a brand new wii with mwaro kart and mario galaxy would only cost you $156 :'(
[spoiler]although amazon ca's prices are a bit higher >.<[/spoiler]
i only have $70 and it's for other stuff
also
>buying a console online
wtf tec lol 5thgrade;
won't really be any more expensive than buying one offline, unless the shipping price is higher than it should be
It's not about the price. 5thgrade;
Why not? befuddlement
it's about waiting 5 days for it to arrive? yeah that part sucks, i'll give you that.
how does it seem like he's trolling at all goonish
honestly each of nintendo's core franchises has been represented well on the wii, and there are plenty of other games for it to care about. it might not be nintendo's best (gamecube was worse faggots), but i see nothing to be dissatisfied about.
ehhh i really don't think so girl;
gamecube may have very few exclusives but as far as simply the amount of good games on it goes, there's a lot more that i enjoy, myself. n_u
even only counting exclusives, i can still think of at least the same amount of gamecube games if not more n_u
i'd vote if i could :3
Well it's no wonder you weren't satisfied. akudood;
SSBB and Super Paper Mario were gifts.
SPM being the game that my sister bought with the wii
whether the wii or gamecube controller is better is debatable, but there's no way the gamecube had nearly as many good exclusives as the wii does >_<'
[spoiler]Mario Sunshine
Luigi's Mansion
Animal Crossing (before it was done to death)
Mario Kart DD > MK Wii
SSBM = SSBB
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 2
Pikmin
Pikmin 2
Billy Hatcher
Custom Robo
Tales of Symphonia
F-zero GX
Some Paper Mario game
Sonic Adventure Battle 2
Can't think of many Wii games that would be on par 5thgrade;[/spoiler]
sonic adventure battle 2 is just a slightly enhanced port - can you really call it an exclusive? in addition, at least pikmin 1 was ported to the wii, as were both metroid prime games
...with shittier control n_u
Oh, come on. No one would blame you for leaving them on the list. That shouldn't count.
i know it shouldn't, but this is tec we're dealing with.
you...
you forgot wind waker wry
[spoiler]Super Mario Galaxy
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Kirby's Epic Yarn
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Monster Hunter Tri
No More Heroes
No More Heroes 2
Metroid Prime 3
Sin and Punishment: Star Successor
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Mario Kart Wii
And to be released:
Skyward Sword
Kirby Returns to Dream Land
Rhythm Heaven Wii
The quantities of our lists are even, but I think the overall average rating for the Wii games I listed is higher than what it would be for those GCN titles. girl;
[/spoiler]
eh, i'd count those remakes as gcn exclusives for the purpose of this thread tbh n_u
okay, i mad (https://boyah.net/forums/Themes/smokes2/images/post/angry.gif)
I
MAD
I've never even implied that those Wiimakes could no longer be considered GCN exclusives. If it's exclusive within its own generation, it counts as exclusive. argh;
I disagree girl;
i don't have any ridiculous vidya rules awdood;
srsly what is that even doing there
i also forgot star fox assault - that game (while not being amazing or anything) is p. good, isn't it?
also baiten kaitos is supposedly good, is that exclusive?
in the end what the critics say doesn't really matter, but even so, i still slightly prefer the wii's library to the gcn's girl;
yes assault is fun, and bk is exclusive with a rating of 81 lol
It's an exclusive.
I won't be commenting on the rest of your question. 5thgrade;
I laughed vigorously. giggle;
i lol'd but HEY it's not THAT old :'(
My list of SNES essentials would be pretty limited, but that's a topic for another [glow=black,2,300]lifetime[/glow]. sillydood;
well yeah, i can't really fault most of you for that because you didn't really have the console
either way, for me, it has probably the biggest library of great games of any console EVER, let alone just nintendo ones
Believe it or not, for me it would actually be the PS3. O_0
honestly it was pretty civil and most of the lists shared many titles we all agreed upon
methinks you're just being nyerpy as usual n_n
nah i've got to agree with him 5thgrade;
or due to not having played them maybe??????????????
either way it's not really a big deal, it's not like we're trying to prove anything in this thread.
at least i hope we're not.
tec totes was girl;
like what
i listed everything either i personally enjoyed or that was well received by wii gaymers and some of my personal favorites def. pulled the average down
i mean i could easily have taken mario galaxy's score and used that alone to compare to the entire list of gcn titles mentioned and used that as evidence but i didn't girl;
I don't disagree. girl;
i'm just kinda mad you didn't include super paper mario :|
or wario land shake it
or fucking nsmb wii goonish
i included nsmb wii :|
oh whoops i ctrl+f'd "new super" confuseddood;
but still :|
