Re: Hardware Classics: Sega Mega Drive

@Deathgaze The you, sir, are seriously in need of help. I wouldn't have had a problem if you'd wrote what you did in a different way but you just make yourself sound like a deluded thirteen year old fanboy desperate for a pissing contest.

Dynamite Heady alone was reason enough for the console to be on equal placing with the Super Famicom/SNES.

Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Swinging Onto 3DS

@Stuffgamer1 The time trial "BS" were optional extras when the game was finished if you wanted to go for 100% and were hard but fun challenges. How you can fault the game for that is, frankly, "BS."

I'm a huge DKC fan, the second game on the SNES is as good as any 2D Mario and Sonic (bar Super Mario World, obviously) and after initially being unsure on DKCR it grew to become my favourite in the series. It's a superb game. Hopefully if it does well on 3DS it will lead to a much deserved sequel.

Re: New "Batman Arkham" Title Due in 2013

@Highwinter Nonsense. The game - and a good deal many more - will be coming out for PS3/360 over this year, the next and probably the one after that too. Look at how the Wii U is failing everywhere, do you really think developers, well actually publishers, will want to chance this happening to PS4/720? A lot of big third party games will be on current consoles for the next couple of years because of the massive user bases they have and that with the way the world is at the moment people can't justify spending £350+ on a new console.

Re: 3D Super Mario Title In Development For Wii U

@ScreamoPichu I really hope it is. The original was the best game ever made and then the sequel topped it. Who wouldn't want to see them try and top that? But I also hope we get a second, non-Galaxy, Mario game. Greedy? Perhaps. But why not?

Re: Sumo Digital: Mario Kart Should Incorporate Other Nintendo Franchises

Rather than continuously bigging up his own game he should be working on a way to make the game load quicker than it does (took me seventy-nine seconds to get from 'Press Start' to the menu), make it quicker to restart a race/event rather than the continuous crap going on and options you need to traverse, making sure that after some perfect jumps the boost actually works, that cars don't just lose control for no reason after some jumps and millions of other little niggles that are stopping this game from being great and merely being good.

Oh, and get Ralph and the NASCAR woman the **** out of the game!

A massive ice world where Mii's in big parka's can climb mountains and do all sorts of platforming in a Journey-sequence world is what I imagine a new Ice Climbers would be like.

If Bayonetta 2 brings a new partnership between Nintendo and Platinum then I'd like them to make either a Zelda/sandbox setting with Bayonetta-style action in a Nazo no Murasame Jō sequel or mix in Metal Gear Rising style action with bike bits on. Mach Rider sequel.

Much rather have something unique and quirky like Friend Collection than yet another bland and boring Monster Quest. Realise I'm probably in the minority though.

Oooh? Coin Rush DLC news perhaps? fingers crossed even though it looks like just hints

Re: Watch: Japanese Nintendo Direct Live

Going to be brutally honest: those two 'girl' games look chuffing awesome! Always up for a bit of rhythm action (especially to J-Pop) and that fashion one looks strangely captivating and is gorgeous visually. As was Iwata being paperised just then.

Re: Feature: Our Favourite Super Mario Games

5. Super Mario 3D Land
4. Super Mario Galaxy
3. Super Mario World
2. Super Mario 64
1. Super Mario Galaxy 2

SMG2 is, for me, the only game in over sixteen years that has been better than Super Mario 64. No other game has even come close.

Re: Feature: Obscure Series That Should Return on Wii U

rastamadeus

@NintyFan I've been playing the rather fantastic Journey the last few days. I think Nintendo should have a crack at a similar sort of game. Except in the snow. With platforming. And Mii's in Ice Climber outfits (I say Mii as that way it can be as social as Journey and you could meet other Ice Climbers). I really think if they do it properly, and on 3DS, it could work and be a very interesting title.
