Re: The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes Director Defends Absence of Female Playable Characters

ultimate321

Heroes, video game characters and protagonists do not need to be female. They also do not need to be male. The story and the series call for a male character so let it be. The absence of a female playable character is nothing bad. No one has ever asked for a male Tomb Raider character. Inclusiveness is good as it does not exclude certain profiles of characters simply for their identity but shoehorning female/none white/ non straight characters for the hell of it is determinable and counterproductive. Link is and always has been a male character. If Nintendo decides the story calls for a female heroine then so be it but complaining about the absence of females is ridiculous.

Re: ​Mario Kart 8's 200cc Mode Has Apparently Negated Firehopping

ultimate321

@SirRandall
Its not cheating and firehopping is simply removing yourself from the group in order to maintain a boost. Its avoiding friction and the loss of boost when your on the ground. Thats not cheating. It is a technique that players use from in game mechanics to give themselves an advantage. And its not a cheat, its something that requires skill to do. I can't do it myself but I'm not going to say its cheating when its not just because I can't do it myself. The players who incorporate firehopping are also the players who are most invested and who have the most practice so they're really the Mario Kart elites, of course they will win online.

Re: Talking Point: What We Want To See From Nintendo's Next Handheld

RIP physical? No way, I sure as hell don't want to go into such nasty territories. Digital is great and all but as a choice. I'm not tired of having gaming cartridges at all. What else gives you that feeling of buying it at the store and excitedly opening the package? A download sure won't.
Also, you can't improve graphical power and have the different touchscreen AND a good price. Havinga a multitouch touchscreen on a portable or the wii u is ridiculous. Imagine using that :/. Its better to leave it as is ditch the touch gimmick as well. Otherwise,I agree.

Re: Sony Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida Highlights Brushes With Miiverse Law

Of course the rules are too strict. Virtually all ( I don't want to say literally all because that would be unfair ) of Nintendo's policies are too damn strict. It's great that friend codes are much easier but they're existence is still unnecessary. I wish the friend code system for 3ds was changed so that it was only necessary if Parental Controls are implemented. And messaging across 3ds and the internet would be great. Anyways, slightly off topic.

Re: Ninterview: Jason "Mew2King" Zimmerman on Mastering Super Smash Bros.

ultimate321

Not trying to dismias the guys talent but he comes off as incredibly arrogant and conceited. Every single comment theres no sense of humility or at least a straight up response. All his replies have to feed into some soet of self elevation. Im not saying deny your talent but theres a fine line between what hea doing and simply acknloedging your good. I dont know the guy so i really wont jumo to conclusions but thats the impression this interview gives.

Re: Nintendo Picks Up Multiple Nominations in D.I.C.E. Awards

@Gamer83 ALTTP didn't have a long tutorial either, at all actually. I almost felt that ALBW was sort of dry in the story department and didn't have the cohesive narrative of the recent zeldas. Then I played ALTTP and guess what? it was very similar. That's why I thought it was the PERFECT sequel. ALTTP didn't have any long boring, twilight princess/skyward sword tutorial and I just played it.

Re: Nintendo Left Online Out Of Super Mario 3D World To Deliver The "NES" Experience

ultimate321

I have to agree. Online multiplayer has become a plague. Dont get menwrong, ive enjoyed many online muktiplayer sessions in different games. Yet the costs are high. The REAL aspect of yhe game, as in the single player campaign usuakky takes a hit, the focus goes to empty online experiences rather tha meaningful experiences. Look at cod one of the best selling franchises, the same thing over and over with nothing but ahooting and online. I dont want to sound backwarda but online multiplayer doesnt even get close to actual local multiplayer and local mumti gets dropped over and over in favour of online. Just look at how well this game was reviewed without online. Its not necessary to shove it into every game.

Re: Poll: Nintendo and the Wii U Fight For Your Attention in This Busiest of Gaming Months

ultimate321

@vattodev While I appreciate your mature response I have to say that your still making some odd claims. They're not spreading rumors. Saying that there has been a certain amount of sales without including digital is not a rumor, its a fact. It does not represent the totality of game sales because unfortunately the source material does not list digital sales but that doesn't mean it is a false rumor. They are simply reporting on sales and statistics with the acknowledgement that digital sales are not there. Of course, not having digital downloads creates a skewed perspective of the sales but does that not also apply to any game?

Re: Poll: Nintendo and the Wii U Fight For Your Attention in This Busiest of Gaming Months

ultimate321

@vattodev really? Is there something wrong wrong with talking about sales during the peak time of the year in terms of sales? Is there something wrong with talking about the interest people have in it? I don't want to sound aggressive but that's really immature. If you can't handle the fact that the wii u has low sales then that's your problem. The rest of us WANT the wii u to do great and want to know how its doing that. Part of that is sales.

Re: Super Mario 3D World Producer Says DLC is Unlikely To Happen

ultimate321

To be honest, DLC is a mixed bag. I always thought it was great because it gave additional content until I realized the way it was misused. IF publishers were trustworthy enough to release a full game and come up with something after to extend the game life, I think that would be perfect. As for no online multiplayer... I'm really tired of hearing "in 2013 there's multiplayer"? I don't know what the year has to do with having a GOOD single player experience. I know not relevant to this game but as a rant, I really dislike multiplayer being shoved in a game particularly when its the faceless online only and there is no local -_-.

Re: Review: Goof Troop (Super Nintendo)

ultimate321

I could be completely wrong...but this is a review of a 20 year old game...which makes me think its on the virtual console... Yet there is no indication of that or on which system it is? I could be wrong but I dont see it. Any clarification would be great. Thanks in advance!

Re: These Wii U Assassin's Creed IV Black Flag Screenshots Look Very Pretty Indeed

ultimate321

Maybe just maybe it is improved textures. After watching a ps3/ps4 comparison video extensively I can say that the scenes on the boat with the black guy and Edward were mostly similar but the difference in quality was visible in the skin and clothing of the black guy. His skin definitely looks realistic than the ps3 and almost at the ps4 level. However, the ps4 did have non blurred out water in the background but hey what can we expect really?

@MrGawain
I think you have to remember gMes have a 2d heritage. Theres nothing inherently wrong with tbis model of gameplay. If tbey had done it right, the possibilities couls have been amazing. From what I've read it does not deliver on the promise that it can bring but it isn't so bad. It really fruatrates me when any comment like : omg its 2013 why isnit 2d, the 3ds stopped this from being a 3dz gamez!, or 2dz so muzt sux!

Re: Aonuma: Information About Majora's Mask Can Be Found By Playing A Link Between Worlds

ultimate321

@ToniK
Why wouldn't it happen? There's many reasons why it would not be out yet. For one, remake right after a remake wouldnt be a good idea. Second, they said it was between ALTTP sequel and MM remake. Clearly we got the sequel but MM is not ruled out and they tease it a lot. Furthermore, there are many many marketing reasons that we cannot hope to know.
I have to disagree. The original has aged extremely well. Its still an amazing game and the mechanics all work great. What do you think has not aged well?

Re: Nintendo UK: Awareness Is The Real Issue With The Wii U, Not Price

@unrandomsam
Sorry but that was a bit of an ignorant statement. Cultural attitudes are dfferent in japan and I can bet that employment attitudes of women aren't the same there as in the "west". Thus if you hvaave many more men in the field then its unlikely that tthe reps will end up being womenm I doubt they have that affirmative action quota crap over there.
