Title: I don't get the DS love
Post by: Himu on April 21, 2007, 05:37:27 PM
Nintendo DS is overrated.

Almost every single "must have" for the ds is some average over hyped Japa game hyped by the interwebs that has been done better 1000 x before these game's release.

The next time an overhyped DS game comes out I'll completely ignore it because the disappointment came over way too many times:

Mega Man ZX - "OMG OMG BEST MEGAMAN EVER" and it's like barely above Mega Man X6 and X7 quality.

Hotel Dusk - "OMG OMG BEST DS ADVENTURE GAME!!" and it's completely average and feels like it was made by complete adventure gaming nubs. "BUT THE STORY IS AWESOME!!" the story is balls. The people who translated the thing are more talented than the people who wrote the game.

Contact - "OMG OMG SUDA 51!!" I like Killer 7 and all but Contact is meh. It's not that good at all, in fact, it's friggin boring.

Phoenix Wright 1 and 2 - "OMG OMG AMAZING ADVENTURE GAMES!!" I love these games myself, and even I'll admit they're average when it comes to adventure games.

New Super Mario Brso. - "OMG OMG NEW MARIO!!!" and it's completely average, and topped by the absolutely superior Kirby's Canvas Curse and Yoshi's Island 2. Funnily enough, people were saying how YI2 was going to suck and it ended up being the tits.

I could go on and on how almost every single "must have" ds title is an overated lump of fecal matter, but that would take a long ass time to do.

I played more gba games on my ds than ds games. Mega Man Zero 2  :-[ Why do people treat the DS like it's ps2 level of awesome? It's a decent machine with a lot of support, but the quality:quantity ratio is out of whack on the ds. I am going to assume this is because I'm not a portable gamer or something?

X6 and X7. At least X6 and X7 are action platformers and not run and gun. At least they don't try to be Metroidvania's when that set up SUCKS for Mega Man.

I'm going to add another one:

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - "OmG OMG BEST METROIDVANIA!!" I don't get this at all. This game is basically the most regurgitated Metroidvania. It's basically AoS 1.2, lacks little if any notable new editions, and is a down grade on almost every level. People at gaf say that DoS is better than the absolutely awesome Portrait of Ruin which is an evolution in almost every regard, and I don't get it at all.

Ok I misread, forgive me. X8 was... a travesty. X6 was decent.

ZX = Zero+X series so I'm happy and I await the sequel.

There's nothing wrong with Megaman ZX besides the crappy map system.

PW1+2 are fun for people who never or hardly played adventure games before. (i.e. most console only gamers)

I'll never understand the hate for NSMB. I liked it more than Kirby.

I haven't played Hotel Dusk yet, but I want it. I never cared too much for Contact.

Contact isn't a title that screamed "must-have" nor "hype"

You fucking dumbass. PS2 is awesome no matter what genre, aside from the dead genres like adventure, puzzle, beat em up, and shmup (unless you're willing to import).

No I didn't, but they have to be better than the gamecube. Atari 2600 certainly didn't have 6 month gaps in between games.

I sure do believe it. SNES isn't that great aside from a few games, and Genesis was always better, at least imo. I like the more action packed games on Genesis to the games on SNES aside from a few (Mario World, Yoshi's Island, LttP, FFIV, VI, and CT).

And N64 sucks balls.

Good decision.  PS1 has the most craptastic 3d graphics ever.  People who thought that GT1/GT2 were beautiful games need to go see an opthalmologist.  N64 games didn't look that great either but they were bearable.  It was hard to go back to console games back then after you've played PC games with 1st gen 3d videocards.

You can't play the game if you don't even know what the graphics represent.  Also, most PS1 games had shit framerates which affected the gameplay too.  GT2 moved like a slideshow.  When I play a racing game, I want to feel like I'm going fast.

GT3 was pretty good.  It was the first GT that didn't get hampered by a terrible framerate and ugly graphics.  GT4 was more of the same though.  I prefer games like PGR more though.  There's just too much tuning crap in GT.  I want to spend my time racing and not tuning gear ratios.

Post by: Himu on April 21, 2007, 07:39:35 PM

Mario Kart = meh (no it's not) - Yes it is. I'd rather play Outrun or something. That's another SNES game I just don't "get": F-zero. Talk about average. Xtreme G, now we're talking, but that was for the psx.
Star Fox = sucks (not at the time) I thought it was horrible when it came out. Star Fox 64 even more so.
Alladin SNES = meh (nuh uh) Genesis version kicks it's ass.
Jurassic Park snes = meh
Final Fantasy IV, VI, CT, Secret of Mana, and Lufia II = only worth while rpgs on the system (wrong again) - Tell me more rpgs worth while on the SNES then. The best ones (Tactics Ogre, Star Ocean) didn't even come out here.
SMW and Yoshi's Island are the only worth while platformers on the system(who cares? those 2 were the better than every other platformer for snes of genesis) - It's only 2 games.
DKC is average flying piece of poo. (Get the fuck out of here. DKC1+2 were great) - No, they're trial and error and not even that good. The reason people like them so much is because of first and foremost, the graphics. Platformer wise, they're amazing.

