Re: New Legend Of Zelda Title Confirmed For Nintendo 3DS, Due Late 2013

-Crystalline-

There's one specific element that I hope they've added in the game, and is extremely essential to a Zelda game. Challenge.

Seriously, think about it. One of the primary motivation "generators" in Alttp was how challenging/difficult and sometimes dark the game was. Those of you who played it in the golden years of your childhood know what I'm talking about. Walking into your first dungeons and being bombarded with that creepy soundtrack playing in the background, having to backtrack immensely in order to keep moving through the dungeon, stepping inside the boss room and hearing that intense, yet threatening tune kick in.

It was all an adrenaline rush.

Bottom line, I want them to give us a fun game, but also challenging content.

An english trailer... sigh

One can never match the talent of Japanese voice actors. Period. I want the old Nintendo back I miss the GBA era so much. Endless days of searching the web for trailers of games that barely even got advertised, waiting months for new rumors on exclusive titles, forum communities frenzy, and good old Japanese trailers.

Those were the days.

Re: Inafune: Japanese Developers Are "Too Proud" And "Don't Know What To Do"

-Crystalline-

Japanese developers are doing just fine. I could never experience the same emotions and thrill that I've experienced while playing JRPGs on a western title. Same goes for other genres.

They're far superior than us in some aspects as a culture and society, and that shows. It shows in their technological progress, in their creativity, in their professionalism, and of course, in the game development scene.

The only gaming genre the west has that excels in most aspects is probably the online first-person shooter. Other than that, in Japan I trust.

Please, and I mean PLEASE go back to the old-school Zelda formula, Ninty Give us a new Zelda title full of greatness, once more!

I hope they release the oracle games on the eShop as well. That and the ambassador GBA titles :3 It's not much too ask, now is it?

Would love to see some new rpg coming to the system too.

Re: Talking Point: An Open Letter To Nintendo

-Crystalline-

It's not Nintendo's fault that third party titles aren't rushing in like there was no tomorrow. The developers are at fault. What Nintendo can assure us, however, is that they'll deliver on their part. More first party games from THEM. I buy Nintendo consoles to play their games, not third party games from other devs.

But in a way, I agree. Nintendo should go back to its roots. More old-school Zelda games, more Metroid games, more Mario and Kirby ones as well! Give us that urge and desire that we felt back in days of discovery, of adventuring through hyrule or fighting off space critters with enjoyment.

Focus on the software, and not on the hardware.

Re: Sony Trolls Nintendo Ahead of PlayStation 4 Announcement

-Crystalline-

See, the thing is, that if Sony attempted to continue making titles for one of its iconic characters (like the big N has done for Mario) they would all fail. That's what Nintendo's flawless at. They can keep developing Mario games for the rest of eternity, and it'll never get old and/or boring.

Re: New Pokémon Revealed for X & Y, Say Hello To Ninfia

-Crystalline-

This might just be me, but I have a feeling that this generation will have much better designed and good looking 'mon, in comparison to the last one. I mean, I just didn't like the pokemon in these last games. Some of them were alright, but the rest sort of felt like they had been "rushed". Anyways, I'm loving every bit of news so far

Re: Ninterview: Heather "Miss Gamer Girl" Cascioli

-Crystalline-

@skjia You've got it easy, brother. You probably live in the states, where video-games are far more widespread. In my country, gaming isn't as "famous" as it is overseas and in the U.K. Things are beginning to change, though, thank god

Back on topic: What an impressive collection she has! Wish I had all that :3
