Re: PEGI Rates Monster World IV for Virtual Console

outrun2sp

If its 60hz on wii that will be great for europe.

Im getting the 360 version because it contains a cool front end where you can play 3 of the titles. Also M2 are porting it so it isnt backboned.

One good thing for wii is that it has the superior dragons curse (wonderboy dragons trap) and Dynastic Hero (Wonderboy in monsterworld). These are the best versions of both of them.

I will be getting the 360 version because of the 60hz option.

Grey Lancer was listed as 60hz but only runs at 50hz so dont hold your breath.

On WII its best to enjoy dragons curse and dynastic hero which are two great monsterworld games that are better then the sega counterparts. 60hz turbo duo.

Re: R-Type Being Removed from Virtual Console

Well if anyone wants to get the exclusive secret level found on stage 4 they should get this before it goes.

Its a good competent version of r type and one of the top 10 master system games. Definately one of the best arcade conversions on the hardware.

Re: GameCube to See New Downloadable Life on Wii U

Nintendo really have done it now. They know all the fanboys will yet again buy stuff that they already own again!!!!

They know that all the people who bought the 3ds will buy the upgrade model.

Just like people bought DS then DSI.

Now gamecube games will be included in this.

Re: Nintendo Collaborating with Third-Parties to Make Hits

outrun2sp

My thoughts on why nintendo wont win with the third parties and the level that they will support wii u.

Namco for obvious reasons although id expect ridge racer and a tekken game. Ridge racer will be fun to play with a tablet control with non analogue shoulder buttons. Tekken will be fun to play with a tablet...............

Capcom will want to continue major assetts on PS3 and 360 and companies like sony and microsoft will pay them for exclusive rights of the major games. Nintendo wont pay.

Konami may release some classics but games like metal gear will stick with sonys machine. Also pro evolution soccer on that pad...............

Arc System works obviously are but that pad.............

EA will most likely release on all platforms but with a controller like that whos gonna want to play fifa or tiger woods with that.....

Square Enix will keep the best games on the above formats and release childish variants of Final Fantasy etc on WII U.

Activision will release games on all formats but I can see them being the same ports as the other platforms.

Re: Reggie Discusses Wii U Branding, "Not a Difficult Sell"

outrun2sp

I sense that a lot of people on here are not completely happy with the WII U including some of the staff here. On many other forums like gamefaqs and kotaku the same opinion is going around.

Nintendo had better not screw this one up or they will be in trouble. Perhaps the final blow to them.

Its made even worse with that ex mcdonalds employee Reggie in charge of nintendo america.

Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX (Game Boy Color)

Fantastic game. This is my favourite Zelda of all time and its even more fun then the Snes version. Seeing this makes me want a 3DS as there will be no battery backup problems.

I remember the original gameboy zelda version of this where you could teleport by hitting the select button at the end of the screen. Was of course fixed in DX.

This game could be the reason why I end up getting a 3DS..............

AMAZING GAME.

Re: Review: FAST - Racing League (WiiWare)

outrun2sp

WOW. I dont know where this game came from but it is hands down the best racer on Wii after F Zero GX. Utterly amazing suprise. This is better then at least 100 retail wii releases.

Im gonna be playing some serious time on this.

Get to it. Its so worth it. For all the hard work, you get to unlock all of the tracks from the f zero ax arcade machine and the selectable pods. The graphics are actually a notch above the standard gx tracks.

F zero on gc matches the arcade machine and betters it in so many ways. Ive had my disk for f zero for years now and I hope that it will run in the project cafe machine. Also my miracle memory card that I darent wipe.

The only other game I can think of that does that is outrun 2006.

Re: High Voltage Responds Badly to Scathing Conduit 2 Review

And to think that people bigged this game up to be a killer exclusive on wii. After playing the first one i knew this wouldnt work. I wonder if the grinder will come out now. That one had a better theme.

The best exclusive fps games are still metroid 3 which i think is the best. Of course after that goldeneye and there is always modern warfare and black ops for non exclusives.

Re: New Elements Planned for Mario Kart on the 3DS

outrun2sp

Dont like the sound of that, basically balance out means if your artichoke they will still keep you in the race. Blue shells should be taken away and it should be like a pure racer where if your in front on skill you cannot be taken down by the person in last position like bullet bill or the blue shell.

Re: Nintendo Reinforcing Western Development for Wii's Successor

outrun2sp

They are finally admitting to mistakes, this is amazing. The first party titles are not enough to carry the machine anymore as once people have bought the zelda, mario, mario kart games there has been nothing else to buy.

Third party support is what the new nintendo machine needs to bring back the glory days of the snes and they do have an opportunity here I think to go in front of the other 2 machines if they do this right.

Re: Nintendo Expected Higher 3DS Sales

outrun2sp

3DS is not going to do well in the long run I predict and im certainly not getting one. I think the processing power of the psp2 is going to blow it away (sorry for saying that here). The game that they are bigging up mostly is a remake of an N64 game........

3DS should keep nintendo heads happy (who've parted with cash again for nintendo) but secretly everyone must be feeling this is an accident waiting to happen. I mean look at the battery life etc.
.
Even the kids these days want iphones / ipads.

While I still like my WII and Snes, the one thing thats better about sega fans as a pose to nintendos is that nintendo fans never ever will admit when nintendo has made a mistake yet the sega fans will definately stand up and admit where they have gone wrong.

Re: Iwata Expresses Regrets About the Way the Wii was Marketed

outrun2sp

Good to see that its acknowledged that there are more important things then how many units are sold.

Everytime theres a boast about sales figures on this site im like meh to it because what really counts is software sales and thats where the wii has been poor. Im gonna ignore those articles from now on.

Wii outselling PS3 and 360 doesnt matter to me because its not a superior machine and the audience actually buying them arent really sophisticated or serious about gaming. Nintendo has lost lots of street credibility that it had during the nes / snes / n64 days because of this.

Hardware units are sold quickly especially to children but allot of these people only have about 5 games including Wii sports and rubbish like carnival game pack. The people surely then move on and go and get PS3's later.

When the new nintendo machine comes out im sure it will be different.
