Re: Assassin's Creed III is Coming to Wii U

TheBaconator

I used to be a fan of the series, but all of the spin-offs that were practically identical, and the really dumb story turned me away from the series. I do like the setting for this one though, and I'm sure it's going to be one of the better Wii U titles near launch, (if near launch) so I'll check it out.

Re: Nintendo Rejects The Binding of Isaac

Well that isn't surprising. The eShop doesn't have a system for determining the age of buyers other than the buyer giving their age. (Which is always a lie to make things quicker) If Nintendo did let a game like this slide, they'd get tons of negative coverage from the media. Remember, some people believe that Pokemon are satanic demons that promote evolution and bash religion even though there's no signs of that anywhere in the game. So imagine what the press would do if Nintendo allowed a game that is a twisted, gruesome take on a biblical story on a kid-friendly handheld. It would seriously hurt Nintendo's reputation.

Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life Reader Awards 2011

TheBaconator

Didn't vote for any of the winners (except Four Swords), which was expected because I didn't vote for the obvious favorites Zelda, Pushmo, or 3D Land in their respected categories. Guess I have different taste. (And there was no way Ghost Trick was going to win Game of the Year, but I'm surprised that it wasn't a runner up in the DS category and Rayman wasn't a runner up in the Wii category.)

Re: Talking Point: The GBA Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console

TheBaconator

I'm thinking they'll put up:
Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green or Pokemon Pinball R/S
Minish Cap
Wario Land 4
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
It would be neat though if they also put up some GBA games that required tilt controls such as Yoshi Topsy-Turvy and Warioware Twisted. Some imports wouldn't hurt either, such as Rhythm Tengoku.

Re: Review: Captain America: Super Soldier (Wii)

Yeah, but the main difference if that those characters are resistant to forms of gunfire and explosions when they have their powers. Hulk is also incredibly strong, can destroy practically anything, lift anything, and jump extremely long distances. Iron Man has access to missiles, flight, super strength, and gun fire on his suit. And Thor can shoot thunder, fly, smash anything with his hammer, and is a God. All Captain America is, is a Man in top physical condition with a shield. Thus, if he stopped exercising and ate poorly he'd get out of shape and just like any other man on steroids and lose his "powers". (It was also a joke)

@Jango-Forest
Nothing, he was injected with essentially "Super Steroids", and that gave him super strength, athleticism, and acrobatic abilities. He also has a bullet proof shield. So in reality all someone would need to do is take away his shield to defeat him because all of his weaknesses are the same as a normal human's. Either that or they could force feed him junk food.
