...Or what? You're going to boycott him forever because of one episode you didn't like? Fickle ain't ya?DefinitelyPsychotic said:

With the current launch titles, I'm leaning heavily towards "no".Roxor said:
In other news, I was never a fan of Nintendo (I felt their last real attempt at something resembling a console stopped at the GameCube and the last good game came out on the N64) so nothing really new here.
Will it be successful? Probably. I've not yet seen a Nintendo console flop - 'specially when it comes to handheld ones - just some take a while before there's a following, and then they can push shovelware and one or two worthy titles down it until they feel like rehashing it smaller, then with a camera, then bigger.

What business is it of yours even if I did? I hate when people make ridiculous assumptions...
c'mon nintendo ...
I have a 3DS, and the only thing I want for it (as opposed to for a DS) is pokemon.
Hurlin' those pocket monsters right onto someone else's lap, augmented reality style, on the train.

None at all. It was an educated guess based on the wording of your post. And judging by your obviously agressive reaction to mine, i'm safe to assume you'd do it too. If he scorned a game you liked too much.DefinitelyPsychotic said:
Life's too short to get upset over something like a video game, or a game console, or which footy team is better. Just laugh at the funny fast-talking man and get over it.
Nevermind the motion control, I've been asking "who holds a handheld completely still" ever since this thing was announced. I thought the point of a handheld was being able to play it out and about, barring that I know I absently shift position alot while playing my DS Lite.
"If there isn't a law against this civilisation has failed"- Definitely one of Yahtzee's funniest lines, just as much for it's delivery as it's meaning.
@Nate-ndo
It strikes me as being a bit contradictory to refer to someone as a "fanboy," and then name yourself Nate-ndo. Just saying.

Hoi, Y-lovers & Y-haters, you do know that your most favourite\abhorred internet celebrity is also doing the Escapist Podcast [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escapist-podcast]. Just thought I'd tell you.
Chill, White Knight! A handheld is only as desirable as its games library -- when 3DS gets more interesting games people will take interest, even if there's substantial proof of it causing brain tumours.Nate-ndo said:
When I say creative explosion, I mean just that: Some universe, space-time-continuum bending phenomenon that makes Rare somehow good again by being with Nintendo, like the days long ago.Nostalgia said:
But yeah, right now Rare is like a pathetic, shell of a joke that you feel too guilty about laughing at afterwards with the garbage they've been producing for Microsoft.
I can't even tell you how disappointed I am, that it is physically impossible for me to agree more to every single sentiment put forth in this video.
Motion controllers = rubbish
Current "3D" technology = rubbish
Yahtzee brought it up in a different episode as well.
They are supposed to make the gap between thought and reaction smaller. The goal is that you're supposed to be able to just think what you want your character to do and they'll do it. But instead you now have to get up and run around your coffee table for half an hour flailing your arms like a lunatic.
