The subject matter is dark but come on. Is cartoony. I don't mind it and don't even notice it half the time. The gameplay is solid despit the developers strong subject matter. So I ignore it.
This is such a load of crap. Nintendo you are all kinds of stupid. I knew the moment the second this got announced it would be the hot item of the holiday and that short sighted idiots at NoA would undership. Ugh.
@Pahvi hey some people still like pan and scan. More powerful to you. It would probably even help in some intense games I would imagine. I'm looking at you contra!
@Pahvi yeah sorry 50 I'd like pan and scan on movies before. Widescreen is how they were meant. Samething here. 60 is absolutely the way the game should run and play.
@Ralizah the controller is probably just preference. The rf thing though man that looks like hot garbage. The composite makes a huge difference even on the nes.
@Ralizah I have that dog bone and it's not superior I think. He dpad isn't as good and the button layout curves up which isn't as good as the og one. Also the top loader doesn't support anything but rf unless is modded and it loses a lot of the og look of the original.
Plus if you're going to mod the top loader might as well mod the og one for region free which a child can do and clean the pins or replace them with the blinking light win pins and the console works 100% if your games aren't dirty.
It sucks to have stages deleted but really if your stage has a 0% completion rate and super low in popularity then yeah I understand.
I have some stages that aren't popular and well they aren't extremely fun to play but my more balanced levels are really popular so people do speak with their stars.
Awesome! I was hoping this would happen. I held out just in case this happened. This game has Nintendo all over it. Why make a old school Nintendo inspired game and not release it on the Wii U first! Worked fine for Shovel Knight.
The way your cars react to getting hit or hitting another car ruined this game for me. I own it but it was just too hard. At the time. Not sure what I would think of it now.
The graphics were stunning though but cars were a bit too boxy.
i don't have a problem with this. release it when it's ready. I delayed game will eventually come out but a bad game will be bad forever. Post patches era. lol.
@Peach64 I understand why they are doing it. I've said it before. Doesn't mean I agree with them holding a finished game for months in their biggest market. Regardless the reason it's still their biggest.
I don't think I'm alone here when I say NoA is absolutely terrible. They had to be forced to release those 3 Wii games. NoA is absolute garbage and treat the us horrible.
I'm not trying to offend anyone in Europe I'm just stating facts. Us is their biggest market and NoA is garbage. That's why I vent.
@IceClimbers that's not true. If you're into the Nintendo ecosystem and own both a 3ds and wiiu only then a 3ds game will help when both systems have nothing.
Anyways again my opinion that holding games regardless of region when the game is ready is just dirty.
I also have the right to voice that opinion with my dollar. Which I will.
@TingLz that's not the point man. If a game is ready don't leave it on the shelf for months. Release it now. They have very little for the 3ds and wiiu coming out and this game can help. Look I'm not dumb and yes I understand WHY they are doing it but I completely disagree with it.
If a game is ready release it. Don't hold it for months to pad out your release schedule. This also goes back to xenoblade, last story and Pandora.
Noe is just better and noa is insultingly bad to nintendos #1 market. Simple as that.
Nothing like making your number one market wait again stupid NoA. I mean Europe loves Nintendo so much it makes sense why you would skip the US and make them wait. Again.
Oh wait no Europe actually loves Sony and the US is your biggest market and i will skip this game just how I've skipped every game you needlessly delayed in the US.
@3792M I was talking more about his comment about awakening not being liked by old school fe fans. Which is not entirely true since I adore the game and I'm an old fan.
@GLA yeah offensive is the right word. I'm not getting it out of principle. Withholding a finished game when NOTHING was being released is just insulting.
@MJKOP yeah man I gave my girl the classic controller to play Mario world on th Wii and I tell her to use the dpad and she used the stick. Maybe the stick is more natural to use but imo less accurate for 2d games.

@MrGuinea
You didn't notice the camera get to the checkered line faster and the count down get to one a lot faster in the 60 version?
Re: Nintendo Confirms That Upcoming European Release of F-Zero X is the 60Hz Version
Glad you guys finally get the correct version. 50 sucks ass man. Especially for a game like F Zero that it's all about speed.

@Ralizah I aleays wanted a top loader for the novelty. I might buy a modded one. To preserve my og one from my childhood.

Re: Nintendo Seems To Be Deleting Super Mario Maker Levels Without Explanation Or Warning
@A01
It sucks to have stages deleted but really if your stage has a 0% completion rate and super low in popularity then yeah I understand.
I have some stages that aren't popular and well they aren't extremely fun to play but my more balanced levels are really popular so people do speak with their stars.
Re: Axiom Verge Confirmed for Wii U Release Later This Year

I'll get this day one.

Re: Nintendo Download: 15th October (North America)
Sorry NoA. Releasing Yoshi much later in your biggest market is beyond stupid. I wouldn't have bought it months ago. As it stands I've moved on.

Re: First Impressions: Getting Down with Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
@Genesaur yeah I was generalizing which isn't good but still I'm sure most that prefer the stick are younger.
Re: First Impressions: Getting Down with Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
@MJKOP yeah man I gave my girl the classic controller to play Mario world on th Wii and I tell her to use the dpad and she used the stick. Maybe the stick is more natural to use but imo less accurate for 2d games.
Re: First Impressions: Getting Down with Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
@Genesaur because they are probably 15 years old and didn't grow up in the nes/snes era.
The stick for a 2d side scroller? Lol. It's all about he dpad.
