Re: Nintendo Direct: Mario Kart World: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?

GinMiguel

Nice for what was demonstrated. The free roam has more going on for it than I thought and knock out tour interests me. Nice to have battle modes back though that was to be expected. Don't. know how I feel about the addition of enemies and creatures for the roster. Like the cow and dolphins but Goombas and Pokes I'm eh on.
I think what would've definitely convinced me of its $80 is if it had a single player campaign and elimination prix along with some other Nintendo guest stars like 8 did and might do. Though if its paid, then no for me. I'm still waiting on Kirby Air and Sonic racing before I decide

Re: Nintendo Confirms Duration For Tomorrow's Mario Kart World Direct

GinMiguel

As I''ve said, I'll tune in. I'm open to the possibility that they'll make this game worth $80 somehow but I'm waiting to see and hear from Sonic and Kirby, what's under their hoods and their worth. Air Riders and CrossWorlds could have just as much to say as World.
That said, everything we've predicted about this game. A thought could be an elimination and a single player campaign. Going back to adding a few other Nintendo IPs. That'd definitely help its case.

Re: Talking Point: Does Switch 2 Have Nintendo's Best Launch Line-Up Ever?

GinMiguel

Not the best but all things considered the game line up itself might be on par with a 2022/2017. If we count Switch 2 launch games and Switch 1 like Xenoblade X, Tomodachi Life, and Donkey Kong Country Returns. Between the brand new megabits like in Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong, the cross generation stuff like Pokemon ZA and Metroid Prime 4, the surprises like Hyrule Warriors and Kirby Air Riders and new IP in Drag X Drive. All this year. Not to mention what they're doing older Switch 1 games.

Re: Donkey Kong: Bananza, A New 3D DK Adventure, Is Confirmed For Switch 2

GinMiguel

I've been dreaming about this for years. Nintendo using other platforming mascots at the spotlight of 3d gaming. Playstation had 5 with Crash, Spyro, Sly, Jak, and Ratchet, 6 now with Astro Bot. Nintendo taking a page from them. And while they did try with DK 64 and Wario World. Kirby and the Forgotten Land and this are the them taking it for real. Point being you don't need to lean on Mario for everything.

Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate The Nintendo Direct For March 2025?

GinMiguel

I was hoping we'd atleast hear about the alleged remasters for Kirby Planet Robo Bot and Fire Emblem 4 remake would be here. But all in all some of the 3rd party stuff looked cool. The new Labyrinth game and Dragon Quest. Also Golf Journeys. Its cool for fans of Rythym Heaven and Tomodachi Life get new entry's. But I think this should've been a partner showcase. Metroid, Pokemon, Rhythm heaven, and Tomodachi Life could've had there own stuff.

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct Predictions - What Do You Want To See?

GinMiguel

Only remasters and spinoffs
A Zelda spin off if anything. Putting 3d Zelda remasters of any of them don't feel like they'd make the impact they would've. If WW,TP were to get rereleased, might as save them for a 4k boost on Switch 2. Though worse case scenario they're bound to a gamecube online service.
I think a Kirby planet robo-bot would be an appropriate swan song, and a Mario spin off like baseball.
Heck a Star Fox remake of Assault or Adventures, please not Zero, that game crashed, I'm fed up with Star Fox being stuck in 64 rehashes. I'd rather Star Fox be put on early Switch 2 so the series actually has a chance to sell but its fine. Also Fire Emblem remake, I could see that being appropriate boost for later Fire Emblem.

Re: Random: Takaya Imamura's Holding Out Hope For A Star Fox Movie

GinMiguel

I've wanted a SF movie too. Its one of the few Nintendo series I see potential for. As sick as I am of Star Fox being carried by rehashes like Star Fox. I get the feeling a lose adaptation of that is how it starts. Then expand on the universe with Krystal, Panther and so on. Though Star Fox may need some clout first before it happens.

Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Adds Characters From "SEGA Universes"

GinMiguel

Really hope we get a few non sonic characters back. Going from Transformed to Team Sonic racing gave me a feeling I'd feel if Smash brothers stripped every series representation except the Mario universe and that would be the only series put in. Bring back the Nights, Shenmue, Monkey Ball, and Skies of Arcadia stuff. Even Riders had Nights, the monkeys, and Ulala.

Re: Random: Takaya Imamura Wants To See Star Fox: Assault On Switch 2

GinMiguel

I do too. While a new modernized game with a new mission that continued the universe is my true wish. Remaking one of the gamecube games I'd be open to if its polished up and a new dev team is getting tested. I'll take anything but another retread of Starwing or Lylat Wars because they've played that card plenty with 3d remake and Zero.

Re: Random: Sonic 3's Movie Writers Would Love To Adapt Zelda: Wind Waker To The Big Screen

GinMiguel

If they're thinking about doing a very loose adaptation which only covers a portion of the story we experienced in the game like Sonic 3 did with Sonic Adventure 2, then maybe there is a chance. But if they're thinking about converting a 15 hour long adventure into a 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hour long viewing with the way Zelda games are structured, then I can only see failure, and mainly why I can only see an original story having a chance of working out with this Zelda film.

Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Has Been Added To The Official Timeline

GinMiguel

I find pieces of the timeline interesting. The Child and Adult Timelines feel like actual saga's that had pretty clear continuity. You could tell with Wind Waker and the ds games. Same with N64 games and Twilight Princess. Both timelines even have a gap for interpretation to fill that depending if you care about the characters and settings, it might be interesting to fill in about PH-ST or MM-TP. But not as a whole, the downfall and pre split have games that are out of order release wise meaning and what continuity there is being that I don't think much about the games involved.
