Like last year a fan campaign to get Nintendo to stop region locking on 3DS/Wii U has been ignited just in time for E3 and its getting very popular with over 30k signatures and a massive outburst of support on social media and Miiverse.
Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.
Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.
Indeed, as stated in the article there were tonnes of control options and very much a 'take whatever you like, leave the rest' attitude to most of the game's extras.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
Game Rant participates in the Megaton Musashi World Cup, checking out the game a little bit beforehand and winning the first round match.
It's a shame Nintendo is too arrogant to actually go region free, it's such a great feature.
Ask for the eshop to be accessible to consumers outside USA and Canada. I cant even get to play certain digital games because Nintendo cant figure out how to price in different regions but a shitty company like Blackberry can. Also cross game chat, better notifications and easier messaging system. Anti region locking is not as important as these issues right now.
After the Tomadachi life situation, I think it will make them dig thier heals in even more
Last time people made this campaign they country locked the 3DS eshop, who knows what Iwata and Reggie would come up with this time to screw fans for advocating for this right, they really seem to like to screw loyal customers for lulz
Glad that this discussion is back.
I'm a nomad. I really need things to be region free. The DLCs being region locked are stressful enough.
