Aonuma has some regrets about Twilight Princess
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in GameCube, News, Wii | 1 Comment
“For Twilight Princess we used the adult Link and one of the interesting things about that was how we considered the precise proportions of Link and the world. The scale is because we aimed for a more realistic quality in the size of the environments of Hyrule and what that Link faced. But the question is whether or not we were able to incorporate any and all of the interesting game ideas that were able to take advantage of that kind of sheer grand scale within the Zelda universe. I am afraid that definitely no, we were not able to do all the things that perhaps with hindsight we had the capabilities to do. With that as the starting point, we are now developing the Wii version of Legend Of Zelda. In the case of Spirit Tracks it was relatively easier, because regardless of the actual proportions between the player character and the other objects, we can simply concentrate upon the many game ideas we want to realise. But in the case of trying to depict a relatively photorealistic three-dimensional world, we have to be very careful to adapt the ideas so that they seem to perfectly fit with that world. I must admit that’s actually one of my very greatest regrets as regards the Twilight Princess.” – Eiji Aonuma
I enjoyed Twilight Princess a great deal, but one thing in particular always bothered me. While traveling through Hyrule, while the land itself was massive, it didn’t seem like there was a whole lot to do. I would say that a lot of areas lacked “liveliness.” Hopefully the developers will be addressing that in some way for the next Zelda title.
Dragon Ball DS 2 comes with Shen Long’s Mystery
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
Namco Bandai is packing in a neat little bonus with Dragon Ball DS 2 Assault! Red Ribbon Army. Those who purchase the game in Japan will be able to play Dragon Ball: Shen Long’s Mystery (otherwise known as Dragon Power in North America) on the same card. It’d make sense for Namco Bandai to bring Dragon Ball DS 2 to North America like the first game. When it went through the localization process years ago, Dragon Power turned out to be a tale about a character looking for crystal balls and lost its references to the anime. So the question is, will the company include the Dragon Power bonus? And if they do, will they decide to localize the game in a different way?

Pokemon fan event taking place on Facebook
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
An interesting event has been taking place on Facebook over the last few days. More than 271,000 users have changed their pictures to their favorite Pokemon in support of Donte Larry, who started the idea. Craig Fischer created his own group and went as far as to say that December is National “Make Your Profile Picture a Pokemon” Month. While there are only a few days left in December, you can join in on the fun by checking out the Facebook group here as well as the Facebook event here.