it's just that their internal batteries need to be replaced. i need to do this on some of my cartridges. but i need a soldering kit to do that.
everything about this post is retarded
where is donkey kong country returns?????
Hack my Wii and pirate a bunch of games I missed y/n
why wouldn't we? it's a genuinely great game.
Epic Yarn was excellent. I got hooked on it and beat it within days of owning it.
elaborate :|
nintendo themselves released about as many party games for the wii as they did for the gamecube goonish
seriously goonish
oh god i'm not even touching that wall of ignorance snorkel posted
I love my Wii but don't even try to deny that Nintendo was clearly going for a casual audience for the most part.
And Geno I wouldn't say the Wii is the worst system this gen because really I don't even like to compare it to the 360 and PS3, I feel like they're their own separate categories in some way.
yes, even including those, nintendo themselves released about as many party games for the wii as they did for the gamecube
and we're not talking about third party titles here because nintendo had nothing to do with them???!??!?!
not everyone has a ps3. what if someone has a wii and a 360? in that case, those non-exclusive 360 games suddenly become exclusive, because they don't have a ps3. and those games sure as fuck aren't on the wii.
um i didn't say it did, i'm just saying that non-exclusives isn't always an argument AGAINST owning a console or finding satisfaction in it
i thought that was pretty clear from my posts but whatever
so...having its own great exclusives makes the wii suck? the fuck? psyduck;
lol enjoy your online passes
ps3 is free and i'd even rather pay a subscription than use nintendo's shitty system hocuspocus;
Also it's coming out much earlier than the next Xbox or PS3, so hopeful we don't end up with a Dreamcast situation...
[spoiler]In before somebody mentions my prior knowledge of Zelder[/spoiler]
we will.
That would be me. And given a choice I'd by a 360 game first every time. Snorkel is right about the controller, it sucks.
360 controller is the worst :(
PS3 and Classic Controller = thumbup;
More than a bit I think. I think you use motion control to do things like swing and jump. I WANT MY BUTTONS. girl;
the wiimote pretty much just controls what link's arms control.
unfortunately for david girl;
ugh seriously akudood;
because it would be so much better to have the chance to jump at the wrong time or distance rather than letting the game always give you the perfect jump
n_u
so why doesn't the game just play its damn self for me akudood;
[spoiler]oh, right, skyward sword does have a super guide madood;[/spoiler]
has this been confirmed
super mario galaxy 2 and nsmbwii actually play themselves for you lol goowan
Hmmm... to get in the boat in windwaker you pushed the A button. Things like that.
Watch the video. You control so much more with motion. Throwing, rolling, balance and attacking. I WILL BE A SWING FOOL. girl;
Hey that happens to me all the time. WHAT YOU TALKING ABOUT KAZ. n_n
I never played 3d. saddood;
I've yet to see any rolling in this game huhdoodame;
ALSO USING BUTTONS AND STUFF TOO.
Throwing (rolling bombs) and stuff.
I MEANY AS IN 3DS GAMES. doodhuh;
How long did it take you to make that up? :3
You like to question things? doodhuh;
As someone who's obviously not a Wii fanboy and actually not that much of a Zelda fanboy, I am still greatly opposed to this post. hocuspocus;
eh, the "right" thread was originally supposed to be about E3 sillydood;
I think you're just seeing the jaggies all over these screenshots, but the game looks much better in motion. It definitely does have a style to it actually, it's full of pastels and kind of a watercolor look. And it's certainly not underdeveloped, they've been making this game for well over 4 years and they've put a huge about of money and people into the project. Nintendo has said it's the biggest game they've ever worked on. Miyamoto even threatened them that if this wasn't the best Zelda ever they might consider no more Zelda games for a little while.
The Wii is full of bland games made by companies to make a quick buck, but how is the Wii itself generic?
I just see zelda vids huhdoodame;
but other zelda games have more than 2 shields, oot has 3 and so do a few others. still, i agree.
in oot, the mirror shield replaces the hylian shield once you get it. you can't switch back.
same goes for the mirror shield in majora, the mirror shield in alttp (and in this game the red shield is totally optional and even a bit hard to find), and so on
so yeah there are other zeldas with more than two shields, but unfortunately they replace each other.
on a random note, oot's mirror shield was really sexy.
the 7-foot tall fag in the video right before my post
i thought you could switch in oot, but not wind waker
I took as given that the screenshots would misrepresent it a little, I've been following the game to a small extent though. it still doesn't really impress me. Hell some of the Harry Potter movies were the most expensive ever made, nintendo can throw everything they have at it but I'm not sure their creative power is much compared to what it used to be.
