[QUOTE=J!NX;47508661]I think the biggest reason conker/banjo/bomberman/insert90's game here will never return true to form is simply that... the people (or person) that defined what that game was either entirely stopped caring, passed away, or was fired. The old team that MADE X game, and when I say made, I mean it metaphorically has disbanded permanently[/QUOTE] Donkey Kong Country Returns disproves this theory.
[QUOTE=Fangz;47508786]Donkey Kong Country Returns disproves this theory.[/QUOTE] I'm not sure whose behind these teams but if you collect some good devs yeah you can get a true to form game, I don't see this happening very often though, sadly, except in rare cases, or when they have the original person(s) involved sadly microsoft seems to be hiring people with ideas of their own that don't fit at all and that's killing it the nuts and bolts remake more than anything just seems like a game that had the banjo IP slapped onto it bomberman I'm not sure, never was familiar with it at all

[QUOTE=Fangz;47508550]Konami owns the Bomberman IP at the moment. It is just a shame they are sitting on it though.[/QUOTE] Konami is basically sitting on most IPs they own that aren't Metal Gear, which they're going to run into the ground after MGS5.
[QUOTE=DChapsfield;47508617]their choice is either to sit on it, or risk making a sequel to Edge-rman: [t]http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070831192843/bomberman/images/e/e6/Boxart_jap_bomberman-act-zero.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] They could ignore it entirely, I know I did.
[QUOTE=Reds;47508072]I really hope that Bomberman 64 gets onto the Wii U Virtual Console. I also hope the two sequels that I only found out about a few years ago and haven't had the chance to play get on. I like 3D Bomberman more than 2D Bomberman.[/QUOTE] I want this more than anything, Bomberman 64 had an amazing singleplayer and some of the most engaging multiplayer of any bomberman game
The 'sudden death' conditions on courses like having the water rise or walls close in were pretty hectic. I remember beating 3 other kids at after-school care at a game of Bomberman 64 when it was the 3 of them against me, LOL.
the best part was how the game handled players being out after being exploded. You became a ghost and could pick up un-pumped bombs, items, and other players if they're stunned, and then you could throw said player off the stage, into hazards, or into explosions. It was fucking awesome.
I never played Bomberman growing up, but did anyone ever play "Wario Blast"? Basically, it was a gameboy Bomberman game, featuring Wario. Perhaps Nintendo could make a sequel of their own? Also, provided we do see a new Bomberman game, it would be pretty great on the Wii U, since as shown by Smash 4, the console can handle 8 players locally.
I hope Nintendo doesn't take long to put Mario Party 2 on the Wii U so I can break some friendship.
[QUOTE=BrandoJack;47510747]I never played Bomberman growing up, but did anyone ever play "Wario Blast"? Basically, it was a gameboy Bomberman game, featuring Wario. Perhaps Nintendo could make a sequel of their own?[/QUOTE] Fun fact: It's literally a westernization of Bomberman GB which allows you to replace Bomberman's sprites with Wario's. It's also the first game to feature Wario's motorcycle and cemented his fondness of explosives.
Is Xenoblade Chronicles X related to Xenoblade Chronicles in any way? Gonna be playing the 3DS version super soon regardless but kinda curious
[QUOTE=Sift;47511863]Is Xenoblade Chronicles X related to Xenoblade Chronicles in any way? Gonna be playing the 3DS version super soon regardless but kinda curious[/QUOTE] Similar game mechanics, dolls aside, but they're unrelated story-wise as far as we know and are told so far.
[QUOTE=RikohZX;47511912]Similar game mechanics, dolls aside, but they're unrelated story-wise as far as we know and are told so far.[/QUOTE] Fair enough, swear in that doll direct there was a mechon and those little fuzzy dudes are running around so... wasn't sure.
i'd probably say it's more like final fantasy or something there's straight up references to america and stuff in x, which BIG SPOILERS, isn't a thing in xenoblade 1
[QUOTE=Sift;47511863]Is Xenoblade Chronicles X related to Xenoblade Chronicles in any way? Gonna be playing the 3DS version super soon regardless but kinda curious[/QUOTE] That's the thing, it might or might not be. With the reveal at the end of Xenoblade, X might actually be... A [i]prequel.[/i] [editline]12th April 2015[/editline] And yes, Nopon are still apparently a thing. I don't know why either.
Welp, here's the translated version of X's Doll Direct. [video=youtube;mSE_l9baH2w]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSE_l9baH2w[/video] Man, I still can't believe how amazing the soundtrack is.
[QUOTE=alpha00zero;47514336]Welp, here's the translated version of X's Doll Direct. -video- Man, I still can't believe how amazing the soundtrack is.[/QUOTE] Hiroyuki Sawano is pretty great
So apparently mentioning the fan translation of Mother 3 on Miiverse is [url=http://earthboundcentral.com/2015/04/you-probably-shouldnt-post-about-the-mother-3-fan-translation-on-miiverse/]a big no no, and considered criminal activities[/url].

Even if it's just the translation patch, it requires a ROM, and ROMs are [I]far more often that not[/I] illegally obtained. Especially since Mother 3 was only released in Japan. Technically not illegal, but I see why Nintendo would moderate such a link.

Apparently there is also a crackdown on Project M discussion too according to the article.
Well be careful on spoilers, I do plan on playing through the 3DS version soon so hearing that this might be a prequel has me super confused already :v:

Yeah, I figured it must be. I've just been so itchy to get more info I guess I fell for it. My bad.
Yeah went up on april fools and the site is registered in France or something
idk if it's just me but that navigation bar is pretty blurry/low quality
I feel like a complete fool. Sorry for the bother. On another note, I wish they'd put up more VC on the Wii U. So many good games they could be making some money from.
out of all of nintendos flaws, their lack of making legacy games available is what annoys me the most
oh god imagine if they brought back e-Reader cards that worked with GBA games as Amiibo cards Buy a card pack at some store for all the e-Reader cards for a specific GBA/Gamecube VC game My dick
