Miyamoto Hates Toad, Talks Pikmin 3, Wii U is HD console

[Vinylic.]

Well now, that's a good read. I laughed at the hand in the toilet part, lol.
So, I'm deeply interested for pikmin 3 since he's thinking some more into it.

And since it's the wii u, who wouldn't be?

 

[theeboredone]

The hand in the toilet finally explained...also...

"You said that you had played an earlier version of Skyward Sword that was more challenging. How much more difficult was it?

As the development period goes on, we get accustomed to the content and the gameplay and the riddles and whatnot. The developer is almost always thinking, “It’s too easy for me. It must be too easy for the player, as well.” The same with designing bosses: Because the developers are supposed to be very, very skillful in challenging these tough enemies, they often make the boss too tough. It’s a dilemma we always have as developers."

Wtf, SS was garbage easy. I want to play this tough version.

 

[UberMario]

Who’s your least favorite character?

Toad. [Laughs]

My favorite character is your least favorite character?

I understand that he has some popularity. Somehow.

lol. He really deosn't like him.

 

[RespawningJesus]

I think Miyamoto doesn't like Toad because of his way of letting Bowser kidnap the princess over and over again. XD

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

The interviewer is asking that hand in the toilet question like it's never appeared in a zelda game before

 

[UltiMario]

That disturbed me too.

 

[F8AL]

Just read the interview, good stuff.

 

[Luigitoilet]

I don't really mind Toad, but I don't like him that much either.

What I really hate is how NSMB games have Mario, Luigi...and TWO Toads. wtf!?

not Wario/Waluigi or something? Hell, they could even make it SMB2 style and have one Toad and Peach as the fourth character. So lazy.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

The reason they used was BS...

They took the safe route because they were afraid little kids would think characters with different attributes would be unfair.

I hate this whole safe route the game industry is taking. I guess that's what happens with more and more money on the line

 

[RespawningJesus]

Well, you know how little kids can be . . . if you make characters have different attributes, then certain kids may want to use a certain character because they like how a character jumps or whatnot. Then kids get into fights about who should use their favorite character and whatnot, it can be a pain.

Its like how the kids at the playground would argue what Power Ranger they would be when playing. Everyone would want either the White or Red Ranger, and it would take half of the time to resolve anything. =P

 

[yani]

I love Toad. Personally I'd like to see a New Super Mario Bros. 2 taking place in Subcon.

 

[Zook]

I picked up Rhythm Heaven Fever today, and it's just as good as the DS game so far. Anyone else planning on getting this?

 

[Vinylic.]

I pretty much am. I got hooked when I played double date at GameStop.
I can't buy it yet, but I will soon.

Posting so Vinyl can post.

THE SMASH BROS 4 DEVELOPMENT HAS BEGUN.

THE SMASH BROS 4 DEVELOPMENT HAS BEGUN.

Let's hope that SSB4 is better than brawl.

*holds up +9,001 flame shield*

 

[Master Xanthan]

does that mean its gonna take like 3 years to develop? Man so difficult to wait that long.

Not necessarily.

And a delayed game usually turns out better.

Spoiler

Except Duke Nukem Forever.

Yeah but from what I heard Sakurai delayed brawl to take out wavedashing, l-canceling, and put in tripping. Idk if its true, but if that is true, then in this case, delays made the game worse.

 

[The Real Gamer]

I wonder how long it will take the development team to release a "Dojo 2" for Smash 4.

All I ask for this game is a good online system... that's ALL I ask for. PLEASE deliver Sakurai.

Don't get high hopes.

 

[Master Xanthan]

I agree, I really want good online for the next Smash Bros. as well.

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

That was my main gripe. Also more balance and hopefully not have Peach have the worst air dodge and better second jump is all I ask.

Epic post.

Not true, delays usually make the game more better. As in fixing the errors before it's released. There's a reason there are video game testers in Japan and other countries.

First, I think they're replacing the original smash dojo into the new one.

Second, I second this.

 

[Master Xanthan]

Vinyl, you missed my point. I'm trying to say that in this specific case the delays may not have been all that great. I know delays usually mean the game will be better. I mean did any of us want tripping in the game?

 

[Vinylic.]

Brawl's delay for adding in the tripping feature was silly, and I agree with that.

I know that sakurai screwed up a little, but I'm sure that he wouldn't do that again.
At least tripping didn't make such a bug fuss while fighting. They usually trip and just get back up with no harm, other aren't so lucky.

 

[F8AL]

In SSB4, your character will trip mid-air, Sakurai will call it "air turbulence".

Don't get your hopes up...

 

[Vinylic.]

I want that hope though. Even if I either email sakurai or take a trip to Japan to get to him personally.

lost.

 

[Master Xanthan]

So it was true! I had to wait a few extra months for tripping. TRIPPING, I wonder what was going through sakurai's head at the time. I really hope he removes it though.

 

[Luigitoilet]

Uh, can I see a source for this? Someone from Nintendo or Sakurai themselves saying specifically why the game was delayed.

 

[Fuelbi]

Vinyl, you missed my point. I'm trying to say that in this specific case the delays may not have been all that great. I know delays usually mean the game will be better. I mean did any of us want tripping in the game?

I did wtf? I honestly agreed with Sakurai that the game wouldn't appeal to the more casual audience if all these advanced techniques were put in there. I was happy that Sakurai put tripping in the game and I'm glad he delayed the game to implement that

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Why would tripping be the reason he delayed the game when tripping was in early playable versions of the game?

For those who may be interested - Sin and Punishment: Star Successor is running about $6 new on Target.com.

I'm fairly certain local stores would price match their online counterpart if they have the game in stock. Go look.

If it's an online only price, Walmart's won't price match

 

[Vinylic.]

I think I'm going to buy that.

I just need to put money in my prepaid card and that's that.

 

[RespawningJesus]

I highly recommend Sin and Punishment 2. Loads of fun. I'm still playing it after having it for awhile now. I paid $20 for it, so go for that $6 offer. Its a steal.
