World of Goo-d news for Europe

Nov 12th 2008 10:44AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Can somebody elaborate me 2d boy's reasons for the final Q&A (Q: i am european and i am still angry with you. A: Thank you, user000299174, for contacting...) ?

Wii Warm Up: Dead Rising (again)

Nov 9th 2008 11:43AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I really like the second paragraph.

What is wrong with Capcom? They weren't shy of supporting the Dreamcast, Saturn or Gamecube. Why not more optimized (all original) Wii games? T

Wii is 'most expensive board game on Earth'

Nov 8th 2008 8:01AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
This surprised me as well.
I don't quite know what to think of this.

First, he started that "board game" statement with "I think on one hand..." which doesn't make it come over as an insult.
Then he mentions that people might "graduate upwards". Not the optimum choice of words as "graduate" has a positive ring to it, as if it's a good idea to move on from (the poor) Wii to the superior other consoles.

Why, of all the companies, is a SEGA guy telling this? They had some great success on the system. (M&S @ Olympic Games, lightgun games, Secret Rings) and have two much anticipated Wii games in the pipeline.

This reminds me a bit of Reggie taunting Monolith Software via his Disaster: DoC comments

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom boxart will look fantastic on no American store shelves

While wikipedia is often frowned upon, I think this here gives you all the information you need (it sure did for me):

Disaster: Days of Nobody Buying It

Nov 5th 2008 5:08AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I have to agree with this.
Some might get this in the wrong throat, but especially Wii gamers seem to sit around all day and wait for the commercials to come knocking on their door.

Looking for information about games is so easy nowadays. Within 5 minutes (no hyperbole) any gamer can gather enough impressions, gameplay bits and screenshots. Gaming site mamberships, youtube or nicovideo are free, to name just a few examples. Most sites also offer release lists.

I'm rather disappointed by my fellow European gamers.
Were are the so called "hardcore" gamers now? I'm not calling out the families that got the system for Wii Fit and Wii Sports (not their job to get the game).
I'm calling out the people that got Zelda, Resident Evil 4, Smash Bros and Mario Galaxy on the first day and are constantly complaining about "no new hardcore games on Wii". (Of course this doesn't count for gamers that either can't afford it or don't care for the action genre)

TGS08: Sonic Unleashed and unbelievably cool

Oct 10th 2008 1:00PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Hooray for DIMPS!
November will be a good month.

TGS08: Klonoa: Video Link to Phantomile

Oct 10th 2008 10:02AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
This is exactly what I like: happy games with blue skies and mascot characters :D

Wii Warm Up: Plugging it in

Oct 10th 2008 10:00AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I like it this way. I wouldn't mind a pocket under the drum to hide the remote though.

I am not really in favor of using the USB port or Gamecube Controller sockets for this, as they might get cut in a future hardware revision. I know that Nintendo stands for backward compatibility, but still...

Virtually Overlooked: Castlevania Bloodlines (Genesis)

Oct 10th 2008 5:11AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
*now playing: the_sinking_old_sanctuary.mp3*

This is one of the Castlevania games I played long after Konami changed the overall forumla. I have no idea why I didn't play it back in the 16bit era days, not enough money and too many other good games perhaps.
Thanks to this article, I want to play it again.

I also feel it's among the best Castlevania games, in pretty much every aspect aside from the graphics. (blame Konami, not the system; check out at Ranger X stages 2 and 3 for similar themed, yet way better looking graphics).

The skeletons look kind of goofy in this one. Was this intentional?

Tatsunoko vs. Roll

Oct 9th 2008 4:39PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Rōru-chaaaaaaan!

Classic Roll is fine, Marvel VS Capcom 2 also had a mix of Classic and Legends characters. And I just like her better.
