Zelda music nails the golden ratio

Mar 3rd 2007 11:10PM (Joystiq)
The only thing I know about the golden ratio is what Donald Duck taught me in "Donald in Mathmagic Land". Which is an awesome video.

Today's Princeliest game video: Prince of Persia Wii - Levers & Ledges [UPDATE 2]

Mar 2nd 2007 2:40AM (Joystiq)
I like how the little 'control demonstration' doesn't seem to make any sense. Did they mix up the videos or something?

Also, more developers need to learn that the Wiimote and Nunchuku aren't the only options. Why not support the classic pad as well? (not sure if this game does or not). It's got to be easier to map the controls to the classic controller than it is to use motions.

Wiicade opens up remote buttons for Flash games

Oh.. my... god... YES. I work with Flash a lot and I've been idlely making a game designed for Wii in Flash. If this works it'll make sure it uses this. (If I ever complete it)

Blowin' on Nintendo games

Feb 28th 2007 12:58AM (Joystiq)
I used to use alcohol to clean the carts, and that worked, I also used to blow the carts before that. But for nearly 100% success I just opened the NES and pried the connectors up. Now it works perfectly.

Radio Allergy delayed, now 'Wii Compatible'

I love F-Zero GX. I've been playing that a little recently in combination with a shiney new Wavebird.

Oh, and I also played some Metroid Prime, another great game.

The Joystiq Weekend: February 17-18. 2007

Dang, I sent in to win one of those balls a while ago. YOU STOLE IT FROM ME! Wahhhh! Wait... you can buy those? *off to eBay*

Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles unveiled for PSP

Perhaps I only speak for a smaller percentage of people here, but it's just my opinion.

I really think they should have just gone with high quality, well drawn and animated 2D sprites. This 3D model stuff looks worse than the original to me.

Oh, and by the way. I'm not just saying this because it's on PSP. If this was on any other platform I'd be saying the same thing. I hate it when developers go mediocre 3D when they could have gone with really nice sprites.

Europe's 'This is living' PS3 ad

Jan 14th 2007 12:21AM (Joystiq)
The message I got from it:

The PS3 is probably not ideal for stacking contests. Oh, and I want pie as well... and maybe a Stack Mat so I can time myself stacking pies.

Nyko's Wii-chargeable station

Jan 9th 2007 1:54PM (Joystiq)
I just use AA Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. I had a set of 8 old ones laying around and a charger which holds 4 at once. You can play while the other ones charge.

My brother bought the same type of batteries but new ones, they obviously work a lot better than my worn out ones. Check around places like Wally World. They usually have some sort of deal where if you buy an 8 pack you get the charger free or something.

Today's ye-haw-iest game video: Wii Play - Cow Run

Jan 6th 2007 12:47PM (Joystiq)
I think I'll hold out for WarioWare. It's only what, about one and a half weeks away? Now that's mini-game madness!

As someone already said, Wii Play is basically just a bunch of little games that are designed to train you on how to use the Wii Remote. I mean, the thing comes with an extra controller.

If I was looking to pick up another controller I'd might as well get the little mini-game collection while I'm at it.
