Re: Mario & Sonic London Olympics Sprints to 2m Sales

Papa_Godzilla

not sure why it sells. i tried the demo and it was.... worthless.
dsiwares titles are more sophisticated than this.

comon, this is like a microgames game, but boring.
What about the shooting range. Click on R 5 times in a row and youre done. without thinking. just click when it says so.
What about the soccer thing. it could have been nice to play, but... all you need to do is push directional button at the right time.

no really, dont get caught because there is mario or sonic in there. the game wants your money and thats about it. there is 0 freedom or 0 sense of a sport there.
Again, very young audience might find it fun for an afternoon or so.

Re: Review: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (Wii)

@TikiTong
man, dont forget the humongous Skyrim. This is one hell of a huge game.

what did you expect from MW3 Wii. a shooter on the Wii other than metroid is ridiculous. unless its something cartooney or with aliens, i dont even see how developpers care for the Wii.
Wii is good for childish or bright and simple graphics, but not for realistic graphics.

Re: Next Zelda on 3DS a "Continuation of Past Efforts" says Aonuma

Papa_Godzilla

majoras mask will be an instant buy. i never had a chance to play it, my n64 broke before it.

if its link to the past, well...not gonna buy. i mean, i did it so many times. even if it features 3D effect or a bonus dungeon.
please make it majora mask. pleeeaaasseearghll
even twilight princess would be an instant buy

Re: Review: Balloon Kid (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)

Papa_Godzilla

i loved it when i was younger. cant say i will today, but ill get it for the nostalgia around it. its a title i remember a lot from the gameboy era, and there isnt a lot of them.

but not knowing it first, i would never ever buy it. i remember it was hard, very hard. bouncy too. too bouncy.

Re: 3DS Update Lets You Join Your Friends' Online Games

Papa_Godzilla

i have no 3ds friends
ill browse the update for sure, but...
they cut the online features from their games, what will we do with this feature anyway.
i would have had a blast with star fox, but i had to sold it for the lack of online multiplayer.
i would have used it on street fighter, but it was lame to play online with it.
i would have used it for sure with monster hunter tri but... they removed the online feature ! no, they simply didnt want to put it in !

Re: Machinarium Finally, Officially Cancelled

Papa_Godzilla

@RVN
true. and yet they seem to go into the gadget again with the WiiU. same goes with the 3DS.

the 3ds is saved by the backward compatibility and the huge library of DS games before it. since i didnt get much ds titles over the years, i still have good meat to bite on while waiting for 3ds games to come out.

Re: Final Wii U Form to Be Shown At E3 2012

Papa_Godzilla

@spookybif
true. they already entered something risky with the Wii. they shouldnt do more damage now and go for the mean powerhouse machine nintendo needs.
seriously. if nintendo can have a powerful thing that will attract third parties plus their franchised charatcers, tis one hell of a winner. kinda a mix of ps3 and nintendo.

ill stick with the 3ds, hoping nintendo wont suffer too much from their mistake and give us great deals on the handheld side. handheld is the future of nintendo.

Re: Final Wii U Form to Be Shown At E3 2012

Papa_Godzilla

hahahahaha well this isnt the thing that will make nintendo rank up in charts
wether you like it or not, graphic power will still dominate, as with physics technology so the consoles will be able to have complex games and the titles with the biggest productions.

Re: Nintendo Posts 70 Billion Yen Net Loss in Past Quarter

Papa_Godzilla

@Ryno hahaha so true
i have high hopes for the 3DS. nintendo still has a powerful hand into the handheld market. theyre the best. just started slow with the new gen. the ps3 did so, and to me, its the best out there now.

because to me, the handheld is not meant for huge detailed graphics like a ps3. its meant to be quick gaming, fun,innovative and new stuff. so far, thats what theyre doing. slowly yeah, but surely.
But really...nintendo loss the home console war, get over it and support the 3DS instead!

