Re: Feature: Five Franchises That Deserve A Fresh Chance on the Nintendo NX

HorseRenoir

I really want a sequel to Kid Icarus Uprising. It's a shame that the control scheme turned people off, because when you get used to it (I completely understand if you can't, though) it's a really fun game, with tons of replay value, fun characters and dialogue, awesome soundtrack and great visuals for the 3DS. I'm sure it would have been a lot more sucessful if it was released on the Wii with pointer controls instead of the 3DS, but alas.

Re: Nintendo of America Issues Takedown Request on AM2R, Ending the Project

HorseRenoir

I really hope Nintendo at least gets a damn clue and see that fans are desperate for a true Metroid game. If what they take away from the failure of Federation Force (not sure how it's selling in the US, but I assume not much ) is "Naaaaaaah, they don't want Metroid anymore, we shouldn't bother" I... I don't even know, man. I'm already afraid of Star Fox being put on cryosleep again because people weren't so hot on Zero, even though it's full of stuff people never wanted in the first place.

Re: E3 2016: New Kind Of Mario Game Is Coming, Says Shigeru Miyamoto

HorseRenoir

Cool. I'm not gonna lie, the prospect of Galaxy 3 would be more immediatly exciting for me, but going on a fresher direction is probably the best thing for the franchise. Personally, I just hope it's more like 64, Sunshine or Galaxy than 3D Land and World. Don't get me wrong, I really like those games, but I prefer my 3D Mario games to be a little less like 2D Mario games, especially when those are still being released. And if this is a 2D game, I just hope they finally move away from New Super Mario Bros.

Re: Video: Learn More About Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2

I finished another playthrough of the first one two days ago, now I'm playing the second one again. Man, these are some seriously fantastic games. I think 2 has better level design, and the first one has better atmosphere and a more epic feel to it. Soundtrack, I can't choose, both are incredible. I just love both games to death. I really want a third game, just imagine how incredible those crazy galaxies would look in HD. And if the soundtrack is as good as the other two...man, I want a third one.

Sorry, just needed a place to gush about these games. Can you tell I love them?

Re: 10 Years On, Hideki Kamiya Still Doesn't Think He Could Better Okami

HorseRenoir

I love Okami so much, definitely one of my favorites. If anyone is planning on playing it, I'll say this: Yes, the beginning is very slow. I would say the game doesn't really pick up until you get to the first dungeon (Tsuta Ruins I mean, not sure if Hana Valley counts) which I guesstimate it's three-four hours of gameplay for first-timers, but trust me, it does pick up after that. I'm saying this because I have a friend that gave up on the game because of the beginning, and I think it sucks that he'll lose out on the rest because of that.

Re: Nintendo Download: 16th April (North America)

HorseRenoir

Got DK64 and the Smash DLC. I think the DLC is a bit pricey for just some costumes, but I'm a completionist, what can I say. Guess that explains why I love DK64. And next week, MK8 DLC that I already bought and Mewtwo. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

Re: Video: Donkey Kong 64 Tumbles Onto Wii U Virtual Console

HorseRenoir

This is one of my childhood classics. Can't wait for the release in America. I really hope Nintendo decides to make another 3D Donkey Kong someday. And that they bring David Wise and Grant Kirkhope for the soundtrack.

Also, this game has a widescreen option. Not sure if you know that.

Re: YouTube Stars Aren't Happy With Nintendo's Revenue-Sharing 'Creators Program'

HorseRenoir

I already hated PewDiePie's videos just because I think he's annoying, but I'm getting the impression he only cares about money, he doesn't even care what the fans say, since he disables comments. And now this "oh,Nintendo games went to the bottom of my list because I don't get money". Yeah, having fun is overrated, huh? I don't fully agree with Nintendo's policies on this, but that sense of entitlement just pisses me off. OK, rant over.

Re: Wii Disc Software Heading to the Wii U eShop

HorseRenoir

I'll probably won't use most of this, since my Wii is still plugged in. It's still cool, tough. Hopefully they release some titles I don't own eventually, like Kirby's Return to Dreamland.

But...yeah, it's not looking good for GC and N64 on the VC. And I still can't think of a good reason to not release those.

Re: Poll: Which is the Best Pokémon Game?

HorseRenoir

Tough choice, but I'll go with Hoenn. Especifically, ORAS. Just love that region, to me it's the Pokémon game that makes me feel more that I'm on a adventure. My least favorites are probably HGSS and XY. XY just has a very poor post game, and while I like Mega Evolutions, there aren't a lot of new Pokémon.

And I'm not really a fan of the world of HGSS. Johto felt small and crammed to me, and Kanto is a smaller,watered-down version of the original. I'd like much better to have a single,well-constructed region like the other Pokémon games. I know GSC made a lot of improvements over the originals, but since I started by playing games that came after it, I just wasn't blown away by it. I do like the idea of having more than one region though. I kind of want GF to do something like that with more care in the future. Still, I think XY and HGSS are very good games. Looking foward to Z,let's see if they'll make me think more fondly of Kalos in relation to the other regions.
