So, it's just like Mario and Sonic: giving the fans something they've asked for for years, and doing so in the worst possible game.

Well, okay, but just switch out the input. You don't have to put the whole damn thing back in the box when not in use. What Arcade's doing is the exact opposite of problem solving.

It was like "Ok lazy me, I have five games, I am going to waste time configuring this thing to play for like two hours, and then put it back in the box so I can watch The pink Panther?" ...You put your game systems back in the box when not in use? Were you born in 1930 or something? You ARE aware t...

Probably to help hype the Olympics. Once Mario and Sonic stops being fresh, they can pull out Mario and Sonic... ON DS! Then when Mario and Sonic on DS gets old... they can pull out the non-mascot Olympics game! Then a short time later, the actual Olympics begin in Beijing. Except despite their atte...

Is it that hard to point the Wii cursor at the little box with a game in it?

Yami CJMErl wrote:I also laughed at the recycled art for Waluigi.

I don't think Waluigi warrants new art until he actually appears in a game that's not some sports/party title. Seriously, even Daisy has at least one game on her resume.

It would also be a lot funnier if it wasn't absolute shit.

Yeah, I can stand the Miis in generic games like Wii Sports and Wii Sports Featuring Mario and Sonic, but they'd look horrible next to the Smash Bros characters. Actually, they don't even look very good in Generic Olympics Game.

Wow. After the Smash revelation, it seems Sega realized nobody gave a crap about the Olympics. So, as a "look, Malibu Stacy with a new hat!" move, they show us... optional Miis.

Isuka already mentioned that.


Four pages ago.

Hopefully he's controllable, if Giga Bowser and Whatever Yoshi are.

It's the party game nobody asked for! Huzzah!

You really don't think those look awkward and ugly? His facial expressions and hands, especially. His mouth being constantly centered is weird-looking (especially the last shot in the trailer), but I see no problem with his hands. Personally, I like that they've given Sonic a touch of attitude.

The final third party character should be Bomberman. He and Wario are old college buddies.

It's cool, I suppose. Though I did think the model looked a bit ugly for Sonic, but whatever. I just hope they don't 'queer it' and make him all SA2ish since Nintendo wouldn't know anything beyond SA2 like all their kiddy fans. And there better be a GHZ or similar zone. I thought the model looked g...

Yeah, at this point they're just taunting us.

Yami CJMErl wrote:Yeah, one character does not a sucky game make.

I didn't say he was the one that made it sucky, just that Shadow only appears in games that suck. He's like some kind of herald of suck.

Yami CJMErl wrote:Oh great, now instead of "omg shadow's in the game" bitchplainments, we'll be having "shadow has gunz again" bitchplainments.

If Shadow is in the game... it will suck. No exceptions.

Not even SA2 (since it was showing symptoms of suck).

Mario and Sonic, on the other hand, is like Smash Bros' polar opposite. The characters are being shoe-horned into a formula that makes that kind of character accuracy impossible. It's the Olympic license, not the cast, that is defining the gameplay. It may turn out to be a fun game, but it can neve...

Mario, Peach and even Bowser can potentially beat Sonic in a foot race. I'd say it's already failed.

Only important if they fixed anything.


Of course, since the problem was "the whole damn game," that's doubtful.

Sigh, Shadow had to be in it. I guess they needed a Sega answer to Wario? Okay, but Metal Sonic would've been a better fit, given how non-dramatic this game is. Anyway, nice cutscenes, but from what we've seen of the actual game, it still looks pretty boring to me. Also, game's title has been change...

Super Mario Sunshine isn't that bad. It's a disappointment for sure, but for what it is, it's a fun game. If you're into Star Wars, Rogue Leader is pretty good. Don't go for Rebel Strike, though, since even at its best points it doesn't really improve on the previous game... and its bad points inclu...
