Pre-Pre-E3 Wii thread

The Nintendo Revolution is a combination of the old and the new.
Besides, using history as an anology, RPGs aren't just "the past". They're that part of the past, probably the Holocaust or at least the Spanish Inquisition, that should have never happened.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

"That's probably because the latest Katamari on PSP was made without Takahashi."

Katamari cannot be a hard game to design. I'd say it has a lot more to do with the fact that it was on PSP, when it was designed for dual analog.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I find it hard to believe that of all people, Nintendo of Canada let something out.
I'll check it out, and while it seems reasonable, I question the validity of something like that, from a division of Nintendo, so close to E3.
If it's true, I'm actually kinda pissed at that employee. Gonna check it out now.

Edit: I dunno about the validity, seems fine to me. I just question what they mean by force feedback. That's a terrible translation, for one thing. I could listen to it (I speak French), but I sure as hell wouldn't know what force feedback is in French, unless it's just a francais'd version of the english term.

I wonder if this was supposed to get out, and how big of a deal it is.
Either way, I doubt this is anything worth thinking about to now. Too vague.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Hahahaha. Funniest name ever. Nintendo wins.

The flash animation on the site is awesome, though I'm afraid nothing can ever beat the GC logo. It was just too perfect.
Still, I look forward to the internet hilarity.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

"I'm not sure if we're supposed to take this console seriously with that kind of a name."

Haha, you've got it!
It's a gaming console, not AIDS or starvation or the Holocaust. It's allowed to have a fun name. The world's in dire straits if we even have to take our fun seriously.

I was speaking idiomatically.

"I think that I will be calling it the Revolution when ever I decide to pick one up."

You wouldn't want them thinking you were silly, now would you? These people who will never see you again, who quite possibly own a Wii themselves. GOD FORBID IT.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

"God the marketing of this is going to be horrid."

This is a totally unfounded assumption. Just because thousands of morons on the internet are doing it doesn't mean Nintendo will resort to it. They've done quite the opposite, really.
Have you seen the flash animation on the site? If that's any indication of what the commercials will be like, this will have an excellent ad campaign.

FELIPE NO

Don't think that's official.
Which is fine, because it's convoluted to the point I can't distinguish what the logo is.
I like the slogan though.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

"for the record, i sorta liked Revolution better"

Haha, not surprising based on your sig/av combo :P

I can imagine screamin "Weeeeeeeeeeeee" with my friends and going mad before playing a round of SSBWii. If saying the name of the system is fun. . . how incredibly will the games be?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

"Nintendo has to explain it to us, and they should never really have to."

Yeah, totally unlike Microsoft's Xbox which. . . what? Does it even have a meaning?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

"Ok, no company should ever have ambiguous names for its consoles. Ever. You happy?"

Like Google or ipod or Macintosh or Motorola or Starbucks or Nike or Pepsi, exactly. If all of those even have meanings, who knows them? Nike is the Greek goddess of victory, but you think anyone wearing a Nike shoe knows that, or cares?
The product makes the name, not the other way around.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I'm just gonna scream "HEY YOU GOT ANY WiiS IN THIS STORE" as loudly as I can.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

"The graphics SUCK ass on that from what I can see. No clue what they mean."

Pay attention to the freaking excellent character model. Everything else is obviously thrown together, but that alone looks excellent.
It's a terrible video, though. Quality is shit and it's slow and buggy as hell.

Most amazing jew boots

Who says everything has to be 100% innovative? Innovation is great, sure, but it doesn't have to incorporate itself into every orifice of every game ever created.

For example, I was masturbating earlier today. Now, I masturbate on a fairly regular basis, and not much generally changes between those instances. Today, I was just sitting in a chair as per usual and jackin' it. I was watching a video I'd never seen before, but my technique and style in terms of the actual masturbation remained essentially the same.
And yet, I managed to achieve my pleasure capacity, thereby splooging as messily as ever. It was a pleasurable, worthwhile experience, even if it offered nothing new in terms of execution.

See?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

By the way, here's a much better video of that supposed Wii Tony Hawk game:

FELIPE NO

Spore looks incredible, but it's a different type of game. It's like a digital (and very advanced) form of Legos.
And it's awesome.

But it's not the game I'm looking forward to most. Twilight Princess and Wii information are going to be taking the top spots.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

"Can you guys see your non-gaming family members enjoying the Wii? Enough to warrant buying one?"

My mother and sister keep constantly asking me when Wii is coming out. They are extremely interested in it.
My sister plays some Gamecube with me, my mother hardly any games at all. Both of them really enjoyed the DS when it came out, and still want one for themselves.
I think they'll have to release a game that interests them enough to warrant a purchase (beyond just playing mine), but I also think this is highly likely, even in the launch frame.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

"Gaming has already become mainstream and appealing to even more idiots isn't necessarily a good thing."

You say that in a manner that suggests gamers aren't the biggest idiots, ever.

Edit: Also, a mighty LOL for that Rayman picture. Note grandpa in the bottom right corner.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

"I'm not sure, is the kid in black a boy or girl?"

Neither. That entity has transcended gender through its sheer awesomeness.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
