So why do you care? If some game developer chooses to make their game this way, who are the prude Nintenbabies to say that the audience that has been foaming at the mouth for this release can't have it because they're not mature enough for it?

so it would be wise to want to appease the largest number of people possible.
You want to know why this logic fails? It's because Japanese developers don't create shit to appeal to the most amount of consumers possible. Developers create shit THEY like and if it gains a following, they create content for their fans, not people who sit on the fence on whether or not they might enjoy it, because that disenfranchises the people who matter: their original fans. The mass appeal style approach fails in the long run (look at Halo 5 as a perfect example of trying to appeal to more people), it has an inverse effect.

We're talking about a culture that only cares about only it's fans so much, when they release a movie they just take a plain box and slap the title of the movie on it and stick in stores expecting it to sell. And it does. They're not going to waste time on trying to appeal to the masses, because they know their committed fans come first and they'll already buy the movie/game/book over someone who goes "well.....I need more information on it....."

And it's showing with Nintendo of America. They have been demonized to Hell and back for this, Nintendo is trying to use it's garbage western approach on a product that wasn't designed for that kind of advertising. Do you the developers who made Fates cares what you have to say on the subject of their work? They only care about the people who want to buy the game, and their mindset (the correct mindset) is conflicting with NoA and it's showing with the current reception Fates has before it's even released. Nintendo is shooting itself in the foot, and this is all ignoring the very simple truth that censorship regardless of intent or reason, is just plain bad.

Whatever faint interest I once had in exploring the Fire Emblem series has violently evaporated upon realizing where the franchise is currently headed--especially with regards to how it treats its female characters.

Verb, I have skimmed all five pages and I have got to ask since no one else has:

Are you interested in purchasing Fire Emblem Fates? Are you a fan of Fire Emblem?

You're not always the heart of the party fam.

Well, obviously.

You mean this?



The noose with the "anime portal" in it, with text saying "they're waiting."

It's genuinely one of the most clever and darkly hilarious images I've ever seen on the Internet, and it never gets old.

Episode III to me was the best considering there was more action than exposition, in terms of story telling, Lucas did himself a favor by having a gap between II and III with the Clone Wars which lead to a different personality Anakin that was probably the best out of the three we got. Also, the fighting (which we got plenty of) was pretty stellar.

Yeah me too. It's weird, but I think Episode 2 is probably my favorite of the prequels. On repeat viewings Episodes 1 and 3 are quite boring, but Episode 2 seems nicer to watch. Plus Obi Wan vs Jango is my favorite prequel fight.

Episode II had noticeably less JarJar in it though and the acting in I was pretty bland compared to II and III. Sure II was very melodramatic but at least half the cast didn't come off as planks of wood.

I'm sorry but I simply cannot get past that drunken line reading between Anikin and Padme that barely resembles any known form of human interaction, much less a romance that someone would willingly throw away their career as a Space Wizard over.

It doesn't take much for me to enjoy a movie, I was even alright with Transformers 2 and 3, but for god's sake Attack of the clones was legitimately hard to watch.

I would need to hear a longer version before I make a judgement call like that. A "full" version of V's Imperial March is roughly three minutes whereas this is only 47 seconds.

Slightly off-topic: Attack of The Clones was still IMO far better than The Phantom Menace which is currently a real challenge to watch from start start to finish.

Being remembered on B.net wasn't necessarily a good thing, especially if you weren't able to use your Halo emblems as your avatar as the opened the floodgates for mass impersonations.

If it's any consolidation, I'm not remembered anywhere either.

But I'm not crazy or anything, so I suppose that's a plus.

The Flood / Re: DVD region codes
« on: January 24, 2016, 04:34:24 PM »
I wasn't planning on having the TV over it if it had buttons on top, furthermore my TV is a 40 inch so if the TV platform was too big (which it looks like it is) I would have just cleared off shelf space for it. I just don't want it on the bottom floor because the cats could mess with it, and the middle floor is where I keep my cables and controllers. Furthermore unfortunately, The price is pretty steep for me. I wanted to get a used fat BD player because those only go for around 40-80 dollars however almost all of them are only region 1....

4. It's small i'll get a picture. But you shouldn't put your tv on top of it because the controls are on top of it and you might damage them.

Here it is compared to a ps4

I'll ask you since it would be faster than asking on Amazon:

1. Does it come with a remote?
2. How is the menu without a disc in it?
3. Does it come with an HDMI cable?
4. How small is it? I would prefer to have my TV on top of the player as a platform as it saves space but I would need to know before hand if I need to clear room on my shelf.

lol I just had this issue not even 2 weeks ago importing blurays from Britain

Let me find the region free bluray player I got off amazon

When over 90% of the current sites users have an account with only 1-2 years old, of course they're not going to have any idea who the old blood is.

The Flood / DVD region codes
« on: January 24, 2016, 03:58:50 PM »
So I'm about to import a DVD boxset from Japan, the problem is that Japan is region code 2 and the US is region code 1. I've looked online to see if either my PS3 or XB1 could have it's DVD region settings changed but I keep getting conflicting answers with some saying they're playing different region DVD's on theirs and others saying it's locked and the issue is too small to have a general issue answer.

I'd really rather not have to go on Amazon and buy a region free DVD/BD (I already know everything about BD region coding) since the box set is already going to break the bank slightly so I was wondering if any of you guys knew about whether or not some systems region settings can be changed.

I don't see a problem with you compared to other posters on here. Some of them on here (we all know one or two really bad ones) give the impression that they're desperate for the attention or are just inflating their post count.

The only ammo you're giving them is your reaction. If you want to be "trolled better" stop overreacting to weak bait.

I deserve better trolling than this. Lord knows I give you guys enough ammo. It's like someone said they were gonna rape me, but then just grabbed my balls a little

>Not having a consistent seller

You learn the lay of the land first and figure out the good marketers beforehand and observe for about a few months before you make a small test purchase on Petco mice.
