Yeah, I loved Zelda for the Nintendo Genesis (that was the 16bit one, right?). The 64 stuff didn't sit well with me however...
And thanks for the heads up on Trace Memory! I'll keep it in mind.

Yeah, I loved Zelda for the Nintendo Genesis (that was the 16bit one, right?). The 64 stuff didn't sit well with me however...
Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) Genesis was Sega, mate!
I loved Zelda: A Link To The Past; 64's Zelda: The Ocarina of Time was great too, but probably not as good. Why didn't they made any truly good N64 games? That console seems like a waste of time for me to Nintendo, they released it but never really did anything, there are tons and tons of SNES games, while there are few N64, and the ones in SNES were usually better. Killing for peace is like screwing for virginity. I think Nintendo's odd policies towards third party developers around that time didn't help any. They released two Zelda games for the N64 I think, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. Both were good games, but not as good as you'd expect of the Zelda series.
Yeah, the 64 was a big joke! In that regard I think it's a good thing that Sony and Microsoft entered the arena. No competition for Nintendo would probably have sent the consoles down the drain. If the Revolution does as well as I'm starting to believe it will, Nintendo should do well in the time to come.
Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) Well, I'm not too confident about the Revolution, I have to say. I think a lot of folks will be put off because A) It's not new technology, so it doesn't have the whizz-bang latest supercooled technology-of-thefuture that the 360 and the PS3 has and B) The controller, while innovative, is a big departure from the norm.
I think the Revolutions strength is that is doesn't have the fantastic hardware. Playstation 3 and XBox 360 is all about graphics, while the Revolution will have to follow it's little brother DS in many ways; gameplay to sell over graphics. Then again, there are probably too many casual retards that think graphics roxors for that to ever happen...
Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) I really hope you're right. I think a lot of gamers will stick with Sony and MS, they're too entrenched in the brands and have too much of their own ego invested in them, but likewise I hope the hardcore and those just getting into gaming pick up the Revolution. The Gameube had several rather good looking games (Resident Evil 4 was a beautiful game) so I hope they keep refining the DVD tech and bring out some fine looking games that are innovative as well. Hopefully this will turn the tide of graphics worship.
Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) This - http://uk.gizmo...t_in_hours.html - probably won't hurt them either.
Indeed! Sony is having some serious trouble these days from what I hear. Go Nintendo! Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) They've taken a hit recently, but they're quite big, and they make such a wide range of products that they've got plenty of reserves to sink into their console business. Same for MS, really. Square-Enix has announced a few new titles. Greetings from Olav (Staff at StrategyCore.co.uk) Not shy about re-releasing old FF titles, are they? Still, some new ones in there should be good.
