They looked like Eshop Titles at best, not really things id throw my money at but something Id buy down the road for its silly gameplay. They're not terrible looking, but they're not really must haves to me either.

I think the Times leak really broke his spirits.

The poor guy was really pumped up to show us all Star Fox and then the leak happens and everyone starts shitting on his new Star Fox before he can even say the words.

Both the mini-games that he showed featured ROB or ROB 64 so they're probably part of the Star Fox game and not stand alone titles. Dude's already flown all the way over the ocean he had to show something. The Times leak had everyone hating on the "unpolished" look of Star Fox so he said fuck it and kept his mouth shut about it, showing off 2 basic concepts and gtfo.

It seems to me that Project Guard and Project Giant Robot could both be smaller parts of a single bigger game. Kind of like Nintendoland, a game that would be a collection of games. But games that are bigger than just little mini-games. I think that would be cool to see a game thats kind of like a showcasing of 10 or so new ideas that seem great, but not great enough to make solid full retail releases. Or perhaps better yet, a game that has a coherent story, but every single level i s something completely different than the last, if there are giant robots, surely there are smaller robots that you have to keep out of your house, maybe the bigger scale of the game could be about a robot uprising or something crazy like that. If however they are separate individual releases, I'd assume they'd be eshop titles, and hope they wouldn't be full retail single releases, they don't seem big enough for that.

IMO they looked shit, proper slow, cumbersome. These things I think are what make u think the system is crap. Lack of 3rd party support etc, mature games.
Thought xenoblade, bayonetta, smash bro, zelda, did a good job(which is good) its just the diversity of other 3 party titles are no where to be seen.
I know I know b4 u say it "Nintendo machines are for Nintendo games blah blah' jus sayin it dissapointing.
Thought those game will good I'm sure...

Id imagine they are both going to be eshop titles. Both titles are also work-in-progress so try to keep that in mind before completely sh***ing all over them.

I personally think Project Giant Robot looks fun as hell. Build a sweet ass robot and then bitch slap some other robots? Yes please.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