Re: 3DS Hardware Sales Show Big Improvements

Papa_Godzilla

@Koto
hostile ? not really. just disapointed. my childhood was all about the snes. it was powerful.it had super in front of all games. SUPER ! games were extraordinary, third party developpers were giving all they could for quality gaming.
Then, the n64 came in with mario and blam, it blew me away. link, blam blew me away. smash bros, blam blew me away,then...nothing much else. then sony came in and totally blew me even morewith the ps1,ps2 and now the ps3.
while the gamecube has super smash bros and zelda twilight princess, i dont recall much titles that were outstanding. even mario was slacking off.
The Wii was so promising, i had lots of hope for it...then i was...totally disapointed. all seemed so cheap, gadgety, fun for an evening then great for accumulating dust. Even smash bros didnt go much further than the gamecube one.(else than a single player, it didnt go much further!) sony on his side kept me getting those awesome titles, exceptionnal rpgs, keeping steady with graphic technolgies. I will never find huge detailed environments like GTA4,skyrim or battlefield3 on the Wii or WiiU.
Then when i saw the WiiU informations, it all felt like the gamecube/Wii cycle coming back again. A funny gadget that will accumulate dust after a couple of weeks. it will have its high moments with a smash bros , a mario and a zelda. again. AGAIN. third parties wont go at full speed like they do with the other consoels who can have all the latest technology,hype and budget.

but at least i have my 3DS, which i use every freaking day, which plays all DS titles that reminds me all what i liked from the snes.
ill wait and see for the wiiU, but its not even on my future buying list. plus,smash will be on 3DS, killing the major factor why i would get a wiiU.

Deception, not hostility.

Re: 3DS Hardware Sales Show Big Improvements

Papa_Godzilla

screw the WiiU ! focus on the 3DS ! nintendo should become a handheld focused game company.
Geez , and cut theg ames prices. 30-35 should be the maximum. unless they release and real deep game, i wouldnt mind paying 45 or 50 dollars for the next final fnatasy or dragonquest. but that price for starfox was abusive and didnt pleased me much.
i paid less than this for regular DS games that provided me ton more gameplay and replay value.

Re: Nintendo Posts 70 Billion Yen Net Loss in Past Quarter

Papa_Godzilla

the real problems are simple; they didnt go for the 2 winning condition in videogaming:
1- horsepower for home consoles. That's all there is. Third parties have budget, motivation and SELL charts to use that more than a gadget based console.
2- cheaper games for the handheld. its sad, but its true. the iphone took a large part of the pie, nintendo should take back what was his.

i love nintendo, yeah. but i do prefer deep and beautiful gaming. This is what we can have now with our games. Before, we couldnt have stunning graphics, se we mostly relied of gameplay novelty. Now we can have both with the ps3, the xbox or the pc. Where does the Wii or the Wii U stands ? nowhere near. those nintendo console rely on their franchised characters and their fan-based consumers.
unless they come back wih raw power like the ps4 or the next xbox will too, they wont make it. no way. i dont even plan for a Wii U even if it features awesome link,zelda,mario or whatever franchised games. i didnt get a Wii even if skyward sword looks awesome.
BUT they remain champions with the handheld console. they should focus on the 3DS more than anything. screw that Wii-U, it wont sell as good as the next playstation or xbox.
make quality games, bring third party devs in the mood and dominate the handheld market like the DS did.

Re: GunLord Offers Conclusive Proof That You Can't Keep a Good Console Down

Papa_Godzilla

is this serious ? there will be super limited distribution, i cant believe they actually release games on dead system.

well, if theyre not dead, theyre in terminal phase, attached to a respiratory machine and an artificial heart. waiting ti die on morphin.
They have already lived a long a plentiful life, its time to let them and release things on the latest consoles. that game looks fun to play, i would get it if it was am eshop game ! not a retail on an old system. comon.

Re: Nano Assault Trailer Shoots to Thrill

Papa_Godzilla

this is the price point every 3ds games should be.

here, i only wonder what will be the longevity of the game. levels are fun to do on a first run, but will it last for another one ? whats the replay value of this title? will it be like starfox? almost none ?
I have learned to skip day one mindless buy for this reason.

unless its a solid rpg, i stay far from games without replay value!

Re: Mario Kart 7 Online Features Come Into View

Papa_Godzilla

lame.
so far, the 3ds seems bad for online playing. doesnt look too promising.
i live near montreal, and unless i really seek deeply for 3ds owners, i doubt ill be able to play with the wifi feature. i tried with firefox, no good results.

its like if the online mode was so weak that developpers just skip it. street fighter used it, and it wasnt very satisfying.
let me doubt for monster hunter 4 or heroes of ruins.

Re: Review: Cave Story 3D (3DS)

Papa_Godzilla

I will be buying it used in 2 years.
because i did the eshop title twice recently...
and the pc version twice too.

its an excellent game, the best eshop title i bought including gameboy remakes and 3d classics. the BEST. the 3ds version goes in my priority list for sure, but not for now.

great review, thanks !

