Re: Wahoo, It's a Mario Party 9 Trailer

I'm a huge fan of the boxart. Delightfully vibrant! The game... ehhhh. I might still pick it up — the last Mario Party I got was the 4th. Trouble is, the games were fun back when I had loads of friends ready to drop by my place on a whim. Getting together a group of like-minded Mario Partying individuals isn't so easy anymore.

Re: Wii U Panorama View Demo is Awesome

zeeroid

It's really cool, but I'm still not totally convinced by its utility. Why is this that much better than simply changing the field of view on the primary display... with a right thumbstick, for example?

@espinozac7: It's just a Zelda tech demo tailor made for the Wii U. They used the Twilight Princess art style, but it's not really from a game, per se.

Re: Nintendo Download: 5th January 2012 (North America)

Only $5.99, you say? I can dig it. I'm not fully sold on the game just yet, though it looks promising, so I'll wait for a couple reviews to come in.

Edit: OK, so, I was totally confusing Samurai Sword Destiny with Sakurai Samurai. Goshdarnit.

Re: The Binding of Isaac Seeking Approval from Nintendo

zeeroid

I have long since given up hope for Super Meat Boy making it to a platform I actually want it on (Wii, PS3, DS, 3DS) and since I can't get behind the idea of playing a game like that on PC — I tried and it didn't feel right — I'll just have to wait till I can afford an Xbox 360, which will henceforth be referred to as my Super Meat Boy Box.

In the meantime? Isaac on 3DS is something I DO WANT.

Re: Review: Nintendo Letter Box (3DSWare)

It's super addictive and unabashedly fun, but there is indeed plenty of space for improvement. For all the awesome little touches there are just as many wrinkles. Fortunately, as they are merely wrinkles, it shouldn't take a tremendous amount of effort to smooth them out with updates.

Re: Review: Pullblox (3DSWare)

Excellent review.

So, we all know that in North America, the game is called Pushmo, while named Pullblox in Europe. But, its Japanese name "Hiku-Osu" essentially means "Push and Pull"!

Re: Nintendo Takes Home Four Awards at Spike VGAs

lol VGAs

I fast forwarded through the "show" and just watched the trailers and reveals. Much better use of my time. I did stop for a second to listen to Shiggy's acceptance speech, however. It was a rare treat to hear him speak in English; we all know how much he shies away from it, lest his meaning not come across as intended. But he did a great job!

Re: Review: Tales of the Abyss (3DS)

If the 3D effect truly is that bad, it will be mighty unfortunate. There hasn't been a 3DS game yet which I have not played on maxed out 3D. Guess I'll find out for myself.

Would have been nice if the port were a bit more polished, but I won't complain too much. Just want to get my hands on it now, since I missed it on PS2.
