@0rwellians0n The double standards in your posting is staggering. You yell "respect my opinion" and then call people names and make childish remarks about people who have a different opinion to you. And then you tell people not to call people names while you've done the exact same! In the same post!
@Damo Fair point. IPs do get picked up by new owners, but there's bound to be some that don't and would be fair game for Freeware endeavors. But there's a bit of a difference between that and emulating games that are still being sold by the owner.
Ladies. You don't need lingerie to make your man or woman happy! Believe me, my other half looks incredible in their regular underwear and I'm sure you do too.
Ironically, when she's walking around in it, I want to get them off her. But when she leaves a pair lying around, I want her to put them away! #relationships
Nintendo will DIE! Just like Apple and Disney did.
Oh wait.
But seriously, it'll be fine. Miyamoto has spoken several times about mentoring the next generation. His skills and philosophy will live on after he's gone.
If Gamevice think their patent has been infringed or their idea stolen by Nintendo, they have every right to take it to court. That's not unreasonable is it?
By moaning about it and even hoping they go bankrupt and lose their livelihoods, you're effectively saying it's ok for big companies to steal ideas.
Are you really saying that if you invented and patented something today you should have no right to defend it when it's stolen? That's an extremely worrying and frankly childish mentality.
I'm not saying Gamevice are in the right. But if they think they are , they should be fighting it.
Great game! Would love a sequel. Personally I like the original PS2 version best. The motion controls and the cuts to the Wii version made it a bit disappointing.
I stared at the Japan boxart for a while before I voted for it. I couldn't decide if it was fun or derpy. I eventually decided it was ok and interesting. Otherwise it would have been that lovely black marble European box
Europe. That style is very reminiscent of the time. You could use that for an action movie title. The Japan one is forgettable. And the US one... just no.
Not surprised Japan is winning this one. I am surprised the US version is second though. Look at that hideous bit of the black border sticking out! All wrong.
There are garbage levels. But there's also more quality levels then you could play in a life time, so, if you like just playing levels, it's still a great investment.
Not sure this statement is helping the situation. While I think there is a lot of mountains being made out of diglett hills here, and possibly some translation issues, it probably would have been better to just not mention the character models.
I honestly think most of the debate comes from people's different opinions over what constitutes "new".
"Rebuilt, but based off the old" "New and different " "Enhanced " "Added to"
All these could be classed as "Not the same" but some people's expectations don't match reality.
I'm trying something similar. It's fun but a lot more effort than you first imagine. I've got my first 7 done. Something to string all these levels together to make Worlds would be great.

Re: Nintendo 3DS Emulator Citra Comes To Android Smartphones
Still piracy though innit. It's not their stuff to preserve. That's up to the developers and publishers.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #44 - Super C / Probotector II
Don't really care if they're not in the game, EU box art is quality. The American and Japan boxarts are a bit forgettable.

Re: Random: "Games I Want Ported To Nintendo Switch" Twitter Hashtag Goes Viral In Japan
If they did all these ports, they wouldn't have time to make new games.
It would also harm the sale of new games. Store shelf and eShop space would be taken up by ports, meaning less visibility for new stuff.
It's nice to dream of our favourite games on our current hardware. But there's reasons they don't port everything.

Re: Gamevice Is Back With New Patent-Infringement Complaint Against Nintendo, Wants To Block US Switch Sales
If I can offer a counter argument;
If Gamevice think their patent has been infringed or their idea stolen by Nintendo, they have every right to take it to court. That's not unreasonable is it?
By moaning about it and even hoping they go bankrupt and lose their livelihoods, you're effectively saying it's ok for big companies to steal ideas.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #7 - Star Fox
All a bit grim, but I think Japan wins this time.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #6 - Mega Man 3
Europe. That style is very reminiscent of the time. You could use that for an action movie title. The Japan one is forgettable. And the US one... just no.

There are garbage levels, but there's also a hell of a lot of good courses from some very creative people. More than anyone could ever play.

I don't put up garbage IMO. I try to make proper levels. Any feedback is great
