Re: Metroid Prime 4 Confirmed For Nintendo Switch, But Retro Studios Isn't Involved

MIDP

@-Green-
They would never show the game at this point.
They have a bunch of other games on the way and already here.
It would be a waste for Nintendo to give anything at all away when they can basically fill up their whole next years E3 with Metroid if poop hits the fan and they end up not having much else to show at the time.
I'm sure next years E3 will be all about Pokémon Switch and Metroid and Smash, if it doesn't get shown earlier.

Re: Remake of Metroid II, Metroid: Samus Returns, Announced for 3DS at E3

MIDP

@Mommar
I agree and love that you are able to point it out.
Mighty No9 has this as well.
There is something about that graphical look that is just unpleasant.

Still though, I'm sure the game will be fun.
It might not be a master piece, but its hard to go wrong with running jumping and shooting stuff in a Metroid suit in space.
Its also a remake of a game that was already fun, and that game hade severe problems in many ways.

So to conclude, this could've and should've been better done, but lets just buy this but make sure we make our voices heard so that they can fix the next Switch version.
Because at this point, if we don't buy it, we'll never see Metroid again(what has it been, like 7 years not counting Federation Force) or at least not for another x years in this form at least.
Usually I'd say speak with your money and don't buy it, but this is an edge case where we just got to make our voices heard instead, hopefully reviewers can criticize it if we make enough noice in comment sections about the crappy look/graphics

Re: Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 Outed By Korean Rating, Nintendo Release Uncertain

MIDP

Calm down everybody, I'm sure we'll get this.
It'll probably just come a little later to the Switch.
And if not, then just get it on PC or something.

I just finished the first Legacy Edition...or at least the games.
Re-beating some of them, but beating 4-6 for the first time.
Lots of fun!
Re-beating the X games on my New Nintendo 3DS now.
Stuck on the final boss, sure is a female dog.

Re: Random: Check Out This Neat 3D View of the Nintendo Switch

MIDP

I'm just wondering how Mario Kart will play using the cons sideways without shoulder buttons.

Ok, funny enough, responding to my own message, before even posting it(this is weird).
I turned off my 3DS and tried figuring out how it would feel.
If they let us accelerate using Y, then X could be used for items and B for drifting.
This would actually work I believe.
But that leaves out the item swap thingy. It could use A, but that could be weird.
What do you guys think?

Re: Review: River City: Tokyo Rumble (3DS)

MIDP

Brian Altano said on NVC that this game is apparently amazing.
Just like the old school game, but much better.
I downloaded it but haven't had time to play it yet, but I am pretty sure it's more than a 6 and closer to an 8 based on what I've seen on YouTube and heard from other sources.

Re: Review: Terraria (3DS)

@SahashraLA
Um, the N3DS is far superior to the original. It runs way smoother, faster and better. It feels better, the 3D can actually be used now, and the extra buttons make a great use in many games.
The screen also looks way better, and battery life too, of course.
I tried going back to my old 3DS just to compare, it is practically impossible.
The 2DS is also great because it costs basically nothing.
The N3DS is in my opinion the best Nintendo console ever made.
And I own pretty much all of them.

Re: Video: Watch the First Two Episodes of Pokémon Generations

MIDP

I'm sadly disappointed.
Mostly in Giovannis character. "All Pokémon exist solely for the use of Team Rocket" does not sound like a thing that a sophisticated master villain would say or think.
It's funny how something so small can ruin pretty much everything.
To have a motivation or belief like that really makes him just another stereotypical villain without a realistic personality.
I mean, money, power...but no, his belief is that he wants to control ALL Pokémon?
Does he think that he is going to steal all of them, and why would that even be of any importance?
It's like the most stereotypical BS villain ever.
It's something that works great in a sidescroller like Mario, but here I was hoping they would make this anime more aimed towards adults and instead they make the original anime seem way more appealing, at least in their depiction of Giovanni.
Sadly disappointed, really.

