U; the sales will increase like crazy. Look at how the 3DS started; it had no good games at the start, but once the first party exclusives came out, it became the best selling console in Japan. I predict the same thing will happen with the Wii U.

ianmage1 commented on Feature: Nintendo Life's View - Wii U Direct:
They revealed more in this Nintendo Direct than they did in E3 2012.
#17
ianmage1 commented on Feature: What You Told Us About Wii U:
I think one of the questions should have been "Did you purchase the Basic or Deluxe set?"
No big deal, great survey.

ianmage1 commented on Disney Infinity Developer Would Like to Includ...:
Maybe if Star Wars and Marvel had been part of Disney for a longer time, but it just seems awkward to include them right now; some people would be really confused, as Star Wars and Marvel really weren't part of the Disney canon. I still can't accept LucasArts and Marvel as Disney; they're completely separate from the Disney that I have known. Keep these characters out, please.
#19
ianmage1 commented on Disney Infinity Heading to Wii U, Wii and 3DS ...:
I'm glad to see the Tangled references.
If this game is taken seriously and literally has every Disney concept that ever existed, this game to could be insane. But it could easily be a failure; I hate the figurine idea...

I think ground zeroes should definitely come to Wii U, but I could care less about this game.

Thank God for the Fire Emblem release date. That's about the only 3DS game I'm looking forward to right now.
#22
ianmage1 commented on Nintendo Unfolds Paper Mario Visual History:
I just want Mario & Luigi RPG 4. That series is literally perfect IMO.

I've never wanted to cry over a magazine before!
It has such a huge legacy.
I think I'm gonna have to buy one from the newsstand, because there's no way I'm going to open my subscriber edition; it's going to be so valuable.

ianmage1 commented on Hardware Review: Wii U:
Seriously, the Wii U is the console that Nintendo should have released back in 2006, not the Wii. I absolutely love the Wii U.
#25
ianmage1 commented on Wii U on Plenty of U.S. Christmas Lists:
Let's be real here. 6 to 12-year-olds should not be getting iPads for Christmas. If these kiddies are getting iPads for Christmas, their parents love them way too much...
#26
ianmage1 commented on Review: Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS):
I'll probably get this eventually. I'd much rather see a Mario and Luigi RPG 4, though... that series is GOLD.
#27
ianmage1 commented on Watch: First US Wii U Advert Appears:
I thought the graphics at the end (all the blocks making a "U" formation) were pretty great, but they need to stop making it look so "casual." They need to show games like ZombiU, COD, etc. if they want it to appeal to everyone. When I saw that singing game... :I
Generally speaking, adverts need to stop showing people smiling so gayly; it looks so fake and stupid. But maybe that's just me...

There's my favorite video game of all time, Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga! Please make this happen in the US.

An employee at gamestop convinced me to pre order one of these, even though I missed out on the Wii U premium pre order... I still don't care.

Sure, when you start selling the Vita and the PS3 together for a price that isn't over $350, call me.

ianmage1 commented on Wii U Pre-Orders Selling Out in the U.S.:
@ThomasBW84 Thanks. I need to look elsewhere for the deluxe set. I can't believe they've sold out this quickly! This is the biggest disappointment in a long time...
#32
ianmage1 commented on Wii U Pre-Orders Selling Out in the U.S.:
I need to do this soon! Is it true that every GameStop is sold out or is there still hope for me?
#33
ianmage1 commented on Pachter: Expect a Wii U Price Cut Next Year:
If Patcher was my friend, I'd have him say things that I don't want to happen so that the opposite happens. Like... he could say, "You will never win the lottery!" and then I'd win the lottery. XP

Horror games are not for me, but this looks like a good idea for a zombi game. My sony fanboy friends who usually hate nintendo games are actually interested in this, which is definitely saying something!

Mushroom Kingdom Hearts. Instead of going to Disney worlds, Sora visits the Mushroom Kingdom.
#37
ianmage1 commented on Talking Point: Nintendo's Digital Pricing:
I will only download a digital copy if it's a game that I would play often, at any time. For example, when SSB3D comes out (a long time from now), I will probably download it. But other than that, I'll stick with physical copies. I would probably have to buy a huge SD card if I went with the digital downloads...
#38
ianmage1 commented on Bing Gordon: Nintendo's 'On Track' to Primaril...:
I can't believe it's coming down to this. Nintendo, the leading innovators that made the most iconic videogame franchises of all time, becoming a software-only company? People are always saying that Nintendo makes great games and that's what's most important, but the games are only great if they run on the consoles that Nintendo made for them. I would never want to play Mario or Zelda on a Sony, Apple, or Microsoft platform; that would feel like a downgrade to me...

ianmage1 commented on Genius Sonority's Denpa Ningen no RPG Heading ...:
This looks like a quality experience. It kills me that they can release a great game like this on the eshop, but release angry birds as a retail game...

I would instantly buy a Kingdom Hearts version. It's too bad I've never played a single final fantasy game in my life... I don't know where I'd start...

ianmage1 commented on Iwata Expects Wii U to Last a Generation:

Man, you should consider how terrible your E3s are in comparison to Nintendo's...

The bottom screen of the 3DSXL is bigger than the top screen of the regular 3DS. That seems sorta sad to me...

At the moment, I'm most excited for the Kingdom Hearts 3D Demo. I'm going to download it RIGHT NOW!

#47
ianmage1 commented on Wii U Will be a 'Great Value Proposition':
@TheN64Dude That seems like a lot for $300.
I'm willing to spend no more than $350 for the console, one gamepad, and an included game. If it costs $400... I'm going to have to save up...

They were given the favor of not having Sony or Microsoft reveal their new systems at E3. They could have used this opportunity to blow away audiences, but they choose to waste that opportunity on showing very few new content and disappointing us. Horrible move.

The non specific action figure is going to start a huge trend for memes. Like the non specific action figure, I also don't approve.
