Nintendo launches new web game, suggests you play on Wii browser
Apr 7th 2007 8:03AM (Joystiq Nintendo)Too bad, the game itself was pretty decent.
PAL Red Steel progressive scan mandatory?

Zelda retrospective: The end, my only friend, the end ...
Nov 21st 2006 1:26PM (Joystiq)The Zelda series is simply a series of games that share a number of elements, including bits and pieces of the plot. Personally, I think that's even cooler than one big continuing story.

Oct 24th 2006 1:50PM (Joystiq)Wii to support single friend code per system?
Oct 1st 2006 12:12PM (Joystiq)"...when the Wii is online, it transforms itself into a globally active bond between yourself and your friends. For example, if you were to purchase a new game, you'd have the option of notifying your friends, via their individual Wii Message Boards, that you now own this game, by a simple "Yes/No" option that will pop up."
This of course applies to the Wii Message Board, not specific games, but for such a system to work, it would seem that it would be easiest to have one identification code for each console. Seeing as we know this already (it's the same for the DS, except you don't use it - you only use the Friend Code which is generated from the DS ID and the specific game cartridge ID), it seems pretty stupid by Nintendo if they go along with the same Friend Code system they used for the DS (considering everybody hates it). But, you know, Ninty have done some pretty stupid things in the past.
I don't see why they couldn't use some kind of search function. Say, if the system lets you specify certain attributes (name, country/city, games owned etc.), you could be allowed to search for these attributes. If you don't want to fill in the fields, fine, but don't count on being found. This would pretty much be the makings of an online community, but based on what we've seen, isn't that what they're trying to accomplish anyway?
Jack Thompson becomes boring
Sep 27th 2006 2:46PM (Joystiq)I mean; you have a situation where people have been put through a great deal of suffering and emotional trauma. They need to be felt sorry for. But how have they earned $600 million dollars? Sure, cut 'em som slack, but $600 million?
Now, what do you think Jacko is in it for? The rightful claims of the families of these victims, or a nice, big, fat 10% of those $600 million?
Nice system you guys got there...
