Move over Vii: introducing the 7-in-1 console

May 9th 2008 5:06PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
The Wii runs 19 bit graphics, then? Hold on one second, let me get you something.

Hope that helps.

Kid Icarus to smolder with generic rage?

May 9th 2008 5:03PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
On a scale from 1 to 5, I rate that concept art a *headdesk*.

I liked his brawl model. It was a perfect step up from the rosy-cheeked Pit of the NES era. Keep in mind that Brawl wasn't a Kid Icarus game, it just had Pit in it. Now imagine jumping straight from NES (or Gameboy, they were very similar) Pit to this concept art. It would be too extreme of a change. Pit's design in brawl is probably the best imaginable place to continue the series from.

IGN pretty much confirms Kid Icarus

I got KI for the VC, and, aside from the fact that I CAN'T BEAT IT, it's pretty fun.

Now, I have three different responses depending on how this goes.

Kid Icarus Wii being developed by Nintendo or Retro:
HELLZ ------> THE YES

" developed by Factor 5: H...hooray?

" developed by Platinum Games (a.k.a. Seeds, formerly Clover):
God's existence has been proven, world peace a reality, and collective happiness creates a beam of pure joy which destroys two of Jupiter's moons

Zero Punctuation reviews fanboys

May 8th 2008 12:02AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I actually see a number of his reviews as middle of the road. Of course, he always seems to be highly opinionated, but I think that might be due to his stylistic exaggeration. That is to say that I think his "love it or hate it" approach is simply a result of hyperbole, and that he usually raises pros and cons fairly where they should be.

Honestly, it's like watching the Daily Show and Colbert Report for the news: it'll make you laugh more, but directness and fairness do have to be sacrificed.

Earthbound gets rated by the ESRB

I built a Ness statue out of mine. I'm going to use the left over ones to hit the neighbor children, of course.

The DS Life: Motherly love

May 1st 2008 12:46AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I'm completely getting my girlfriend pregnant so I can have an infant on which to support my DS.

Just.....just in case you're reading this, Katie, I'm kidding. Please do not kill me.

Man chats about his $15k NES game

May 1st 2008 12:43AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Yes, yes, 15k is a lot to blow on an old, yet rare, NES cartridge. But (almost) everyone has a hobby, and Baker's is obviously collecting video games. He could have used the money for something else, something that would seem more useful to someone else, but why bother if that game is what makes him happy? Happiness is probably the best thing anyone could hope to get in exchange for their monetary wealth.

Hell, by comparison, a resident of a third world country would wonder why we spend hundreds of dollars on video games when we could be buying food to feed ourselves in the future. It's all perspective.

Nintendo Power promises the moon

Hoping for Earthbound of Majora's Mask. Will settle for Castlevania. DO NOT CARE ABOUT DISGAEA.

Only cuz I'm terrible at strategy games, though.

Real Bowser stalks our nightmares

I know what a sheegoth is by memory?
