There's that old saying about counting chickens, that applies here. Don't assume that a Zelda film will sell just because it's Zelda. See if your movie will be successful before planning sequels por favor.
Each direct is going to be "good" or "bad" to different people, dependent on how much of it is advertising something they wanted to see. If we're being honest.
And this is why the NSO is doo-doo compared to the eshop and virtual console. I don't care about this particular game, but its the fact that you can't keep what you pay for.
No skin off my back. The only entertainment that game had to offer, was photographing pokemon in weird places. Once an ekans was in my lo mein. The main game was boring
No probably not. I tried the ASG3 demo, and did not like how the new character handled. I also own the Striker pack. Also, Inti still insists on blocking the screen with large text boxes.
Spielberg or Lucas in their heydays would have made a fantastic movie. I mean, these are the guys who made great adventures like The Goonies, Willow, Star Wars, and Indiana Jones. The sets and thrills would be spectacular.
If this was being asked after the adaptation of Mario Bros. I don't blame any of them for saying no. Once bitten, twice shy and all that.
Lol what a fun little inside look at those silly old commercials. I always kinda liked the Zelda rap. These commercials are certainly memorable, if nothing else.
Hopefully they are able to deal swift legal justice. It's one thing to be deeply inspired or make a parody, and some concepts are too simple and broad that its hard not to copy, such as older racing games. This is theft.
@Jack_Goetz Except Disney doesn't own MM, and it did things that Disney would not want to be associated with. They bought and then disbanded Lucas arts gaming. So sadly, we'll likely never see ports of their comp games. Besides, Disney is one to talk about stealing.
Also, this is a spiritual successor and those are totally allowed.
Ideally I'd love for it to come on both systems, because I looove Okami and can't afford a new console every generation. Realistically it may not be possible.
Yeah, that ship sailed many years and several systems ago Kamiya. Besides, if not for the Wii, I'd never have been able to fall in love with that game. It's so nice, we own it twice! Wii and Switch.

Re: 'Azure Striker Gunvolt Trilogy Enhanced' Announced For Switch

Re: 20 Years After Its Demise, Publisher 'Acclaim' Is Being Resurrected
Couldn't a better company have resurrected itself? Akklaim isn't terrible exactly, but it's not great. It's just okay filler for the most part.

It was what I expected. I was pleasantly surprised by the announcement of new pokemon concierge episodes. Wasn't expecting Champions either.
Re: Pokémon Centre UK Releases Gorgeous New 'Loungefly' Backpack Range

Re: "They Stole The Whole Game" - Horror Indie Dev Fights The eShop Scam Blatantly Ripping Their Work
How is it nintendo's fault? Each company can only protect their own games. Not everyone else's.

@DdG1408 I agree. This is the most blatant rip-off I've seen since the Transylvania Adventure of Simon Quest. Lol.

Re: Random: Hideki Kamiya Would Rather You Not Play Okami On The Wii
@sdelfin mostly its fine, it's only on the blooming games and digging mini games that it can get iffy.

A new 2d title would make me happy.
Re: Poll: Is It Finally Time For Castlevania To Rise Again?
