It's not their fault I'm good enough at Mario to beat Galaxy in three days. I can beat almost any other Mario game just as fast or faster. What's the idea behind there ever being more than one 3-D Mario adventure on one console, though? That has never happened unless you count Luigi's Mansion.

Harvest Moon for the Game Boy was not one of the worst things I've ever played, but it was bad for the following reasons:

-The "town" you could go into when you leave your farm was four shop-ish places selected via a map-shaped menu. Whether any of the places would let you in was literally random.

-It had a dumb name: Harvest Moon GB. On the other hand, that makes me feel a little better about all the idiotic "DS" puns on said portable.

I didn't care for Harvest Moon GBC.

I'm going to say Transformers: The Movie for Wii. Just generally bad.

RPG re-releases are generally the best thing ever (especially when we're talking Chrono Trigger), so I'm pretty darn happy about the DS, personally.

Or new RPGs...

Can't wait for 358/2 Days...

Kingdom Hearts is barely an RPG.

Fixed.

Save for Mushroom Men, which actually does look sorta cool, and sure-fire awesomeness like the PW Edgeworth spinoff, there's nothing to be truly excited about regarding the DS unless you like RPG re-releases. But the Wii's in the worst shape. I can count the number of truly great, triple-A titles released per year on one hand.

Every pro-Nintendo argument I've seen lists the exception, not the rule. The Wii has SMG, yeah, but so what? Everyone here's beaten that like four times over, and some new games would be appreciated. Just admit it: Nintendo desperately needs to shape up.

I missed the part where re-releases are bad. Sure, original content is awesome, and the DS has a ton of that, but re-releases of great games are also awesome - especially if they add new content.

I missed the part where re-releases are good. I mean, sure, good games are still good after the first time you play them, but they're no substitute for new good games.

You just described all JRPGs.

Makes you wonder why they're even called "RPGs" in the first place. CWG (Cutscene Watching Game) or TRG (Text Reading Game) would be more suitable.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #117 on:** August 24, 2008, 04:35:19 PM »

Because the first ones took elements from D&D.
Also, just because you don't know how to have fun doesn't mean you have to act like people don't actually do anything when playing.

The Chef · « **Reply #118 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:24:05 PM »

I'm not saying they aren't fun, I'm just pointing out that they really aren't games, let alone role-playing.

Glorb · « **Reply #119 on:** August 24, 2008, 05:42:26 PM »

Well, you're playing a role, so...
