they could bring back the splash screen and sound from the original, I think during one of their anniversary celebrations you could get a “classic” skin for the ps3 and that ruled

yeah all theyd have to do is put out 5 rotating nes games a month, basically at no cost to them, and get like 10 million people to pay them 25 bucks a month for the privilege. hell you dont even have to let them keep the games

the fact that the latest Pokémon games were basically zero effort buggy messes must have proved to them that they never need to do anything right and they’ll still make billions

Nintendo is going to arrest you

I am currently watching a Majora's Mask randomizer run, and it occurred to me: how do they get away with doing these

like, they regularly run Nintendo romhacks on GDQ, randomizers or otherwise, and half of that word is "rom," and Nintendo would absolutely sue a charity event for 51% of its earnings every year, so why haven't they

yeah the southern coast of tanaris had very gentle slopes that you could in a couple spots just walk right up, no wallwalking required. then you'd work your way west, south of un'goro, not fall into the enormous 90 degree canyons where they hadn't done any terrain work, and eventually end up in ahn'qiraj

Cool, it seems like my vague memory of how we did that was actually pretty accurate.

their public relations department has to draw the line somewhere as far as "is this worth the bad press of pursuing legal action" and it's somewhere between romhacks for charity and selling 3ds mods on etsy

do you need to know anything at all about the other ac games

also i'll buy that $200 wii u tablet if it runs any better because my 12 mini is not the best to use with the backbone. honestly for the size of the screen and how much other poo poo costs, it's not really that bad?

I read a review for the PC version and it sounded exactly like an armored core game - fun gameplay, dystopian corporate war crimes storyline, uneven difficulty, lots of customization, clocks out at 35 hours to beat.

The only surprise is that the review said it ran perfectly the entire time with no frames dropped, which is crazy considering fromsoft's usual record for initial pc releases

the last AC game i played was AC4 and it sucked rear end but im willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the devs who made some of the best games of the last 12 or so years tbh.

nintendo doesn't care about romhacks unless they are materially competing with a nintendo product. so pokemon romhacks that are trying to present a credible alternative to the current release by including features from the current generation of games often get targeted with C&Ds for example, but a randomizer for a 25 year old game isn't competing directly with a nintendo product, it's just free advertising for zelda. it's sort of surprising that nintendo didn't aim their legal department at the SMW hack community when they released mario maker but maybe it was seen as too big to kill, idk.
