And now the link's DOWN. What the hell is with gaming news, I call censorship shenanigans.
That's strange.... it was working whenever I'd posted it.
Yeah, at least I saw it before it got taken down.
Not sure if this should be gaming news or general, but it's Valve-related so I might as well throw it here:

MvC2 announced for iPhone and the like. (http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/apr/20/marvel-vs-capcom-2-announced-apple-ios-platforms-screen-shots/)
This would be kind of cool except after Capcom handled the Mega Man X port.....yeeeeeeeeah I'll pass. That and I've pretty much sworn off of buying Capcom games until they get their shit together, and I MEAN IT THIS TIME
It doesn't help that I'm more interested in getting an Android anyway.
LOL. Good luck with that, Capcom.
Why not just bring it to a plausible platform like, I dunno, the VITA?!
That's asking too much from the same company who dropped frames on an alleged port of a game on hardware that iPhone/iPad etc. easily run rings around and having PS3 exclusive characters on-disc on the 360.
aaaaaaaand i was right (http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/apr/24/gameplay-footage-ios-version-marvel-vs-capcom-2-touch-screen-controls/)
Although they do get points for including the original intro.
Anyone else notice how they mashed LK several times? Remember what happened in the original when you hit a light strength twice? Yeaaaahhhhhhh....
Also looks like they fucked up the super background.
One punch and one kick button, judging from the video.
YEAH, THIS WILL TOTALLY CONVINCE ME TO GET AN IPAD. (or the port itself if it comes to Android)
Also what the fuck did they do to the logo?!
Congrats. You hit 100,000. (http://www.facebook.com/GetMeOffTheMoon)
Too bad Legends is too niche to actually sell 100,000 units on launch for a prototype version.
They took NINE months to get to this point. Not to mention the past months abrupt and sudden growth is shady looking at best.
For fuck sakes move on.
Nintendo lost $533.8 million last year. (http://arstechnica.com/gaming/news/2012/04/nintendo-pinning-hopes-on-3ds-sales-to-turn-around-historic-annual-loss.ars)
Considering their fuckup with the 3ds I can't say I'm surprised.
Every time I look at a 3DS I just imagine "The Lonely Man" theme.
Speaking of which, that's another damn good reason to keep Legends 3 cancelled.
In related news Nintendo will NOT reveal the price of the Wii U at this years E3 (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/5905602/nintendo-wont-be-revealing-the-wii-us-price-at-e3), despite it being scheduled for a worldwide 2012 launch.
They're probably trying to balance not having another disaster like the 3DS price cut and still being able to make profit on each unit, which they don't on the 3DS anymore.
Also New Super Mario Bros 2 will be offered as a digital title (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/5905603/new-super-mario-bros-2-will-be-nintendos-first-proper-downloadable-game) or retail, something unheard of for the company.
They probably have some hidden "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY" weapon. That is the only explanation.
You know that Wreck-It Ralph movie coming out? You know, the Disney movie directed by that writer from The Simpsons about video games?
Well, get ready to shit your pants. (http://insidemovies.ew.com/2012/04/25/wreck-it-ralph-cameos/)
Capcom's not desperate enough to pander to you idiots who create facebook groups whose target is equivalent to the total sales of most modern Megaman games on the DS (http://www.rockmancorner.com/2012/05/100000-strong-milestone-has-no-bearing.html).
They didn't manage their target goal within a suitable amount of time. By now, Mega Man Legends 3: Prototype Edition would probably be far out of it's market testing phase, and canned because sales proved to be only marginally better than, say, Megaman ZX Advent.
QuoteIt's not going to be able to reverse the situation.. for now, at least.
Hahahahahahahahahaha, "for now, at least."
Fucking Christ, how can they STILL be in so much denial?

