Re: DICE Tested Its Frostbite Engine On Wii U, Wasn't Enamoured With The Results

Well, I see blame on both sides. EA are jerks in the video game world, and Nintendo is constantly behind the tech 8-ball. I guess it's a matter of how much farther Mario, Zelda, and the moldy oldies can carry them.

Again, a better thought out Nintendo archive in the VC could be killer, but as it stands, it's just limping along, not making a great case for WiiU.

I think I've thrown in the towel on VC. Neither are what they could or should be. Some strange decisions by Nintendo. The glow around Earthbound is fascinating. An old game that diehards are looking forward to, yet it should be something of an 'oh, cool', just another good old game on VC. It's just not a Wii-U showcase, or system mover by any stretch.

Well said. There's something for everybody, and different perspectives are refreshing.

It seems I'm a G.I.Joe: Rise of Cobra game, one person fan club. Maybe that makes me special, a sort of, chosen one, when we're invaded by some evil galactic race of world destroying tentacle monsters, or something.

Often times people are just lemons, and parenting doesn't always influence an outcome one way or another. It's much more difficult today to shelter your kids from the muck than say, 50 years ago. Then, when parents do try and cut off their kids from internet, movies games, they're labeled as puritanical kooks or something.

There are no blanket, easy answers here. We definitely want government out of this area, but at the same time, we need to look at ourselves as a society, and realise there's a lot of criticism to go around.

Man, can't wait for New Leaf!
