#232823 What music are you listening to at the moment?

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 10:38 AM in The Café

 

Listen to this all the time, especially when I'm doing something that deserves "epic background music". :P

Enjoy.  Or don't.

 This is epic...




#233011 Ask Elric

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 06:23 PM in The Café

^ Most of these questions can't even be answered...

 

Aaaaaanyways, Expanding on what Toon Link asked, why are you Elric? Is there a deep backstory?

 

Follow-Up Question:

 

Why did you switch from SuperDarkYoshi?




#232818 Super Smash Bros. 4 Discussion Thread

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 10:19 AM in Wii U Games and Software

You know what would be funny? SSB4 having Crash Bandicoot or Spyro. The sony fans would kill themselves.

 

Love Crash. He'd make a great SSB character.  Too bad saying that it would be a longshot for him to be in Smash 4 is an understatement.  But seriously, though, Nintendo.  Funky Kong. And no I'm not biased. :P

#232966 Shin'en Explains Wii U EDRAM Usage

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 04:09 PM in Wii U Hardware

I'm glad to see this and look foward to the future ... not a single game released has tapped into the full power of the Wii U and I expect it will be years until they squeeze all its juice out.

 

That's one way to put it...




#233032 Are Devs "Lazy" Or Is The Wii U Difficult To Develop For?

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 07:53 PM in Wii U Hardware

Its not lazy, the teams that handle ports are the bottom of the barrel. They typically have the least/no experience which is why they dont actually make games, but simply port games other people make.

So not only do they not have the experience or knowledge to make use of something different than what they are used too, they have no idea what makes the engine they are porting really tick and cant dive deep into it for of screwing it up.

Take a look at the who said what. 99.99% of the time the scenario goes like this:

Wii u hard/weak: Comment made from/derived from port team that only knows how to use middleware engines and tools provided to them.

Wii u actually pretty powerful: experienced devs known to make their own engines/tools.


But it doesnt really matter any more. Screens of pikmin 3 are flooding miiverse, the cats out of the bag. Anyone with eyes is starting to notice the weak narrative about the wii u is full of crap.

Now im just waiting for big name western 3rd parties to once again, show everybody why I dont buy them on Nintendo systems. They release second rate crap for nintendo systems. And I dont buy crap.

 

Well. That was disheartening. Not false. Just disheartening.

#233038 Can something be done about all the damn spambots?

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 08:18 PM in Site News and Feedback

Funny, having joined yesterday, I've not yet had the "pleasure" of running in to one of these spam topics yet. Well, it can only be a matter of time.




#232970 I need some positivity to curb my WiiU disappointment :(

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 04:18 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Can't take you seriously, Basically the main reasons you don't want the wii U is because

1. The Xbox one and PS4 is more powerful, even tho reality has proven time and time again that better hardware does not equal better console

2. Because they had a bad launch... so did the 3DS, look at it now

3. You hate the fact that Nintendo is having a hard time making HD games, By the way, THEY HAVE NEVER MADE AN HD GAME BEFORE, Obviously it shouldn't come as a surprise they have a hard time. GIve them some slack ffs. None of the Third parties complained, wanna know why? because they have had experience making HD games...

4. The fact 3rd parties aren't jumping on the Wii U... You bought a Nintendo console, what did you expect? Seriously you did own most of their past consoles, you should have easily known what was going to happen.

5. "I regret buying a Wii U now because it's gathering dust" No!!!! Really? i mean if you actually bought games for it instead of canceling pre-orders then maybe it wouldn't.

6. "the playing the full game on the gamepad is also pretty pointless in my view" Opinion, a very 1 sided opinion. I BEARLY ever get the chance to have the T.V to myself, it is one of the most convenient features any console has ever had for me. Ooh and I can actually play my games in my own bed instead of being stuck downstairs. 

 

If you are being serious with all of these things, i have a simple answer, Sell the Wii U and never buy it again. I'm serious if you are having such a bad time with it and pointing out stupid and idiotic things wrong with it, then just sell it. There is no point in having it if you are complain about these things about it. 

 

I was getting all my thoughts together to make a counter-post to alan's "problems" with the Wii U. Well, folks ^ here it is ^. But in all seriousness, good post, Chrop. And alan, now I understand the meaning of the "666", you just love being negative, don't you? :P




#233128 Religious Cartoon About Obediance to God

Posted by Tim on 19 July 2013 - 05:32 AM in The Café

Black magic/witchcraft is forbidden in catholosism/christianity because you have to pray to and offer your soul to a demon (with ceremonies often involving murdering innocents) to aquire such powers.

