And over nine thousand zelda fanboys living in their basements became GBAtemp members just to hate on that statement.

Where'd you get the statistics?

Anyway, I unlike may people, judge a game by it's graphics + gameplay. Gameplay is first priority but if it has sucky graphics, I can't stand it.

I'm one of those 9000.

Seriously, graphics are nice, but when the gameplay is so good, you don't even realize what the graphics look like.

What a shit year the Wii is going to have, more so for us North American and European gamers.

Yeah, it's very, very bad. Glad I sold my Wii a few months ago, there is nothing coming out that I want.

That's the way to go mate, same here. I know DQ VIII on the PS2 doesn't look that good (the graphics could be shitload better on an emulator), yet I still love it.

I just read this on 3DSBuzz. It's good to know some dates.
From that list, I'll get Ocarina of Time and Continuum Shift.

Now I just need to know what the fuck happened at Captivate.

Awesome. 12 days after my b-day. This is a must buy for me because I tried the N64 version and I liked the gameplay, but the graphics horrified me so I left it.

WHAT?!!
Just cuz the graphics!??
you new generation of gamers dont know what good games are, good graphics is not what make a game good

Yes, but graphics are a very important part. Or would you buy today an awesome PS3 Ego-Shooter with N64 graphics?
If it's a good one, I would. Hell, I'd buy Medal of Honor for the PS1 before buying Call of Duty Black Ops. Even at the same price.

Which is why the original Goldeneye game is still better today then any of the other shooters on the market. Graphics may not be good, but for the time it was by far and away a landmark game, especially for console shooters as a whole since at that time there really wasn't anything on the market that was all that good. Bond ushered in a new era for the shooter genre as a whole and was just tons of fun to play and it still is even with outdated control schemes.

Not really Zelda related but related to the release list I saw, it said Conduit 2 was coming out today. Is that true at all?
According to Gamestop not for another 7 days.

It's simple, if you first started playing games that had "bad" graphics then your standards are different than if you first started playing games that had "good" graphics.

When Zelda was first released, relative to other nintendo console games, it had good graphics. So to even conceive the idea that it had bad graphics relative to other games was minimal if any at all. I have re-beat Zelda OoT 100% at least 5 times when I was a kid and not once did I think about graphics.

However, because I grew up on games where graphics was not everything, I carry the same standard and my opinions are biased on what constitutes what a good game is. As long as the graphics aren't tweaking out by glitches, the game is fine with me.

if there is one game i will definitely buy is zelda cuz i, like zorua, was disturbed by the dark graphics. And june seems like a great date. the DS seems to have some general games nothing too special maybe thor
If anything, the original Ocarina of Time was not dark enough, too many times did it make light of the whole story. In my opinion, all of the Adult Link portion of the game when you are outside should be darkness to keep the mood better.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
