I did not know about XBLA on XBox. I guess I didn't know MS wanted me to pay them for a disc that would allow me to use it.
Zelda uses touchscreen control. It's not a traditional entry in the series. I'm quite burnt out on Zelda, and I'm pumped about the possibilities.
he connected VC with his non-gamer philosophy by saying how they would be new expeirences to the younger generations of gamers, and to those who've never played games before.
GhaleonEB said:I thought Iwata's speech was oddly disjointed.
He talked about the need for disruption and non-games, then talked about old games for an hour. Then he revealed the very traditional new Zelda game (arguably the most dependable GAME franchise out there) and that was the big deal - which undercut his point about disruptive non-games I thought. (And for those who keept saying, "This isn't E3" - why did he announce Zelda then? To have something to announce, of course.)
After all the talk of amazing new features on the Revolution and the controller it's revealed that - we'll get to play lots of really old games on it (for a fee)! I'm all for emulation (the Live Arcade stuff has me excited, but part of that excitement is because the games have online play and voice communication added to old games like Smash TV.) Again, the talk about revolutionary features followed up by old games just undercut his message.
Seemed like a mis-mash of topics wihout a central message, and the messages conveyed contradicted each other. Not impressed.
