#71468 zelda

Posted by AMAC on 11 April 2012 - 07:00 AM in The Café

There is already a thread to discuss your favourite Zelda games:
http://thewiiu.com/t...-of-zelda-game/

I'm locking this thread.



#112298 Youtube Help (PLEASE READ)

Posted by AMAC on 24 September 2012 - 07:20 AM in The Café

Locking, as there is an existing thread for YouTube channels:

#71657 Your Favorite Cars

Posted by AMAC on 11 April 2012 - 11:50 PM in The Café

The McLaren F1 is a great looking car and I'd love to own one. The Ferrari Enzo is another favourite car of mine.

Spoiler


I also really like the Caterham 7, and I'm planning to enter the Caterham Motorsport Academy when I can afford it. It might not look like much, but it has a great power to weight ratio and is one of the quickest road cars around a track.

#80265 YOU GUYS!

Posted by AMAC on 22 May 2012 - 11:47 PM in General Gaming

I don't really see the point of this thread. If you want to keep other members up to date with what's going on in your life, please make status updates instead.



#83681 Yea or Nay: Non-Specific Action Figure?

Posted by AMAC on 03 June 2012 - 11:07 PM in Wii U Hardware

It would be quite nice to have one, but like Joshua, mine would probably end up on a shelf, being completely ignored after a couple of days.



#91802 Xbox8

Posted by AMAC on 04 July 2012 - 03:13 AM in General Gaming

Xbox Infinity seems like a plausible name to me an do agree that it's better than Xbox 720. However, these big companies often purchase lots of domains, many of which are never used. I think there was a similar rumour about the Wii U, regarding a domain that Nintendo had purchased.



#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.



#90543 Would you be disappointed if Nintendo Land and NSMB U don't have online p...

Posted by AMAC on 28 June 2012 - 12:10 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I'd be disappointed if NintendoLand doesn't have any online features. I think NSMBU should also have online play as I think games which have multiplayer modes should also have online play as that's what many gamers want.



#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.



#145458 Win 1 of 2 Wii minis from Eggplante!

Posted by AMAC on 08 December 2012 - 09:14 AM in General Gaming

I'd consider this to be advertising, so I'm locking it. You're free to advertise your site in your signature though.



#133606 Will we ever see a gay hero in a high production game?

Posted by AMAC on 19 November 2012 - 11:57 AM in General Gaming

I think that there will before openly gay characters in video games in the future, but I don't see the main hero of any game being openly gay anytime soon for two reasons. Firstly, the fact is that there are still a lot of homophobic people in the world, and the chances are that as a result of this, the sales of a game would suffer, particularly in certain areas which have strong views on homosexuality. Secondly, most people aren't gay, and I think a lot of straight people may find it harder to relate to an openly gay character, especially if sexuality was important in the game.

However, I think it will happen one day, and to be honest, although I'm straight, I wouldn't have any huge issues with playing as a gay character.



#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.



#65476 WiiU game prices

Posted by AMAC on 08 March 2012 - 11:36 PM in Wii U Hardware

I'm about to confuse you all now by using a different currency. :P I like to think that games will be £40, although I have a feeling that most games will be nearer the £50 mark when they're initially released.



#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.



#74994 WiiPad Rumored to use Android OS:

Posted by AMAC on 26 April 2012 - 11:07 AM in Wii U Hardware

I have doubts about this rumour too. Nintendo systems have always used their own operating systems and I don't see why they'd change now. Using Android could do more harm than good for the Wii U, as it would cause some people to dismiss the Wii U as a tablet with buttons.



#99167 Wii U to launch in september?

Posted by AMAC on 12 August 2012 - 12:53 PM in Wii U Hardware

A September release seems unlikely to me. I think we'd have had confirmation of the release date by now if that was the case and I'm sure Nintendo would be advertising it more heavily.



#134558 Wii U Software Section

Posted by AMAC on 20 November 2012 - 09:53 AM in Site News and Feedback

We could simply turn the Wii U Games section into a Games and Software section, or we could add a software sub-forum. I doubt that there will be a huge amount of discussion on software in the long-term, so I'm not convinced that we should have a dedicated forum to discuss software.



#64230 Wii U Price Discussion

Posted by AMAC on 01 March 2012 - 11:29 AM in Wii U Hardware

I'm merging this thread with the existing price discussion thread.



#88287 Wii U Price Discussion

Posted by AMAC on 17 June 2012 - 12:13 PM in Wii U Hardware

I'm pretty sure this is simply a placeholder price, so I wouldn't read too much into this. It's just there to give customers a rough idea of what they can expect to pay for the Wii U. I don't know exactly when stores will be told the Wii U's retail price, but I don't think they will until much nearer the Wii U's launch.

By the way, I'm merging this with the official price discussion thread.



#89394 Wii U News Forum

Posted by AMAC on 22 June 2012 - 05:09 AM in Site News and Feedback

I'd rather have the Introduction section at the top once the E3 section is removed, as having it there will hopefully encourage more new members to take the time to introduce themselves. Members aren't able to post in the news section, so I don't think putting it at the top would benefit the forum.



#145804 Wii U News

Posted by AMAC on 09 December 2012 - 03:07 AM in Site News and Feedback

I can see where you're coming from here, but allowing users to post in that section would discourage them from visiting and commenting on Wii U Go/Blog, which is not something that either Feld0 or David would want, so it's unlikely that either of them would want to allow users to post in the Wii U News forum. If you want to discuss articles, the best thing to do is follow the links and comment on the external sites, or create a thread here for the story.



#134539 Wii U Hacked to Run Homebrew

Posted by AMAC on 20 November 2012 - 09:30 AM in Wii U Hardware

Locking the thread for the reasons that other users have mentioned, in addition to the fact that it's already started to go off-topic.

As for the whole reporting posts issue, we appreciate it when users take the time to send reports, saying publicly that you've reported someone doesn't achieve anything and can make you look like a bit of a snitch. You're better off just reporting and leaving it for us to deal with or politely pointing out that a user is breaking the rules.



#98769 Wii U EU Delayed

Posted by AMAC on 10 August 2012 - 06:34 AM in Wii U Hardware

That's a shame, but it doesn't sound like it'll be a huge delay and I guess it makes sense to focus on releasing it in time for Thanksgiving in the US, so I can live with it.



#93446 Wii U CPU confirmed (by respected game producer) As weak.

Posted by AMAC on 15 July 2012 - 11:25 AM in Wii U Hardware

I'd like to remind you guys that while debates like this are fine, insulting other users is not, and some of the posts in this thread are bordering on being insulting. If I see anymore offensive posts here, I'm going to start giving out warnings.

Can we also please stop typing in all-caps?



#98061 Wii U Box Case design revealed?

Posted by AMAC on 06 August 2012 - 09:00 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Those look pretty nice to me.  I'll be happy if these turn out to be the real box art designs.
