Maybe the new Nintendo will actually take a look at this and consider it good enough for release on the VC itself? It shouldn't be too long before GBA games start appearing on there.Matrix wrote:Nintendo should release Earthbound on VC next Monday to hype it =P
I'd gladly pay for this as a VC title. It'll be probably $8 or $10 for it and that's fine for this type of gameMatrix wrote:Perhaps as a Wiiware title, if they talk to the guys who worked on this project (which I know they are in contact with). I know I would enjoy it, and would spend on it.
You're assuming Nintendo actually has its finger on the pulse of its fans. If history - and my visits to Nintendo World - has shown anything it's that they have very little understanding of their fanbase and what they like/want. I'd be shocked if they didn't try to pull this translation soon, that would be more like themMatrix wrote:Actually, now would be an opportune time to release Earthbound on VC because this release has people thinking about it again; a good chance to sell more copies than they normally would.
So the fact that they are in fact bringing Earthbound to the VC is just purely a coincidence, because your "many visits to " this "Nintendo World" gave you perfect insight into how this multinational corporation functions in its market research departments?Zeus wrote:You're assuming Nintendo actually has its finger on the pulse of its fans.

They were talking about EB coming to the VC a long time ago.....Matrix wrote:So the fact that they are in fact bringing Earthbound to the VC is just purely a coincidence, because your "many visits to " this "Nintendo World" gave you perfect insight into how this multinational corporation functions in its market research departments?Zeus wrote:You're assuming Nintendo actually has its finger on the pulse of its fans.

Excuse me for responding to what you actually wrote rather than your many years of deep frustration that I should somehow know and care about.Zeus wrote:They were talking about EB coming to the VC a long time ago.....
You really can't tell when someone's just spewing off on a company, can you? Did it ever occur to you that this comment was made as a result of MANY years of frustration with the actions of a company which makes a product I really like?
