#89305 What Games Have You Sunk The Most Hours Into?

Posted by Jakester897 on 21 June 2012 - 07:17 PM in General Gaming

Honestly, I put many hours into so many games that by now, I have lost track of them all. I'll try anyway, though.

Pokemon Diamond
Diddy Kong Racing
OoT
Ratchet and Clank 3
Pokemon FireRed
Banjo-Kazooie
Any non-Sunshine Mario platformer
Super Smash Bros.
Wii Sports, amazingly enough
League of Legends
Awesomenauts
Super Mario RPG
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Mario Kart (except Super)
Mario Power Tennis
Super Mario Strikers
Pikmin. All of it.
I want to say Ace Attorney, but it's only a lot if you combine all the games.
MapleStory
Dungeon Fighter Online
Team Fortress 2

I haven't much of a social life.



#89302 WiiU region free petition

Posted by Jakester897 on 21 June 2012 - 07:05 PM in Wii U Hardware

No. Just no.



#89169 Nintendo direct today

Posted by Jakester897 on 21 June 2012 - 05:48 AM in Wii U Hardware

It's weird. The Wii and DS feel... old.



#88296 Crouching tiger, hidden introduction

Posted by Jakester897 on 17 June 2012 - 01:57 PM in Introduction Central

Well, it's been a while since I've seen someone with that allergy.
Don't worry. You're welcome here no matter what!



#88294 Epic uses for the Wii U gamepad! (mockups and concepts)

Posted by Jakester897 on 17 June 2012 - 01:55 PM in Wii U Games and Software

That, my friend, is the very definition of an epic use for the GamePad.



#88292 What happens if the PS4 and 720 are only 2-4x more powerful than Wii U?

Posted by Jakester897 on 17 June 2012 - 01:25 PM in General Gaming

A lot of people are saying that the least powerful consoles have won these last two generations.
While that's true, nobody knows if this will change. Notably, a lot of people traded their Wii for a PS3 or 360 just because of Call of Duty.

As much as I'd hate to say it, nothing matters anymore in these console wars except having the definitive version of CoD. MW3 was the biggest release in history, and unless people wise up, nothing will change in that respect. It doesn't matter how many good experiences you can get from a console; if CoD isn't one of them, we lose all of those cassies.



#88291 Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer!

Shin Megami Tensei!
How do I shot grenade?



#87932 can we still watch and play games on gamepad

Posted by Jakester897 on 15 June 2012 - 04:30 PM in Wii U Hardware

Wasn't that the whole point of the console? I definitely think it should be a feature, so it'd be disappointing to see any developer remove it.



#87929 Favorite Genre

Posted by Jakester897 on 15 June 2012 - 04:20 PM in The Café

Music: Classic Rock, with a moderate country flair.
Movies: Anything without a focus on relationships and feelings and blah blah blah.
Shows: I don't watch much TV. I guess I'll watch whatever's on.
Video Games: Adventure and puzzle. Platforming elements are welcome. I also have a penchant for strategic action games, Advance Wars, and real-time strategy games.



#87697 People think third party games don't sell on Nintendo systems?

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 11:41 AM in General Gaming

To answer the question, yes.

And what in the world is wrong with the y-axis? Over what period of time is this?



#87695 Hurt and Heal: Nintendo Characters

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 11:23 AM in Roleplay and Forum Games

Damn, there needs to be another task.

Hurt: Demise
Heal: Olimar



#87677 Yea or Nay: Non-Specific Action Figure?

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 10:23 AM in Wii U Hardware

I think it'll be used as a default NFC communicator, like the ? AR card on the 3DS.



#87670 sony for wii U

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 09:48 AM in General Gaming

Nothing I haven't heard before from Sony, really. They said that about the Wii, and look what happened.

#87667 Miyamoto is interested in making an FPS

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 09:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

So he's saying that there is stuff to be done with the first-person perspective besides military shooters?

My god, it's like he read my mind!



#87660 Nintendo preparing a new Legend of Zelda title for the 3DS

Posted by Jakester897 on 14 June 2012 - 09:24 AM in General Gaming

Mah broskis, I must say that I liked Link to the Past better than any 3D Zelda. Go ahead and stone me, but I want a sequel to that.



#87524 Retro to busy to work on Zelda

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 05:33 PM in Wii U Games and Software

It is a squeal to a game that THEY made.

Yes, that was quite the squeal.

Either way, there are only four possibilities I see. In order of least likely to most likely:
  • Metroid (because they just made one)
  • New IP (it's Retro Studios)
  • Star Fox (If you count handhelds, Star Fox still existed last generation [Assault])
  • F-Zero (because it works with the controller and all that crap)



#87517 Wii U Triggers: Analog or Digital?

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 05:23 PM in Wii U Hardware

They're probably digital, but hell if I care. I only play the "kiddy" racing games where you press a button and the vehicles accelerates. I have tried out those realistic ones, and I find myself pressing the trigger all the way down regardless.



#87513 Do you think Nintendo should buy back Rare

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 05:18 PM in General Gaming

Rare was my childhood and I am only 13. Great company, that Rare.

Yes, Rare is no longer the same company, but did you guys ever consider that buying Rare would allow for some great Virtual Console support?



#87508 Retro to busy to work on Zelda

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 05:11 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Retro working on Zelda? What kind of world do we live in where it has to be clarified that they are not?

Anyway, I think its Star Fox but I hope its F-Zero. Or Battalion Wars, but that's just a pipe dream.



#87493 People think third party games don't sell on Nintendo systems?

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 04:12 PM in General Gaming

Shovelware, maybe?

Anyway, they used to sell a lot. Then MW2 came and convinced everyone to switch consoles. At least, that's what happened where I am.



#87356 So, Uh- I think I might want a PS4? [Wii U Hardware stuff]

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 09:52 AM in Wii U Hardware

If this is true (and it appears it is), Nintendo kinda sucks because they just cut their employees bonus 20% from last year because of "financial troubles" to the company.

The graph only goes up to 2010.
This also explains why the location of Microsoft's and Sony's lines appear off. Quite a lot can happen in two years.

As for Microsoft, I don't know if they are currently in the red or black. But I know Microsoft isn't on the verge of being in money trouble. At least not yet.

They will never have financial problems, unless they screw something up pretty badly. After all, there is a good chance that your operating system is Microsoft Windows.



#87349 Rabbids Land E3 gameplay.

Posted by Jakester897 on 13 June 2012 - 09:29 AM in Wii U Games and Software

This should have already been done on the Wii. I don't think there was anything that really used the controller.



#86846 Miyamoto Tested Out Pikmin On Wii, Nintendo 3DS And Nintendo DS

Posted by Jakester897 on 11 June 2012 - 07:43 PM in General Gaming

Pikmin 3 seems to be based on collecting treasure, but from what Miyamoto said, there might be a plot about Olimar's absence.

Pikmin 3DS should be about what's going on with Olimar and maybe Louie during the events of Pikmin 3.
In other words, the games would have parallel plots.

I think I blew my own mind with that idea.



#86489 [For Fun] If you could only pick 1 of the following which would you pick?

Posted by Jakester897 on 10 June 2012 - 06:18 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Diddy Kong Racing 2, for sure. The first game was so freakin' sweet, and all we got was a mediocre DS remake.



#86451 Wii U packaging and game-case mockup

Posted by Jakester897 on 10 June 2012 - 02:47 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Not bad. Not spectacular, but not bad. I have no taste for these things, though, so I wouldn't blame you if you ignored my opinion.