Re: Sega 3D Fukkoku Archives 3: Final Stage Adds Thunder Force III

MIDP

@Grumblevolcano
Yup, couldn't agree more.
I so need a multiplayer version of that on my 3DS.
SEGA, can you please, kindly take my money, I'll give it to you for a simple version of Sonic 3 & Knuckles that allows local play.
I just played a ton of Sonic 2 with my girlfriend. Now that was fun...but to be able to use Tails and be able to fly, and also have the ability to get 14 chaos emeralds and become Hyper and unlock a new final stage...oh yeah, and also be able to actually save the progress...come on SEGA.
We need this in our lives.
It's your best showcase of Sonic done right. It would be so timely now ahead of Sonic Mania.
Then please make Sonic Mania a continueation of that game too.

Re: Review: Ninja Smasher! (3DS eShop)

MIDP

I beat this game and highly recommend it.
This is a 2D Platformer done right, costing almost nothing.
The feel when you fight in this game is absolutely amazing.
It's like you bounce in the air while slashing the enemies, hard to explain unless you try it.
And please do, I hope more people support this developer so that we could perhaps get a sequel.

SPOILER

Once beaten, the game unlocks really interesting characters to replay the game with, which allows you to choose different paths to do it as well.

Honestly one of the best games I've ever played for this price, if not the best.

Re: Takedown Notice May Spell the End for Digger Dan DX

MIDP

You can't copyright "Gameplay Elements" as the developer is stating, only things that are branded, such as names, characters, etc. but even those have to be like almost identical in order to classified as infringement.
This is BS, since we don't even know what the reason for the takedown is.

Re: Review: Terraria (3DS)

MIDP

@sillygostly
The problem lies not in the quality of graphics but the fact that everything in one world is loaded at once.
I think the only things that spawn are enemies that are within x amount from you.
I mean, if you drop an item on the other side of the coast, it will still be laying there.
So every block makes the CPU work.

I am playing it on my New 3DS and can't put the damn thing away.
It is in every way one of the best games I've ever played ever.
Anything under a 9/10 is not accurate.
Sure, I haven't played it in 30 FPS and lag, but I know this version I have has some issues like random crashing, so I got to save all the time.
But even with this problem the game is freakin' 9/10 at least, and 10/10 in my opinion.
The only better games on the 3DS might be Kid Icarus Uprising and Super Smash Bros - maybe.
At the rate of fun I'm having with the game right now, I'd say it is the best game on the console.

Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Browser-Based '3D' Legend of Zelda Demo

MIDP

Uuhm, so telling you that you are a nice guy wouldn't be illegal either, but that would in fact make me a rainbow banana.
That is honestly the worst argument ever to anything.

They are being happy elephants because they don't let their fans enjoy and celebrate the product they love when in this case it wouldn't hurt Nintendo at all, but rather make the brand of Zelda even more familiar.
When fans of other companies do this kind of stuff, they don't shut them down constantly and sue them(not in this case, but many others) like Nintendo does.
That is why Nintendo is still way behind their time and I partially have stopped buying their products and moved to others more and more.

Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Browser-Based '3D' Legend of Zelda Demo

MIDP

Nintendo has done it again!
This would've been the best version of the game.
I've never had so much fun playing he original.
This is one of few times where I feel graphics have done a huge difference.
The world simply felt more immersive and/or alive.
Exploring felt really rewarding for some reason, even if it was the same game I've played before.

If Nintendo are being douche bags about this, I feel that it would be justified only if they actually made a version that looks like this or similar enough.
The 3D/2D angle they had was magnificent!

