Re: Video: Here's The Cheapest Way To Play Pokémon GO

@rjejr my brother got the Blu r1 HD for Pokemon. He needed a new phone anyway and didn't want to spend a lot. For $60 it's a great phone. And if the adds bug you it's $110, only $10 more than the one in this article and it's faster, running Android 6, and has a gyroscope.

Re: Video: Check Out the Impressive Astalos in Monster Hunter Generations

@JaxonH Maybe he played with the 3d off? 4U was one of the games that actually looked better with it on. Why I tell people to at least have it on the lowest setting, that way you still get that bump without actually have much of a 3d effect.

As for Generations, it's framerate has been locked at 30fps so they could push better visuals.

Re: ​The Servers for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex Are Down

@BornInNorway81 no offense to it was awesome, but a better example would be Red Steel 2. Motion plus mad aiming even better. And the best way to prove how Wii remotes were more accurate was resident evil 4. I was unstoppable on the Wii version. It really shines when you don't have the crutch of auto aim turned on for twinsticks

Re: Monster Hunter Set To Overtake Street Fighter In Lifetime Sales This Year

@VanillaLake I checked your source, it lumps all sales together. That's physical, digital, AND PC. Vgchartz will have a delay, but not that much. It suggest that there are somewhere around 700,000 physical units, the rest are digital.

Again, we don't have digital sales figures for Pokken. The main point I was making was that recently at some point it has outsold SFV. That's what everyone was talking about. Also, SFV had a month head start.

Re: Retail Executives and Analysts Voice Support For Nintendo's NX Release Window and Lack of E3 Showing

@Danrenfroe2016 It seems that everyone forgot that the Nintendo WiFi Network wasn't shut down by Nintendo. History lesson: when the Wii launched, Nintendo didn't know how to run a full blown online service, so they went with a third party, GameSpy. GameSpy went under and anything that used it (that included many Xbox and PlayStation games) ceased to work. At that point companies had two choices: by and maintain servers for old games, or just let them die. It wasn't financially feasible for Nintendo to dedicate so many resources for Wii/DS games. Not to mention Nintendo's self-hosted online network was nowhere near ready for that kind of load at the time.

Plus, like any old great games, there are always fan serviced servers available for Wii/DS games.

@Yomerodes from what I have found, RK had no idea that they'd get the rights back this year. Back in March they were under the impression that it would never happen.

I think the fact that the PC port bombed is what lead to the publisher releasing the rights back.

Re: Digital Foundry Gives Its Take on Watch Dogs for Wii U

@kensredemption I'd swear that DF uses software that doesn't work right on Wii U hardware. I've seen a lot of game play for this game, and even in the DF video were it's supposedly running at 15 fps, it looks higher. I've played games at 15 fps on PC before, watchdogs on Wii U does not get that low.

Re: These Official Wisdom Tree T-Shirts Are So Bad, They're Great

aj_fowl

@sketchturner I played that one. My first gaming experience was on a PC. Two of the five games we had were Wisdom Tree games, but the good ones. Spiritual Warfare was my first action adventure game and my gateway into Zelda. I know, it's backwards. The other was Joshua, a challenging and surprisingly good action puzzle game.

Re: Video: Capcom Unleashes a New Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Trailer

@3dcaleb Unfortunately this is a type of game that's really difficult to make a demo for. Most people agree that the demo was made for fans of the series. It's not even close to what the game actually offers. My cousin played the demo and couldn't understand why I liked it so much. I let him borrow my card and he bought it from me two weeks later.

Re: Retro City Rampage DX is "Doing Great" on 3DS

aj_fowl

@Gen0neD On Miiverse he gave reasons why he didn't include it. He'd have to redue a lot of the game code to include 3D, plus it apparently didn't look that impressive being a 2D top down game. People have suggested that he add it to the minigames though. He might do that since the checkpoints and garages where requested on Miiverse.

Re: Review: Retro City Rampage: DX (3DS eShop)

@unrandomsam I haven't missed the twin stick shooting. The auto-aim is quite good and feels rights for this game. If you hold down the L button your character fires in whatever direction you point the circle pad or d-pad in. I don't find myself using it much.
