VC in Brief: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (N64)

May 19th 2009 8:30AM (Joystiq Nintendo)
Ha, MM is definatley my favorite Zelda but I enjoyed everyone except for the latest one on the DS which I only moderately enjoyed.

CNBC ponders a Grand Theft Auto slowdown

I "think" talk about "hardcore" and "casual" games is idiotic.

It implies that wii gamers and ds gamers aren't serious gamers, that they just dig out their systems for parties and social gaming, and then put them away for the rest of the year.

And only an idiot would think that is the case.

Use the word mature or m-rated instead.

I agree. That is what Sega did. They had a hardware lead with the Genesis and lost it because they jumped to the Saturn too early.

"This, Hinkle, is why NintendoWiiFanboy should have stayed NintendoWiiFanboy, and not become Joystiq Nintendo."
I agree. Xbox fanboys are the most annoying type. We were playing games before they were born, and now they want to tell us who is hardcore and who is casual. What a laugh. Playing one genre, first person shooters, is not hardcore.

Rumor: Sony to unveil new motion-sensing controller at E3

May 1st 2009 2:54PM (Joystiq)
Here is why I think it would be a mistake.

Most people who already bought a wii won't simultaneously buy something that imitates the wii. If Sony wants to have people concurrently buy both systems, then they need to position the PS3 as different from the Wii.

The more the PS3 becomes like the Wii, the more irrelevant it becomes to people who already have a Wii. And that is a lot of people.

That being said, I don't think Sony will do it, and if they do, they won't use it more than just a little bit.

I caution people to be skeptical of rumors like this.

The 360 is considerably weaker than the PS3. The Wii has the least power but the best gameplay and innovation.

MadWorld sells 66K in March, Sega oddly pleased

Apr 18th 2009 11:31AM (Joystiq)
"See, the problem with Madworld is it isn't one of those games you read about on the box, or see a commercial and instantly want. It's one of those titles that will be bought once someone gets to play it at their friends house.

Thus why I think the sales will steadily climb. "
I concur, but that's a substantial marketing mistake. I think MadWorld will eventually do okay.

GTA: Chinatown Wars sells 89K units in March

Once again, you gloss over the detail that Nintedo games tend to sell at a slower but more steady pace.

But this site is starting to turn into an anti-nintendo fanboy website anyways, and of course wouldn't recognize that detail.

It would have sold worse on the 360 because this game was designed for limited processing power and motion controls.

People make these comments too much without knowing the facts.