I still wonder why they chose Zangief to be one of the bad guys when he and Honda actually teamed up to rescue all of the dolls from the Shadaloo base when it was about to blow up in Alpha 3.
To be fair, he WAS a bad guy in the live action movie, so that's one time at least. Plus you could argue that he's really brutal in matches so that could kind of make him a bad guy, in a sense. Then again Akuma DESTROYS YOUR SOUL in fights and he's way more of a bad guy....actually, forget what I said, I don't want Akuma anywhere near this movie.
But yeah, they should have used another Capcom villain. I would have liked to see Dr. Wily myself.
I recall seeing a news post on TMMN about Wily being there anyways.

QuoteAccording to GameFront, parent company IGN has stated that they, "Believe that the idea of a single-purpose PC download site like FilePlanet is one that, unfortunately, has passed."
They also noted that everyone who was working at the site has been moved to other projects.
So, if you've been storing your old Quake mods over at FilePlanet, now might be a good time to move them.
:(
There's a banner on Fileplanet that says "Note: FilePlanet is no longer being updated and is in the process of being archived," so hopefully (key word: hopefully) the content there should be here to stay. Doesn't excuse what they did to their webhosting services (Classicgaming, Quakeworld and the like) though.
Fucking shit, that's one of the few trusted places you can get patches and mods for old games.
For dumb pre-E3 rumors this takes the cake (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/5911725/starfox+metroid-team+up-rumored-for-wii-u), Star Fox-Metroid crossover. Foxtroid?
QuoteSamus' ship would be pilotable like Fox McCloud's; McCloud would be a character in a third-person sequence.
Did Star Fox Adventures not hint that this was a bad idea for the series?
They tried it again in Assault so apparently not.

In other news the studio responsible for the Mortal Kombat reboot is making a DC fighting game. (http://www.joystiq.com/2012/05/31/warner-bros-announces-injustice-gods-among-us-a-new-dc-fighti/) No not Mortal Kombat Vs. DC just DC.
Presently confirmed characters include Batman, Superman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, Harley Quinn, Lex Luthor and Solomon Grundy.
SOLOMON GRUNDY WANT PANTS TOO
Could be fun. Though I don't like the implications of the story as to why they're fighting each other, but hey, it's about time we get a fighting game that's just DC characters.

But the trailer's still awesome, and Bowser and Vega/Bison just look great.
EDIT: Just now noticed Kano. This is gonna be cool.
The reason Dr. Wily was cut is because Capcom wants nothing to do with Mega Man. I thought you people knew this by now.

What changes could they possibly make that'd be big enough for a new console? Not trying to be pessimistic— just realistic. Honestly, I think the current generation should be the last. They kinda lost their killer app since Rockstar went multi-platform with GTA, Metal Gear Solid should be over (soon), and they haven't done shit with Parappa other than add him to PlayStation All-Stars which means absolute jack shit if you look at every crossover fighting game/brawler ever.
MAYBE if they bring back Parappa with some sort of rap name to compete and set it apart from the Guitar Hero, DJ Hero, and Rock Band crap, that could be it. I'd be interested regardless, but I still need to put my own tastes aside and try to think of the casual public. Of course, they have inFamous and Uncharted, but I'm unsure just how popular those games really are.
Also, this deserves double post because if this turns out to be accurate, then holy shit, SNK has finally made a move that makes sense and will save them. (http://cdr.xpaw.ru/search/?q=king+of+fighters)

Funny, if they did that, they'd be giving up over half their market. 360 was the budget power console; cheaper than the PS3 at its introduction, after all. By making users require an internet connection would be alienating the boonies of their current userbase.

It seems to be a rumor for every non-Nintendo console at this point.

There's some footage of a guy fighting Magica de Spell, badly as well now, (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/5991971/of-course-you-want-to-watch-nearly-seven-minutes-of-ducktales-remastered) all the bosses are getting changed to be more complex so they say. I dunno what they could really do for the rat.