I don't really blame Nintendo for falling short with the Wii. it's a sad fact that it's getting harder and harder to be successful in entertainment/media without bland appeal to the masses, just look at popular movies from the past decade... the wii is generic in terms of its appeal to people, it was designed like an apple product (BLAME APPLE). good looks, easy to use for newcomers and some 'revolutionary' gimmicks. nintendo talks up their goal of reinventing how video games are played, but what they're saying is they can't compete with other entertainment companies who have found ways to market video games to the masses without really making real video games.
not saying it won't be fun, it'll just be fun like super mario galaxy is fun compared to super mario 64.
so it'll be even more fun and nothing to complain about???????????????????????????? confuseddood; confuseddood; confuseddood; confuseddood;
I am only sad for what could have been
WHAT REALLY AWESOME
look at the first picture hiro posted
i hope you're right because the galaxy games outdo 64 in every way imaginable goowan
one could even say one dimensional since your Y-axis overshadows your X-axis so much sillydood;
you can only switch shields as a child in oot, but the hylian shield is nearly useless except for when scaling death mountain, because you can't actually hold it like a shield
as an adult you can only use the hylian shield, or the mirror shield which then replaces the hylian
am I the only one who prefers old games saddood;
"my nostalgia prevents me from enjoying great new games i am buttmad" - u
no, there are definitely some older games i prefer to their newer counterparts
But exactly what about 64 makes it better than the Galaxy games? befuddlement
it's not nostalgia, I just like the mechanics of older games more. It feels like you're actually immersed in something instead of prodding a cartoon character along a little path, not even moving them forward, just steering them side to side as they move themselves forward.
i'm just saying I liked playing it more. it felt more like exploring a cohesive world, which I guess is what I like in games. the quirkiness of wii gameplay seems to have led developers away from that aspect of games.
Just because they spend oddles of time and money on a project doesn't make it the best ever. Look at AMD. Miyamoto needs better incentive for his crew. It already takes forever for a new Zelda game to come out. Mario Galaxy games are great and it didn't take that long to create. STOP PUNISHING US FOR THEIR LACK OF CREATIVITY. One of the reasons I am starting to dislike Nintendo is thier attitude towards the gamers who made them who they are.
At the table the other night we were trying to figure out why we were disappointed in Zelda. One of the things we came up with was they lack the feel of the older games. Some things are too predictable and the same old same old. The adventure part of the game seems stale and not as exciting. The feel is different. Which leads to a feeling of disappointment considering the amount of time and money spent. A new method of getting around helps but it seems to just replace an older method. BRING BACK THE EXCITEMENT.
imo of course.
Yes yes yes. This. lubdoods;
I'm also pretty sure Miyamoto is only a consultant on the game, the team isn't his. But still, threatening to stop Zelda for a while is pretty good incentive to make a good game, it's not really a punishment for us if we decide we don't like what they make anymore and they move onto something we do like.
I get what you mean though, and it really just boils down to the Zelda games getting stale. They haven't introduced much new to the series in a very long time, and there just isn't much interesting and new to be excited about. That said, it looks like they're actually trying to bring some cool changes with this game, while combining all the things we liked about previous games.
And it is a little bit nostalgia. The games are better, but part of the reason is because of the impact they made at thte time vs the nonexistent impact zelda games have made recently.
I should of said Zelda team. The team working on it. What ever, I'm not good explaining things.
Maybe Miyamoto needs to be more involved to put back in some of the old feeling. I agree the games are graphically better and even some of the game play is awesome. But I miss the reason why I loved Zelda to start with. I still loved the Mario games and think they have evolved in a way that doesn't disappoint. I wish Zelda was the same.
Five years is too long to wait for a new game. imo The time I talked to someone from Nintendo about it they said, "We don't want to just pump out games for the sake of having games out there. We are going for quality". EXCUSE ME?
do you even play video games
But we still never play together :(

