No pun intended; there are other ways to send the message across.
If you want region free games, then email Nintendo with your problem, if the ammount of you were enough to force them to react like this. (IT took them hell of long to react, almost 8 months.) Then a mess of emails reminding them of your passions could lead to region free Wiis.
Spread that word like you guys did your homebrew and make it the "in thing" like you guys did with homebrew and I ca...
That's not a good motto you guys set up.
Sony does need profitability though... In many cases gaming is similar to news papers as far as getting profit from them.
With news papers they practice lower cost higher profit, this is because the lower the cost of the paper the more people will pick it up as these papers seem to have given in to a concept that they can only report news in one way and that way is in direct competition with any rival news papers. The point is...
I will have to trust Nintendo on this.
LBP is not a game when you use it's level creator, and PC has never been great at turning the moment of creating user content into gameplay.
I'm sure Shigeru and Iwata can't see this as the future, this is just the lazy way out, mimicing what PC games have been doing since 1994.
Hmmm so capcom has abandoned the PS Brand and is milking thier games... like:
PS: Devil May Cry 2, Devil May Cry 3, Devil May Cry 4, Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil: Code Veronica, Resident Evil Directors Cut, Resident Evil 3, Resident Evil (On the rails shooter thing), Resident Evil 4, soon Resident Evil 5, Megaman X, Megaman X2, Megaman X3, Megaman X4, Megaman anniversary collection, Megaman X5, Megaman X6, Street Fighter Alpha 1, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Street Fighter Alpha 3, ...
Development side Brawl shouldn't claim this prize and neither should LBP and many of the mentioned games.
Halo shouldn't have gotten it last year either but it did.
Brawl didn't present any new real ideas, the core mechanics of the game was redone (for better or worse) and characters added, the game had a series of other games and the music was well put together.
LBP has an awesome Narrator decent but repetative music and shallow game play . The online c...
I'm not a gamer, I never even thought of it.
This gaming industry has become large enough that it has to be recognized as a viable economic contributer even to the US government.
So I never considered a reshuffling by the presidency or Washington itself on this industry to ever happen, considered by extremists yes but acted on? No.
To date - Nintendo is killing old gaming and bringing in new gaming.
Working moms are the demographic they are gunning for and the effect trickles, everything else is collateral damage and they just hopped on it as soon as possible.
So yes Nintendo is hurting this industry.. but this industry was doomed once the Xbox360 and PS3 were announced anyway.
I've already spent over 500 hours on brawl... I haven't done that with any console game outside of PSU and Melee and Smash Bros and the Kart Series.
PSU is a mmo though...
GOTY though... doesn't matter if your having fun.. the only people who should care about such things are the developers I guess... consumers should be caring more about the games they enjoy.
Will have negative sales during a recession while the Xbox360 and PS3 will strive forward on the devotion of the hardcore gamer!
Yep, this is one of the prettiest suckiest Wii games, the controls were putrid for the light saber, the force techs were ok though, but when you play the HD version you can do so much more with the moves so even the nice feel of pushing with the Nunchuk to get the force push leaves a underwhelming taste of a water boiled mushroom.
Funny review
Looks good and I like gamma corrections as an option, this may be my first FPS I usually preffer arcade shooters though.
Eww, they were counting PS2 also!?
Software is software though... Sony does count PS2 into fiscal reports though... But Nintendo didn't count SNES sales back in the day even though they were still comparible to the N64 sales.
It looks good, I'd buy it, seems very traditional while using the wiimote functions.
I can't believe the similarities!
What I believe less is that the Wii is still out selling both HD Twins combined regardless and is selling faster than the PS2 did in it's peak 3rd year. Damn Nintendomination!!!!! Damn it to hell!
Gosh, grow up, buy the game if you want it. Journalists are just kids who never learned "IF you don't have anything nice to say just shut up." Meh whatever he got my click ^_^
That I triped out of my chair and my butt hit the ceiling. My mind feels violated =.=
In the end who is selling more? Who has more units sold? What platform are more people playing games on? Finally how does it affect gamers?
One that was sarcasm, two that was directed at cliffb and the guy above him, three that was a quote and the author of that quote was being sarcastic as well.
"Do you know what time it is?
Why, it is NPD TIME! *theme song comes on* *confetti rains from the blog post* *Scantily clad dancing girls run around on stage* And the numbers for this NPD Time are…
Wii 687,000
Nintendo DS 536,800
Xbox 360 347,200
PSP 238,100
PlayStation 3 232,400
PlayStation 2 173,500
Do you know what the NPD numbers REALLY say? What does it REALLY MEAN when Wii and DS keep topping the sales charts beyond thei...
Here's sales 101 - Price cuts.
Xbox 360 versus Playstation 3:
Each month this is a balancing scale, when one recieves more the other recieves less, that is what many of the above posters were looking for. This would be true in the case of software being released or a new wider appealing hardware model that still fit into the "HD Twin" model.
Price Cuts do not work in this way, a price cut is similar to showing your hand. What a price cut does i...
