Re: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers Of Sky Gets Ready To Launch

I think you're talking about a kid named "Ganon", his parents weren't aware of the Zelda character yet. They used Ganon 'cause it was a cool Irish name or something.

I remember reading a story about it on this site a long, long time ago. Some Nintendo fan with a kid named Link met them and Link and Ganon played together. XD

Re: What Capcom games do you want to see on the Virtual Console?

ShaneM

NES:
Mega Man 4, 5, 6

SNES:
Mega Man 7, X, X2, X3

VCA:
Mega Man: The Power Battle, Mega Man: The Power Fighters

Genesis: Mega Man: The Wily Wars

And last but definitely not least, I decided to save this for last even though it is in fact a SNES game: Mega Man & Bass as an import title. PLEASE Capcom, PLEASE? I'll give you guys my Wii Points...

...Any amount of Wii Points for that matter.

Re: Super Mario Galaxy Shines in 720p

ShaneM

Even games as early as the N64 can be rendered at these higher resolutions. This isn't just a Wii thing.

That's (part of the) reason why N64 games look so much better on the Virtual Console. (The other half is because N64 had bad hardware to begin with,)

Re: Review: Pulseman (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)

ShaneM

Trivia: Pikachu's final smash in Brawl is actually Volteccer, and it's used the same way Pulseman uses it. Volteccer is known as Volt Tackle in the English versions of Pokémon. There's actually many references to Pulseman in the Pokémon series.

@Captain Jack Sparrow "If this was reviewed by none other than Corbie it would've gotten a 9 PERIOID!!! "

Chill out, your post is an insult to the good community that is Nintendo Life. I think it woulda been given a 7 if Corbie reviewed it.

On a more serious note, that comment makes me really want to see Corbie come in and put his input in. What would you have scored it, Corbie?

Re: Mega Man Star Force 3 - Boss Trailer

ShaneM

I've followed the Mega Man series since I was born.

Red Ace or Black Joker... Which should I choose? What are the differences? I love the other two Star Force games...

@Corbie: Start with Battle Network 1 and 2.

Re: Box Art: Metroid Prime Trilogy

ShaneM

Even as a fan of the FPS genre, I couldn't get into the first Metroid Prime when I tried it a few weeks back. I'm probably going to pass on this one and maybe get The Conduit. ^^;

Re: Sony Expects Wii Owners To Upgrade To PS3

ShaneM

"No chance will I buy a PS3. a) The Money, b) the loyalty to Nintendo. Miyamoto and Iwata would never say something like this, nor would Reggie! None of these people have ever degraded the other consoles like Sony and Microsoft are constantly doing in (failed) attempted to thwart us."

Microsoft doesn't say things like this, it's only Sony from what I've seen. In fact Microsoft told us to buy Wiis back in 2006.

Re: Introducing Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing

ShaneM

FINALLY

I've been wanting Sonic Kart since the early '90s! Add more Sega characters and it's a dream come true...

Just please, Sega, include the old Crush 40 songs from Nascar Arcade as an alternate soundtrack, okay? :]

EDIT: Upon watching the trailer...

YES, Tails in a plane reminds me of my favourite racing game, Diddy Kong Racing! I don't like the song though.

Re: Ghostwire Coming To DSiWare

ShaneM

Whoa whoa whoa. That looks cool! I was going to buy it merely because the developers knew what the Astral plane was, but the screenshot sold me.

Re: Nintendo Download: Masks, Crystals, Chess and Art (US)

ShaneM

"Well, you've finally gotten Majora's Mask! Now what's the next game people will be seeing weekly complaints about? "

liek omg weres mario cart & super smashbros 64? >>

Honestly, I hope both Super Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. come out before game #350.

Re: Modders Build Mario 64 Expansion

ShaneM

Honestly, I'm not enjoying this game very much. I'll admit however that this is a milestone in ROM hacking - when it's expanded upon we should be prepared for something great.

Re: Review: Pokémon Red and Blue (Game Boy)

ShaneM

Digiki: What about D/P was slow?

The series has always been good. Sure, G/S/C marked the peak but I wouldn't compare the new games to Sonic's new games (which actually aren't as bad as people make them out to be). The only real problem with D/P is that the monsters themselves aren't as good-looking as the first two generations.

Re: Need Some Tetris Lessons?

ShaneM

That was... Interesting. Makes me want to practice my own skills. Maybe I could set up a similar course for Tetris or another game? XD