No. Not at all. What's a "wide variety" to you? 12 games?
I won't say it's got no games, but I can think of a LOT more games on previous Nintendo consoles that I enjoy than I can for the Wii. Especially the SNES's huge library.

There are a few games I enjoy very much, but overall I'm going to say not really. There's just not as much to play on it, and while I played it a good amount when it first came out it kind of just lost steam and I play my PS2 or other older games more often. I definitely got more enjoyment out of the Gamecube.
The Wii hasn't been terrible for me, just underwhelming.

melee
pikmin 2 (only pikmin 1 was ported to wii, right)
wind waker
rogue leader
sunshine
paper mario 2
luigi's mansion
double dash
tales of symphonia
whereas my wii exclusives list is:
galaxy 1
galaxy 2
kirby's epic yarn
donkey kong country returns
no more heroes 2
brawl
metroid prime 3
mario kart wii
kirby returns to dream land (future release)
skyward sword (future release)
i don't know if i can call one more game "a lot more," and even then, there are a lot of non-exclusives that are BEST on the gamecube, like the metroid prime games, pikmin, re4 (sorta), mgs1, soul calibur ii, and so on.
of course the gamecube versions have better control but still
anyway, i guess my gamecube exclusives list is:
melee
pikmin 2 (only pikmin 1 was ported to wii, right)
wind waker
rogue leader
sunshine
paper mario 2
luigi's mansion
double dash
tales of symphonia
whereas my wii exclusives list is:
galaxy 1
galaxy 2
kirby's epic yarn
donkey kong country returns
no more heroes 2
brawl
metroid prime 3
mario kart wii
kirby returns to dream land (future release)
skyward sword (future release)

sonic adventure battle 2 is just a slightly enhanced port - can you really call it an exclusive? in addition, at least pikmin 1 was ported to the wii, as were both metroid prime games

GC exclusives are not nullified by a future box which just took their programming and made it its own. That's like saying Sonic the Hedgehog wasn't a Sega Genesis exclusive because it's been re-released on different systems since then. The games designed for the Wii exclusively have been largely disappointing

but yeah i actually forgot about nsmbwii, that's a great game.
honestly even if we disagree on which is better, i HOPE we're all smart enough to say that the gamecube is a lot better than people make it out to be. i honestly love that little cube, and i personally find some of the best games on it to be better than ANYTHING on the wii.
namely, wind waker and metroid prime are two of my absolute favorite games ever.

Ok, our lists compared via scores on Metacritic
92 Mario Sunshine
78 Luigi's Mansion
96 LOZ: Windwaker
87 Animal Crossing
87 Mario Kart DD
92 SSBM = SSBB
97 Metroid Prime

90 Pikmin 2
71 Billy Hatcher
65 Custom Robo
86 Tales of Symphonia
89 F-zero GX
87 Some Paper Mario game
73 Sonic Adventure Battle 2
Ok, so I got a little overzealous on a couple games (I still stand by Luigi's Mansion), but overall I don't see your huge gap... Those Wii titles come out to an average of 88.111 while the GC titles' average is 85.6875 although that is a result from having 7 more game scores including a 71, 65, and 73

In my experience the only good games for the Wii (in my opinion) are: Resident Evil 4, Kirby's Epic Yarn, NSMBW, Monster Hunter Tri, Mario Galaxy, Mario Galaxy 2, TP, Super Mario All-Stars, Brawl (to an extent), Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Okami, and the Matroid Trilogy.

