Looks good. Makes me like Krom more. Oh, and hoping this game comes out here.
Hmmm, so maybe they are making a sequel
Probably. Wikipedia says Vanpool made it. They worked with Nintendo on other games like one of the Tingle games and Wii Play Motion.
They are owned by Nintendo, so they are actually 1st party. So far, the only second party series to have characters in Smash are Kirby, Pokemon and Earthbound. Of course, HAL and Game Freak have a good history with Nintendo and have only worked with them in the laast 10 or 20 years so.......

First party. They've essentially been a part of Nintendo since its inception. It would be no different if the R&D groups were given different names (that'd actually be kind of cool).
Camelot[a 2nd party] made Golden Sun and Mario Tennis. Isaac and Waluigi are ATs in Brawl. Maybe it's starting to get some love from Nintendo, too.
Point is that there are characters out there that Nintendo owns but wasn't developed by a Nintendo developer. Sin and Punishment is owned by Nintendo but the developer, Treasure, isn't. Sakurai has mentioned problems with some series that were even owned by Nintendo as far as copyrights go.
Talking about characters that are made by other companies but are owned by Nintendo. IP laws have a lot to them. And Sakurai has said that there were Nintendo characters where they ran into copyright problems.
About that, for those such characters they had problems with, then by consequence it means they could not have appeared AT ALL in Brawl, right? Surely any legal stuff wouldn't make the distinction of playable character or sticker.
Maybe in royalty fees.
I now own luigi.
In other words none of this helps.
Tail's constant #2 role does help.Solid Snake stars in about half a dozen games, and Naked Snake stars in half of that. They are basically the same character. Raiden stars in 2 games (1 is forthcoming) and the rest of the characters in the series haven't had a constant prominent role or starred in a Metal Gear game.
Uhh... it's called the Wiimote and motion controls. Microsoft and Sony both made inferior copies of it years later. Also, the DS' touch screen and the 3DS having 3D without requiring 3D glasses.
Most likely. Shortie was the one who found the original quote and Sakurai mentioned he had legal trouble with some Nintendo characters. A big thing I was pointing out is that they seem to pick characters mostly from Nintendo 1st party franchises (with the exception of the third parties). That seems to be the trend at least. Could change with SSB4.
It's funny, because when Nintendo is just now catching up to the 360 and PS3, but when Sony and Microsoft make their next console, Nintendo will be behind again, lol.
If one honestly thinks that the Wii U will only be as powerful, or even just slightly more powerful, than the 360 or PS3, then I think that person is silly.
When an expensive controller is the main focus, using old technology (360 and PS3 level hardware) to keep costs down makes sense. Besides, it's already been said it's probably 150% more powerful than the PS3. I'm not really SURE, but that probably won't a very noticeable LEAP.
The rumored specs of the next XBOX (720?) aren't much better than the Wii-U.
The main thing is the console is touch screen and its true that nothing can't beat ps3 and 360 but think they add more bits.
It won't be a noticeable leap resolution-wise, but the true power in this generation is in the game engines, anyways. 1080p is the most widely adopted full HD format, and that isn't changing anytime soon. We're still years away from 4000p resolution TVs being viable for most consumers, so this is why everyone's eyes are so fixated on Sony and Microsoft for the next generation: they'll be forced to innovate because they can't just shove more horsepower into their machines. Sure, the 720 and PS4 might be slightly more powerful than the Wii U, but that will mostly be in terms of the operating systems and DRAM. I'm not saying that we've reached a graphical peak with gaming, but Microsoft and Sony can't just force the whole market to upgrade their TVs so that they can have more powerful consoles than Nintendo.
Thank you for informing us of this important information.
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID! THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID! TTTTHHHHAAAATTTT'SSSS WWWWHHHHAAAATTTT SSSSHHHHEEEE SSSSAAAAIIIIDDDD!!!
That's why I think Nintendo needs to graphically prepare for future technologies and the long-haul. I think they can and will do that now with graphics. I think that they will make an online at the very least as good as the PS3's.
Intelligent Systems has developed a third party game before. Dragon Quest Wars.
I know there is some humor there I'm not detecting...
I doubt that.
I didn't say a third party game. I said a third party SYSTEM.
I absolutely will. I'll be one of those folks you see camping out in the Lawn & Garden section of Wal-Mart days before launch. These is facts.
Rofl, is that a policy or something. That's where they put us too.
No... I understood your question quite well. I simply listed their only foray into the third party market as gaving developed Dragon Quest Wars for Square Enix.
Good luck even getting to the GC, knowing how Walmart operates you'll be lucky if the line does not wrap around the store. Plus some of the associates will likely hoard some systems somewhere; even though internal policy forbids it there is always one associate who will do it...
I don't know. The guys I waited for the Wii with set up a Gamecube and we had a little Melee tournament.
