[ChaosVortex]

Good enough for me.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Miyamoto's gone off the rail on a crazy train this time.

[ChaosVortex]

Good enough for me.

[Chron]

I liked Wind Waker, but I never have felt compelled to play Phantom Hourglass.
I feel the same about this one.

It's not the graphics; I like those... it's just something about portable Zelda games has always irked me.

[Speed Racer]

I'll be getting Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena and Godfather II. I'm looking at getting Ninja Blade, but I'm not sure if I'll get it yet.

[Vinchenz Rock]

...Why is there a train?
I'm going to assume that that isn't a direct sequel to Phantom Hourglass.

*Sigh* It's a steam train. A #####ing steam train. The boat in PH is a #####ing steam boat.

Yes, it's a #####ing sequel.

Also, everyone go download #####ing Wii System Menu 4.0. It's #####ing worth it.

[preventerWIND]

Looks like someone discovered how to curse. And not well I might add.

[ASR]

it's just something about portable Zelda games has always irked me.

Ever played Link's Awakening? My favorite Zelda game.

[Majikn]

No way in hell is it a sequel. Remember Wind Waker? Remember Phantom Hourglass?

Oceans.

[Vinchenz Rock]

#####ing you.

Oceans.

Eh, yeah, you're right. I was just being a butt to Sano.

However, it's obvious that they've taken a lot of resources from PH.

[ASR]

Oceans.

Oddly enough, I can't argue this.

[Chron]

Yes. I hate it. Great music, though.
The only one of them I like much is Minish Cap, which is odd because I seem to remember not many people like it.

... I guess I should mumble something about waiting for the Metroid Prime Wii remake to come out, but honestly I'm still not sure if I even want to buy that.
I have like $50 of Best Buy gift cards, and there's nothing I want to buy when I walk through that place.

Only since you now have more space for your VC games.
You can not move the card to another Wii and play your games from there.
I paid for the things, and I should be able to play them wherever I want to, so until they fix that it's merely a space-saving device.

Oh, and don't even think about trying to mess with the files; if you read they suggest that they just delete anything you've tampered with. I know what they've done; they've put some big horrible checksums around various bits of data and then entire thing just to make it nigh impossible to pirate (which I respect, but if they've gone to this trouble then IT SHOULD BE SAFE TO PLAY THEM ON OTHER WIIS).

I now hate Nintendo so much I may never buy another of their games again.
I realize that I'm not making a statement to them, and that I'm just one person. It's not my intention to make a statement.

I'm just tired of being bamboozled out of my money time and time again.
That stops now.

[ASR]

...Minish Cap was awful from the hour or so I played.

...how could... how could you hate Link's Awakening?!

People can bring their VC games to my Wii and I can play them. Well, maybe not anymore but that should be fixed soon.

I also have EarthBound as a VC game, lawlz.

Although, I agree. You should be able to play them on other Wiis- just make it so that you can't copy them.

What about it is worth it? I'm out of touch on Wii stuff now.

[Fatso]

Seems it lets you play VC/WiiWare games from your SD card, at least that's what I could glean from context.

[NovaMan XP]

That's great. Since I'm sure 80-90% of my Wii space is wasted on Virtual Console games. Too bad even with all that freed up space there still isn't alot...

[Chron]

Yes, but you can even moved saved data on to a card.
And even a measly 2GB card has a whole arseload of blocks.

...Minish Cap was awful from the hour or so I played.

...how could... how could you hate Link's Awakening?!

Because I'm not you? I dunno.
Sufficiently explain why I don't like it and why you do, and you'll win a Nobel Prize.
No joke.

[Johncarllos]

I have like 7000 blocks of Guitar Hero DLC on my SD card.

[Chron]

... why?
No.
Never mind. Don't answer that. I don't care.

[Johncarllos]

90% of it was free.
That's why.

Sorry, but I'm right and you're wrong. Simple as that. But it's okay, we can still be friends.

[Xero]

Trains?  In my Zelda?

WHAT THE #####?

[Mikero]

Trains are the #####, what's your problem? Don't get mad at trains because they're cooler than you!

I liked Wind Waker, but I never have felt compelled to play Phantom Hourglass.

Same here.

I feel the same about this one.

Not the same here.

It's not the graphics; I like those... it's just something about portable Zelda games has always irked me.