Re: Digital Foundry Breaks Down The Improved Performance of New 3DS

MIDP

@MIDP
Also, I'm urprised anyone actually expected any more exclusives.
I thought they would be the one and maybe a maximum of 2-3, maybe even 10 tops if something vey unrealistic happened.
I mean, it came out a year ago, and there wasn't really any info about anyone even learning about how to utilize the new improvements or why there would even be a reason too, why would a studio who is spending money on developing to the 3DS limit themselves to New 3DS only?
I mean, I honsetly didn't think that anyone seriously thought exclusives would be a thing, I upgraded because the machine is just way better, smoother, feels better, looks WAY BETTER, still really cheap, I could give my old one to my GF, circle pad, even though limited, but still there.
Like I said, great machine. Best console ever, worth every penny, too cheap even if you ask me, but I'll take it, obviously.

Re: Digital Foundry Breaks Down The Improved Performance of New 3DS

MIDP

Why are they talking about the New 3DS as if it isn't good?
It is literally the best handheld ever made by Nintendo and probably overall(depends if you measure specs, thinking VITA, or just total experience from available titles etc.).

It is fixing everything the original was lacking, when it comes to the intentions of the original. It obviously has some flaws, but compared to the original which was great, the New 3DS is F'n magic.

Best console I've ever had.

Re: Random: Ronda Rousey "Always Wanted To Be Samus"

MIDP

@Seanmyster6
Are there any specific instances?
Likea can I find anything on YouTube or any articles?

Other than beating up her bf, which of course is pretty serious. But even something like that (for some reason) doesn't make people this hated. I've read tons of articles on people who did domestic abuse without not even close to this much hate in the comments.
Most times its rather the opposite, that people just ignore that part and keep loving them for whatever they were loved for in the first place.

Re: Nintendo Targets and Blocks Mario Kart Hack Videos From YouTube

MIDP

I've about had it with Nintendo and The Pokemon Company.
They're so full of it.
Nintendorth Korea.
Trying to control every aspect of their IP's being so out of F'n touch that they don't get that it actually F's it up by acting that way.

People who do this stuff do it because they're really into Nintendo games. They are so consumed in it that this is how they use their time, to put up any kind of crazy video on the internet. They could choose any game, but no, they choose Nintendos games.
So the people who watch this become constantly reminded of the brand which translates to more people that are aware of it, and care about it, and sit and spend their time with it.

So instead of embrassing this, Nintendo is encouraging ALL these video makers and viewers to not care about their product.
Nintendo is seriousely communist/dictator/authoritharians of video games, it is embarrasing how out of touch they are.

I was really excited about the NX, but I've had it now.
There's been too much shit like this now.
I hope it flops so that they are forced to rethink their strategy.
I even more so hope it flops so bad they go bankrupt(probably not likely) or at least have to move away from consoles.
Because if looking at how out of touch they are with the world today, they deserve it, that is capitalism, if you can't run your company and right and follow the trends of people around the world, then usually that will cost you, it should be no different for them.

Either ways, I'm not buying the NX, since like I said, I've had it with them.

Re: 'Pokémon Reorchestrated' Has Its 'Kanto Symphony' Album Removed From YouTube By The Pokémon Company

MIDP

Stop blaming YouTube, they have nothing to do with this, what is wrong with you people?
It is the idiots at the Pokémon company who filed this, YouTube simply has to obey to what they say since its their content.
If you want change, then let's sign a petition telling the Pokemon Company to run off or let us fans be fans.

As long as we fans are OK with this behavior, The Pokemon Company will continue being jerks.

Re: Review: Minecraft: Story Mode - Episode 1: The Order of the Stone (Wii U eShop)

MIDP

Got the first 4 episodes on Android, waiting for the 5th.
Simply amazing! I love it so much, can't recommend it enough.
One of the best experiences I've had with gaming/multimedia whatever this game classifies as, because it's not really a game I feel, but rather like an interactive movie.
Either way, do yourselves a favor and don't pass this one up. At least try the first episode to see if its for you. I had never played a game like this before, I am already looking for the genre and trying to find more.
I am also really interested in Minecraft itself now and will buy me a copy of that too since this game really made me fall in love with that world.
