Surprise, surprise. This has nothing to do with E3.
And in a way, I'm regretful of that. Because it means no new game for the series was announced. Well, except for the arcade original being on XBox Live Arcade. So I guess this is a celebration of that. Anyway, in the interest of sharing, and because someone FINALLY...
What if…
Thought on Super Smash Bros. Brawl... ...it'd be neat if say, one alternate costume for each character was an 8-bit sprite of that character. Don't know how possible/plausible that is, though, since I'm sure proportions and the like would change for at least a few...
New Super Mario Bros. Reviews
Over at Penny Arcade Forums, Slash000 and I have similar predictions/fears: I predict that a minority of reviewers will severely mark down this game for being archaic and unevolved, simplistic, and "just another basic 2D sidescroller." Hell, they'll say that the game...
Oh my God… Pac-Man: The Movie
This had me in tears! XD This is... wow. What can I say? It's like the Hollywood mentality. It's just so perfect. I have to find a way to save this... LBD "Nytetrayn"
Sonic the Hedgehog
Yeah, I'm stoked. Gives me a reason to look at another next-gen besides the Wii, anyway. Though with money being what it is, I'm not sure if that's good or bad, but I shan't complain. That is the nature of the business, and I've known this for years now, like it or...
Where Can You Find It?
As though the name "Wii" hasn't been hammered on enough already, here's a little more, in defense of the name. I pretty much get what he's saying, and agree with it, particularly with the international part. One has to admit, "Nintendo Wii" does sound a little more...
Round 1… FIGHT!
So, woekitten and I rented Street Fighter Alpha Generations a while back. Man, what a pile. Probably one of the dullest, worst-acted anime I've ever seen, Street Fighter or otherwise. I'm glad I only paid the rental fee instead of the purchase price, and since the DVD...
As usual, YTMND sinks in its fangs…
...and won't let go for awhile. Bill Pullman: Wii Celebrate our Wii! Mitch Hedberg approves of the Nintendo Wii Wii Fad - R. Lee Ermey's Comments Nobody messes with Adam Wii. Wii!!! (Gonads and Strife) Miyamoto goes "Wii!" First screenshots of Mario Wii! How to...
Two cool Mario Flash movies.
One is "Dumbass Mario," by the guy who made the old Mario Land stuff. The second... remember those rumors and stuff that'd gone around that Mario was a Communist? Well, this is a pretty awesome Flash based on that whole idea. No, I'm not a Communist, that doesn't mean...
DiC Nintendo Cartoons: A Primer
I just typed a reply to a topic over at Penny Arcade regarding the Mario toons, and it went longer than I'd expected. Since I invested all that into my post, I'd hate to see it disappear with another forum crash, or simply age, so I'm reposting it here. Super Mario...
Is Sonic “Bad?”
Did Michael Jackson help create the soundtrack for Sonic 3? Some people seem to think so. It's interesting, to say the least. And the replacement music really sucks, also, to say the least. Wish they'd gone into more depth. Like that last MJ song, what was that...
You can’t deny Mario’s popularity
LONG music video, all about Mario, some light rap to Super Mario Land tunes. Tons of commercials and animation from the US and Japan, maybe even some Europe, too. LBD "Nytetrayn"
Slowing Down
Reading a topic on Super Mario Sunshine, it saddens me to think that the GameCube's entire life cycle was spent with only one Mario game, and not even a particularly good one at that. Not to say Sunshine is all bad. It's a pretty good platformer, though my interest...
Another Look At MMPU
The Mega Man Homepage has reviewed Mega Man Powered Up. Why do I bother to mention this? Why do I care? I just find it interesting to see what opinions one of the longer online fans(if not longest in purely online time, hers was the first fanpage if I'm not mistaken)...
Tearing Down Powered Up
Looks like gelgameth managed to beat me to the punch by just a bit. No matter. So, thanks to my wife and her boss, we have ourselves a nice new copy of Mega Man Powered Up(and what was the preorder for that became my means of getting Tetris DS, FTR). And it's a pretty...
TransSpam
So, I'm going through The Mega Man Network's news submission e-mail box, which has become little more than the internet's lint trap for spam these days, and I noticed something about a number of the senders. They were all named after TransFormers, Autobots. Except for...
Lazy Muncie
Thanks to zk273 for linking me to this. I didn't think Muncie, Indiana was quite far enough to be "midwest," though. The appearance by Jim Davis was awesome, though. As a kid, I always wanted to go to Muncie and visit Paws, Inc. Still wouldn't mind someday... LBD...
What I’d Like To See…
As posted on MMNC. A few secret characters I'd like to see show up in Mega Man Powered Up(slight spoiler behind the cut) "Mega Man?" The evil version... just for the hell of it. Viewtiful Joe: Hell, he's already got the head for it, and it'd be cool to use some VFX...
HERE COMES THE PAIN.
Behold. The CDi intros and endings for their Zelda games. Watch at your own risk. Interestingly enough, according to Guard Convoy who posted this at The Allspark, the gameplay is surprisingly solid despite some silly mechanics, like one-hit bosses(with the right...
Mega Mutterings
Ok, just read the manual for MMPU(waiting for Red to get home before I play, just in case). I can't believe the booklet calls Rock "Mega." I could understand it in the game, given they seemed to have a miscommunication in translation. They seemed to know it was...
