@OorWullie I had a similar problem, I had my analog replaced at a mom and pop game shop. Cost me like 40 Canadian dollars. I would suggest looking local before you send to Nintendo.
Also, blasting the analogs with compressed air could work. Could just be dirt bits making a bad connection!
@rjejr I never championed my opinion, I said you are using something to try and prove your point that does the exact opposite. One of the worst examples of voice acting in video game history.
That is like me trying to convince you reading is still fun by quoting Twilight.
@rjejr I also think it's funny you bring up Star Fox Adventures as a game that wouldn't be the same without voice acting in the same forum you claim a distaste for made up video game languages making you angry.
Literally the opening cut scene of Star Fox Adventures has characters speaking a made up language. haha. Like 30 seconds in.
Instead of saying that a series needs to be brought into the modern era, why don't you say that YOU want the game to be a certain way to make YOU happy. Because you obviously decide on a game by game basis what and what not to like.
Don't hide your opinions behind claims that the industry should be at a certain point by now and anything not up to snuff is a step behind.
I agree with you on Kid Icarus for 3DS, they did a fantastic job with voice acting, but that was a rail shooter and needed you to be paying attention to the action 100%. Comparing that game to Zelda is like comparing Uncharted to Zelda. They are different, and do not demand the exact same standards to be a beautiful and engrossing package.
I started with Blue, and forced my sister to get Red so I could complete my dex haha. Took a break after g/s and started again at x and y. Looking forward to the new releases, and have already logged a few hours into Yellow this morning.
I may invest jusynto try it out. I collect a lot of retro gaming stuff, and finding an N64 controller without anaolog wear is pretty tough. Thay being said, when you do find one, wear is inevitable. I am looking for a more long term solution! The Hori pad or whatever seems like the best bet, but they cost a fortune!
I cant help but wonder what concerts in the future are going to be like. When we can make something that eventually looks 100% real, anything will be possible.
That is how Mayweather fights. It is not entertaining, but it gets him the win. All eyes were on boxing for the first time in what seems like forever, and it is really too bad that it wasn't an entertaining bout. As a fan I was so happy to see people care about boxing again, even if it was the last time.
I know it must be tricky to licence games, especially when ownership of them have moved from one company to another, or to their competitor like Rare. But I don't understand why staples like the Final Fantasy series have not been released outside of Japan. It's free money for Square, and Nintendo.
@rdrunner1178 Man, it is a real shame they let Rare slip away. For both companies. That virtual console list you bring up makes me drool. Would love Jet Force Gemini, Goldeneye, or Perfect Dark to get the same treatment Ocarina and Majoras got for the 3DS. A guy can dream I guess.
@arronishere It brought a lot of little things. Basically Goldeneye 2 though. I don't think I have ever had as much fun with a fps since Perfect Dark. There was even a planned mode to scan your own face into the game, but Nintendo decided against people running around shooting people they know in real life haha.
I was going to buy Rebirth on PC, but now I will wait for Wii U. The Binding of Isaac is a loving homage to the early The Legend of Zelda top down dungeons so it is fitting this game finally ends up on a Nintendo console. Yes!
@Kaze_Memaryu Are movies bad when they have nudity too? haha. Let people enjoy what they enjoy. It's a little gory, but that is half the fun. Glad to see Nintendo letting something like this onto their systems. Have it on Steam, but will scoop it up on Wii U for certain.
@SpriteMaster If you are a huge fan of the series, then you owe it to yourself to track down a copy of this game. It's fantastic.
I would be down for a 3D remake of this game or the first in the series from the N64. I was disappointed when Sticker Star dropped the true RPG elements that made the first two games fun!
@BLPs Just because you hate to lose doesn't mean online games are not fun.
It is a shame there is no classic mode. Being a fan from all the way back from the original, (I have the stigmata scars to prove it) classic mode is the reason the game is fun.
Being ushered around in a car with no choices or interesting maps really sucks the life out of Mario Party. This would have been a guaranteed purchase for me.

Re: E3 2016: Reggie Says VR "Needs to be Mainstream" For Nintendo To Get Involved
@retro_player_22 Oh, so you just want X-Men technology to be real. Got it. haha. If you havn't tried the head set, at least give it a whirl.
I get what you are saying, and hopefully we get to that point some day. I'm sure we all want a holodeck in our house.
Re: E3 2016: Reggie Says VR "Needs to be Mainstream" For Nintendo To Get Involved
@retro_player_22 The Vive is completely capable of doing everything in that video haha
Re: E3 2016: Reggie Says VR "Needs to be Mainstream" For Nintendo To Get Involved
@AVahne Yeah, the mobile vr does even compare to the real head sets. Please don't believe that is VR people. haha
The Vive gave me legitimate "wow" moments, which I haven't had with a piece of technology in a long time.
Re: E3 2016: Reggie Says VR "Needs to be Mainstream" For Nintendo To Get Involved
I enjoyed my time with the Vive. The lab demo is quite amazing. It is a really good showcase of what VR can do.
I want Nintendo VR, but I understand where they are coming from.

Re: SNES Games Finally Arriving on the New Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console
They should offer at an extreme discount if you already own. I can't buy Mario World again. I just can't.
Re: Video: Catch Plenty of Pokkén Tournament Footage in the First Nintendo Countdown Clash
This game went from my not interested list into my very interested list in a matter of a couple days. haha

@rjejr Well what you are sick of, and what the rest of us like are two different things. Thankfully.

@SmithJurd Well said. This game looks like a lot of fun. No kids allowed, because we are responsible, sensible human beings.

I must say 200CC online is chaotic and tons o fun
Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2 Available to Download Right Now
@rjejr Haha fair enough. I am awful at motion controls. Maybe I will give it a try
Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2 Available to Download Right Now
@rjejr Why no 150 CC? That is literally the only fun CC so far.
Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2 Available to Download Right Now
Been waiting for 200 CC for what seems like a life time! haha. Finally triple starred all of the mirror cups last night in preparation!

Re: 3DS Homebrew App Turns 3DS Into PC Remote Desktop, and Naturally Plays World of Warcraft

Re: Talking Point: The Legend of Zelda on Wii U May Benefit From a Delay, But It Leaves a Blockbuster-Sized Gap

On a side note, when did these forums become so angry? Seems like every topic ends in a bickering match.

Re: Chrono Trigger Turns 20, but is Ultimately Timeless
One of the best games ever made. Pick up the DS version if you can't snag an SNES copy. Well worth it.
Re: Kickstarter Project Aims to Fund a Vinyl Album Release of the Mother Soundtrack
@OneBagTravel Being very technical here, but anytime you hear music through a speaker or headphones it is being converted to analog.
Not sure if this would really be top notch sound unless they have some sort of master tapes. haha
Re: Review: Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars (Wii U eShop)
