@DarkKirby Exactly. This was basically a parody/tribute to SMB. I mean, look at TeamFourStar. They have been making DBZ parodies for YEARS! AND have a Patreon account! So people saying "Oh, he's stealing, he's stealing!" is total BS.
Now, on the other hand, how he HANDLED the situation(dealing with his fans back then and dealing with Nintendo now), Is a completely different situation. He REALLY should've had more tact than that.
@LUIGITORNADO Kid?! Fool, I'm 34 years old! What, a guy can have a passion for good animation? Everybody's on here like he made a bad Mario clone. He didn't! He made a parody of something he really loves, but he went about it the wrong way. Now, if he could get under the wing of somebody like, say, Machinima(or however you spell it), he could probably still do those.
@Smash_kirby My thing is, I know it's their IP, I know it's their right, but I PROMISE you, other people are taking donations and doing something in the neighborhood of this. It really struck a chord with me because I've been following this series ever since almost a decade ago on Newgrounds and have loved this series ever since. Plus, doing cool stuff like this cost a LOT of time, effort, resources, as well as finances.
I know it shouldn't be excused for what he did, but dude. Being a graphic artist is brutal when you have all of these cool ideas, but no type of resources or help...
I'm SICKOVIT, NINTENDO!!! First, you stop listening to the fans! THEN, when the fans make something awesome, YOU TAKE IT DOWN!! I'm getting REALLY tired of your crap, Nintendo!!
I'm glad I have the XL. The whole deal of it not coming with a power cable was nothing to me because a buddy of mine went through 2 or 3 DSi XLs and I had power cables to spare. My only gripe is the resolution of the screen. Which reminds me. Can't wait for the Revealing 4 months from now...
@Tempestryke Ugh, the subrosian dance hall. Only beatable on the ORIGINAL hardware on which it was made. Emulation? Nope Virtual Console? HA! A lot of timed button presses that are supposed to be in sync with the game are impossible if the software is emulated in ANY form!
I wouldn't compare this to really major games on the Wii U. It's simple, short and sweet. Plus, it works, which is kudos to the programmer. Remember, even Pong was simple, too.
Does that mean Nintendo's pulling a Steam and having your name tethered to an account instead of a stankin device?? WOO-HOO!!! Welcome to the 21st century, Nintendo!
I believe it if and ONLY IF, it's a complete edition. A new one.... nope. As far as the "several" other NX titles, good. NX will need all of the help it can get.
In retrospect, I kinda wished they called it the "Super 3DS" with the beefed up processor and GPU... And give the American version the Fuchsia/Lavender button combination just like the SNES in the 90s. Good times...
@GammaNoises Exactly!! As I said in a recent post, HD games are costly and take forever to make. If it releases this year, it will have an even worse lineup than the Wii U did!
Nope. Don't want it. At this rate, it will be a watered-down, kiddie-gloved game that nobody will recognize. Meanwhile, EVERYTHING'S STILL AWESOME IN JAPAN!!! >
I'll wait until it's live. The Internet spoils the magic for watching the most awesome commercials of the year... Now If I MISS it, THEN I will go to the interwebs.
Wow... With Sony, their stuff's GREAT, but the cost of maintaining is staggering. Meanwhile, with Nintendo, their stuff's decent, but at least it's not running in the red. My question is, what would happen if $ony gets TOO far in the red...?
Personally, with the NX on the horizon, I hope that they at least do this. Build all of the Wii U games that are in the creation and planning stages and finish them. Then, as the NX gets popular, use the Wii U as a retro machine to still somewhat get their money's worth. That should at least keep the Wii U going for at least 3 more years... Just an idea.

I kinda agree, but we will let E3 decide it's fate.

@Smash_kirby Yeah, I will definitely give you that. I just don't want to see another dream quelled by another corporation.

Re: Rumour: Star Fox Zero Facing Development Niggles, Another Delay Could Happen
They Prooooooobably wouldn't have a problem like this if they had a respectable game engine for the Wii U. Just sayin'.

Re: Review: Mega Man Battle Network 6: Cybeast Falzar / Gregar (Wii U eShop / GBA)
I still wished Crapcom released this as a DS exclusive. It's a good game with unforgettable music, but ultimately feels like a step backwards.

Re: Rumour: Super Smash Bros. Planned as NX Launch Title, Bandai Namco Working on "Several" Games
I believe it if and ONLY IF, it's a complete edition. A new one.... nope. As far as the "several" other NX titles, good. NX will need all of the help it can get.
Re: Talking Point: My Nintendo Can Be a Tipping Point in Nintendo's Approach To User Accounts
@abbyhitter I kinda hope that they would at least TRY to do something similar like that in the future.
