What if the other player drawing the map is actually creating the land in real-time? To justify this, there could be a dark shroud over the land (never been done before!) that you can't travel through, but it gets lifted wherever Tingle draws the map. So it's presented as if the land is already there and you're just revealing it, because actually creating the land would clearly be far too much power for Tingle...

...Or would it?


Not that I'm taking this seriously...

...Or am I?


I should end all my posts in cliffhangers...

...Or should I?

You might be joking about Tingle, but I loved the Tingle Tuner and celebrated heartily when I found that it worked with my Wii. I was happy to the point where I went onto eBay and bought a custom-colored GBA-SP, 90% because I wanted it to serve as my Tingle Tuner.

Are you saying that it's a green GBA SP?

Fi, Navy or Midna (your choice next time!) will be permanently on the second screen, constantly giving you advice and literally pointing shit out for you.

I could listen to Midna bitching at me right in my face all day.

They will tap the screen and you will hear a "tap tap tap" constantly.

Are you saying that it's a green GBA SP?

Nah. I got a black-and-gold one (Saints colors) with the ultra-bright screen and longer battery life (there's a guy who takes custom orders on eBay, combining any two colors you want in any configuration.. top/bottom, inside/outside) My old GBA-SP was in really rough shape, and I didn't want it to crap-out on me in the future, leaving me without a Tingle Tuner.

I was tempted to get a green one..

今年は、時期は微妙だが任天堂が年内の発売を予定している新型据え置き型ゲーム機「Wii U」が控えている。どういった展開を見せるかが楽しみなところだ。

It's been a difficult year (for them) but Nintendo is this year preparing/has been preparing to launch their new type game system Wii U. So, it should be fun to watch/see.

I feel compelled to respond to you. Just a few more posts...

[Hero of Legend]

BG&E and ED maybe. Though I wouldn't count on ToS, because... it's Namco...

Give me Symphonia HD on Wii U retail as a remaster, I'll grab it!

They'd never put both Symphonia 1 and 2 on one disc... would they? Nah... I'm just not sure if they did anything of the sort, but did they not put the remake of the GB game and a remake of Phantasia on one UMD?

My biggest wishlist as far as Tales goes; Symphonia 3 with a beefed up Monster Collecting aspect. Shame DOTNW didn't have Graces' budget, damn it looked so nice on the Wii. :'(

[Lord Ghirahim]

If it's more powerful than a 360, I'll be very, very satisfied.

I'll be disappointed if it can't run Samaritan in 720p. "5 times more powerful" (whatever that may mean) than 7-year-old consoles shouldn't be too much to ask.

I hope it's going to be region free, so we can play for example Homeland and Metroid Prime (NTSC-J version). I doubt it though, seeing Nintendo's current agenda regarding region locks.

Well, at least buying two systems gets you two controllers!

Would be cool if you go into FPS mode (like to look around a room), the view would be in the second screen and you just move it around your room to look around the dungeon :D

Yes, you do.

I hope in the next Zelda all advices and explanations will be on the small screen in real time, meaning you can move Link around while the obligatory "you found this insect for the 50th time and we want to tell you all about it".

[Log4Girlz]

You're going to get that message on both screens...you know that right?

[bgassassin]

Yeah right. Just because you don't post as much doesn't mean you aren't obsessively viewing the boards as much as everyone else. :P

Don't do that to yourself. Epic's "5x more than 360" isn't exactly what I would call "accurate" when looking at what the next consoles might achieve.

[guek]

You don't post that much? Bwahahahaha.

I think for me it feels like I don't post that much because I'll usually go pages and pages without posting anything and then post a ton in succession.

I'm like 63rd. I do a lot more reading than I do posting. Though I bet I was ranked higher in the previous thread. This one has been a lot more game speculating, which I'm just not as into (in regards to speculating about).

[-Pyromaniac-]

You're slacking. I'm starting to pull away.

I could easily start the "controller is missing obvious features" shit storm again and pull ahead. I've done it in both threads so far, lol. I did it once or twice in OT1, and I did it near the beginning of this OT. That debate always adds at least 50-100 on me.

I'm pretty excited/interested to see how the inclusion of flash memory speeds up things like opening up the OS while playing a game and whatnot. It should all be pretty fast and smooth if it's optimized as well as something like IOS.

They did an amazing job on the 3DS.
Press the Home button and BAM, you're on the Home Screen.
Takes like a second to load up the FL or Notes, as well.

He was saved by Ace getting a couple of bans. :P

Have you shut down your 3DS lately?
It helps flush the memory.

Yeah. Should be better since the game can continue on the top screen while the OS only shows on the controller when you press the home button. Would be sick for responding to messages and whatnot real quick.

About the 3DS though, I hope they do a better job with the UI. In fact I kinda don't like all of nintendos UI's for the most part. They aren't bad to me but they are slightly off for some reason. I feel like things aren't as user friendly and intuitive as they can be. But on e again maybe I'm just spoiled by iOS.

[HylianTom]

I'll never be in that upper tier. Middle of the pack seems about right. I'd get myself into trouble for going too far with my usual honesty schtick if I posted tons. That, and I always try to mop-up any games I've been meaning to play in that last year of a console generation.. so that's going to limit my time on here.

I've taken off from work for the week of E3, so I'll be here lots then. And when GameStop announces a pre-order date, I'll be off of work again, lingering on here - live from the waiting line via iPad. For the final month or two before Launch Day, I'll be too antsy to play games that are too deep, so I'll be on here plenty then too.

God, I love new console years.. this is like a twice-a-decade Christmas/MardiGras/SuperBowl combo of gaming.

[Sadist]

Cool beans, I'm allready doing better in this thread than the original. But that's mostly because I can't stand the hype for a new Nintendo console :(

[TheCongressman1]

Yeah, and I rarely ever keep it on sleep mode.

You probably both have different opinions of instant.

Takes less than a second from when I press the Home Button until I can do something.
I dunno, that's instant to me.
