I am, I have had all three consoles for a whole week and I've had the 360 and Wii since the Wii came out.

I agree though, XBL is very user friendly, they hit the nail in the head with their service. Sony and Nintendo can only hope to match their service, it looks like Nintendo won't match it though.

Anyways, this thing is just going around in circles.

BREAKING NEWS: BUY ANY DS GAME YOU WANT AT TARGET FOR ONLY $24

On topic: How does firmware work? When i wikid it i only got info on stuff like firm ware for the psp. Is it an actual update to your systems code? If it is then the wifi problem might be fixed, unless wifi is deeply integrated within the system...And i can't believe you guys are actually saying that you like Microsoft. Shame. Just a shame.

I'm hoping the SSBB will feature a random feature in addition to friend codes, just like Mario Kart DS or Metroid. The main issue I see is, as you said, having to go to MSN or something like that in order to get your friend to come online.

Maybe we could just send a message via the Wii? Oh, but then the Wii won't glow until you turn it off. @@ I hope Nintendo offers a firmware update for that by then.

It's probably because you would be too shy to play. D: Besides, you guys seriously don't want to play SSB against me. I'm far from the best, but I'm pretty confident I could lay you down. xD;

I really hope Brawl has a random feature too. I want to be able to sit down on a Friday night and play all night long against other people. One other thing from XBL I'd like to have is the notion of parties. You can have groups of people—say you and me—going from random game to random game. That way we'd always be playing together, but with other people as well.

But again. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying I like MS. I'm just saying they have something awesome with XBL. In fact, the 360 is the only place where they're really enjoying success based on the merits of their product.

Firmware can expand the capabilities of a device, yes, but it has limits. It wouldn't be able to change the system they're using for WFC.

TRIFORCE89 March 29th, 2007 7:10 PM

I meant a firmware update for the blue light. So it turns on before you reset the console. o.o

Abby3563663 March 29th, 2007 8:15 PM

Oh, right. Was he referring to your post? xD; That'd certainly be fixable, I'm sure. There's no in-game way to access the messages, though.

TRIFORCE89 March 30th, 2007 11:35 AM

No, but if it flashes while you play a game (which it can. There are fan mods which allow the light to pulsate to the in-game audio) then you can simply use the home button to check.

Yoshistar64 March 30th, 2007 4:46 PM

Hmmmm.... I have 5 friends in my Wii friend list, I play my Wii every single moment I can, and I get messages all the time, but when I do get a message in-game, it doesn't flash blue. I can tell if it's blue while I'm playing because of peripheral vision. It just never happens.

wakachamo March 30th, 2007 5:24 PM

Just for an update, we've got a scan from a Portuguese magazine with some new screens and details on the latest NiGHTS: NiGHTS Into Dreams. The interview was in Portuguese but that was no problem, and managed to at least make it understandable to people who speak the English language. XD

http://www.play-nintendo.com/playnintendo/content.php?content_id=809

What are your thoughts? I just don't have any idea as to what the online mode could be. :x

Yoshistar64 March 30th, 2007 5:52 PM

That was a pretty good deal, and now I respect that producer because he thought of just about everything: how we (Wii) play, having all the responsibilities of being a programmer, but I still don't get it. What is NIGHTS? Is it a SEGA platformer, or something else?

Famardy March 30th, 2007 6:19 PM

You guys will not believe this but Nintendo and Sega has confirmed that for the 1st, they're going to make a crossover game with Mario and Sonic based on the 2008 Olympics!!

^The game NiGHTS into Dreams... (either NiGHTS or NiD) was released by Sega in 1996 for the Sega Saturn. The story's basically two kids entering this dream world to avoid the real world from being taken over, with the help of this weird creature, NiGHTS. It's an action-adventure game, based around the idea and sensation of flight, using a combination of both 2D and 3D gameplay.

I at first thought this was a complete hoax by Nintendo, which is why I decided not to write that story over at Play-Nintendo, but I'm slowly starting to believe this... XD

TRIFORCE89 March 30th, 2007 7:48 PM

Sega has a website up. NOA released a press release. NOE made a comment. Miyamoto is confirmed to be working on it.

This is either real or an intricate April Fools prank.

Yoshistar64 March 31st, 2007 4:20 AM

Shenlong, I've seen those before, and I'm not falling for it again.

