Re: Guide: Getting Started With My Nintendo

Grustein

So... for all of us living in countries without miitomo, we can only earn 90 platinum each month, which means if you do all the missions, it'll take 9 weeks to get one of the actual games. People with access to miitomo can get one in 1-2weeks. Not to complain about free stuff, but that feels a bit unfair.

Re: Nintendo Begins Takedown Proceedings on Super Mario 64 HD Fan Project

Grustein

Maybe the fact that some sites like the Verge reported this with headlines like "Play Super Mario 64 In Your Browser" have something to do with it. Which could be seen as a misrepresentation of their product, since this in fact is not SM64.

This was a demo for the character controller, not Super Mario 64.
What better way to demonstrate something than putting it in terms people understand, or in this case, a game people know?
"...this was created purely for demonstration purposes of the character controller..."

"Hey, let's make our clone 3D and tilt the camera a bit, then people think we actually put some effort into this."

"But sir, then we need to actually make some models"

"Ah it's fine, we only need like five, a bird, two lamps and two blocks of buildings to alternate in the background. We should be ready for release at friday, no wait, next year, then it'll look like this actually took time to make"

Re: Hands On: Storing Pocket Monsters in Pokémon Bank

Grustein

I'm so happy there is a standard for transfering pokemons between generations from now on, to get my Diamond-pokemon over to Black2 then to the bank through the transporter was torture, but it's all over now

...buuut, what about flipnote? I'm still waiting

Re: Review: Art Academy: SketchPad (Wii U eShop)

Grustein

This is actually what I hoped Art Academy was the first time I heard of it, just a painting tool, nothing else, and that's what I wanted. Was always a bit afraid that Art Academy was only tutorials without a "freepaint mode." So I ended up with Colors! 3D for the 3ds and now this on my WiiU

Re: Sakurai Aiming To Please "The Silent Majority" With New Smash Bros.

Grustein

@Doma I'm not so sure, I have played both Melee and Brawl for hundreds of hours, and I like brawl better, sure it has slipping and sonic's super smash, but HEY, no more wavedashing, thats a pluss. But that is not the reason I like brawl more though, I'm not completly sure why, but it feels good, is fun, so YAY.
And of course people care about the roster.

Re: Interview: Collecting Smiles - Colors! 3D

Grustein

@mechasark What? NO! sure pressure sensitivity is a neat and very, VERY useful feature, but to say that the application is useless because of the lack of it is taking it too far, isn't it? At least to say it would be useless to a professional, maybe to you, but from what I have seen in the gallery, there is a good handfull of professionals who have made some really good pieces with the original Colors!. But yeah, I agree that it's really a lacking feature from the 3DS.