It's the worst console this generation. While it has amazing games, there are only a few of them. The 360 and PS3 both have a large library of really good games, but Nintendo decided to appeal to the casual gaming audience for the Wii and focused mainly on party titles.

I definitely wasn't satisfied with the Wii, my earliest encounter with it was trying to play Twilight Princess. I thought, "wtf this is retarded" and played it on GameCube instead. Maybe I just didn't try hard enough but I don't understand how you can be quick and tactile enough with the wiimote to make playing a real game work... and I feel as a result of that most wii games are 'dumbed down', since they're made with the motion sensing aspect in mind. and that ain't true to vidya games in my mind
Same sentiments as everyone else as to the launch titles and popular games, they're all gimmicky party games and not even much fun imo (just want to add that I fucking hate mario party).
also it's pretty useless as a media device, maybe the classic game market is kind of cool but everything else they tried to integrate has no appeal to me at all because it's done so poorly. I get why nintendo made the whole 'wii' idea what it is but I wish they'd get back to their roots and make some real games, all this simulation shit isn't interesting to me.
because I like buying game consoles to enjoy some quality gaming and my idea of quality gaming isn't waving my arms at the screen to control some quirky motion sensor integrated gameplay (wiimote is also stupidly unusable as a traditional controller, even with any of the attachments, which also are retarded). I want some menu-driven rpg action I can control with my thumbs, and I definitely don't want to move while I'm enjoying my vidyas doodthing;
overall I'm not much for console gaming in this new and foreign generation anyway. keyboard n mouse is about all I'll put up with anymore.

And Geno I wouldn't say the Wii is the worst system this gen because really I don't even like to compare it to the 360 and PS3, I feel like they're their own separate categories in some way.

I like my Wii just fine and most of the games that I bought for it are pretty good and fun. Though I will say that when I got my 360 I pretty much quit playing Wii for a couple years because I was pretty much playing Halo 3 everyday, and then Oblivion also took up a lot of time and also Fallout 3.

i don't think realism is an inherent problem with zelda, i just think it was poorly executed in twilight princess because they couldn't really manage a balance of realism and un-realism and it looks just...weird
in general i would prefer more stylish/silly things like wind waker and skyward sword though, as i just find it to lend itself more to being creative and original

not everyone has a ps3. what if someone has a wii and a 360? in that case, those non-exclusive 360 games suddenly become exclusive, because they don't have a ps3. and those games sure as fuck aren't on the wii.
That would be me. And given a choice I'd by a 360 game first every time. Snorkel is right about the controller, it sucks.

I like the 360 controller. But never used the PS ones.
I'm afraid of how good Zelda will be cause of using the motion control to do everything. >.< It will either be too hard or too easy. girl;

I'm not quite sure how to explain how I feel about it... Twilight Princess was already a little bit of the 'meh', but still the last in the line of cool Zelda games to me (everything afterward has been shit).
This just looks underdone, underdeveloped or something. Every piece of graphics don't have the sharp edge that the best Zelda games have had (think about OoT, yes the quality of graphics was comparatively poor, but it had a style). The style of this just looks like Windows Vista or something. It's generic. The Wii is generic. Zelda is becoming generic. FUCK THE PHONIES

really liking how we're already seeing four different shields. one thing i always thought would be cool to add to zelda is more variety for swords, shields, tunics, etc. to pick and choose your own combination for whatever situation you find yourself in, or just personal taste.
sort of like how in 3ddgh you can collect quite a lot of different swords to choose from
even if there are only those four shields, it's pretty cool that there's even more than two. i hope they don't replace each other, and that you can switch between them freely.