Re: EnjoyUp Announces Gaia's Moon for DSiWare

Papa_Godzilla

their games are all in my wishlist, sadly i didnt have the fund to get them yet. so games coming this fall, i have to chose carefully my stuff. eshop isnt a priority.

1button? will it be like that old game jetpack? i loved this game.

Re: Review: Spider-Man: Edge of Time (3DS)

Papa_Godzilla

another movie game, another crappy time.

i still have to find yet a 3DS title that will match the content of a ps3 game.
Regular DS titles gave me much more ocntent and time of gaming yet.
where is dragonquest 3ds ? i spent 250hours into the 9th installment !

Re: Brand New Cave Story 3D Gameplay Trailer

Papa_Godzilla

played the original one on pc and bought the dsiware on the eshop...

sure this one looks damn fluid and fast. its all three dee and all but...
what more will it give ? is there any more content, new areas or modes ?
because i already did it 2 times on pc, 2 times on my 3ds...
i still want it as a 3ds version, but geez... 40 dollars spent on a remake again ?

Re: Review: Sonic Adventure 2: Battle (GameCube)

Papa_Godzilla

6 ?? are you insane ? i played this game 5 or 6 times !
this is one of my most memorable gamecube title, and you give it 6 ???
time has passed, games got more complexe. but this title really merits more than a mere 6.
8 is a minimum to me.
i usually agree with nlife ratings, but this one doesnt fit the pack. sorry.

the 2 points it loses to me is the ugly chaos garden design and the car driving stages. elseway, it is one of the few reason i loved the gamecube.
i dont particularly like sonic games usually, but this one remains in my top 5 gamecube games.

Re: Ubisoft: "Nobody Proved Wii Does FPS Controls Better"

Papa_Godzilla

the darkness... this is nonsense
online play is for...noobs ?
wow this is like taking all the seriousness and credits you had so far and throwing them in a garbage can.
im sorry, your points just dont make sense anymore. online play is mainly the new way for the last few years. playing against bots versus playing against a human is totally different, much less predictable. you call that noob ?
i dont get it.
i play the single player mode in every game, but but the real deal comes when the multiplayer starts. there are single player shooters, like bio shock as an example. but here ubi is talking about war sims like ghost recon or call of duty.
and dont even try to say the mouse control is destroyed by the keyboard.
its the keyboard that makes the difference. this is like comparing a toy with a professional tool.
just learn to use a keyboard properly.
i love the wii. but it remains the family toy. and a shooter is not a family friendly game.
there are single player games, there are multiplayer games. and what has been mentionned in the article are games you mainly play online. call of duty takes all its sense when you try it with people online. yeah its fun alone, but you can really see its been developped for online gaming.

Re: Ubisoft: "Nobody Proved Wii Does FPS Controls Better"

Papa_Godzilla

this is funny really.
wiimote and nunchuk is so gimmicky, yeah its fun.
but its nowhere near a real online experience in blackops or battlefield with a ps3 controller.
yeah its fun for the single player audience, but it will never convince me for online gaming. it just cant compete with the precision you can have with controllers or mouse/keyboard.

Re: Ubisoft: "Nobody Proved Wii Does FPS Controls Better"

Papa_Godzilla

no way it can right now. i tried both, and the ps3 controller really does a splendid job. a little more time is needed to get used to, but everything goes naturally after a while. dont base opinions on first experience only.

but the BEST way remains the pc controls with mouse and keyboard.
mouse acts mostly like a pointer control, but much more fluid and precise. The keyboard provides you with tons of customisation for your need, style and comfortability. plus you can have have shortcuts placed the way you want them, and this way you can have a scheme that will be optimised and give you total control.

i really dont see how he wiimote will be able to outclass so much customisation and precision. its impossible right now with this technology. Right now, it mainly acts like the arcade shooters. point and shoot... The only positive point i give it is the fact its easier for youngers or newcomers in the gaming world.

unless they can provide a call of duty with scaled plastic guns similar to airsoft guns with a very precise aiming, i doubt it will ever be the thing for shooters.
and tell me why buying nintendo consoles when youre a shooter fanatic ? nintendo wont give you realistic graphic results of even HD immersive experience.
nintendo is all about their fun factor and characters... leave shooters to the other companies please.
