There's a "The" in there. I know I'm a picky bastard, but this one needs to be nipped at the bud. The title is Metroid: The Other M.

I'm assuming it stands for Malkovich.

EDIT:
Aw, snap. The title art doesn't show the "The." I must have heard someone say it after the video showed.

Review of the video shows otherwise. Someone must have said "the" somewhere, despite the title art. Did Reggie mention it in closing?

The multiplayer demonstration looked like a rush to grab coins and get to the flagpole first. Dunaway mentioned that the game does have a single player mode, which itself can be played co-op with up to four players.

No mention of Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.

Banzai Bills were in the first Galaxy, I believe. I don't think you had to run away from them like in the Galaxy 2 video, though.

I was thinking the same thing today when I saw a sign that said "Attourneys - Auto injury, work injury." It's as though people are so bent on blaming their problems on someone else that they set up a lawyer shop for it.

I have delivered.

I noticed something while checking the document:

[C][B] [ ] [ ][ ][ ] Area: Meister Citadel/90-99F [ ] Inner Sanctum Elevator- To Main Control Center [ ] Length: 19 rooms [ ] [ ] [ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ][ ][C][ ] Key: [ ] - Room [C] - Checkpoint [B] - Boss room

I know it's the Mega Man way to be straight linear like this, but I think a few branching paths to find keys or whatever (a la Subspace Emissary) would add quite a bit to the overall enjoyment factor without turning it into "Metroidvania."

This gave me a Kirby and the Amazing Mirror flashback, and I don't think I want that. I'd rather have stages with a well-defined beginning and ending.

On an unrelated note, I was scrounging around in my music collection and found the music I determined as a "conceptual theme music" for my Villain. After re-listening to it, I noticed it'd make a nice fortress BGM, so the music artist(s) may use this as inspiration:

It was F-Zero X for N64. I took a quick poll to see who would be interested and who would be able to help with what, which generated sufficient interest to start the project.

"Who will help me make the editor?" I asked. "Oooh, me!" "I will!" "Me! Pick me!"

And then came the day when "Okay, time to work!" was the word of the day. "Oh, I don't think I can commit to that." "Sorry, this is beyond the scope of my capabilities." "Uh oh, looks like I'm going to be busy."

Lesson learned? The internet is even worse than the real world. With all the general moaning and complaining about how real life sucks, I probably expected it to be the other way around.

An editor was made. The plan was to make a new one, open-source, through community effort.

How effective are they really? Does putting them between posts really make people more likely to click them? If I give you enough money such that I surpass the revenue you'd get from ads in a year, will you take them away?

Questions, questions...

Well, I wasn't being entirely sarcastic with the donation thing. I've got my own expenses covered for next month already, which means all of my next pay check is going into my pocket. What's the cost of upkeep for this place on a monthly or yearly basis?

Wait, you mean people will voluntarily pay my rent and utilities? I'll take it. I'll save the employment for such a time when I need it. You know, like a backup plan for when things really go wrong.

EDIT:
This post is, of course, a parallel to the board here in that my home represents the hosting service and my job represents the ad revenue. It wasn't as obvious as it sounded when I typed it.

Normally sounds like a plan, though if people offer to throw money at me, I'll cover expenses out of that instead and if that fails, I'll fall back to the ever-reliable taxable income.

Philosopical considerations, is all. If you don't want to go that way, Xkeeper, I'll shut up about it.

Is he trying to equate N64->PS2 with Wii->PS3? Wouldn't it be a better assertion to suggest that Wii owners will become PS4 owners? I think a big reason for the statistic he cites is that GameCube had a relatively sucky catalogue of games compared to the PS2, so people looking for something interesting went the Sony route instead of Nintendo during the next wave of consoles.

In the first year of owning a Wii, though, I already had more games than I ever bought for GameCube, and my library continues to grow. Unless PS3 gets a lot of games that give me more satisfaction than the ones that have been coming out for Wii, I won't even start looking for that proverbial next level of entertainment.
