@greyelephant: Im not serious (think: am I ever ), but in this game I thought LRRH was older, like late teens or something (not that it really matters). And if she is twelve than......
We're actually not bickering over what console is better, we're bickering about the people bickering about Nintendo not being as good as they are being child-ish. Im for they're child-ish, Adam is against.
@KS8: You bought another WW game? Why am I not surprised
But can we have your review (and then watch the reviewer, most likely Matt (hes been doing overtime on this site, and I applaud him for that) have a completely different review)
@JRAP: You have to realize, Nintendo is not making shovelware like Hannah Montana The Movie The Video Game or Carnival Games, its other developers. Nintendo is doing great (except for maybe the Wii ____ series but they aint that bad honestly). I could say the same about the 360 talking about all the High SChool Musical and Kung Fu Panda games.
But for me, hardcore is more like somebody who uses video games as their primary hobby or way to spend free time. Hardcore is more of a person type than a game (I dont believe in hardcore games).
Core is more like you say, the popular reliable stuff that the company knows are going to sell. Core is more of a game rather than a person.
I think it really boils down to the fact that casual gamers cant keep the system afloat. They might buy the system, and maybe one or two games, tops. But hardcore gamers will buy tons and tons of new games. I think Nintendo is realizing that the ink is running out of their printer (if you've seen that picture with the "It prints money!" you'll know what Im talking about).
That would be actually pretty nice. Of course, I dont want to watch it on "teeny weenie eye strainer vision" (Zero Punctuation Reviews), so I guess it really dosnt matter.
@thewiiirocks: I dont think that really matters, if one game could, it would have been MadWorld. I think that its gained such a rep that no amount of changing could save it from the eyes of others now.
Its like if some kid picked his nose in 2nd grade, everybody calls him a nose picker throughout high school too, even if he stopped in 4th grade.
"Fall of Nintendo?" Seriously, they're just as good as they were back in the day, we're just getting used to their franchises. When people say "Wah, Nintendo sucks now, they're ignoring their hardcore audience!" they're acting like a child who feels like their parents dont love them anymore because they had a second child. Well Nintendo just has a second audience now, so I hope these people just shut up.
Deep story? Nintendo isnt one fore deep stories (aside from Fire Emblem), but if its half decent I wont mind.
Nintendo rarely makes a poor game (even frickin Bonsai Barber was good), so if this continues the Nintendo 1st party quality greatness, then we may see a new franchise finally.

@longtimegamer: Halo 3. Way for Microsoft to rip us off by charging $10 for 3 new maps. The usual.
Re: Review: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time (Wii)
Sooooo......where's that DS version review?
And Im surprised you praise the DS version that much. Most review sites only give it a few tenths of a point higher.
But, I guess that's why you're WWW-Nintendo Life (I really have to get used to that ).
Re: Review: Junior Brain Trainer (DS)
Animal....themed....hangman?
So you're like, hanging a Squirrel. Thats sad
Re: Nintendo Download: Mixed Messages, Pitfalls, Magic Tricks and Pirates (US)
This has got to be some joke. Im sad no S&S, Cave Story, and other things, but at least Bubble Bobble! Im sad right now.
I guess this is a sign to buy the Mythic Map Pack instead........ sigh
Re: Review: Bubble Bobble Plus! (WiiWare)
@calculon: You actually like a game

looks at picture of her upper body
thats just scary......
Re: Review: Little Red Riding Hood's Zombie BBQ (DS)
It takes a special developer to make Little Red Riding Hood hot.
Or just some scary minds
Re: Review: Equilibrio (WiiWare)
Ahh, good to see other people making 7 jokes
Re: Review: Equilibrio (WiiWare)
Corbie gave a 7. Why am I not surprised

For once, I dont care about the JP releases. Usually they get uber stuff, but not this time.

How bout' that Equilibrio review?
No? ......didnt think so.

