Chronojam posted:Alright, that explains things a little better. It probably seemed to run just fine since you never owned the real game and wouldn't notice missing elements or effects, wrong colors, transparency flaws. 1964 or honestly even Corn was the emulator of choice back in '02 or '03 for Mario 64 since UltraHLE had several glitches. I was talking about when UltraHLE came out in 1999. I regularly played the original at a friend's house and could make direct comparisons (the emulated version was preferred due to the higher resolution on my old Voodoo). I realize emulation is rarely a 1:1 experience, but I just have to disagree with you about the level of quality in that era or the effort required on Nintendo's part.

I remember it only played 15 or 20 games on a specific Voodoo card until you had a Glide wrapper. I think I played Ocarina of Time on it, which looked great in the first hour or so but it was pretty downhill once you had to go anywhere else. Either way I felt dirty playing an emulator of a current console.

greatn posted:It's not about liking Madden, it's about why would you get the WiiU version when there are almost certainly better versions? Ditto with Injustice. A theoretical Madden 14 is not going to match either other version in online for sure. Jet Set Jettison posted:I want a multiplayer game to be released that really plays up the whole "asynchronous gameplay" thing. I always though a Dungeons & Dragons game would fit really well with the WiiU, if the "dungeon master" has the wiiu pad and gets to place monsters/traps/hazards while everyone else fights stuff and so on. thefncrow posted:Man, I got the numbers wrong. That kinda changes the analysis some. But, yes, rumor is that there was to be a second team handling TW15, and then 16 would be the normal guys with 2 years of time. Supposedly, the second team plan died as a cost cutting measure when those EA layoffs came down, but EA didn't assign TW15 back to the usual team when they did this, signaling that there just might not be a TW15. http://kotaku.com/ea-sports-also-hurts-after-a-rough-week-of-painful-cuts-483860247 quote:For if a series like Tiger Woods PGA Tour is put on hiatus, even for a year, then everything is on the table. I have learned, from persons with knowledge of the series' development, that Tiger Woods PGA Tour 15 is not happening. On any platform. EA's plan was to outsource that edition of the game, to give the in-house team two years to make Tiger Woods 16, taking advantage of all the PS4 and the next Xbox would have to offer. When CEO John Riccitiello gave his resignation last month, that plan was scrapped as a cost-saving move. The game hasn't been reassigned to the Tiger Woods team, either. Some of its personnel already have been sent to other teams in the EA Tiburon studio for the time being. greatn posted:I definitely an looking forward to Tiger Woods 15 or 16 or 17 or whenever the hell they get the next one out. Virtual golf is so relaxing and Mario Golf just hasn't been able to keep up so far.

That much is obvious at this point. I actually had yet another "I thought it was just a controller thing for the Wii" moment the other night with a friend, and he's a fairly avid Nintendo guy who buys the new ones to play the new Mario/Zelda/etc games. He didn't even know it was out, much less that it was it's own console. He thought it was just another peripheral.

How would you do a Nintendo football game? I imagine you'd give each main franchise character their own team or something, but that's a lot of players per team. Would each have different mooks filling out non quarterback roles? Football has a lot more players on field than most other Nintendo sports games, even their Soccer is 3v3, which you can't really do with football. Mario could have toads, Bowser Koopa Troopas, but who would Luigi get? I'd like to see what they come up with to get 11 men per team. Maybe each franchise gets a team. Link, Zelda, Groose, Tingle, Koume, Kotake, Impa, A Goron, a Deku, a Zora, and The Postman all on a team vs. Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toad, Toadette, Yoshi, Rosalina, Professor Whatshisname, the guy you race in Sunshine, a Pianta Meanwhile over in another stadium, you'd have Bowser, Dry Bones, Koopa Troopa, Bowser Jr., Chargin Chuck(obviously), Ludwig, Wendy, Kamek, Hammer Bro, Lakitu, the fat lightning bolt guy vs Wario, Waluigi, Syrup, the Wario Ware Crew That... would probably be way too ambitious for a mascot sports game.

They could just do the All Pro Football thing and just make a normal non-NFL Football game. Since they wont have to worry about competition from Madden, it might actually sell this time! Edit: Actually, nows the time! Nintendo should throw money at 2K Sports to make a new All pro Football for them.

It could work if they did 5 a side football. If they wanted to use the full amount of players, linemen would have to be generic characters.

Also Mario's team would have to be called the Super Mario All-Stars™

Soccer was 5 on 5 (plus goalie) from what I can tell, so it wouldn't be that different. I think 6 or 7 like Blitz is about as low as you can go, QB/LB, 3 WRs/DBs, 2 or 3 lineman. Main character would be the QB, and/or pick a star for your own team at each position (captain/QB + WR + lineman) with whatever generic guys filling in the rest of the spots. And Luigi would field a team of ghosts

Ciaphas posted:Goomba linebackers, Toad safeties and Koopa special teams The Strikers series is already fantastic. I want it to be their main core sport and a new game should come out every 1/2 years. Strikers Charged on the Wii..man I think the only games I invested more time into were Smash Bros and Monhun and not by much let me tell you. It had major balance issues and people hacked it to poo poo later and even that wasn't enough to soil how loving FUN it is. Please bring it back on the U Nintendo.  EDIT: God drat the balance though. There were characters that could 100% stonewall you, and a good goal shooting stat pretty much meant there was a 50/50 chance the goalie (which is AI-controlled) would let the ball through. The AI cheated worse than in any other game I've ever seen, I'm talking Mortal Kombat II levels of bullshit. All of this wasn't enough to make me return it. extremebuff fucked around with this message at 01:58 on May 3, 2013 |

Wait, what about the Wii U's launch lineup was decent? Most of their planned games for launch didn't make it and they only had New Super Marios Bros. U and Nintendo Land to their name as good unique games. Any of their remaining games have already been released for a good while, are shovelware, or have very minor changes for the Wii U version (AKA Arkham City and Tekken).

Quest For Glory II posted:I disagree, because the current generation has lasted way too long-- I mean it'll be 8 years in November-- It's kind of crazy to think about. I have such fond memories of growing up with the NES and SNES, which I think I had maybe three and four years respectively? Just think if you got a 360 when you were 10 years old. You'd be playing that thing through part of grade school, all of middle and high school, and into your first year of college and possibly beyond. You might be on your third or fourth 360 by this point, but still. I don't think anybody is going to replicate that feat any time soon.
