Re: Splatoon Global Testfire Suffers Major Problems in Final Pre-Launch Session

Genesaur

Wow, that's incredible. Sure, all of you guys interpret this as a bad thing, but I was ecstatic to see that it was up after the initial hour was over. I thought I'd missed it, 'cause my lady was taking forever with our errands (and I was constantly bugging her to hurry up, lest we miss the demo).

When I was able to select a character and stuff, I just thought they'd extended it, or that I'm just stupid about time zones and such. Either way, I got to play, and I was super happy about that.

@outburst Yup, he won't exactly be missed. More fun for us, I guess.

I'm pretty excited to see that Splat Zone has options for more zones to control. That sounds fun.

I find it weird that the amiibo focus on getting special gear for single player. I guess they didn't want amiibo owners to be OP online? They could still balance it out; I dunno.

Re: Nintendo Reveals the Final Club Nintendo Elite Rewards

When I saw the Platinum rewards, I thought with such disappointment, "But I already have almost every game I'm interested in on here!" I ended up going with Mario Galaxy 2, since I want a physical copy of Tropical Freeze, if ever I do buy it, and Crashmo and Metroid Fusion are cheaper than Galaxy 2.

Re: Game Jam Tasks Developers With Creating A Zelda Title Starring A Female Link

I really don't get why it doesn't even seem to be a consideration. I mean, the original point of the Link character is to be a representation or at least a connection to the human with the controller. It's in the character's name, after all. A link to the player.

If I recall correctly, that was once the point of allowing players to name the character in the first place. Somehow, Link just became his actual name, or whatever. I think a fem-Link would maybe help people to realize that.

Ganon can stay male. It'd be downright annoying if they just gender-swapped everyone, but we know there's no way Nintendo would do that.