Quote from: Reisen on October 14, 2011, 07:08:17 PMfrom my understanding you can switch between them at will, and there should be more than just these 4. you also have to repair them, as i mentioned earlier. it seems like there's only 2 swords in this game, but it also looks like you can use enemies' weapons like in wind waker, which i always liked.

in oot, the mirror shield replaces the hylian shield once you get it. you can't switch back.
same goes for the mirror shield in majora, the mirror shield in alttp (and in this game the red shield is totally optional and even a bit hard to find), and so on
so yeah there are other zeldas with more than two shields, but unfortunately they replace each other.
on a random note, oot's mirror shield was really sexy.

I took as given that the screenshots would misrepresent it a little, I've been following the game to a small extent though. it still doesn't really impress me. Hell some of the Harry Potter movies were the most expensive ever made, nintendo can throw everything they have at it but I'm not sure their creative power is much compared to what it used to be.
I don't really blame Nintendo for falling short with the Wii. it's a sad fact that it's getting harder and harder to be successful in entertainment/media without bland appeal to the masses, just look at popular movies from the past decade... the wii is generic in terms of its appeal to people, it was designed like an apple product (BLAME APPLE). good looks, easy to use for newcomers and some 'revolutionary' gimmicks. nintendo talks up their goal of reinventing how video games are played, but what they're saying is they can't compete with other entertainment companies who have found ways to market video games to the masses without really making real video games.

you can only switch shields as a child in oot, but the hylian shield is nearly useless except for when scaling death mountain, because you can't actually hold it like a shield
as an adult you can only use the hylian shield, or the mirror shield which then replaces the hylian

it's not nostalgia, I just like the mechanics of older games more. It feels like you're actually immersed in something instead of prodding a cartoon character along a little path, not even moving them forward, just steering them side to side as they move themselves forward.

i'm just saying I liked playing it more. it felt more like exploring a cohesive world, which I guess is what I like in games. the quirkiness of wii gameplay seems to have led developers away from that aspect of games.

I sort of agree with snorkel about 64 vs Galaxy. I don't know why, because although Galaxy is great it just wasn't particularly fresh, I don't find any levels particularly memorable, etc. Plus 64 was a whole world you could explore, while Galaxy really was a lot more linear.

Just because they spend oddles of time and money on a project doesn't make it the best ever. Look at AMD. Miyamoto needs better incentive for his crew. It already takes forever for a new Zelda game to come out. Mario Galaxy games are great and it didn't take that long to create. STOP PUNISHING US FOR THEIR LACK OF CREATIVITY. One of the reasons I am starting to dislike Nintendo is thier attitude towards the gamers who made them who they are.
At the table the other night we were trying to figure out why we were disappointed in Zelda. One of the things we came up with was they lack the feel of the older games. Some things are too predictable and the same old same old. The adventure part of the game seems stale and not as exciting. The feel is different. Which leads to a feeling of disappointment considering the amount of time and money spent. A new method of getting around helps but it seems to just replace an older method. BRING BACK THE EXCITEMENT.
imo of course.

I'm also pretty sure Miyamoto is only a consultant on the game, the team isn't his. But still, threatening to stop Zelda for a while is pretty good incentive to make a good game, it's not really a punishment for us if we decide we don't like what they make anymore and they move onto something we do like.
I get what you mean though, and it really just boils down to the Zelda games getting stale. They haven't introduced much new to the series in a very long time, and there just isn't much interesting and new to be excited about. That said, it looks like they're actually trying to bring some cool changes with this game, while combining all the things we liked about previous games.
And it is a little bit nostalgia. The games are better, but part of the reason is because of the impact they made at thte time vs the nonexistent impact zelda games have made recently.

I should of said Zelda team. The team working on it. What ever, I'm not good explaining things.
Maybe Miyamoto needs to be more involved to put back in some of the old feeling. I agree the games are graphically better and even some of the game play is awesome. But I miss the reason why I loved Zelda to start with. I still loved the Mario games and think they have evolved in a way that doesn't disappoint. I wish Zelda was the same.
Five years is too long to wait for a new game. imo The time I talked to someone from Nintendo about it they said, "We don't want to just pump out games for the sake of having games out there. We are going for quality". EXCUSE ME?