Everyone (the whole school) said that there was going to be a Mushroom Kingdom Hearts. I was the only one who said no. And let me answer some of Triforce's comments.
Sega can close the website anytime.
One person in the NOA/NOE could be a prankstar and might have convinced them.
Miyamoto has a sense of humor. You can tell by his smile.
The school I mentioned read it from several magazines and websites.

So like Triforce said, I believe it's an intricate April Fool's joke.

We're not fools.

Morkula March 31st, 2007 10:02 AM

I highly doubt Nintendo would go to the trouble of coordinating with Sega on all this, releasing a press release, doing interviews, and creating all the hype for the game if it's just an April Fools joke. Mushroom Kingdom Hearts was simply a one-page advertisement in EGM magazine - they do one EVERY YEAR for April Fools. This is different.

Yoshistar64 March 31st, 2007 12:04 PM

Well, I still won't believe it. If I guessed no but it wasn't a joke, it's okay. But if I say that it was true and it was a joke, then I would be mocked because people say I'm the smartest kid in the class (trust me I'm not). I hate being mocked.

Nintendo can do anything they want to successfully, or at least try to. Also, the Website was just a picture. Hey, everyone, look at me! I believe that this is real because I'm looking at a cool pic. No, that's not me.

Samurai X March 31st, 2007 10:52 PM

Yeah...I think this game is real. Believe what you will though. Also, if Sonic isn't in Brawl after this I would be surprised. If it is a joke then they got me, oh well.

That whole futuristic Zelda thing though, that's an April Fool's joke.

TRIFORCE89 April 1st, 2007 6:29 AM

I think the game is real. I just wish it wasn't. T_T;

Futuristic Zelda? O_o

wakachamo April 1st, 2007 8:20 AM

^http://www.joystiq.com/2007/03/31/april-fools-alert-1-wii-tvs-future-zelda/

Wii.TV just jumbled up a whole load of Star Wars and Final Fantasy artwork and stills, calling it a "Future Zelda". They didn't even bother coming up with a title, and personally even if this was true, I'd never buy it. Zelda + Future = Ruining the franchise as a whole.

TRIFORCE89 April 1st, 2007 9:14 AM

Yeah, I found it shortly after my comment. XD

Zelda needs something fresh and new. It needs to reinvent itself. The original way is fine for all the 2D games and the OoT way was good for N64-GCN. But we're on DS and Wii now. It needs to be fresh, new, and original. But...the future is not the right way to go. XD

I liked how on one of those concept art pieces there was a billboard for Coca-Cola. Lol

wakachamo April 1st, 2007 5:35 PM

^Rofl, exactly. We do need something fresh and new, but not too far off... XD

Abby3563663 April 1st, 2007 6:29 PM

I dunno, that might be pretty cool. At this point, I think Zelda needs to overcompensate to get away from the OoT mold. I'd play it. XD;

wakachamo April 1st, 2007 6:35 PM

^Phantom Hourglass, much? Until now it's looking like a pretty solid yet fun game, and not too close from the OoT formula as far as I can tell, especially considering multiplayer.

TRIFORCE89 April 1st, 2007 6:41 PM

Excuuuuuuuuse me princess!

You'd play a game with a motorcycle called Epona? ...

Shiggy's a liability. There a conflict of interest between him and Eiji. One cares about the story, one doesn't. Eiji's baby is MM. That game is awesome. If they held it off until the GCN that would beat OoT in most people's eyes.

I'd rather have many games like MM, than many games like OoT.

Eiji wants to go the extra mile, but Shiggy has to go and do his upend the tea table thing. @@

It's Nintendo though. And Zelda is the legendary franchise. So, any changes would be slow coming. But, please, please, please. Can I have another town other than Kakariko to visit? The Hidden Village doesn't count. One person and it's Kakariko! You gave me two! WTF?

T_T;

But no futureness. I don't want a cyber-punk Zelda. They can make it dark. It can look like a Tim Burton film (and it may. XD The staff loves Nightmare. Just look at the official art for MM. Very Burton-esque and cool looking), but no guns. And no heavy RPGness. It is an adventure puzzle game, and I want it to stay like that. Just, evolve please. T_T;

Abby3563663 April 1st, 2007 7:20 PM

Yeah, I don't actually think it'd be good. XD; Oh, did you guys see this?

I want one ♥

As Joystiq noted, that product is an AFs joke. XD

I don't know, I'd get a futuristic Zelda game. It'd probably be kind of fun. XD
