#57804 Xbox 720 to block used games?

Posted by AMAC on 27 January 2012 - 07:22 AM in General Gaming

This would put me off the Xbox 720 if it proves to be true, although I can understand why the games industry want to try and stamp put pre-owned games as they don't gain anything from sales of pre-owned games.



#57833 What if Nintendo changes its mind

Posted by AMAC on 27 January 2012 - 09:22 AM in Site News and Feedback

I've moved this to Site News/Feedback as it's about the site rather than the Wii U. These sites were called Wii 2 Blog and Wii 2 Boards before E3 last year, when they were renamed as Wii U Go and Wii U Forums respectively. I expect that the site names will be updated once again if the name does change at E3 this year, but I can't be 100% sure.



#58085 Project C.A.R.S.

Posted by AMAC on 28 January 2012 - 03:26 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I noticed that some of the steering wheels in the game looked like it was loosely based on the Wii U controller.
...or maybe that's what racing steering wheels look like :P

Also, nice concept! This is definately a game that could take advantage of the gyroscope and touchscreen simultaneously.


Formula Ome steering wheels are generally that shape, although I think that's a great concept! The Wii U Controller could work very well as a steering wheel for this game.



#58086 When will the Colorful Wiiu's be revealed?

Posted by AMAC on 28 January 2012 - 03:31 AM in Wii U Hardware

I think that at launch there will only be a white Wii U, although I can see there being one alternative colour scheme, most likely black, as there was with the 3DS. I don't think there'll be much in the way of bright colours available for the Wii U. Usually it's just handhelds that are released in lots of different colours, whereas recent home consoles have had a very limited choice of colours.



#58087 Wii U 2X MORE POWERFUL THAN XBOX 720?

Posted by AMAC on 28 January 2012 - 03:34 AM in Wii U Hardware

We already have a thread discussing this rumour.

I'm locking this thread now.



#58356 Pro Pizza! >:D Forum take over! Muahahahah

Posted by AMAC on 29 January 2012 - 03:01 AM in The Café

I don't think a topic is really necessary for this announcement, so this thread is being locked. As for the 100 posts milestone, you shouldn't worry about increasing your post count, but just post because you want to discuss topics.



#58357 Chatroom

Posted by AMAC on 29 January 2012 - 03:04 AM in Site News and Feedback

I'm locking the thread at your request, Massattacker.



#58358 Wish Corrupted (IDEA FROM NINTENDO LIFE FORUMS)

Posted by AMAC on 29 January 2012 - 03:15 AM in Roleplay and Forum Games

We already have this game. Locking.



#59608 Custom made 3D modeled Wii U controller by Hinkik

Posted by AMAC on 04 February 2012 - 09:26 AM in The Museum

That looks pretty awesome! I don't know if I like the black buttons on a white controller though. I think it might look better if they were white or Een if they were grey.



#59609 Count until a Mod/Admin posts! [HI SCORE: 208]

Posted by AMAC on 04 February 2012 - 09:28 AM in Roleplay and Forum Games

I've been neglecting this thread recently. I won't let you get into triple figures again.



#59634 WiiU Game Demos

Posted by AMAC on 04 February 2012 - 12:36 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I'd be very surprised if they didn't have demos on the eShop as they have them on the 3DS and there's much more demand for downloadable demos now than there was when the Wii was released.



#59772 Count until a Mod/Admin posts! [HI SCORE: 208]

Posted by AMAC on 05 February 2012 - 02:38 AM in Roleplay and Forum Games

2. Just wait. It'll happen when you least expect it. We WILL break 208!


No. :P



#59794 2 questions

Posted by AMAC on 05 February 2012 - 05:44 AM in Site News and Feedback

I'm interested in the term "active posts" do our posts stop adding to our post counts at some point over time or is it just a word added for no reason?

Do you have a list of moderators/special privileges users? Nevermind, found them at the bottom of the index.
Is there a reason you have no moderators? You two admins must be very active to mod the whole forum yourselves.

