Re: It's Now Possible To Play Virtual Boy Games On Your Android Phone

mushroomer

i;ve been saying that they should port virtual boy games to 3ds for ever. my other genius idea was to allow for 3d video uploading to youtube.. and a 3d youtube viewer app for the 3ds. so you can watch endless 3d content . no other device can claim to do that.. maybe a 3d tv with glasses but think of how many people have 3ds's

Nintendo totally missed the boat on that one.

Re: Nintendo Updates Its Guidance on Super Mario Maker Level Deletions

i think they should just put a mature rating on levels. so instead of deleting them, just put them into a mature category that kids can not view. if that user is in for getting more stars, then it would just mean that those who bracket themselves off into the mature only category, will not be played by most of the users meaning less stars. so, if they want their creation to be seen by more people, it would only encourage cleaner designs

So i wish they released this information BEFORE they permanently console banned me from CourseWorld. i was a fan of nintendo since NES when i was 10 years old. I think Im about ready to step away for good after the bad taste they left in my mouth since they have no mercy on cheating that i fell into from a glitch back in feb.

Re: Video: Everything We Know About Nintendo NX, So Far

Hey guys can we start a Prediction Thread? that would be fun to brainstorm what WE think the next system should and shouldnt be able to do.. NO?

My first Prediction:

One of the surprise announcement will be that you can take this VERY portable and POWERFUL system with you anywhere as well as screen cast it to smart tv's and a special NX set top box. similar to ChromeCast and Roku.

The cool thing about being able to take this system with you is that they will start opening hotspots in Malls and Gamestop stores and Arcades so that you can play the games that are hosted there.

Another NEW and amazing feature will be that you can bring this system with you to the new Nintendo Theme Park in Orlando. There will be rides and kiosks with exclusive content and gaming action that only people who bring them with them can experience for themselves. So for EXAMPLE

The Mario Kart ride at the new Theme Park is fun like any other ride similar to Olando studios and Disney World. but if you get on the same ride and bring your NX portable. you can use it to shoot down koopas and enemies and at the end of the level. you get a highscore.. the leaderboard will really bring people back for more and it wont be a stupid one. it will be very clever and Miyamoto-like.

Anybody think this to be cool?

Re: Super Mario Maker Developers Talk About the Recent Update and Other Potential "Maker" Games

@Mogster totally on same page with you. everybody says zelda maker.. i say no. mario is a platformer. you get instant jumps and hurdles to satisfy that part of the gamer. zelda is a puzzle adventure. puzzles have to be designed by teams and implemented over months of thought and brainstorming by design geniuses. if we got the world to design puzzles, boy they would either be trolling or horribly boring. compared to a complicated nintendo deisgner.

Re: Video: Jessica Chobot Is Samus Aran In This Lavish Fan-Made Metroid Short

mushroomer

well... looks really polished for a fan made short.. BUT, all amazing productions aside.. story is very bland. What i mean is, many will be dozing off because there isnt any character development.. but really well done.. feels more like a tribute short rather than a realistic Hollywood film. I would love to see a sort of time travel element introduced into the metroid universe. J.J. Abrahams meets Metroid. Or even alternative universe.. which i suppose the prime games did play around with.. where you revisit areas that have changed...

Re: Amazon Now Offering Nintendo Games For Direct Digital Download

One more advantage for Nintendo to offer digital on Amazon is exposure. Right now, a parent who goes to Target usually doesnt go to the electronic department. And the definitely do not go to eShop on the wii u. But, they do get slammed with Amazon ads and offers.. I can imagine many amazon users seeing mario maker for the first time through amazon. Not really knowing what it is.. and if they know that their kid or grand kid has a wii U. then purchasing a game gets much easier for them. theyve also always had the physical option too. i suppose.

Re: Amazon Now Offering Nintendo Games For Direct Digital Download

mushroomer

What should I do guys?

I already preordered physical copy from amazon with $10 discount with Amazon Prime.

But the physical copy could be scratched someday.. I have little kids who do that sort of thing from time to time.

Amazon doesnt give 10 dollar discount for digital.. (as far as i know) so my question is to this community..

Mario Maker Digital for 59.99
or
Mario Maker Physical for 49.99 (potential of scratching and.. disc load time and.. possible for loosing disc)

Re: Amazon Now Offering Nintendo Games For Direct Digital Download

Also, having an option to filter out certain topics like new features in a game like Mario Maker that spoils the enjoyment of discovering things yourself. Maybe dont reveal it in the headline. but rather require a click to the actual article to reveal it. you could put something like this "New Character Unlockable Mario Maker" instead of "Be Windwaker Link In Mario Maker"

Re: Video: Let's Remind Ourselves How Totally Radical The 1990 Nintendo World Championships Really Were

mushroomer

GUYS i was in the Chicago based one. I made it past the first round. then they said you have to return the next day for quarter finals.. My parents didn't even consider returning again. Totally out of the question.

I also remember gameboys on display for the first time. The first time i saw tetris on a portable.

I also remember going and watching a boy show off his skills. He was the winner in california or something and he showed off how to get coins faster in the 1st part where you have to get i think 50 coins.. then you have to do 2 laps of rad racer? and then finally you have an overall time limit to get as many points as possible in tetris NES. SO cool. but that memory is so deep. hard to remember all the details. Also without internet back then, I had not clue who won.

Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Reckons "It Would Be Cool" if Rare's Banjo Was Voted in as Super Smash Bros. DLC

I already voted for BONK.

The problem with opening up voting to the public is that majority of voters im suspecting will be the more recent generation meaning they wont even know what im talking about.

It was
Bonk
Excitebike Racer
Thomas from Kung Fu
Mike Tyson (would be totally awesome. They could create a Dream Bout level.)
Wart from Super Mario Bros 2 USA
Birdo (why not)
Mother Brain
QBert
Frogger
Popeye
to name a few...

Re: Reminder: This is Your Last Day to Register Products on Club Nintendo

mushroomer

seriously.. this puts less and less faith in their NX online plans.. can you imagine? if they cant even get a SURVEY based online experience to work smoothly? how will they unify 3ds, wii u, nx, pc, and phones.. i guess if you dont mind waiting around 5 hours and hope you can log in... and once you are.. who knows if you can even jump.
