The only Nintendo franchise that would be a worse fit for movie/TV treatment is Mario.

My memory is a bit hazy, but yes, I do remember several instances where I saw something that made me think, "okay, this is set after game x."

In terms of fiction it means an established continuity. Its a fairly recent concept... The idea is that all the stories in a given setting ought to be able to be mapped out in a cohesive manner.

The term "canon" comes up mostly when certain works are excluded. People who argue about what should or shouldn't be canon are typically extremely tedious individuals who want to declare everything they like as canon and pretend all they dislike does not exist.

Bioware's roots are fetch quests and shoddy combat? Since when?

Fi would have been great if she had any kind of character development or emotion of any kind... But she never did. After Midna in TP and Zelda in ST you'd think Nintendo would no better.... But nnnope.

Revisionist history? I don't think you know what either of those words mean.

Its a valid criticism for DAI. Also Witcher 2. And Witcher 1. The optimal number of fetch quests is and always will be zero.

Basically the canon stuff + Beerus movie + game original.

Wait until early morning when there's likely to be much less traffic. I had no problem last night at 3AM.

Just got $140 USD worth of digital games. Nice.

Wow. I've never actually seen someone fail at such basic addition before. I didn't even know it was possible.

You're a second-year student right? Japanese high schools are 3-years, so MC would be 16 or 17 at the start, possibly 18 at the end.

It's only a limit in the sense that now devs will have to start compressing.

It's over for now, certainly. We just don't have the tech. When latency becomes less of an issue and more accurate sensors develop, motion-control gaming will likely get really popular again. 1:1 motion control with near-zero latency is pretty much THE ideal, but its unlikely to happen for at least another 10 years.

It has been four years. Also, the fact of digital availability very much negates the issue of scarcity.

Do you not remember how they treated 3rd parties on the Wii? They had to meet a sales quota before Nintendo would give them any money. If they failed to meet that quota Nintendo would pocket 100% of the profits.

And given the fact that the WiiU's third party support is so much worse than the Wii's, especially when it comes to the VC, it stands to reason that Nintendo is still doing something like that.

Nintendo can't even get third parties to get old games up on their Virtual Console... One can only assume that, as was the case with the Wii eShop last gen., Nintendo is actively discouraging third parties.

The reasons for a lack of third party support, all the way down to this most basic level, are myriad, and bespeak a fundamental problem with Nintendo's general attitude toward everyone else.

An L and an O and another L.
I love my Vita and all, but not at the expense of the 3DS. Disparaging one platform to compliment another is like a backhanded compliment.

Also: Minecraft is best on Vita. The hell is wrong with you? The obvious best platform is PC.

New model is $80 cheaper than the old model used to be. And of course discontinued hardware is note expensive and difficult to find--that's why backwards compatibility is such an absolute necessity.

Nice double negative, bro.
