Re: Mario Pinball Land

To be honest, I enjoyed this game.

What I didn't enjoy was the fact that your only saved file was ALWAYS suspend data, never a permanent file.

Let me tell you, working all the way to the final boss and having your nephew load the only save file and then turning it off isn't exactly a happy experience.

I liked Twilight Princess a lot, and to call it a OoT clone is as ignorant as calling Nintendo "kiddy".

However, there was a certain magic that was lost with Twilight Princess compared to the other 3D Zeldas such as OoT and WW.

Even so, it's not a bad game at all, and hate with Twilight Princess is just from being a snob. Same thing goes for Other M.

Re: Remembering the Super Game Boy

Teh-Ray

I myself used the Super Game Boy a lot when I was a kid, my brother would even draw on the screen while I played, and we'd switch off. It was so fun to play like that!

It's sad that these kinds of features weren't available for eShop Virtual Console titles. If Nintendo remembers this thing, it'd be nice to see it in some sort of update.

Re: Review: Tetris Axis (3DS)

Teh-Ray

You know, after how cool it was to have Tetris DS Nintendo themed, you'd think other companies would follow suit.

Come on, now, how cool would it have been to actually have some sort of Bomberman mode?

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who thinks Tetris DS is the best version due to its Nintendo theme.

That said, if this is available for really cheap, I'll get it.

Re: Interview: Collecting Smiles - Colors! 3D

Man, if layers are really there, I'll buy it in a heartbeat. I always hated how the original didn't use layers, but from what I read off the interview, it only said that layers will be used for depth so that you can paint things in different perspectives. I'm hoping this means layers can be used for things like coloring under lineart on the same "depth", because it really helps as a cartoonist to have something like that.

Also, what's with these people saying "Wi-Fi" when they're only talking about local wireless? It's extremely misleading. Oh well, at least I'll always have openCanvas 1.1 for my online drawing needs.

Can't wait to see more on this, though. I'm actually a bit excited.

Re: Panoramic Super Mario 3D Land Artwork is Awesome

Teh-Ray

Like I said on the forum topic, there's also the option that there is a statue ability that works like Kirby's stone ability on Kirby Super Star: He can transform, but he can randomly transform into other things as well.

I can see that happening with Mario's statue, randomly transforming into Luigi.

Re: Officially Licensed 3DS Headset Revealed, Priced and Dated

Teh-Ray

Man, these look great!

If only they had the power to make the 3DS louder, they'd be perfect. As it is, the 3DS is useless as an MP3 player because the max volume isn't even that loud, and is pretty much volumeless unless you're in a room that's really quiet.

If these headphones can pull off that feat, consider me sold. Heck, I want them now anyway!
(Here's hoping that in-line remote works on an iPod Touch as well!)

Re: We Have 74 New Screenshots of Super Mario 3D Land

Teh-Ray

Man, all this stuff warioswoods is saying about the bottom screen makes me think about how cool it'd be to be sent to the bottom screen at some portions of the game to play as a 2D sprite in a 2D world. A mini side scrolling Mario in the veins of the NES Super Mario Games.

I think it would be awesome.

Re: Nintendo Japan Unveils Ice White 3DS Console

Teh-Ray

Nintendo, why do you do this to us?

With all these colors, it makes me wonder if it would've been better to go the route of the Game Boy Micro: face plates. Maybe more like actual skins too.

As an early adopter these new colors are making me feel a little more and more screwed, but that's life. Don't get me wrong, I love my 3DS to death, but it really makes me wonder why colors are so limited upon launch, especially with all the flavors at E3.

Oh well, enough complaining, good on those who like white. Also, @Koops3, I lol'd.

Re: Feature: Nintendo 64 Let-Downs, Head Scratchers and Conundrums

Teh-Ray

I too loved the N64 controller, but.....all of my controllers are way worn down from long, hard plays of Super Smash Bros. My Gamecube controllers didn't fare well against the might of Melee, either.

Thank god the Classic Controller's sticks are fine, even after all the Brawling I do!

Re: Analogue Stick Add-On for 3DS Revealed

Teh-Ray

@198 iPruch

Probably the best way to sum it up, honestly. I feel Ocarina of Time was a pretty good example on how to make a working camera in a third person adventure game without a second stick. If only more companies took notice of this.

Re: Marvel at Kirby Mass Attack's Minigames

Teh-Ray

Thank god they're not using that other music for this trailer. Still, it could be better.

Back on topic, though, I'm so glad to see more than just three minigames for once! They aren't all very exciting but I gotta say that Kirby Quest looks like a lot of fun.

And to think I was wondering about a Kirby RPG a couple weeks ago...

Re: NES Ambassador Games for North America Available Now

Teh-Ray

I just got done with all these downloads. It took forever to download them individually, but I finally got 'em!

I still find it hilarious that people thought these games would fill up their SD cards. I'm sure someone's going to say "But the GBA games are bigger!", but really, they're only a couple MB big anyway, and will not fill up that 2GB card that came with your system.

Now to play Super Mario Bros.!

Re: Review: Let's Create! Pottery (DSiWare)

Teh-Ray

Was it really any surprise?

If anything, I'm more surprised to see people actually enjoyed it. Oh well, I guess it really is "different strokes for different folks", which I will gladly respect.

I assume it got a 4/10 because it at least did something that it promised: Making pottery.

Re: These Are The 10 NES Ambassador Games in Japan

Teh-Ray

No Super Mario Bros. 3?

Does this mean...

...there's a chance...

...that it'd be a 3D Classic??

If that is true, I will die a happy man forever. Seriously!

Sorry for typing like that, I was just overwhelmed at the possibility.

( Though I guess if it means that Super Mario Advance 4 really is coming as a GBA game to download, that'd be fine, too. )

Re: Tetris: Axis Swings By 3DS on 2nd October

Teh-Ray

Ah, great, looks like I'm not the only one who wants that awesome Nintendo retro theme with their Tetris fix. That was what sold Tetris DS to me. Oh, and the wealth of interesting game modes. Hopefully this one's to the same caliber!

Re: NightSky Coming to 3DS eShop

Teh-Ray

Hm...I'll have to keep an eye on this. Physics-based gameplay was never my favorite kind of thing ( Especially in platformers ), but hopefully this'll be something for me to enjoy whenever it comes out.
