Title: For how long are nintendo going to milk this new play control thing shit
Post by: SantaC on May 24, 2009, 09:23:24 PM
Miyamoto wasn't joking when he said you could slap wii controls on old gamecube games and release them again. I guess there is no need for new games as long as there are gamecube games to port.

They can still do Mario Sunshine and Zelda Wind Wanker.

the dumbass casuals weren't aware of their existence to begin with, why create new games when it's cheaper to slap waggle controls on existing games

We had this thread already.

I can't tell if the post above me is joking or not, though. Geist sucked some monkey peins.

This is punishment for the Gamecube coming in 3rd place last gen.

Anyone surprised?

Nintendo is king at rehashing/repackaging their older games.  Anyone who expected different is naive or foolish.

Nintendo also probably felt that the GC got the short end of the stick last gen and is willing to re-release a few titles to see if they really deserved better sales or if it was better left remaining where it was.

I suspect some insane legs and high LTDs for a lot of this shit.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's give Square Enix props where props are due.

Eh, at least with Square-Enix a lot of their re-releases are full remakes.  I fully support that shit.  FFIV DS was aces man.

I dunno why people complain about ports.  Do you complain every time a movie is ported $(PseudoTemplateEnglish.PrepositionalPhraseSeq $ let formats=[VHS, DVD, theater, videodisc, UMD, laserdisc, Blu-Ray] in [[|from $(x) to $(y)|] | x, y <- formats, x /= y]) ?

I just want a Luigi's Mansion NPC - I never played the original and it seems like the game would be good with Wii controls.

They already have a see-doo mini game in Wii Sports Resort so I doubt we'll be seeing it any time soon :(

Just don't buy them

I personally won't even waste a DVD-r on this shit.

Do you even need to use DVD-r's anymore? :P

I dunno. There wasn't a Wii game worth pirating in the last couple of months. So I'm a bit outdated on the scene.

What sucks is the only GC worth porting to the Wii won't get ported. I'm talking about F-Zero GX.

You'd want to play F-Zero GX with Excite Truck controls?

Yeah dude, judging by the other NPC games, they'd change it to motion controls with no choice to change it back to GCN controls.  For Excite Truck it works, for F-Zero GX, it would be fucking suicide.  Moreso than usual.

Ok someone needs to kill whoever is doing these ports before F-Zero happens.

I really enjoyed the Excite Truck controls. Later levels of F-Zero would be hell but it'd be fun up until that point.

When you think about it, except for Mario Galaxy, every other big nintendo title plays better with the regular style way of playing videogames, using the wiimote as a regular controller

The wii is a failure when it comes to actual gameplay, but the gimmick worked with casual.

Metroid Prime? I picked up Shaun White recently and the Wiimote is used 10x better than that ssx blur shit, so I'm sure a 1080 could be done right. Not that I give a fiddler's fart about 1080.  Are we counting the new Excites as the continuation of the Excitebike franchise? Excitebots has awesome motion controls.

The only thing the Wiimote has done is proven that a pointer is better than a second analog stick, but everyone already knew this from PC games. Waggle itself is a worthless gimmick.