Congrats to amac btw.


1) Active posts include every post you've made on the forum, including those in sections like the Forum Games section which don't actually count towards post count. That's the only difference between active posts and post count.

2) The reason there are no moderators at the moment is simply because I've only just stopped being a mod and I was the only one.

3) Thank you! :)



#59795 Do you still want Miis?

Posted by AMAC on 05 February 2012 - 05:55 AM in Wii U Hardware

I hope that there will still be Miis on the Wii U and I don't see any reason for Nintendo to stop using them. I'd like it of the Miis are a bit more advanced for the Wii U though, with more options for hair, faces, noses, etc. I'd also like to be able to customise my Mii's clothing and download new outfits from the eShop.



#59839 Ask Elric

Posted by AMAC on 05 February 2012 - 11:57 AM in The Café

Why have you changed your name to Elric?



#60041 Nintendo grabs sizable booth for GDC show floor

Posted by AMAC on 06 February 2012 - 09:28 AM in Wii U Hardware

I'm not expecting many announcement s about the Wii U here. I think that it'll mainly be to let more people sample the Wii U, with a few small bits of news to create some more excitement ahead of the full unveiling at E3.

This thread Seems to have gone off-topic and the original questions have been answered. As a result, it's been locked.



#61202 Why dosen't this website work on my itouch

Posted by AMAC on 12 February 2012 - 03:15 AM in Site News and Feedback

It works fine on my iPod Touch. When you use you're iPod, do you view the mobile version of the site, or the full version? Also, are you using Safari, or another browser that you downloaded from the App Store?



#61203 Dang, there will be lots of people on this website after E3 and WiiU launch

Posted by AMAC on 12 February 2012 - 03:21 AM in Site News and Feedback

I wouldn't worry too much about trolls. We've had a few in the past and there'll be more in the future, but if you guys report any trolls you see, myself, Feld0 or Brian will deal with them as soon as we can.

As for getting to know all of the new members that join around E3, it shouldn't be too hard. When David from 3DS Forums became an admin back in June last year, I thought it would take ages to get to know all of the new members, but after a couple of days I recognised most of the active members.



#61211 WiiU Steering Wheel Idea

Posted by AMAC on 12 February 2012 - 04:47 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I'm not that fussed about a steering wheel add-on to be honest. I'm sure a third party or Nintendo will make one, but I'd be happy just to turn the controller itself. It works pretty well with iPad games just to turn the device. I also think that a steering wheel could make the controller unnecessarily big and heavy.



#61226 Microsoft now joing the party?

Posted by AMAC on 12 February 2012 - 07:50 AM in General Gaming

As the others have said, this topic is already covered in this thread:

Locking.



#61753 I WON THE LOTTERY

Posted by AMAC on 15 February 2012 - 04:50 AM in Roleplay and Forum Games

It would largely depend on how much I won. I'd definitely get a nice car and flat for myself. I'd also use the money for when I go to uni, so that I wouldn't leave with any debt. I'd probably also invest in other properties and make some income from renting them out.



#62093 Chat

Posted by AMAC on 17 February 2012 - 10:56 AM in Site News and Feedback

Do you have AdBlock installed on your browser. I Think it's caused problems with the Chat before, so If you use it, try disabling it. If that doesn't work, then try disabling any other add-ons in case they're causing the problem.



#62294 I'm banned from chat right?

Posted by AMAC on 18 February 2012 - 12:27 PM in Site News and Feedback

To answer your question, yes, you are currently banned from the Chat and it is possible to lift bans. As this only really concerns Sportsgamer and the moderating team, there isn't any need for further discussion here. Locking.



#62298 -

Posted by AMAC on 18 February 2012 - 12:49 PM in The Café

I disagree. Voting is optional in the UK too and I don't think making it compulsory would solve any problems. A lot of people have no interest in politics and I don't see much point in those people voting.