Re: DSi Has a Strong Opening Weekend
You know, considering I heard so many people say "I dont want a DSi. Im fine with my Lite" Im surprised it did so well
Re: Nintendo Download: Bubble Bobble Plus! & More WiiWare Goodies (EU)
I need Bubble Bobble Monday. I just need it.
Re: Nintendo Looking to "Re-energize" Game Market
@thewiirocks: I love your example
But for me, hardcore is more like somebody who uses video games as their primary hobby or way to spend free time. Hardcore is more of a person type than a game (I dont believe in hardcore games).
Core is more like you say, the popular reliable stuff that the company knows are going to sell. Core is more of a game rather than a person.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (8th Apr)
@longtimegamer: Yeah, what did ever happen to that?

But hardcore gamers will buy tons and tons of new games.

Re: The DS To Get Video On Demand Service?
That would be actually pretty nice. Of course, I dont want to watch it on "teeny weenie eye strainer vision" (Zero Punctuation Reviews), so I guess it really dosnt matter.

Re: Analyst Reckons Wii Investment is "Fools Gold"
So he is saying that good games dont sell on Wii because the Wii has less hardcore games than 360?
If that was true there wouldnt be all of us hardcore Wii owners on this site posting comments right now.
Re: Review: Fatal Frame IV (Wii)
You decide to make us read a very positive review for a game that was highly anticipated but confirmed to not be coming to NA?!
You suck Matt
Re: Review: Star Ocean (SNES)
RPG? Check.
Square-Enix involved? Check.
Good graphics? Check.
Chance of it ever coming to us? Unfortunately absent
Re: Mini Ninjas Set To Invade DS and Wii
Kind of old news, was in last month's Nintendo Power.
Re: The N64 and Nintendo’s Fall From Grace
@Adam: Well it looks like your adult opinion is alone here. I've got 2 whole people on my side
Of course, that is until Alex shows up and rips us to shreds with some totally different opinion that is
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (8th Apr)
At this rate WoG will make enough money to buy the rest of Switzerland that Halo couldn't buy.
Re: The N64 and Nintendo’s Fall From Grace
@Digiki: Oh yeah! I totally agree right there high fives
@Adam: Im not calling them children, just that they act like children.........
Okay, maybe I am but still, I have some valid points
Re: Dunaway: No E3 Snowboarding This Time
@lan Daemon: In the context he used it in it is.
Unless Wiiloveit is Aetheist (I have no idea how to spell that), Hindu, Buddhist, or some other multi-or no god religion. Then he would be correct.
Besides, he edited it. Im right
Re: Get Ready For Even More WarioWare!
So its essentially a game built around a level creator (a LittleBig Planet if you will)? Im not one for creating stuff, so Ill pass.
Re: Review: Mario's Tennis (VB)
The DSi really needs a VC.......
Re: The N64 and Nintendo’s Fall From Grace

"Fall of Nintendo?" Seriously, they're just as good as they were back in the day, we're just getting used to their franchises. When people say "Wah, Nintendo sucks now, they're ignoring their hardcore audience!" they're acting like a child who feels like their parents dont love them anymore because they had a second child.

God, Im sick of these articles.
Re: Brits buy 92,000 DSis in launch weekend
@Prodody: Yup. Gotta prepare for Christmas early. And I have a big family
Re: Review: Captain Rainbow (Wii)
@Wiiloveit: Tingle is a DS game, Google it if ya dont believe me.
Re: Dunaway: No E3 Snowboarding This Time
@Wiiloveit: Remember, God is capitalized
But Im glad Nintendo learned what to and not to do at a gaming convention.
Re: Review: Captain Rainbow (Wii)
@Drake: You guys have Tingle!!! Since the DS isnt region-locked, I think Ill import it.
Re: Konami: VC Arcade Support and WiiWare Life Force
I bet Corbie and doing a little dance right now
I want a Star Parodier ReBirth. Man, that was fun (and adorable) game.
Re: More DSiWare Titles Revealed
I could but the entire Clubhouse Games for $10, so Ill pass. None of these appeal to me, Im just waiting for Pop.
Re: Robocalypse - Beaver Defense Coming to WiiWare
@Corbie: I remember that show. Good times, good times
Re: Brits buy 92,000 DSis in launch weekend