Really not the same here. I love portable Zelda games, but Minish Cap really turned me off for a while so I never bothered with Phantom Hourglass. Link's Awakening is one of my absolutamenté favourites though, so yeah that's kinda odd.

Especially since at first glance, LA and MC have a kind of similar feel, with the whole "not so much Hyrule" kind of deal. But then, Majora's Mask had that and it's the 2nd worst Zelda game I've ever played.

But I own and did finish Minish Cap anyway. I don't like it, but it's not that bad.

[Chron]

Curious. I also dislike Majora's Mask.

There's also a possibility that I could simply be forcing myself not to want to play these games because I simply lack the money to buy anything. No idea though, and that has nothing to do with my dislike for the old Capcom Zelda games.

No prize today, what a shame.

[Vinchenz Rock]

My favourite portable Zelda games are the Oracle games, first Ages and Seasons second. Link's Awakening comes third, but I may have liked it first if I had more nostalgic feelings towards it, since I played it AFTER the Oracle games.

I never liked Minish Cap all too much either. Not sure why, it's not a bad Zelda game but it's not good either, I guess. Didn't have all that much fun playing through it.

Also, i lovs majoras mask u guies suck stfu

[ASR]

I think I talked about Minish Cap earlier:

Basically, it's just incredibly mediocre. It's got all the Zelda elements, but nothing stands out, and nothing's really bad. It's like a straight line, with no pros and no cons.

[Mikero]

There's one con for me, the game often leaves you in the dark about what to actually go and do, so I spent some time wandering trying random #####. And Zelda games can get complicated with their puzzles, so if you don't even know where you're supposed to be headed that'll ##### you up because you keep trying to solve puzzles that aren't there (yet).

All you said that you played it for an hour, but yeah. I think that's what made me not like the game all that much.

This too. I ran around in that swamp for two hours before I finally found that dungeon.

I played it for more than an hour, but I never beat it. I borrowed it from a friend and got bored not too far into the game.

[Chron]

Strangely, I managed to beat the whole thing without much difficulty and find most of the secret bits, too. Missing some heart pieces but I've never cared to collect them all.

Most people don't like Minish Cap, though, but sometimes I have inverted mainstream tastes.

[Abominator]

Witness a ripoff:

http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/969/969244p1.html

Looks alright though!

[ASR]

Yeah, I watched the video and it looks fun. Don't know what to expect for sure, but I'm interested.

[Johncarllos]

Looks okay....

[Majikn]

Please be bringing it on!

[Chron]

His main attack is explosions.
Generated from his body.

... why the hell is there a life bar?

[NovaMan XP]

I think its kinda weird that he explodes... (I WANT A MEGA BUSTER)
But it looks fun, although if the Wii version looks like crap, I'll be wanting a 360 port... >_>

[Mikero]

It looks like the fun version of a SSB Brawl stage.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

So...
Anyone else think Wario Ware Myself looks like the best thing ever?

[ASR]

Link me. I love WarioWare.

[Vinchenz Rock]

Y'know, ASR? I think you'd like Rhythm Heaven for the DS. Made by the same guys who made WW, but the game is centered around rhythm and music for its insanity.

Also, I think WarioWare Myself is a WW game where you can create and share your own micro-games... which sounds like your type of game, ASR.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Link me. I love WarioWare.

Uh... Some videos.
From what I gather you can make your own micro-games in this one.

[ASR]

Looks... interesting.

[Slugkid]

They are also going to release WarioWare: Snapped(Or Snap it, I don't remember) for DSiware, it involves taking photos and all.

[ASR]

Goddamn DSiWare.

I don't want a DSi.

[Vinchenz Rock]

It's already out and it's not all that great.

[NovaMan XP]

Apparently DSiWare is crap at the moment. Nintendo probably wants to wait until they make a lot of money from the DSi being a new console before making alot of money because of a title being released on it exclusively.

I want a DSi, but I really don't want to spend $170 on the damn thing.

[Vinchenz Rock]

The DSi first week sales have outsold the DS Lite's first week sales, so Nintendo is already racking in the cash.

The only game I downloaded for it so far is Aquios which isn't a bad puzzle game. Kind-of addicting, but I'm done with it now.

I think it would be extremely awesome if Capcom ported MegaMan 9 to the DSi. I'd definitely re-buy it just to be able to play it on the go.

[NovaMan XP]

I think there would be screen size issues... but I would buy it for the portability also, despite probably getting bored of it after a week or month.
