Nintendo Discussion

[Leoni Zheitk]

The title is pretty self explanatory.
This forum is just to talk about anything Nintendo related.
Be it a Nintendo franchise or about a Nintendo Console.

Oooooo. The memories!

NES/SNES, Nintendo 64. Mario, Zelda, Secret of Mana, Star Fox, sooooo many games.

I remember being a 7-year old MORON, trying to play Mario World on the NES. I sucked at it, though.

Must see:

News about ARMS:
- More arm types
- Elemental effects
- New character revealed

News about Splatoon 2:
- Co-op mode "Salmon Run"
- Splatoon 2 amiibo
- Launch date confirmed

But my favorite piece of news:

Spoiler

MONSTER HUNTER STORIES COMING TO THE US!

I mean, hunting monsters is fun and all, but a JRPG where you raise monsters and hunt other monsters as a team? YES PLEASE!

Where's my goddam first-party, 2.5D, classic-style, non-chibi, single-player, home-console, non-handheld bullshit Metroid, Nintendo?!
Huh? Huh?! HUH!? HUUUUUH!?!? Hop to it, fellas!

I recently got my nephews a SNES classic so they could share in my nostalgia . Had to go through some 'Jingle All The Way' bullshit for it.

All I have to say is fuck Nintendo for creating this artificial scarcity, scalper's market. They do not give one tick about their customer base.

Since I'm going to get switch soon (PC's gonna wait) I just hope Japan don't go full retard and artificially lower their units.

So happy i finally got what i wanted. Too bad a damn good fan project had to die though...

We totally should've quoted this post directly after E3, printed it out and hung it on a wall or memed it or something ... because aside from which system it was released on, they nailed basically all those points. Oh, and the updated designs for Zeta/Omega metroids look AWESOME.

Remember when Nintendo games were enjoyable?

Related, Shigeru Miyamoto is a washed up hack, who's only serving as a detriment to Nintendo at this point.

Haven't people also been saying that about Kojima? And ... actually, I don't even have a list.

 

[Stratelier]

Is it just me or does Nintendo like to do maybe only 3-4 Nintendo Direct presentations a year? Nonetheless, it makes it something to look forward to ... they kick off the year with:

Spoiler: Nintendo Direct Mini

To summarize:
- At least 5 ports of older titles to the Switch
- At least 3 DLC announcements
- News on 2 indie titles
- One surprise final announcement

 

[Axelfox]

Yeah i heard about that annoucment.

I wonder though if the Nintendo switch version of Skyrim will be able to support the Nexus mods

I been playing Skyrim, finished BOTW, picked up farm simulator for switch.

Will probably get Doom 2016.

Given that the Special Editions have official mod support, you'd think if this were the case they might have it available upon launch? Basically everything else is on par with the Special Edition....

 

[Altal]

The F-zero GBA games seem really underappreciated. Don't know why, they rock. Really hope they bring the best futuristic racing series back soon. Also a good Starfox game would be nice.

 

[Stratelier]

What kind of input plugs does your TV have, coaxial? Then you'd probably need not just an HDMI-to-AV adapter but an RF modulator as well.

Sometimes I kind of miss the RF modulator days, for one reason: you could daisy-chain multiple input devices into a single input channel (to a certain degree, anyway) so you didn't need an explicit switchbox to connect multiple devices to one set.

 

[Freedom_Eternal]

Super Mario Bros. 3 on the NES is how I got into gaming.
Good times, good times.

 

[Stratelier]

The TV takes male input plugs. RCA I guess?

In order of decreasing quality:

If you have five RCA plugs (red+green+blue and white+red) then that is component video + stereo audio.

If you have one plug with multiple lines then that is S-video (audio connects separately).

If you have three RCA plugs that are yellow, white, red then that is composite video and audio.

If you only have one large (and often threaded) plug then that's coaxial (RF modulated audiovideo).

If you have just two screws ... wow, that brings back memories. Twin lead is also RF modulated.

 

[Stratelier]

Well, that would be composite video and audio, then.

Yeah, composite hookups are the most common.

Got myself a new 3DS 5 years after having (and selling) one, so, eh, let's share friend codes and add each other!

[Kiaara]

I personally have more nintendo consols than anything else, I have an N64, A SNES re-release, a Wii-u, and a 3DS XL New.
But I enjoy the play-station franchise too. I almost got a wii and a switch, but there was a family emergency and we needed the money :/

 

[Sagt]

Since no one has mentioned it, GameFreak revealed a while back that they were developing a Pokemon game on the Switch. The good news is that it's a mainline RPG, though the bad news is that it won't be released for quite a while.

Games on the Switch have been pretty good at delivering so far, so I'm hoping this won't break the streak, when it finally comes out. :x

I play infrequently since I can only buy games for that device through a convuluted method, but we can add each other if you want.

I've owned every Nintendo console since the GameBoy and N64. Most recently played game was Mario Odysyee and Luigis Mansion 2.
