Re: Poll: Have You Ever Had Problems With Nintendo Hardware?

Doctor_Pancakes

My original DS has a few dead pixels(as did my PSP) and my DS lite’s top screen started shorting out because a friend dropped it. Other than those to instances Nintendo has been great...
Wait, I did have to buy a new Wii because my launch system couldn’t read the dual layer discs. It was no problem though, got the new one cheap and eventually was able to play Wii games on Wii U so it didn’t bother me.

Re: PlatinumGames' Studio Head Talks About Strong Professional Relations With Nintendo

Doctor_Pancakes

I think the company has had Nintendo’s attention since before they were known as PlatinumGames, at one point they were Clover Studios while with Capcom and created Okami. I bet that is when they grabbed Nintendo’s interest. I have no idea how much of the original studio is still at Platinum but it wouldn’t surprise me is they let the company develop a Zelda game like they used to let Capcom do back in the Gameboy era.

Re: Pier Solar HD Delayed, Wii U Version Will Now Come With Built-In Achievements

I wish they would just drop MS... it is coming out on plenty of other platforms...
well unless this was a kickstarter and MS fans contributedI'vet even then there is no reason they couldn't release all of the other versions. I've been looking forward to this, delays for one platform is ridiculous. Eh at least Shovel Knight released. That game has been perfect in this slow summer in gaming and looks to occupy me and loads of other people for a good while!

Re: EA Releases Lengthy List of Online Services to be Shut Down on DS and Wii

@Number_6 I actually gave up on Mass Effect after Bioware was bought by EA.
Dead Space Broke me and I bit and surprising loved it and Extraction on the Wii BUT all of the following games in the franchise were awful. EA's best nintendo exclusive game was Beetle Adventure Racing and I've wanted a sequel to it ever since the N64 release and really wanted to see it on Wii's VC lol

Re: Review: Rusty's Real Deal Baseball (3DS eShop)

Doctor_Pancakes

Nintendo wanted to make something new. If they had made it Animal Crossing Baseball reviewers would be complaining about Nintendo's lack of new IP's so that made a good call imo. It is a great game so I don't think it will struggle in sales and I'm sure people will be surprised how many shell out full price for it.

Re: Wii U System Update 4.1.0 Available Now

Doctor_Pancakes

@turnmebackwards I had that issue back when it launched but that is understandable. Since last September I haven't had a single issue with my Wii U. These updates go in and fix problems like freezing, losing connection to the game pad and fluidity of going from program to program like going from in game to Miiverse. The Wii U has improved a LOT and is continuing to! The only games my Wii U did freeze on the few times it did were on shoddy launch 3rd party ports anyhow. Sonic Racing, COD BO2, Batman AC once and (although it was a fantastic port that came out later) Need for Speed. Even with those games I haven't had them freeze or lock up since the steady flow of updates started.

Re: Nintendo Comes Up Empty at BAFTA Awards

Doctor_Pancakes

@Peek-a-boo no if Nintendo developed Last of Us I'd think they sold out and gave in to the point and shoot genre the game feeds to. All of the games best assets like the adventure, exploration of abandoned neighborhoods for survival items, hunting the deer and character/story development were fantastic but in the end it is just a run of the mill shooter with boring hide from the clicker segments. If anything if Nintendo had developed the game play around good parts of the game already there the game would have been vastly better.

Re: Video: These Are The Ten DS Games We Want To See On The Wii U Virtual Console

Doctor_Pancakes

I think this is a great time to get some DS games not released in America to American gamers! I want to see both Hotel Dusk and its sequel(which never released here) on the Wii U, I know it would be a bit tricky to pull off since you held the DS like a book but with a little effort it can work! That and I want just about every great RPG released on the system including all of the Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest remakes and Radiant Historia.
