So...outsource it to Wayforward? I mean this is obvious that 3D games take less time to animate than 2D games but really it feels lifeless a lot of the times and takes away the feel of the 2D game entirely.
I always finished games. There are only few exceptions that I couldn't finish them and that's because of either I got bored of it or that I can't beat it due to its terrible difficulty(Super Meat Boy)
Other than that, I've always have the habit of atleast beating the main game and extra content is only something I do for platformers in general. However, Ni No Kuni is one of the exceptions where I want to do all the Errands due to it being very satisfying.
Nah.....it would never have worked out. Nintendo works with the idea of innovation so letting Microsoft doing hardware and Nintendo doing software wouldn't work out in the long run.
@NintendoFan64 His name is Sonic and you know that right?
Oh boy......how can I say this in the positive way without trolling?
Sonic.....as far as legends go, you once were that legend and came to the same levels as Mario. You were responsible to bring Sega into the big name it is now. Had you not existed, SEGA would have given up on Console gaming as soon as the Mega Drive showed up.
But you can be that legend now because people still have hope in you....I have hope in you simply because you provide platforming variety more than Mario.
As much as I love Mario, I will love you as well. I'll admit that I hated you at one point but that's only because of how brainwashed I was thinking that people hated Mario and preferred Sonic instead.
Your recent outings and the handheld games are awesome and you can still be awesome if SEGA realizes that you have to be better treated.
If you go, I'll be sad because I know Mario won't give me the stuff that you always give Sonic. That's what's you're so good at..... Its already sad enough that we lost Mega Man and other cool mascots out there.
That said, Happy B day Blue Blur. Hope the best out of you.
@amishpyrate I don't get how its difficult to port Skies of Arcadia on 3DS really...seeing as how the game is based on Dreamcast Graphics which the 3DS can easily emulate...if not atleast for the new 3DS.
@LUIGITORNADO You said the game shouldn't exist, is that an opinion or a fact?
If its an opinion my apologies for not noticing that, but if its a fact, then that's where I'll say you're wrong in that as there are people who want to play the game.
The article is lousy and simply defends kickstarters simply because of games that are somehow considered classics.
First of all, Kickstarter isn't a safe place to get projects or to get money simply because the project itself has to be worth giving money.
Half Genie Hero failed to reach the Kickstarter goals simply because its not the Shantae we know of but rather, its a new Shantae that we have to get used to. Yet despite that failure, Wayforward decided to continue the development of the game because they have faith in it......um, are they dumb here?
Why the hell would they want money from consumers who didn't like what they saw and yet still decided to make the game whatsoever? I love Pirates Curse but then again, Wayforward isn't known for a lot of games outside of Shantae.
Second of all, Kickstarter games will only work if the ones making a project have some history behind them or if they are well experienced into the game industry.
There's a reason why many indie devs tend to rather use their own budget instead of praying to the people who have to be stupid enough to see the spark of the projects that they like to give money on.
The way that Koji Igarashi just made a movie out of himself and slapping pieces of paper art as a way to show the project. Yet somehow, there's no footage of the game, people had no idea what the hell they're investing money on but they did it anyway because of Igarashi-San's presence and finally, that the game wasn't even starting development.
How the hell can you do pitch a project if what you've shown is not even a project to begin with?!?!?
And lastly, no matter how you put it, its a niche market like TRPG games. It only serves for specific targets and only for specific targets. If you can't please those targets, then what's the point of even having those projects in the first place?
All the successful games that have been kickstarted so far are the ones that were aimed at a specific audience and nothing else. It doesn't matter how much money is made out of kickstarter, in the end, it comes to reaching expectations to those targets. That's that.
Kickstarter can never work on wider audiences just it just isn't meant to.
Its for these reasons that I'm against kickstarter. Sure, you get games out of it but at what cost? Would you flush out 1,000$ just to get a game poster along with the game?!?!?
Now you see the problem with kickstarter games? Things like this will happen.
Now just imagine all that money given to games like Shenmue 3 and Yokalalee only that it ends up being like this one. Oh and let's not forget Bloodstained a game that people think its gonna be a blast.
I still don't know why Nintendo wants to force third parties to making games on their systems. Really, majority of them are nowhere on top of the quality of the games that Nintendo themselves make.
@Anti-Matter They will most likely give the gamepad being sold separately like how they released the gamecube controller separately to play Smash on Wii U.

Re: New 4K Switch Model Could Launch For $399, Analysts Suggest
Bogus until Nintendo confirms it. Too expensive for the userbase and families and too unrealistic for Nintendo's preferences.

Re: Talking Point: Is Zelda An RPG, Or Not?
@Grandiajet That is a sheer fact. I had a hard time talking with the forums section that BOTW is NOT RPG.
Seriously, who thinks that Zelda is RPG?

Re: Nintendo Reportedly Gearing Up For Record Switch Sales This Year
Nintendo seriously needs to have some Cease and Desist from rumored sources trying to leak information that is confidental.
At this rate, its just a rumor.

Re: Rumour: Nvidia Is Stopping Production Of Switch's Most Important Hardware This Year
@TSR3 Ok..so they can just not end it? Or best to substitute the chip that doesn't do much?
Re: Rumour: Nvidia Is Stopping Production Of Switch's Most Important Hardware This Year
@Wargoose Design wise it was impossible. Not technically.
Anyways, this is probably the older mariko chipset that the rumors are talking about. Not the revised one which is still in production.
Re: Nintendo Will Stop Repairing Original 3DS and 3DS XL Consoles Next Month Due To Parts Shortage

Re: Anniversary: Can You Believe It? The Nintendo 3DS Is Now 10 Years Old
If only the games were as ambitious as the DS, we'd have another gem.
As it is, its just a handheld that has great games but just lacks a bit in the innovation.

A Landstalker....A Mario RPG....A Metroid...A Sequel.....too hard to choose....how about.....EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Sega Placing "Huge Emphasis On Quality" With Future Sonic Titles
@Kirk I don't get why they want to delay a sequel if the original itself was poor to begin with.
I'd rather they cancel it and use more resources for the new game instead.
Re: Head of Sonic Team Explains Why Dr. Robotnik Started Going by "Eggman"
I like Robotnik better than Eggman simply because it tells what his specialty is unlike Eggman.

Re: Monster Hunter Generations x Strider Collaboration Confirmed
@DarthNocturnal I've beaten it and I still have it on steam. Its the first strider game I've played which is why I'm asking for another one.
Re: Monster Hunter Generations x Strider Collaboration Confirmed
@DarthNocturnal That game has problems running and its not like the PSOne one now is it?
Re: Monster Hunter Generations x Strider Collaboration Confirmed
You know what's better than DLC characters Capcom? A new Strider game for the 3DS.
Seriously, why the hell we can't get a new Strider game already?

@LUIGITORNADO Its people like you is the reason why the industry in general is so damn rotten in the first place.
From the looks of it, it really isn't a bad game and you're already ranting that the game is bad because the visuals aren't that good.
I hate those who are hating the game for its looks but not for what it actually is.

Of course its gonna have backwards compatability. Even if it doesn't have it, the Eshop will most likely be there for the NX.
