Hey guys, I return.

Been inactive for the last year so I'll quickly give you a rundown of my favourite Nintendo stuff for the last year.

Nintendo Wii - Brilliant.
Twilight Princess - Awesome.
Pokemon Diamond - Addictive
Metroid Prime Hunters - <3
Super Paper Mario - Bought, yet to play.

So anyway, yeah, I'm back and planning on being more active this time around.

...I like how inactive this club has become. I claim to have little time to do anything, and I'm dominating this page Welcome back btw, Divi-Dead.

Maybe it's because there's kinda a lack of new good games coming out for the Wii. Not much to discuss. I mean, Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Mario Galaxy are coming out soon, and Metroid Prime 3 is out now, but other than that...

I'm still at the beginning of Twilight Princess because I can not catch a damned fish. I caught an initial fish and have caught the cat's attention, but I have not been able to catch a second one. I've been told that I need to jar the bee larva and use it as bait with my rod in order to catch one... but where do I get a jar? And how come I was able to catch a fish without one? The walkthrus on Gamefaqs say you just need to catch one fish and then catch another one. Blargh. I like how my friend put it best: "You're supposed to be enjoying this huge epic story... and you're stuck catching a fish." Dammit.

I also haven't touched Wii Sports yet. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom

Haha!! Taco, guess what! You are no longer dominating this page muahaha!!!

I'm glad to be back at TFF, I might not have time to be very active, but I should at least post a little more then never as of now, with this club being my priority.

Firstly about the fish thing Taco, I am at least 99% sure that you do not need to get any bee lure for your rod, I'm also sure you don't need to do anything because I caught a fish immediately after I got the rod and then straight away caught a second fish without move a step. Sorry if this dosn't help but I'm pretty sure you should be able to catch a second fish, check the manual as you may not know how to do it and got lucky the first time. I'm not insulting your competance as a gamer (Don't hit me) I'll confess I had trouble using the fishing rod myself at first and I got stuck at the fishing bit because the damn cat started following me and I thought I had to take it somewhere, took me an hour to realise I was wrong. Good Luck with the fishing Taco.

In other news I've played Super Paper Mario halfway through and I'm quite disapointed, If you liked 1000 year door, You'll discover that on Super Paper Mario they have chainsawed the RPG elements we all enjoyed so much and made it almost entirely a 2D platformer. There are no badges, you can't choose what you want to level up, the game does it for you and many others. I beleive the game now has merit as a 2D platformer and not an RPG, so don't say I didn't warn you.

Finally I want to tell you all about my new channel on Youtube where I review games using video footage I collected myself and this includes both old and new games. As a nintendo fanboy I don't think I'll be able to help dominating it with nintendo games, so please check it out. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=VGVR It just so happens I'm going to upload a review for Super Paper Mario tomorrow, so you can hear more of what I think there.

Nah, just kidding. Thankee for the advice, however. I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually... heh. The thing is, I've read how you're supposed to fish and I've tried that, but it doesn't seem to work for me. The fish are like, "No."

In other news, I bought Super Mario 64 off the Virtual Console yesterday. I then went to buy something else, and my Wii's internet connection promptly gave me a big "fuck you." Yay... Oh well.

Can you get Chrono Trigger on the VC, though? I want to play it again... I'm half tempted to get Breath of Fire 2, as well. Anyhoo...

The fish can talk!! Wow!! j/k

http://www.vc-reviews.com/available_now.php

According to this list it dosn't look like Chrono trigger is on the virtual console, that's a shame. But they have Breath of Fire II. I'm guessing you knew that already though.

I played Chrono Trigger recently and I used Chrono, Robo and Ayla as my team. Interesting combination the power of the prehistoric and the futuristic.

Well, I know this isn't Nintendo related.

Did anyone watch an awesome movie called Superbad. One of the best movies I've seen this year I rekon.

I finally caught the damned fish last week when I took my Wii over to my friend's house, and everyone was watching me. I caught it on the first try. Then, I couldn't catch another one. Since that time, I've played Twilight Princess up to revisiting that forest place in the shadow realm. I really like what I've played so far.

At the same time, I've been playing Breath of Fire 2 (yeah, I knew it was available. Heh.) Downloaded it last week, along with Kirby's Adventure and the internet channel. I've gotten to Windia, and I have Katt, Nina, and Sten in my party. I played this back in 2001 (actually about the time I first started coming to TFF... woah.) So I remember a lot about it. I'm going to try to do certain scenarios different this time to see what happens. Anyhoo...

