Re: First Impressions: Little Inferno

DavidRY

Hey Phillip, great preview, really appreciate how sensitive you are to the problem of ruining the game with too much information - makes the game much more mysterious!

Just wanted to help you clarify though, as I'm sure many other game reviewers will do the same, Little Inferno is not a 2D Boy project. From the website of Tomorrow Corporation:

"Did 2DBOY rename itself to Tomorrow Corporation?
No. Although, confusion is understandable: Kyle Gabler is a co-founder of both 2DBOY and also Tomorrow Corporation. Allan Blomquist, another co-founder of Tomorrow Corporation, helped 2DBOY bring World of Goo to Wii back in 2008. And Kyle Gray, the remaining co-founder of Tomorrow Corporation, is longtime friends with everyone at 2DBOY." Also, Kyle Gray is the creator of Henry Hatsworth, thus explaining the shout out with the puzzling adventure combo! A pretty cool team-up!

Re: Nintendo Unveils TVii Service for North America

DavidRY

The real issue is how all of these features will work with each individual's set up. It seems like a lot of the things they were showing, especially the live twitter-like feed and all the sports stuff for TV, would need support from your cable provider as well as possibly a Tivo account too. I assume you'd need to be paying A LOT of money to many different services to take full advantage of this. What I want to hear from nintendo is how many tv providers they have on board for this, otherwise it'll be limited to just using netflix and/or hulu plus the same as you would be doing now anyways.

Re: Feature: Nintendo's Motion Revolution

DavidRY

Feel like there's a lot of hate in the comments :/ The Zelda series is always controversial I suppose. ANYWAYS, I'm surprised there was no mention of BLOOM BLOX! In comparison to Flingsmah being a flop I would counterpoint with what a great game Boom Blox is, and it was at least successful enough to warrant a sequel right? I'm still waiting on an improved and expanded version using MotionPlus. Haven't researched too much but I hope they haven't put the final nail in the coffin of that series.

Also, has there been any game that utilizes two Wiimotes, one in each hand? I know Playstation's Move has done that so what's stopping Nintendo?

Haha, at first I was freaking out and all "Why is there no Luigi on the cover?" I mean Daisy, Birdo, Waluigi, and even a Yellow toad are more noticeable then he is. Its funny though once you find him.

Re: New Pokemon DS Game Comes With... A Keyboard?

DavidRY

Anyone else think its a weird pairing for this to come out for the DS and not like with WiiWare? It seems like Nintendo would rather have Japanese school children buy a new accessory rather than using a usb keyboard they already have.

Re: Netflix Channel Now Available From Wii Shop

DavidRY

Anyone figure out how the subtitles and audio options work/some titles as examples? The sole reason I haven't been watching all the Anime thats on there is the poor english voice acting (so sue me for preferring subtitles - it was what I was raised on!)

Re: 2011 Release for 3DS is a Move to Avoid Stock Shortages

DavidRY

Did the Wii have a stock shortage? I just remember certain unnamed friends trying to sell their copies online for ridiculous prices and not getting a single bit. Perhaps with the 3DS being pushed back Nintendo is trying to avoid all the profit going to ebay and craigslist sellers instead of them!

Re: E3 2010: Nintendo's 3DS line-up

DavidRY

Nintendo having a great E3 site with tons of info on all their games = awesome. I am so (pleasantly) surprised Nintendo is putting so much effort into their online media for E3. Not leaving the news reporting to just the independent sites.
