Tetris in Brawl
I think having at least SOMETHING Tetris-themed would be really sweet for Brawl. The way it would work (if you didn't see my last thread about this) is, Tetris pieces would fall from the sky and hurt the players on the field, however, if you jump on top of one as it comes down (they fall slowly, mind you) you can go in for the aerial attack!
So the question is, should "Tetris" be an Assist Trophy or a level all in itself (or maybe even a new game mode)?
1. Assist Trophy: Grab the AT and the Tetris music starts playing (if having the music come in seems obtrusive, just think of the hammer; you don't really think of it as negative when that music comes in... unless you're not the one with the hammer), and Tetris pieces start falling. This could add a whole new dimension to whatever level you're playing on.
or
2. Level: The Tetris music plays the entire time. At first, you stand on acompletely flat field (cause you're standing in the puzzle-dropping area), then Tetris pieces start falling, rotating, whatever, and they change the field of battle as they do so. Like with the assist trophy, the pieces hurt you if you stand under them when they connect with the floor, but you can jump onto them as they fall to gain the high ground.
or (I just thought of this as I was typing, haha)
3. A new game mode: In Tetris mode, one player plays a game of Tetris on a large-scale Tetrisgame board-dealio. The other players duke it out (such as on the Tetris level idea above) as the person plays. This would add a whole new dimension not only to Tetris, but to the level itself since a player can directly control what's happening
What do you guys think? I think it'd be really fun, personally, and would help Brawl come that much closer to having every single franchise covered.
The Best Show on Television (with review)!
For those of you that may not know, Gamespot.com, Gamefaqs.com, and TV.com (amongst others) are all shared sites. So in other words, you can use the same account (name and password) on all three!
Anyway, I made a new review for Battlestar Galactica (aka the best show on television, or in my case, on dvd, cause I don't havecable or the sci-fi network...) on TV.com and I'm inviting anybody and everybody to give it a look! Even if you think Battlestar Galactica sounds really lame/nerdy! ![]()
Oh yeah, and here's a link: http://www.tv.com/users/Superlink517/history.php
Video games = Comic Books?
So back on topic, it got me thinking... Video games are basically like comic books were back in the day... Our parents and older relatives always say "Heck, I didn't think they'd be worth anything later on! I just wanted to read 'em!"
Will video games be like this in the future? Will there be "Vintage video game stores" where copies of the original, gold-cartridge Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time go for hundreds of thousands of dollars if they're in good condition?
I dunno... maybe I'm wrong! It just seemed like a possibility.
Wii are a Union
Hey guys!
This following week will be pretty hectic in the Wii boards (the Wii board and boards such as Brawl and Galaxy) due to E3. Chances are, these boards will move really quickly,but unfortunately, this wont be because they're filling rapidly with quality threads. Nay, spam will inevitably fill the forums with topics such as, "No. Wai! Sonic isn't in Brawl?!?" or "Sonic is in Brawl?!? I knew it!!" I'm guessing Sonic wont be in it, but either way, you can imagine the spam. If you haven't already noticed, topics like this are already becoming prominent...
So, if you'd rather not filter through all that jazz (as fun as it sounds
) you should definitely check out Wii are a Union. That is, if you want to discuss what goes on at E3 in a spam-free zone! Haha, it'll be a party!
Ifyou're already affiliated with Wii are a Union, join the festivities!
If you are already affiliated with the max number of unions, find a deletable one mehbeh...?
If you're not either of these things, well, you know what to do!
NintendoLand
I was just thinking about this the other day... there's a Disneyland and a Legoland, why not a Nintendoland? I can see it now... It'd be be divided into various sectors, which I will now explain:
*Jungle Zone* - Mainly DK-centered, it's called Jungle Zone due to its outdoorsy jungle theme. Future attractions coming, which is why it isnt flatout called "DK Zone."
DK's Jungle Safari: Like the name suggests, this would be a boat ride through a "jungle" filled with anamatronic animals. I think it should pass by DK's house and all that jazz...
DK's Crazy Cruise: Though it is labeled as a cruise, it's a rollarcoaster-style ride that goes to many different familiar locales, such as through a Jungle Japes-esque Jungle, through a Pirateship, etc.
*Space Zone* - An outerspace themed world. The entire area looks very Mario Galaxy-esque, but this sector features Metroid, and more.
Metroid Prime Shootout: Sort of a (massive) Metroid-themed lazer tag area and shooting gallery.
Abandoned Ship Tour: Much more than a simple tour, this ride will take passengers through a freighter that's been overcome by Space Pirates, prepare for the worst, and brace yourself!
F-Zero Extreme: An extremely fast-paced "Space-Mountain" style rollarcoaster that traverses over water, "lava," and through dark bases.
*Furious Speedway* - A racer-themed area, featuring Mario Kart, Diddy Kong Racing, and F-Zero (the speedway and space zone are connected at the F-Zero attraction)
Kart Racing: Hop in a go-kart and go for for the gold! A mist that covers the track proves a reasonable "canvas" for holograms of items. When you fire a koopa shell, an image fires from your kart to the one in front/behind it. The engine will briefly be stopped as a result. A couple Mario and Diddy Kong-themed areas can be seen.
*Mario Party Zone* - I dunno about this one, but I thought it would be cool to have a life-sized Mario Party game... I doubt it's even plausible, but oh well!
*Big/Small Zone* - Are you really small? Or is everything else really big? Who knows!
Pikmin-themed area
Minish cap themed area
Okay yeah, so that's the basic idea... I'll think of more stuff later (Like a Zelda themed area!). I just thought it would be cool if there was a NintendoLand somewhere out there! What do you think?
