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.
The "Negative" Zone is such a mild reference to drugs. He is all loopy and they play weird music and hallucinate. I mean they eat mushrooms to gain power ups right?
@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.
i had the ambassador program, so i kinda already have the gba games on my 3DS i want: minish cap, wario ware, and fire emblem. would be nice to see some others though.
make it more like melee! this sounds like a nice balance. the auto edge grab in brawl was overly strong, you were practically magnetically pulled to it. hopefully they balance it
a link between worlds could so easily shift to a free to play mobile game. But its not and its 1000% better that way.
Think about it: in game currency (rupees for real $), buy the items with real money, pay to unlock each dungeon, etc. SO GLAD nintendo doesn't do crap like that or do 20 dollar dlc
the art style for the new yoshi island game is still off in my opinion.
I've played the demo before and the watercolor texture looks incredibly mechanical and not natural like it should. they should make it look more like the ssbb yoshi island stage, that was spot on.
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.
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.
Hopefully more than just a balanced HD version of brawl. Hoping to change it up with character customization. If you are desperate to play a new smash check out project M.
this is why nintendo will always be around. They are the only company that understands that there is another genre of games, between something like COD or The last of us (a focus/fast paced cinematic game) versus a mindless time waster (candy crush). it requires less effort to have a real engaging fun experience on nintendo.
It would be really awesome to see the 3DS maintain its spot in november and december. Maybe mega blackfriday sales and link between worlds have it magically beat out ps4 and xbox one?
Honestly, the gamepad tech is pretty awesome and never gets enough praise. Its instantaneous! If they launched with smash bros 4 or had it out this year, EVERYONE I know would buy a wii u just to play it.
I for one got the WWHD bundle, so there are a TON of games I want to play!
Making toys/ figurines that you can play pretend with also work as virtual characters in video games is kinda a kid's dream come true. Plus its disney. No brainer $$$
From a psychological perspective he will never think he made a "perfect" game. Probably has something to do with him striving towards an unobtainable image of what a perfect game is. He is too much of a perfectionist.
@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.
@Goginho I played the demo at SD Comic Con. When you transform to drawing link, the dungeon switches to a 3d perspective that looks fine. I don't get the thing about it looking slanted, it looks fine in game. Also 3D looks really nice.
OMG that zelda one! I can't believe its actually gold on the inside too. So flashy! I want it! But I wonder if i transfer my 3ds ambassador games to the system, would the copy of the downloaded game be deleted?
The graphics look so uninspired.... I'm kinda disappointed. It looks like the story is really half baked and random. I generally am lukewarm about all handheld zelda games though...never quite the same as the console releases.
I love your vision for the game! It sounds like Aonuma needs to play skyrim or something. I have only seen people play it, but making a zelda game more personal is really what needs to happen. OoT is the best because of the emotional connection with all the characters and environments etc. I have high hopes, if only they hire new people with fresh ideas.
I have about 100 miis in my plaza, but it couldn't hurt to get more. It definitely is the best for animal crossing. I love being able to order people's furniture, so much easier now than having to buy it at nookling's!