Since this is the 3DS thread I'll post this here. (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/10/miyamoto-interested-in-3d-remakes-of-2d-zelda-titles/)
This makes me upset, why can't you leave good games alone Nintendo? Or if you REALLY want a 2D Zelda in 3D (that doesn't even make sense) why not, make a new one?
Looks like Nintendo agreed and made him turn the project into A Link to the Past
2. (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/nintendo-is-making-the-legend-of-zelda-a-link-to-the-p-474844199)
Drawing on the wall? Strange, but OK.
Also, Earthbound on Virtual Console (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/17/earthbound-virtual-console-north-america-europe-release/). Too bad it's for WiiU only.
I'm surprised, sorting out all the sampling rights issues must have taken forever. Unless of course they actually went and replaced the music in question, which I can't see happening.
They're also making a new Yoshi's Island (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/17/new-yoshis-island-game-coming-to-3ds/), but after the DS one I don't think anyone gives a shit.
I don't remember how far I got in the DS one or why I stopped. Just didn't hold my attention for too long.
As for Earthbound, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the musical references in the text got changed because all you need there is a hex editor and a few hours to kill.
LttP is one of my favorite games ever and the fact that a sequel is happening makes me giddy as fuck. :clpeng:
The next XBOX to be revealed May 21st (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/24/xbox-reveal-may-21/).
There's rumors going around Nintendo isn't going to hold a traditional E3 conference this year (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/24/nintendo-not-doing-e3-press-conference-holding-smaller-closed-e/). At the very least whatever they do this year is going to be different than any of their past showings.
Considering they'd mostly have software, it doesn't really surprise me. There wouldn't really be much of a benefit.
Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition announced for PC. Digital release July 3, Retail release August 6. :mrox:
PS4 confirmed for 2013 in Europe (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/24/playstation-europe-ps4-ad-says-coming-2013/), so we can most likely assume the same for US.

Hope you weren't looking forward to a new F-Zero or Star Fox any time soon (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/06/20/dont-get-your-hopes-up-for-f-zero).

Wow. RIP.
Can't say I'm entirely familiar with him but that sucks.
Also, they're finally digging up the site at Alamogordo to determine once and for all whether or not Atari actually buried tons of hardware in a landfill, including thousands of unsold copies of E.T. (http://popwatch.ew.com/2013/07/01/et-videogame-landfill-new-mexico/)
Capcom will be releasing yet another SF4 update, this one will port in some SFxT characters (Rolento, Elena, Hugo and Poison) and a "character never seen in Street Fighter before". (http://shoryuken.com/2013/07/13/rolento-elena-hugo-poison-heading-to-street-fighter-iv-in-update-fifth-character-never-seen-before/)
The wording of the last one has me thinking they'll just port over Haggar from MVC3.
No, watch it be BBAMM because it's SFxT and that takes zero effort to port over if you've seen any of the hacks.
Ono confirmed that it's not BBAMM and while we're at it, it's not Asura either.
maybe it could be Maki?(Maki appear in SFZ3Max) or other final fight character
Well, actually...
http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/jul/17/5th-ultra-street-fighter-4-character-will-be-making-their-fighting-game-debut/ (http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/jul/17/5th-ultra-street-fighter-4-character-will-be-making-their-fighting-game-debut/)
So, that rules out Maki (they said it would be someone WHO HAS NOT BEEN IN STREET FIGHTER, so why would you even suggest that?), Haggar, and Kyosuke.
... Forte. Has to be.
... right? ;~;
Probably another Final Fight character that hasn't been in a fighting game like Edi. E, Belger (with Cyborg Belger and Zombie Belger alternate outfits) or any of the various other grunts.
OR if they count SFxT as a crossover game and not a Street Fighter game they could, in theory anyways, have a guest Tekken character provided they threw enough money at Namco. That seems unlikely though.
About fucking time (http://earthbound.nintendo.com/).
Bonus points for scanning the old players guide that originally came with the game. (http://earthbound.nintendo.com/playersguide/)
Damn, no 3DS version? RPGs in that fashion are really more appropriate for handhelds IMO.
But, Shantae was released for the 3DS VC so that's cool I guess.

Did you read the article at all? It says that the character
has never been in a fighting game.
But Zombie Belger would kick ass.
Actually I just forgot Revenge was a fighting game my mistake. That pretty much rules out everybody from Final Fight but Carlos and characters from Streetwise which nobody gives a shit about, so yeah it's probably something else.

