Don't listen to this guy. He's a crackbaby.Shikamaru Ninja said:Blue Storm is better but Wave Race 64 is still awesome.
Japan got it last week.Conrad Link said:Holy carp Wave Race 64 outta no where!
64 destroys Blue Storm, from aesthetic to handling to course design to music... it's the real deal, probably the best 32/64bit
I dunno, handling was almost *perfect* on WR64 (way better than the steep, stiff BS controls) and the course design was definitely leaps and bounds better.... weather was a nice new variable in BS, but that alone doesn't make up for the frankly boring tracks and scenery. The overall aestehtic too (menu, interface, art/world/character design, etc) was shit compared to EAD's game.Shikamaru Ninja said:Disagree. The handling on Blue Storm is much more sophisticated and can be customized. The track design is much more varied and the weather completely gives new faces to the levels. I think Blue Storm is much better in pretty much every department. I happen to love Josh Schwedler soundtracks (Pokemon Puzzle League, Blue Storm, Metroid Prime Hunters).
Wave Race 64 has it's charm but I think you are just doing your usual bit of NST hating mate. Blue Storm has a deeper learning curve but ultimately the control and mechanics are superior.
Similar to Super Mario Sunshine over Super Mario 64. (Just on control mind you)
We've been getting 95% of all games last (Or not at all) for every single generation since the NES. Stop getting upset over ports of old games that we get first.EphemeralDream said:Looks like we might be batting 1.000 in today's Retro Roundup. The world eagerly awaits.
Shame on no Metroid or Mega Man though. If the hypothetical situation of EU getting Super Metroid before NA does indeed occur...Well let's say World War III will be coming sooner than we all thought.

Pretty much my reaction, yea.TekunoRobby said:Wave Race 64 AND The Adventure of Lolo?
Hell yes!
That was the ONE game I was looking forward to at E3. Why the hell did Nintendo pull the game?jjasper said:Yeah I personally found BS to be better than 64. But I still love both.
Give me Wii Motorsports Nintendo.
I pretty much agree with you. BS had beautiful music and the controls were spot-on. Also, I enjoyed the variety that the weather system brought to the game. WR64 only really bests its sequel in overall aesthetic. And despite NST claiming they reused the same wave physics coding from WR64 I thought the two games approached that aspect differently.Shikamaru Ninja said:Disagree.

jarrod said:Doesn't N64 allow an easy "swap" route for texture sets? Isn't that why we got all those texture mods floating around the scene too... might also explain some VC games like Mario 64 having seemingly higher quality textures.
:lol :lolHo hum, a TurboGrafx-16 shooter on Virtual Console. What else is new?
...is what we'd say if we were idiots. But this is no mere shooter, friends. This is Galaga '90 -- the one sequel to Namco's venerable arcade essential that truly feels worthy of the name.
Nope, you just need to do it yourself... annoying but not that surprising.SanjuroTsubaki said:Question. Has Nintendo done or announced anything about changing the screen resolution in VC games on a widescreen monitor?