I am Christian, though I long ago dropped my denomination and dont associate with any church, and my most firm belief is that God alone judges the worth of a man, and everyone else doesnt really know jack in comparison no matter how many robes they wear and can frack off and worry about how they live their life.

That being said, a child wanting to play with a toy wizard who just HAS magical powers because of imagination and fun is a HUGE difference between selling your soul to a hellspawn using innocent lives as a monetary exchange to gain magical power.

And making believe like say harry potter is also FAAAAAAAAAAR more acceptable to me and any sane person than murdering innocent women by the hundreds because you couldnt prove they werent witches, Catholic church.

How many innocent girls did harry potter murder? oh? What about Gandalf? what? None? Wow, huh. Imagine that.

Also, there is no way in HELL I am watching that video, just the still picture in the video player is making my skin crawl. Creepy

 

Yea, that's basically what I was getting at. And if you haven't watched the video yet, don't, because the animations are stiff and terrible, the voice acting is worse that Birdemic, and the "storyline" is just plain stupid.




#233031 Religious Cartoon About Obediance to God

Posted by Tim on 18 July 2013 - 07:48 PM in The Café

I realize this is a Jehovah's Witness video, but being a Christian , I feel like I must discuss, nay, rant about something like this. Now before I start, I will say that everyone, even the creepy mom in this video, is entitled to their own beliefs, and I would never force my belief on anyone else.

Let's begin, shall we?

Oh, where to start...

First things first, as a Christian, I do believe that the practices of witchcraft, or black magic, are evil in the eyes of God. However, in this video, this little fella is excited about a toy wizard, and that it looks cool. Now, aside from the fact that it was just plain cruel for her to shoot him down so quickly like that, all she really had to do was explain that the toy isn't really magical, and to be careful about that kind of stuff. But no. She goes ahead and takes it to whole new levels, leading Caleb to believe that the toy itself is evil, and would make God sad. Furthermore, she feels the need to relate Biblical evidence to help the process along. Terrible. If I was in this situation, it'd be like: Caleb: "Hey dad, (refering to me) look at this!" Me: "What's that?" "It's a warrior wizard!" "Sweet, dude!". And that's that. No mention of evil, Jehovah, or anything Biblical at all. There's just no need. What's funny is, a lot of my Christian friends watch Harry Potter, yet *sarcasm kicks in* SOMEHOW they are able to still keep their main focus on God. Its just something that every Christian has to learn, and trust me, they will learn. Well, that's it for me, I guess. Thanks for sitting through that. Oh and as of July 18, at 8:41 PM, on YouTube, this video has 283,192 views, 811 likes, and 10,855 dislikes. What a ratio! :D




#233596 The creators of Pokemon teases a new project.

Posted by Tim on 20 July 2013 - 07:23 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I already play PMMO.

 

Oh, you shoulda mentioned that :P. I don't play it too much anymore, maybe I should.




#233253 The creators of Pokemon teases a new project.

Posted by Tim on 19 July 2013 - 01:24 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Please be the goddamn Pokemon MMO we've been waiting for! (even though it most likely won't be) 

If it is an MMO, the world will soon crumble and the Wii U will be the dominant console.

 

However, it won't be that MMO. I'm 67% sure. It's probably some other kind of game.

 

 

This is the best I got for ya. Take it or leave it.

Yeah one of my friends had trouble there too. Maybe wimminz really do see purple better.

 

Hehe. To be honest, I'm using an old standard definition monitor, from back when flatscreens became cheap enough to buy. :) That may explain why other people did the test faster though.

 

Yea I'm using an SD moniter, too. Perhaps that explains my score of 15?

Hello Tim, have a great time here. Have not used a PS console for 5yrs.... that an achievement in my books. 

 

It's been quite a few years for me as well, that is, if you don't count the occasional random craving to play old PS2 Crash Bandicoot games... Those games were just.... so good....

Yo guys! My name's Tim, hence my forum name.  I actually don't have a Wii U yet, but it won't be long now.  I've been playing my original Wii console for years, and I've only just recently taken intresting in upgrading consoles.  Anyways, I hope to remain active here, I have quite a bit of experience with forums in general.  Oh, and don't bother telling me to read the rules, done and done.  See you on the forums! :)

 

-Tim

 

EDIT: I may change my forum name to something more exciting in the future, but I'll definately update you guys if I do :D

I take it you're a Nintendo fan. It truely takes one to get a Wii U instead of a PS4 for $50 more at this point.

Hi.

Oh yea, you won't catch me anywhere near a Sony console... Oh no wait I played PS2 for like 5 years... dang.