I have seen talk about something called REMEMBER ME but the only thing that comes to mind is
Remember Me in HD? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_JFIS0ga5o#ws)
So... Anthony confirmed for HSF4?
They're talking about this video game Capcom published a few months back (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remember_Me_(video_game)). It was rather forgettable.
So it's not that likely.

Quote from: Siliconera
- It is a Capcom character.
- It isn't Asura or Bad Box Art Mega Man.
- Ultra Street Fighter IV will mark this character's fighting game debut.
- It is a character that isn't on anyone's radar.
- The character will be a perfect fit for the Street Fighter universe.
Perfect fit, not on anyone's radar... I'm starting to think it's either Sho from Captain Commando or maybe even Super Joe from Commando (Arcade, NES). I seem to be the only person who remembers the original Commando since it was a big part of my childhood (because it was the only game that could run without having to constantly use tricks to get the NES to work).

In different general gaming news, THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT (http://comicbastards.com/sdcc-13-shiftylook-announces-namco-high-browser-based-dating-sim/).
Damn it, I misread the URL and I thought Namco was releasing a Bowser dating sim.
Same here. Because of Neon's reaction it seemed like it may have been the case.
Did Jesuszilla just mention that he would fuck Bowser?
Admit it, you'd play it too just to see how they characterized Bowser to the point where you can have dates.

WTF?
Well that proves for sure Nintendo realized 3D wasn't enough to sell the system if they're making a version without the feature at all. (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/introducing-the-nintendo-2ds-no-thats-not-a-typo-1214807721) Would think after how many name confusion problems they've had over their products they'd name it something else though.
Oh the Wii U is getting a price cut in related news. (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/wii-u-price-drops-50-effective-september-20-1214840727)

Quote from: @Nintendo__2DS (Twitter)how many stories you think we'll see about consumers confused about 2DS playing 3DS games
I didn't even think about the game packaging.
Nintendo really didn't think this through, did they?
I wonder if original DS and 3DS games will be playable on the 2DS
Yes, they will.
Though it seems that the 2DS screen is just one huge screen, but the top is covered in plastic. (http://www.Self-loathing playa haters.com/forum/showthread.php?t=664101)

I'm probably the only one on here who gives a shit, but someone's making a fan-made sequel to Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Jurassic-Park-Operations/317023251752870?hc_location=stream).
Hiroshi Yamauchi has died. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-24160150)
Today Valve announced SteamOS, (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/09/23/steamos-streams-from-computer-to-a-big-screen-using-linux/) a computer to TV streaming thing and possibly the software component of the console that's been rumored for over a year now.
Valve is going to be making two more announcements, the next of which is in two days.

They finally dug up and found the ET cartridge landfill. (http://arstechnica.com/gaming/2014/04/landfill-excavation-unearths-years-of-crushed-atari-treasure/)
The legend has been confirmed. This is beautiful, so beautiful, and makes the history of gaming so much richer.
Like, can you name any film or music album that was so bad, it caused a market crash, leading the creators to bury the rest of the copies in a landfill?

Ugh. (http://corrupt, adulterating shitbags.com/5921919/the-3ds-xl-getting-its-own-circle-pad-pro) You had the chance to fix this Nintendo.
I LIVE
And they finally did, now with a few upgrades (http://www.siliconera.com/2014/08/29/new-nintendo-3ds-new-nintendo-3ds-xl-announced-powerful/)
Well at least that's... something. I wonder how many games will take advantage of the more powerful hardware.
Also LOL (http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/09/05/team-fortress-2-poster-mistaken-for-us-propaganda-on-russian-state-television/?ns_campaign=article-feed&ns_mchannel=ref&ns_source=steam&ns_linkname=0&ns_fee=0).
3D Realms are back (in Interceptor-helmed form) and are offering pretty much their whole back catalog (https://3drealms.com/catalog/3d-realms-anthology_50/) for sale. (Save for games that they've made freeware, Prey and Max Payne). And they've got a thing for indie devs too coming up apparently.
