I hope the visuals in Ocarina of Time 3D have improved - the E3 shots looked Dreamcast-quality at best. Also, hoping we get gameplay media of RE: Revelations; I hope it compares well to the cutscene visuals.

It's a port of a n64 game with updated visuals. What do you expect? Twilight princess level graphics? That's not gonna happen.

Agreed. The OoT 3DS shots were among my least favourite. Quite ugly they were.

Well it could, technically.
He'll they could probably do close to SS level graphics.
 
Making Ocarina of Time look higher level would defeat a lot of its charm. Ocarina of Time is a weird mix of realism with mid 1990s graphics, and I like it. The new version has, thus far, done a good job of capturing that same feel with higher-polygonal models.

And if it looked like Twilight Princess...yeesh. What a tragedy that would be. I hope that Link doesn't do his floaty walk in the new Ocarina of Time like he did in Twilight Princess, either.

maybe they will announce Headstrong's 3 3DS games. one of them better be Battalion Waras 3(D)

I doubt Headstrong has much of a relationship with Nintendo since the cancellation of their unannounced Nintendo-published Wii projects.

Bugger me, I had no idea Headstrong were working on three 3DS games. Cool. Battalion Wars 3DS would be awesome.

Nintendo SPD Group No.3 and Headstrong just released that Artstyle game on DS. It's out in Japan, and hits US this October i think.

Truthfully. I want Advance Wars 3DS over Battalion Wars 3DS.

Floaty walk? You mean that the distance he travels isn't relative to how big his steps are? Because that bugged me too, especially after the masterful animation in WW

It seems like a game that really ought to be a technical showcase, so I'm hoping it gets more time in the proverbial oven (ditto Kid Icarus).

Keh? What realism? OoT looked exactly like a 1990's anime.

Why would their relation end just because of a canceled project? Sometimes both sides agree a project isn't working out or going well so they cancel it. Cancel projects doesn't automatically mean they hate each other.

They prolly gave them a 3DS kit as compensation.

Nintendo Wars 3D and BWiiid would be awesome together

Not even, visually it looked like a straight port, just cleaned up a bit.

This is an N64 quality model, posted on this very page. If you think OoT 3D looks anything remotely like that, you need to have your eyes checked.
 
And we need more info on RE Revelations agreed. Everybody saw the zombie-like creature. I'm in need of a RE games with zombies.

Say what? I agree it didn't look like a proper remake but they definitely did more then just "clean it up a bit". Looks like they completely replaced all the textures and swapped out the character models for brand new ones. That being said, the environmental geometry looks damn near identical, so it I would say it's enhanced port.
 
Booser said:
Really? I didnt notice any difference to be honest. Im not trying to be argumentative but they dont seem to have upgraded them by much
It's much more obvious when you compair them. I would post pics but I'm on my iPod and in class

The last day at E3 they put up tech demos of how the game looks, trust me when you see it in motion you WILL notice the difference.

Well he did say cleaned up a bit. I don't think little Link has been shown yet.

Yea but Adult Link is like night and midday

Everything I've seen looks like it's been remade from scratch, but I don't see a huge change in style or anything. (they might have put him on a diet and given his hair a good wash)

Earl Cazone said:
well, they are going to redo all the prerendered backgrounds and make them actual 3d places

You can already see that with the mountain. As far as the town goes, the 360 degree image panning effect would have been literally impossible to pull off in stereo.

For my standarts, this is bannable :lol
Well then I'm glad you're not a mod with those shitacular "standarts" of yours. Seriously, just because Wacko-Jacko is dead doesn't all of a sudden make him the profit Mohamed. If you are offended by such a harmless joke you need to rethink your priorities in life.

Personally I don't even care about the joke in that image, I just picked it because it was the most relevant image that came up in Google search and I was too lazy to edit out Mj's ugly mug.

Okay, I was just talking about crazy Japan time, which I guess that is set to (I guess noon in Japan on the 29th). I'm definitely staying up for this tomorrow. :D

Suppose to be about 10AM in Japan.
Like 8PM Tuesday Central Time, I think.
 
I for one support MJ Link and hope to see him make a return.

And holy shit... Link doing side steps and back flips in OOT does sound like MJ. Mind blown :lol

Looks like it's set to 1pm.
 
Just so you guys know, back-seat modding is generally considered a bannable offense by some of the mods, so its probably not a good idea to do it.

As for SpaceWorld 2010, Im pretty sure we dont have a time. The countdown is set for some random hour.

If somebody has a legitimate time, please source.
