thaddius' Console Classic 2012 Edition: Round 12

[431unknown]

I wouldn't call the Vita a joke, but it is lacking a little. Voted for 3DS btw.

Not sure what's better, a little bit of some nice and fresh games or ZeldaOT and Starfox64 all over again, sprinkled with some delicious Nintendogs.

No offense, but as of today, the ratio of "good" and "relatively fresh games", with fresh meaning "made recently, not dug up and re-animated into a freshly-made zombie" on both systems seems to be 50/50 to me.

The first thing I dream about when picking up a 2011 console is playing some fun 1998 titles.

Where's the "they're all a bit shit cause they have little choice of games?"

No, Kid Icarus and Mario Land 3D alone does not make a system worth buying.

The same goes for Uncharted: GA and Lumines.

There aren't any remakes out for the Vita, what are you smoking.

EDIT: OH SORRY DISGAEA 3.

The 3DS version of OoT is known as the greatest game ever made? On what list is that?

The simple fact is that most of the time those lists are as much nostalgia based as anything else. Would it have the same impact if it was released today? Would FFVII? Would Link to the Past? Sonic? No. Games age and whilst rose tinted specs dull that degradation i don't think OoT as a massive selling point is something to brag about.

I'm far more interested to know why, if it's such a huge success on all counts, i'm in a situation where i can only sell my 3DS if i want to accept a 50% loss?

My god... somebody gets me.

I feel reVITAlized, thank you.

I'll be an outsider here and say I don't even think OoT is one of the greatest games ever made. Compared to future Zelda titles it kinda pales in comparison. It was the "originator" but it wasn't the "perfecter".

Yet again I don't think Zelda is the standard for gaming excellence so I guess my opinion is shit.

I never "got" the Zelda appeal - the only Zelda that I tried and enjoyed was Zelda: A Link to the Past - that game was awesome.

The N64 Zeldas, to me, suffer from the same sickness as many other "early 3D" games - if you didn't play them at the time of their release, they will look shit to you no matter what. I hate to say it, but I just don't like it. Maybe I didn't play it enough but to me it's just not appealing.

 

[xist]

what list what are you talking about ?

You said it's "known as the greatest game ever made" implying somewhere it's been widely discussed as that good. Unless you mean it's known in hidden circles that must not be spoken about then it must be documented somewhere, and i'm just wondering what specifically you were referring to. If it's not lists you can link to then articles will do.

You keep on saying that. That may have been true when it first came out but it certainly isn't now.

• Snake Eater 3D (remake)
• Kid Icarus: Uprising
• Resident Evil Revelations
• Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars
• BIT.TRIP SAGA
• Nano Assault
• Super Mario 3D Land
• Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy
• Dead or Alive: Dimensions
• Mario Kart 7
• Pushmo
• Mutant Mudds

Or are those all old 1998 ports?



Better than what the Vita has right now.

• Snake Eater 3D (remake)
• Kid Icarus: Uprising Changed my mind. It will do, I suppose.
• Resident Evil Revelations
• Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars
• BIT.TRIP SAGA X
• Nano Assault (? Maybe... ?)
• Super Mario 3D Land X
• Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy
• Dead or Alive: Dimensions
• Mario Kart 7 X
• Pushmo X
• Mutant Mudds X

Or are those all old 1998 ports?

I'm not saying that all of the 3DS games are bad. Look at my previous posts. I'm putting both the 3DS and the Vita on an equal level at this point and refuse to vote for either as both present interesting titles.

Also, they're better then what Vita has in your opinion. I marked the games I don't particularily fancy for you with an X.

It's cute that you think Snake Eater 3D is a good example of how good the 3DS is.

If you excuse me I'll play a good version of the game on my Xbox 360.
