    That picture of Brad is the most brotastic what with the fronting and everything.

    Jeff on the other hand is just creepy, Vinny looks goofy/whimsical, Drew is more classic bro to Brads suave wigger bro, Patrick looks far too classy despite the cheep beer, and Alex looks more like a homeless man who was given alcohol by other patrons of the bar.

    So I've recently been checking out footage of Killer Instinct

    That game looks pretty neat! Mainly because it looks like it plays like Street Fighter and not like old Killer Instinct

    And their pay-model is extremely intriguing to me

    If I were getting a One at launch I'd be all over that

    I'd been keeping up with 8-4 for a while but there are times when I really just kinda want to smack Mark McDonald in the face

    Not hard mind you

    Probably not even a real slap

    Just enough that maybe he'd think a little bit more when saying stuff

    Normally he's fine, but man. Every now and then.

    It played terribly at TGS, not sure if it was their set up or the current build or what but things felt unresponsive and mushy. Which is the last thing you want in a fighting game. The chain system is either incredibly unintuitive or the arcade stick was set up wrong (which is possible). I was really, really not impressed though.

    But I mean, with their pay-model no reason to not try it at launch (assuming you have an X1).

    wellllll let's be fair now

    it's good when it wants to be

    usually they couldn't be bothered

    but when they take off their weighted training clothes and crank out a majora's mask or a wind waker or a mother 3

    oof, look out

    Playing earthbound again with stilts it is just astounding to me how much that game is bursting with charm from word one

    And while a lot of the credit goes to the original writers/designers the localizers did a damn fine job

    Every bit of dialogue feels just slightly stilted, almost like a poor translation, but it seems juuuuust in control enough that i don't think that's the case

    It's just a weird, stilted world where none of the seams come together quite right

    Does Mother 3 really count

    Wasn't it translated by some guy who doesn't even work for them as a fan thing?

    Also is Majora's Mask a well-written game? I didn't know the story was what people liked about that game

  • -Tal-Tal Registered User regular
    majora's mask is arguably the best written game

    Nintendo is probably the best at minimalist writing (though agreed about the only when they want to be sentiment)

    They and their localization teams can pack a lot of charm without a lot of words, which is a hell of a skill

    That said I would not call Majora's Mask the best written game

    It has arguably the best overall presentation in an internally developed Nintendo game, but in terms of actual words it isn't even the best written Nintendo game, much less the best written game.

    The translation of Mother 3 was a project by the fan community yes

    They offered to give the rights to it to Nintendo free of charge so that they could officially release the game in America for basically no cost but Nintendo snubbed them

    The fan translation project worked very hard to preserve the original Japanese int he script though and I think its fair to give Nintendo (well, shigesato itoi) the bulk of the credit

    And depending on what you mean by "writing" yes the writing of majora is fangoddamntastic

    I gotta give it to mgs2

    But majora and wind Waker are both probably top five for me

    Shadow of the colossus and mother 3 probably round out that list

    the best written game is tetris
