Closed.

I'll be getting in touch with a few people, and I'll have the results in a week!

I'll leave the thread open, speculate away!

No, go ahead. I was just kidding around.

I have everyone's files downloaded, did I miss any? I'll be doing the playing/judging over the weekend. To the other judge, whoever you are I'll be forwarding my thoughts about that issue to you over the weekend as well.

Also, I totally skipped over any posts that talked about favorite levels. I don't want to get influenced before judging.

____________________

Aaaah, Ok, not reading any posts, must not be influenced!

I'm having a bit more trouble than I thought making the rating scheme fair for the final judgement, so I ask that you give me a little more time.

Other Judges, I'll have something for you tonight, sorry for the delay.

I know you're all excited for the results, I'll try to have them for you soon! :x

Well, this is not a contest, but a way for everyone to just take a bit of time and doodle. There is nothing to win, just a new theme each week to show off a bit of fun!

Draw as much or as little as you want! Next Wednesday I'll launch a new theme~

Yeah, I know the results for this contest aren't even out, but are you considering to do another one of these sometime? I've watched Eppy's playthrough video earlier (and recently rewatched the Raws of the Game Center CX SMW episodes) and feel like trying my hand at making SMW levels again and stuff

---

I'll let someone else run the next one. I'm going to be busy for a while.

Remember, a doodle does not need to have too much effort put in, just take some time and have fun~



I'm going to broaden the theme to include all video games, so come on, have a bit of doodle fun~

Have you been overusing your E-Cig? (Are you still using it?) Nicotine can cause some strange effects as the dose creeps up. (You know, until you die at the higher levels.)

What were you hallucinating?

The 3DS has 9/10 games in the top ten selling in Japan at the moment, and has outsold the DS in the same time period.

I mean really, it's like this every console change. I should dig up all the news-stuff after the Gamecube. (Mario on Xbox? The Fall of Nintendo!)

Nah, you're fine.

Even if you do get irritable/typotastic, it's only the fault of sleep.

Also, how many 5-hour energy shots were you using per day?

I'm finishing up the ratings for the vanilla contest, looking over my Pokemon hack and downloading something.

What about everyone else?

Heck, even gamefreak now decided to make B&W 2 for the DS and not for the 3DS. :I

That's a time/assets thing. It would cost a shit-ton of time/effort to port over all the BW stuff to 3ds (and redraw everything for the new resolution.)

They can make a DS version that can be played on the 3DS, and sell to both sides for profit while working on Pokemon Chrome and Pokemon Firefox.

They're finding for the very first time now that they're selling the console at a loss that suddenly their attach rate will matter a lot. Who knows, maybe the 3DS will finally turn Nintendo into something a bit less third-party unfriendly.

---

You think it's selling at a loss? At it's current price, it's selling for a profit, just less of one than Nintendo would of liked.

Also, as of 46 weeks in, it's beat the GBA for consoles sold in the same time period (in Japan).



I love that curve though. It's such a strange thing.

From Nintendo's investor presentation:
I would like to tell you next about the product profitability of the Nintendo 3DS hardware, which affected our profit the most in the last fiscal year. As I informed you before, in the first half of this fiscal term we will get out of the situation that we sell the hardware below cost. We anticipate the improvement of the product profitability of the hardware alone.

---

Huh. It should still be below cost for parts. I guess they must be factoring in R&D into the cost.
