EDIT: it would behoove me to read up on currently running contests and realize why a review looks the way it does before I start judging it. Post left up for entertainment value.



Interesting article, though it's obvious that the game reviewed was merely a good example of a broader point you were making and not so much an analysis of this title. Given the nature of the title, this doesn't appear to be a problem, however.

I own a DS but not a Wii, and given how much REAL gaming this little baby has provided, I personally have no problem with however much fodder Nintendo wishes to add that's of little or no interest to the inner gaming crowd. The Wii is a bit of a different story as I have to search a lot harder for games that I'd like to have.

And Twilight Princess I'll just grab the GC version of, someday. :P

He's a fiesty little fellow, this bside guy. I like the cut of his jib.


For us. For them. For you.

Yes, his opinion runs suspiciously similar to your own, does it not?

Just look in his blog and you'll discover the truth! =D

I like this review because it almost feels like EmP is getting something out of his system with this, kind of like that Final Fantasy VII review I wrote a while back.

The one problem that I have with it is that it seems to point the finger solely at Nintendo, when frankly, a lot of the software he's complaining about comes from third-party developers hoping to follow Nintendo's example. It's especially out-of-place considering Nintendo had nothing to do with the game in question, but I doubt this bside fellow was concerned with conveying an accurate tone.
