Re: UK Press Pins Blame For Sandy Hook Massacre On Video Games

@jellitoe numerous studies have said that there is no correlation between real life violence and violent video games. if there was a direct connection we would be seeing a whole lot more violence. video games are an entertainment medium in its relative infancy, so it will be the blame of every form of debauchery and act of violence. just like movies and books took the blame before.

Re: Halting Wii U System Update May Brick the System

mattatron

Nintendo bricked my console. While it seems most of these bricks are caused by end users, I saw at least 10 people on nintendo's tech forums with this problem right out of the box as I did. So Nintendo is not completely blame free on this issue, I am personally upset as I just handed 10 dollars over to UPS to ship my Wii U and I don't expect it back until the middle of next week

Re: Halting Wii U System Update May Brick the System

My system was a brick out of the box, I p;ugged everything in turned everything on and didn't get any signal and I got the Blue Blink Of Death. Happy that nintendo is fixing it for free and expediting the shipment, but I am dissapointed and feel slightly screwed, especially since I did not brick the thing never even saw startup screen.

Now I sit and look the games I bought, then go to my car and cry

Re: Doubts About Monster Hunter 3 G Worldwide Release

I personally wouldn't buy it for two reasons: I have the wii version and no onlineplay. That being said tri was my first mh game and I crave more, it is an absolute day one buy if 4 comes over online play or not. As a side note the online community for the wii is still fairly strong so I think a mh on a nintendo console would be welcomed with open arms

Re: Pledge to Cloudberry Kingdom, Get It Free on Wii U

I'm with mercury9 this seems absurd to pay for someone elses unfinished work (I know you get your money back if it does'nt work out), especially when it is a product that will be released nonetheless such as this seems to be. I say that just from reading the posts here about "polishing" the game up i have not read their faq. another point i saw mercury bring up was a loan, if the company can't or isn't willing to take out a loan it shows some lack of a business plan or even worse poor management of previous funds. I don't agree with begging and i don't like paying for a product with no guarantee of ever getting it, because i do consider the original "donation" as paying even with a guarantee of money back. I can buy a game at gamestop with a moneyback guarantee and at least i know i will play it then get my money back. also this is a very loose definition of donating in my opinion. donating is to help the needy not the greedy this is more like an investment with no returns. why not offer dividends and make it a publicly traded company.
