I think that everyone who reviews this game should play it twice BEFORE they review it to give the most accurate review.

I think that just one playthrough is all you can reasonably ask of any reviewer who's writing for the average joe. a review hosted on a Mickey Mouse/Disney fansite, sure, tell them they should play through it twice before judging whether they like it or not, but in terms of IGN, Gamespot, and here at NL, once is just fine IMO.

prepare to pony up the dough, my friend -- without access to the Japanese Club Nintendo, eBay and/or other auction sites are your only hope. :3

there are adapters available that will let you use your straight-up SNES controller, though, if you'd like to settle for an unofficial solution. :3

the release of Okamiden isn't so dumb when you realize that it's been out in Japan for quite a while already. They're not going to give Japan a DS version and the west a 3DS version; we're lucky we're getting it at all. also, some games have been in development for far too long to just up and switch gears like that, y'know -- the 3DS was probably announced just as Okamiden began pre-release lotchecking and whatnot.

What ever happened to just having a phone? :P

If I applied that philosophy, I would walk around with a laptop and 3G dongle, phone, folder of documents, camera, games console, e-reader and MP3 player.

That would be very inconvenient and heavy. I use all of the devices above for work or play.

But on the road I only need my iPhone to get decent enough functionality of all those to get by until I can get back into the office/ home.

Well we'll see about that once you drop it on soft carpet and break the screen!!

this for srs... i've seen so many broken iPhone screens hahaha. or try having a defect show up inside of it where the metal expands with use/age and the contacts start separating from the motherboard inside. that happened to my mentor's iPhone, it really sucks because it shuts off half the time we try to use it just for Pandora, lol -- forget being able to talk on it :3

its only a los for the company itself. The game looks like dog crap just as 99% of all the other DS games. Floating pixels everywhere. Its just a river ( not even a ocean ) just a river of floating pixels.

clearly someone hasn't even touched the game yet. it looks excellent IMO, and I haven't seen any floating pixels at all.

totally seconding lz's nomination of post for Hall of Fame status. Motion passed.

@shinesprite: the offer is appreciated, but i'd really rather not have to resort to cheating -- i'll close the chat window and every single open tab i have running as well as everything i usually have running in the background if i have to in order to get the job done. only for Gaijin, though -- sorry other devs, they take priority :3

also, i totally didn't realize you had a list going in the other thread. thank you~

@TokyoRed: before you decide to check it out or not, be aware that Venture Bros. is chock-full of adult themes and humor. it is most definitely not a family TV show (and that's part of why i love it IMO, lol). if you go into it thinking you're just gonna be watching some good, squeaky-clean adventures, you are in for one helluva shock.
