Once upon a time, Rare employees demoed a game that was detailed and loft.
Only to have people look at them blankly and cough.
They stood there for a while just to listen to them scoff.

So...guys. I am finally close to getting a 3DS!

Thing is the model that I found had 12 gigs. If I have a SD card as well, is that enough?

If you want a pretty good incentive to hate Microsoft and be weary of the Xbone, here it is. It's a big image and if someone thinks it will be an annoyance or a breach of forum rules, let me know and I will link to it instead, and be warned, because it will make you well angry.



Oh Microsoft... you just love killing dreams, don't you. :(

Actually this isn't too surprising, and I'm inclined to believe this is totally legitimate, as other official interviews with ex-Rare staff have basically said the same thing, but in far less detail. This is just another reason why I can't accept when people say what happened to Rare is their own fault. Yeah, they made some mistakes, but at least they still tried to continue their magic, and M$ just stomped all over it. :glare:

I have a thought, maybe, just maybe, instead of it being entirely Microsoft's fault, it is also the fault of Rare.
No, not exclusively either, but a combination.

Here's how: Microsoft looked at their statistics and demographics and saw they had a string of failures, and here's the kicker, it's all about people, maybe those particular people who worked on it were on the teams of failures. Maybe that demo and intro wasn't as grand as they make it out to be.

Maybe. . . just maybe. . .

Listen, none of us know the full details, the full story. It is folly to pass judgement when you do not have sufficient knowledge. Maybe my standard of 'sufficient knowledge' is just much higher than others :3
Come on, guys.

Your standard isn't as high as mine. *raises nose up in the air snobbishly* I don't even get how it is to be assumed he is the real deal because of some pictures. I'm not saying it is this or that, but my point is that we can't really say it is this or that.

That doesn't seem very intuitive.
Poison should poison everything.

And also, this is freaking Pokémon. We got 46 feet whales getting beat by 2 inch bugs. When, where, and how the heck was there ever logic in this=???
Also who is Power Girl? She seems to be popular for one reason or another but I haven't seen anything of her
Another variation of Supergirl from another DC Universe basically, who is also Superman's cousin. The only difference is the outfit and the buttercup cleavage.

Microsoft ruining things we love and Mortal Kombat is invading DC comics again.
I can see it now: THE NEW ROBIN IS... SUB-ZERO!!!! (and instead of being Bruce Wayne's son, he's his dad's uncle's brother's sister's former roommate)
MK stopped being relevant in 1998. I'm surprised every time they release a game in an attempt try to milk that dry franchise.
Why are you throwing this bad trolling attempt out here girl=???

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, SHOW RESPECT YOUR UNDISPUTED SUPER SMASH BROS. 3DS CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!!
SAKUUUUUUUUUUUUUURAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

(Some of the old school people will get the joke.)
People still scream that at tournaments as a joke, and it's still hilarious, especially since the timing is almost impossible to mess up.

Also, Dylan_Tnga made this famous.

Lastly, he needs to start a "Smash Wii U and 3DS might suck" thread, because he was dead on about Brawl. Although, to be fair he was somewhat wrong as to why it sucked. It wasn't because of Sakurai; it was because of Nintendo's terrible directing of the staff, Game Arts' lack of skill, and the Wii's lack of power, online, or really any form of new technology. But hey, at least modding the hell out of Brawl makes the game AMAZING!!!

Microsoft, thanks so much. You've finally managed to break the gem with your greediness.


I guess this is a good time to advertize this little kickstarter who tries to pay tribute to these games we loved.

MK is relevant to this day, lol somebody must not have heard of MK9 before

Don't really care about Scorpion being in Injustice, though

Always been more of an Ermac/Sub-Zero fan anyway

Lol when I thought that people were talking about MK, I thought they were referring at Mario Kart. So I started to think Automatic doesn't like Mario Kart.

Eheheh-heh?

The last Mario Kart was terrible, simply terrible.
The Wii one was meh but it did his job well, also the custom tracks boosted the length of the game a lot.
The DS one is incredibly overrated. Technical yes, but boring as crap.
Double Dash!! is still the best in the franchise, not a lot of tracks but damn, two pilots was simply genius.
The 64 one is pretty much dead. Epic back then, but it's the game which aged the worst I've ever seen.
I've never played the original and Super Circuit that much to say anything about them.

Diddy Kong Racing and Sonic Racing + Transformed are a lot more superior to everything Mario Kart has ever done, sadly.

My favorite in order:
1) Diddy Kong Racing
2) Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
3) Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
4) Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing
5) Crash Team Racing

I expect the next Sonic Racing to be incredible. Mario Kart 8 well, I'll buy day one, but it needs a major overhaul. Nintendo Kart would be a good start, with the mechanic of Double Dash!! to create fun teams. If it's just 7 in HD it will suck.

I wish Mario Kart would actually BUILD OFF of previous games instead of trying to do something new each time and completely forgetting what had been done before. "Double Seat" could have easily been a custom kart part, with bikes remaining as their own type of kart. Aside from balancing, kart racers seem like one of the easiest kinds of games you could make... So, why not add more to it.

What's wrong with 7 anyway. Was loads of fun.

Lack of game modes, lack of proper online, glitched tracks which contributed to kill the online, and basically a boredom to it. There was nothing to do, literally. At least DS had missions. 7 was rushed because 3DS was selling like **** and feels more like a demo than an actual game.
The only good thing is that they scrapped Waluigi /troll

Out of anger I'm gonna play Banjo-Kazooie right now.
:mad: Out of anger I'm gonna buy Banjo-Tooie from eBay right now. Maybe buy Perfect Dark, GoldenEye 007, and Conker's Bad Fur Day while I am at it. :awesome:

It is my gamer's dream for Nintendo to get Rare back just so Nintendo can release all those classic SNES/N64 games (plus Snake Rattle 'n' Roll) on Virtual Console... it was bad enough that you ruined what could have been Banjo-Threeie and made Nintendo remove Donkey Kong Country trilogy from Wii Shop... but Windows 8 is just crossing the line (my laptop is not a smartphone). You... you monster!

Just give me a track editor in the next Mario Kart. I've been wanting that since the DS.

''Character Balance & Improved Online is the only thing that's gonna determine if i am going to play the game longer than 6 Months to a Year.
NOT the story mode or the *NEW* Characters......''
This so much. This is especially the case for Smash 4, but gameplay is going to have to be a definite factor.
