I come back from the dead and I find this?
The only of my three unions that didn't get any new posts is the one that I have the most interest in: The Mario ESPN Union. I am severely disappointed...
So, don't take this post as hope of me staying for long...
EDIT: And the unions aren't updated. There's that too.
Got Wii?
I finally do. I mean, if you haven't noticed that my "Now Playing" and "My Collction" pages now include Wii Sports, Wii Play, and Mario Party 8. Which would be bad to have without a wii. and a Wiimote.
And I'm level 28 now. Just in passing.
I think I need to say something since...
Apparently, I currently think that I have to say something since I... actually I don't even remember why I thought I had to say something. Maybe I never had anything to say to begin with. Maybe it's the monumental news that I logged on to GS.
Yeah, I have no idea.
I logged in to GS this Thanksgiving!
Of course, that means there won't be a reward for it this year. I guarantee it.
Pikmin Remakes
Pikmin 1 and Pikmin 2 are being remade for the Wii.
I would like to defend the remakes, being the sheep that I am. Specifically the simplicity of doing it (and wasting their time doing this when they could be working on Pikmin 3...)
Yes, remakes are simple. Do you know what is simpler? Making more Pikmin 1 & 2 games. The Wii can play GC games, so it's not like VC titles where the original is obsolete. The only true problem with the pikies is their rarity, and either remakes or more originals would be able to solve this.
Why do this when they could be working on Pikmin 3? Pikmin three is likely nowhere near the coding stage (early development is planning usually). Yet the wii will likly change the controls from Pikmin 2 to Pikmin 3? The solution? Pikmin 2's planning stage has already been done, so they can do whatever Wiimote shenanigans they want to it now, instead of waiting for Pikmin 3 to be producible.
While private tests could be done, it doesn't let us debug the game. I stand by my belief that being able to debug a system before it is used in a major release is a good thing. Pikmin 3 is a major release. Pikmin 2 2 is not.
And the most obvious reason... money. I will not deny that.
