Re: Feature: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Trailer #2 Breakdown & Speculation - Everything You Missed

Williaint

The spot lights seem to be tracking... something, perhaps where the Blood moon will crash into Hyrule? Maybe Link cannot fly at night? I don't think they'd be helping Link get to the Temples/shrines. The 'Tears of the Kingdom' (Name) caused me to believe this is when Zelda sacrifices herself to the Gods to save Link. The 'Tears' look like something like some kind of flood, or maybe some pocket item that you'd use (like a bomb) on the saddened people. Is the Hyrule timeline cyclical, maybe it goes around before The Windwaker? I thought a lot of the mountains looked like the not mushroom-towers, and the NOT at sea level towers could be light towers. And can't he still speak to Ghosts; Maybe through a Guitar riff, or a Saxophone? The Hover craft, the balloon and auto-train-car all appear to be of a similar creation... Probably a Cannon lift, the Epona carriage just doesn't cut it. Maybe you only get a few homing-arrows, or maybe you can update your arrows (and equipment) at shops. It looked like the Master Sword is totally messed up, maybe you'll need to use other weapons. Bombs, spears, axes, pieces of wood? Combine milk and an arrow to make the Clouds cry. It looks like Link is surfing to a mine shaft, to secure gold or rubble to make equipment, maybe pay off the Bokoblins to help him out. Wouldn't the Yiga tribe be one of the Gerudo's main supporters (Not the monsters)?
I imagine that there's a lot of Working to make things Work.
Maybe staying a cryogenic slumber causes Link's powers to falter. Those dragon-birds (Fly-boids?) have a Minish Cap feel. Mystery girl? I'm not going to touch that with a 10-meter Grappling-hook.
That's my five gold pieces.

Re: Best Buy Rumour Reinforces Talk of $250 Nintendo Switch Price

Williaint

My guess:
Best Buy saw the price, and followed whoever started the rumour.
Only 57 hours, now, until confirmation.
@Salnax
I got a brand new MacBook Pro in 2012, about 3 inches tall. By 2016, you could get the same model, but thin as a pencil, that has more power.
Bigger isn't always better.

$250 is a good price. Maybe that's just a "standard edition", or something.

Re: Feature: Ten Ideal Launch Year Nintendo NX Games

Williaint

SUPER MARIO MAKER NX?
No. WAY, WAY too early for a sequel. The first one was released last fall, it's too soon, and I wouldn't want to see it turn into an EA annually released sports title I'm sure plenty of more features and characters could be added, but still...
Splatoon (Spla2oon? I'd pronounce it Spla-two-oon) deserves a sequel, but maybe not at launch, either.
Smash Bros: Definitive edition... I suppose it'd be worth a purchase, if it included aspects of EVERY OTHER SMASH BROS. Game alive (And of course, Goku hahaha...).
Mario Kart. I'm fine with 8, right now. I could imagine one, in the future, just not at launch. I'd sooner see a new F-Zero.

There hasn't been a decent Mario Party game since 2. I did not enjoy Nintendo land, the only reason to have "Mii" games is to remind people that "Mii's" still exist. I believe NX could avoid using them.

I've never been a fan of Pikmin. The original animal crossing was a good game. I've played New leaf, but I found it boring, and it gave me less of a reason to continue playing it.

I feel I'm repeating myself, again... but I'd rather see a new 2D Metroid game, than another Prime; a game where Samus is getting trained from the Chozo.

"Art academy online". That sounds a lot like a mobile game.

A 3D Mario game could easily sell the NX, probably more than Wii U has right now, on launch day.

A Pokemon game in the vein of Xenoblade or Monster Hunter, could also be an attractive launch point, for the console. I have, and almost everyone else, have wanted it for years! Waiting a couple more wouldn't be a huge disappointment.

Re: Poll: Which Nintendo NX Games Do You Want to See in the Launch Window?

Williaint

-Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I guess this is a given, but it should be a good launch game!

-Pokemon: the 3D console game
Not another Stadium, or Safari game. Would be a good thing to bet on if not on launch, the not unforeseeable future.

-Mario 3D game:
I'm a huge fan/supporter of 2D Mario games, but I'd like to see another 3D Super Mario game would be the perfect game to Launch, on the NX.

-2D Metroid game
The 2D Metroid games are still better than Prime. I would love to see a game where Samus is training with the Chozo. I've been saying that for years.

-F-zero NX (Has a nice ring to it, don't it?)
Some of the best music, in any game. Fast, difficult, and a great demonstration of the NX prowess.

-I think a second Splatoon game and Mario Maker game are great ideas, just not as launch titles

UNMENTIONED:
Wario and Waluigi deserve a full game, not a wario ware game. I am a huge fan of Wario, and an even bigger fan of Waluigi.
Over the years, "Wario" has got quite a collection of characters in his series. The game I imagine would play similar to Knuckle's Chaotix , different characters have different abilities.

I would love to see a new Advance Wars game! I'd give up the rest of the games, for the next year, for a new one of these! (I just hope it doesn't look like battle tanx)

Re: Third Party Developers Share Their Hopes For Nintendo NX

Williaint

@Blastcorp64
Finally, someone's making sense.
I am not looking forward to this VR fad. I sincerely hope that NX, whatever it is, does not involve VR.
If everyone's got different opinions, then how can everyone be right? Of course, my opinion will probably be discounted, because I'm blinded by my support of Nintendo (Don't forget, that's a wrong opinion)
