Re: Rumour: More Claims Made For New Legend of Zelda on Wii U and NX, Gender Choice For Playable Character

Smokingspoon

@BensonUii Don't worry, I'm not getting you wrong either. It's just this topic which is about to explode I think.

But in another game/book/movie with a hero being more developed and alive I would agree (Kinda. A warrior is a warrior still), but what I mostly meant is how Link has never shown a personality. So, why add more now that the hero can be both gender.

But tbh, I don't think I'd want a female hero with Nin because they suck at it. Samus is my childhood hero, now she's wearing latex, high heels and a whip lol.

Re: Rumour: More Claims Made For New Legend of Zelda on Wii U and NX, Gender Choice For Playable Character

@BensonUii And why couldn't the story be written just as usual regardless of gender? Link has never been written as a big straight macho (he's actually pretty neutral in every way except good/evil) nor should a girl link be all about butterflies, rose and extroverted emotions. Imo it's pure bs that gender should add any difference to an adventurer such as Link. Except for the little 'she' and 'he' replaced here and there in the script

Beside... Link has NEVER shown any typical male behaviors beside blushing to a big cleavaged-lady. Unless you consider the cartoon in which he clearly wants to sleep with Zelda.

Re: Star Fox Zero's Stage Names Are Another Delicious Throwback

Smokingspoon

I saw that some days ago. It's ridiculously puny... That delay they had was probably for Guard, mostly.

From those 11 stages (likely an hidden 12th ala Out of this Dimension) 6 will play with the Arwing/Walker, 2 for the tank and 2 for the gyrowing. Some stage offer you to choose between 2 vehicles, so it's highly likely that Venom will be letting you choose between any of the vehicles. The hidden paths which were mentioned, are only paths, not stages; A shuffle in the playlist.

I was sure to buy it.. but after seeing this, I'm fairly sure Star Fox Zero will only be a nice rental.

Re: Rumour: New Nintendo NX Controller Images Surface and Set the Web Alight

But also, if these were real leaks, the person doing it would be pretty dumb or careless, considering the professional suicide you'd be doing here. If I were a colleague to that person there I'd probably recognize the table, that window, the tree, the samsung tv..
Of course, all offices looks like that, but not many would be having a 'nx' lying around.

That little 'Confidential Property' sticker is so funny.
It's like finding a cheesy portfolio with a big 'Top Secret' on it with UFO pictures in it.

Although this might not be the NX, it could be a prototype for something else. Nintendo must have lots of prototypes we'll never know about. But it's likely just a prank.. Maybe from Nin themselves, to confuse their rivals, who knows.

Re: Star Fox Zero Will Include An Invincible Mode For Inexperienced Players

Smokingspoon

I really, really REALLY hope they used the full power of the gamepad's gyro, like Samus's gunship in NintendoLand. Motion+ level, like splatoon(requiring a reset button) is not acceptable to me.

I can understand people who don't want to hold the gp in the air, just having it laying comfortably on their lap (Needing a reset button), but then what was the point of the gamepad's advance gyroscopic sensors?? sigh

Re: Star Fox Zero Launching April 22nd on Wii U

@aaronsullivan I have to rant a bit about those gamepad uses though.. Obviously I haven't played it yet, but it just doesn't seem very up to the potential of what two screen can offer.
I though Nintendoland offered interesting stuff we've never seen more developed. ZombiU's multiplayer mode had a really interesting and fun use of it.

I hope ZeldaU will not just be a map system.. Because I've never been keen on too precise and overpowered maps/minimaps that feels like cheats, keeping my eyes off the adventure and exploring.

The homage to the original starfox with that Fortuna stage makes me really happy and excited. Guard looks fun, but it's inclusion worries me. Will SF:Zero be a very skinny game?

What about that Project Giant Robot? I was more interested in that one ^o^

Re: Metroid Prime: Federation Force is Coming Sooner Than Expected

Smokingspoon

I'm a huge metroid fan and I must say I'm still interested in that game. It's not what we want for sure, but I'm not being desperate either. I just think this game could bring really interesting aspects to the metroidverse.

My main complaint is putting the name Metroid in the title.. Galactic Federation Force would have sparkled less flames I think. Less media attention though (Ahh..Money...).

Re: Review: Front Mission (SNES)

Smokingspoon

Ahh... SquareSoft, do I miss you. I didn't realized that there was also a regular Front Mission on the snes.

I'm a big nerd for Yoshitaka Amano, I'd probably buy anything with his art involved.
