Re: Cave Story+

Phocks5

It would have to show SOMETHING new for me to get it. I got the plain old vanilla Cave Story for DSi ware download and I love it. But I was not going to shell out $40 for a 3D version of the exact same game in a cartridge, and I'm not going to shell out again for the exact same game, again.

Re: GAME Goes Large With 3DS XL Trade-In Deal

Phocks5

Yeah, I don't know about UK, but I know for a fact in the US, GameStop won't allow you the 2 minutes at the counter or anything in order to do a system transfer. And they won't offer any special deal to upgrade unless you trade in your old system at the exact same time you buy the new one. So you either get a deal and lose all your data, or you pay a little more and keep all your data. Considering that I have close to 100 games on my 3DS right now, I'll be waiting for Xmas for this. Use my Xmas money to help ease the pain and just keep my old one so I can keep all my games. Espcially my ambassador games.

Re: Wii Has Featured Fewer New IPs Than Rivals

Phocks5

Yeah, this is just an opportunity that someone is taking to pooh-pooh Nintendo. I've heard it said just as much that Nintendo has a problem relying too much on its intellectual property. That the only games that they make that are worth counting are their very few IPs. I don’t mind. If I had to choose and I couldn’t choose a perfect balance, I’d rather have more variety then the same IPs and sequels over and over.

Re: Heroes of Ruin Demo Hits North America Next Week

Phocks5

I still can't believe that not only did we have to wait over a week after it was realeased in the UK, and like a month after they got their demo, but that they are releasing this demo only slightly over a week before the game hits stores. Why wouldn't you have it out longer to give the hype more time to grow?

Re: Nintendo Continues Software Dominance in Japan

Phocks5

I'm still totally stoked for it. Perhaps part of the reason it didn't sell so well in UK was because the rest of the english speaking world still doesn't have it. Therefore, the ones that are stoked for the multiplayer have a very small part of the world to play with. I've seen many posts about Brits planning to wait until it drops in the USA so there are more people to play with. And I can't imagine a game with 4 character classes and randomized dungeons and daily chalanges having a poor replay value BenAV

Re: ZombiU

Phocks5

It's not great title, but I'm superstoked that it changed to a Zombie game from that killer freak garbage. It looks like a blast though.

And I think that this may have been the zombie game that the guy talking to the "non-specific super hero figurine" in the pre E3 announcement video was stuck on.

Re: Marvel Avengers: Battle for Earth

Phocks5

No way. I've seen the movie. I want something new. Besides, this obviously has like ALL of Marvel in it, not just the Avengers. I really hope they are all playable though. That'd be sad if you were stuck with 5 characters and were forced to fight with/against Venom, Wolverene, Spiderman, Magneto, Storm.....

Re: Nyko Tries to Make Circle Pad Pro Pretty

Phocks5

This is EXACTLY what I've been waiting for when the circle pad pro came out in the first place. I knew Nyko would do something like this and I was just waiting for it. Mostally because I couldn't bear to part with my current Nyko battery extender in order to have the circle pad pro instead.

Re: E3 2012: Wii U Pro Controller Offers More Options

Phocks5

It looks great but i suddenly miss Nintendo's groundbreaking and revolutionary devices. This is almost an exact copy of the Xbox controller. A very nice controller mind you, but it's been done. I'll be sticking to my Wii U tablet controller thank you.

Re: E3 2012: Meet The Wii U GamePad

Phocks5

Sounds like the latest Spyro game bought some inspiration to the producers of the Wii U. How many more figurines am I going to have to start investing in now? It's totally cool and fun, but aren't the games alone expensive enough these days without having to buy interactive figures too?