Yay Taco, now if only you could cook the fish up and celebrate your victory properly. That would be Awesome

I actually tried playing Breath of Fire, don't remember which one. For a few hours and for some reason I thought it was quite boring. I think I found the character development to be too basic, like you just level up and gain stats and spells. But I can see that a lot of people like it, so now I wonder if I should play it again.

So how does it compare to Final Fantasy in terms of story and options?

Oh, also I'm looking for a certain game to review on the Super Nintendo. Heh, I'm looking for the worst game ever on it. So anyone got suggestions for the worst game in history for the Snes?

hey look i'm here and not somewhere else! i bought a ps3, does that mean that i'm going to hell? it's amazing though, what a better system the wii is. obviously the graphics/scope of a game like warhawk is simply impossible on the wii hardware - but when i plugged in my ps3 for the first time, there was a good half hour wait installing firmware/installing game components before i could get my first crack at virtua fighter 3. there's so much rig-a-maroll to go through before you can even get into the game the first time you load it it's retarded.

the wii is just so much slicker - if only it had just a little more graphical juice. then again, i think super mario galaxy will change a lot of people's opinions on what the wii is truly capable of...

SeTzertrANcer: I would say that the way you described the character development of whatever BoF game you played reminds me much of the first Breath of Fire. The characters pretty much had no character development whatsoever. It was like "I am the representative of this race/area. I am going to help you on your quest now." I would say that Breath of Fire 2 definitely had better character development than the original. I would also say that it doesn't compare to games like Final Fantasy 6 as far as story and character development go, however. It's still a fairly fun game, and definitely more lighthearted than FF6 (although it has an interesting twist as far as the main villain goes... interesting, blatant, and I'm not sure how I feel about it.)

postalblowfish7: Welcome back, bruthah! Haven't seen you around for some time. I hope all is well in over-there-land.

While I was in Yellowstone this Summer, my roommate got a PS3. He played a lot of Resistence: the Fall of Man, Fear, and we both played a lot of Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion (I can't help but enjoy that series. Every time I play one of the games in the series, it claims a little more ownership of my soul...) He got other games too, but I never saw him play them much. I was very impressed with Resistence; it looked like a lot of fun. It was even fun to watch. Made me want to see Aliens again. Of course, I also enjoyed Oblivion immensely. At one point, I had to stop myself from playing it, though... it was consuming all my free time (when my roommate wasn't playing it.)

I'm looking forward to Super Mario Galaxy as well. Actually, I'll just be honest and say the biggest reason I got my Wii was so that I could play Smash Bros. Brawl. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom

So where's all the othe homies at, like Maxpower, oh and is GLC, aka General Le,o aka Dyluck etc, still around. As great as it is that I'm one of the only people posting here I remember the good days when I could post 4 times more often cause everyone else was. We gotta revive this awesome club dudes.

I've been watching a series of videos on Gametrailers.com called Top Tens, where they talk about the top 10 so and sos in gaming. http://www.gametrailers.com/screwattack.php I saw this one called Top Ten 2D shooter and they put U.N. Squadron at number 1. Please I know as game that beat every game they had on that list, Tyrian for the PC. It is still to this days the best 2D shooter I've ever play and was released in 1997 I think. I had the biggest selection of weapons every, that looked cool, not simply bullets going in different directions and a story mode with an actual story. It was Awesome, you'll see I wrote a review for it in my signiture.

anyway that my update for today

Hail Nintendo!

and

Praise the Lord, Miyamoto

Clearly, that's not going to happen. We're the only two bothering to post in here on a consistent basis. Everyone else is "too cool for school" to post in here anymore. Or possibly on TFF at all.

Anyhoo, I reserved my copy of Brawl the other day. $20 down, because I felt like it. I also downloaded Yoshi's Story and DKC 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. I appreciate both. Anyhoo...

Yay I made the 700th post, that's awesome.

@Taco (Who else) Yeah looks like I had the bad luck of coming back to TFF at a pretty inactive time.

I always enjoyed retro gaming but a recent development has taken it to a new level. Multiplayer Retro Gaming. A mate I mine got a PC contoller and we have started playing Snes classics. Good thing too I was getting bored of playing just RPGs on my own. We are going to be trying out Double Dragon and Contra III next time. We also LAN played Starcraft, awesome stuff.

Well then, there's likely a new fastest character in the Smash Brothers universe, and his name is Sonic. Check it. I will likely still play as Fox, but yeah. Anyhoo...
