No egg, I hope that another generic FPS receiving false praise from the horde while doing less than what a shooter should do to be deemed acceptable isn't made. Halo 2 was neither a good or bad game; it was just ok. However, a few media outlets gave it positive reviews, and people started liking it by the tens until every PC gamer got an XBox to be "harcore". Because there's nothing more"tuff" than getting a headshot and "pwning" that "total n00b" by moving your "joystick nub" on a reverse-y axis to "align" with their "head". I hate you X-Play. You think I don't notice how you insult your viewers because you know that they'll take it in the hopes of salvaging some new snippet of information from your inane commentary? Fuck you You are a bad man Adam Sessler.
Oh and marth, this seems in line with the "wiimake" strategy, and could be seen in stores eventually as an updated version; however, Retro also said that they were looking at ways to implement wiiconnect24 into their games. Perhaps this could mean an update for MP2?
I mentioned this in another topic, and it's actually relevant unlike about 3/4 of what I say, but there's the possibility of a gamecube/ds/gba channel used for local multiplayer emulation. If any game would have benefitted from online play but did not have it, such as Sonic Rush or NSMB, then new doors are open. Pure speculation of course.
So here's a thought: if Nintendo does this, will Sony and Microsoft follow? Could every release since 2 generations ago (excluding the Dreamcast which didn't make it and n64 which used cartridges) see a similair feature? And if so, could this perhaps be further incentive for "non-gamers" attracted to the PS3/Wii/360 (cheap hd player, blu ray player, and non-traditional system) to play older games? Could it become as wide spread as other forms of media such as movies (which benefits the PS3 and 360 more as even people dismissing gaming as anti-social and whatnot could pick either up for less than their respective players)? Perhaps one day, they would try a game out of curiosity on their existing system and like it. Of course, this is just optimism; in reality I know that not only will Blu-Ray or HD (it looks like HD so far) fail, but that most people won't know how the price of either compares with the price of their media format.
Also, I predict the PSP to continue to exist for the duration of this generation. Because it's made by Sony who only makes a few billion dollars a year and is mocked by other multinational corporations.
Irrational rumor? There will be a wii channel for music, and the wii can be used as an alarm clock.
