Re: Feature: How A Team Of Dedicated Fans Is Fixing Super Smash Bros. Brawl

This mod is really fun and enjoyable for people who like to play competitively. The game is really satisfying, mainly because the increased ability to spike/meteor mash with most characters, as well as tighter combos and more juggling ability. It is much more fast paced than brawl and generally more exciting. I still like brawl but once you go back to it you realize the floatiness is hindering among other things.

@Yorumi
So true. The game really doesn't actually have that much to do. Its mainly about collecting things because thats all there is to do. Thats why its suited to short play sessions every day, because it allows you to do the same crap over and over again. However, I still enjoy it immensely, but my town never actually feels alive.

All the games seem like a sandbox filled with not enough toys IMO

Does anyone think there is a possibility of another hardware version of the 3DS coming out? Like the 3DS Slim?

I have my day 1 3DS and haven't upgraded to an XL cuz I'm hoping they release a more portable version. Its just a little bit too fat to carry around all the time!

Or a special edition Smash Bros. XL...I would definitely get that.

Re: Tech Site The Verge Thinks The Wii U's Failure Won't Change Nintendo

The wii u isn't a "bad" idea. Look at the ps4 and xbox one, games like assassins creed try to add a second screen experience, either through your tablet or ps vita, they obviously see at least some potential in the wii u tablet idea.

Maybe they should have had it interact with the 3DS instead of the game pad. I see their next console being a handheld/home console hybrid. Considering most things are going towards mobile.

Re: NPD Results Deliver a 3DS Milestone And Modest Wii U Sales

I think the nintendo execs (in NA) should spend less time embarrassing themselves on nintendo directs and spend more time doing their jobs! Seriously they seem so casual on nintendo direct when they are actually in a huge crisis when it comes to wii u. Reggie is hilarious as a meme but only to nintendo fans. Have you seen their instagram? Its terrible. They try to be funny buts its more cringe worthy than anything. The wii u can't become "cool" or "desirable" tech if half the promotional stuff online has middle school level humor. I don't see the Xbox one or PS4 execs embarrassing themselves, except for those occasional twitter slip ups.

@Kirk It does look dated! Nobody else seems to see that.

What I liked about the first game was that the low amount of pixels served as an artistic strength to the game. Every single pixel and color was so well done and perfect looking. I loved the way everything, from the circular trees to the way the statues looked, to the way the cliffs and water was done. You could tell they had a vision and translated it to the medium (SNES). This has nice colors as well, but its not 8 bit so it can't be retro.

Missed opportunity.