(What else did Saturn have that was better? Nothing.) - arcade based gameplay, something I love to death. The majority of genres SNES games had weren't so great back then, especially the rpgs.

I played many of them when they came out because my friend and I traded our systems - my Genesis for his SNES. I didn't play the rpgs until they were rereleased or I went back and got them for my own SNES years later though.

The best SNES game is Megaman X2 imo, followed by Chrono Trigger.

1. Mario Kart = meh (no it's not) - Yes it is. I'd rather play Outrun or something. That's another SNES game I just don't "get": F-zero. Talk about average. Xtreme G, now we're talking, but that was for the psx.
2. Star Fox = sucks (not at the time) I thought it was horrible when it came out. Star Fox 64 even more so.
3. Alladin SNES = meh (nuh uh) Genesis version kicks it's ass.
Jurassic Park snes = meh
4. Final Fantasy IV, VI, CT, Secret of Mana, and Lufia II = only worth while rpgs on the system (wrong again) - Tell me more rpgs worth while on the SNES then. The best ones (Tactics Ogre, Star Ocean) didn't even come out here.
5. SMW and Yoshi's Island are the only worth while platformers on the system(who cares? those 2 were the better than every other platformer for snes of genesis) - It's only 2 games.
6. DKC is average flying piece of poo. (Get the fuck out of here. DKC1+2 were great) - No, they're trial and error and not even that good. The reason people like them so much is because of first and foremost, the graphics. Platformer wise, they're amazing.

7. (What else did Saturn have that was better? Nothing.) - arcade based gameplay, something I love to death. The majority of genres SNES games had weren't so great back then, especially the rpgs.

8. I played many of them when they came out because my friend and I traded our systems - my Genesis for his SNES. I didn't play the rpgs until they were rereleased or I went back and got them for my own SNES years later though.

9. The best SNES game is Megaman X2 imo, followed by Chrono Trigger.

1. Did you play it by yourself or something? Mariokart was one of the most fun multiplayer games for the SNES. Xtreme G better than the F-Zero series? Hell no. Xtreme G is shit in comparison. You could've at least said Wipeout like most Sony fans do even though it's not better either.

2. Now you're even hating on Star Fox 64? Ridiculous.

3. Oh, I didn't know about that. I'll leave this one alone then.

4. The ones that I can remember off the top of my head are Breath of Fire 1+2 and Illusion of Gaia.

5. I thought you went by quality over quantity. There were no better platformers.

6. Whatever, your opinion.

7. There are a lot more genres besides arcade games and so you basically just agreed that Saturn didn't have anything else better.

8. I guess this is why you didn't enjoy any of the other RPGs as much.

9. X2 is the worst of the SNES X games. (I'm not saying it's bad, just not the best)

Looks like Himu's the bigger troll here. Hating on the SNES? Get that shit outta here.

I must say, I haven't played my DS in ages. Been too busy with other stuff including WoW. Looks like I won't get Pokemon Diamond on the first day, but when I get it I'm sure I'll go crazy over it like old times

The last Castlevania I played was the PS2 game.  What a piece of crap.  I don't have a handheld since I got rid of the PSP so I've never played the 2d Castlevanias.  Is Symphony of the Night worth buying on Xbox live?

Fo sho. I bought it and got all 200 points. The 3D ones are wank. Play the sexy 2D ones on GBA and DS. There's going to be that one for PSP coming soon, that will have SOTN on it, so maybe you can wait for that instead.

I'll be sure to get Castlevania if I get a PSP again.  It sounds like a pretty good deal since it comes with the 3d remake of the previous game.  Do you have to beat the 3d game to unlock SOTN though?  I want to try the 360 SOTN but I'm concerned about the 360's dpad since I"ve heard many people bitch about it.  Are the DS games better than SOTN since they're newer?  Do they take advantage of the dual-screens or stylus in any way?

the 360's mediocre d-pad in no way impairs enjoyment of the game. i was playing kof neowave just fine with it earlier today.

Yes, so I hear. It's not really 3D, it's 2.5D. 3D sidescrolling Rondo of Blood.

DPad is no issue, beat it just fine

Arguable, but I like metroidvanias. Cant say. Portrait of Ruin is dope right now from what I've played.

Both games have the map on the top screen. Dawn of Sorrow uses the stylus to draw little pentagrams when you beat bosses, and to chisel at ice (for like one small part), but other than that, both games don't really make you use the stylus.

Wrong. It hasn't been concluded. Things like Nights should just be forgotten. They weren't that great in the first place. Flying in circles doing laps around floating orbs! zzz.
