Alright, prepare for unrealistic expectations and massive disappointment, followed by frustration and misdirected rage.

Somebody grab the popcorn.
Got it :P

no.

IT Will be ice climbers HD...
or F-Zero WII U....
Why the hell would they suddenly make Ice Climbers HD? It's not impossible, sure (see KI: Uprising) but nothing has been done with the franchise for like ever. And while I would very much like a new F-Zero, I doubt that's going to happen (but feel free to prove me wrong, Nintendo).

I'll keep shouting Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald remake until someone at nintendo listens.

Care to explain the logic of when one is getting a "new" (let us face it- it is pokemon) entry in a series the response is "boo hiss- want remakes"?

Anyway I dare say I owe the people that came up with the idea of calling a series of video press conferences with whatever sliver of news they have "Nintendo direct" a beer. That is on par with calling bonus points achievements and making the lot desirable.
I dare say it will not stop the eventual headbutt and statement of "no" of both parties but they will have a beer first.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • 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!
