Video Game Chat Topic: NICK. STOP HOARDING GAMES YOU OLD BAG!

Twilight Princess is a Wii game though. Didn't realise you could get it on GCN also.

They released it for both systems, there's differences between the two versions apparently.

The main difference is that, since right-handed people are the majority and the Wiimote was supposed to "represent" Link's sword, the Wii version was mirrored horizontally so that Link was right-handed as well... and the entire world was flipped with it. I specifically sought out the GameCube version for that reason, even though it's rare (some Amazon copies cost over a hundred bucks!).

And graphical capabilities, though I'm not sure if that was greatly improved..

Well, that's something we'll never see again.

(Maybe, I dunno how poker probability works.)

What game is that?

Poker Night 2 by Telltale Games, on PC and other hi-def systems. You play Texas Hold 'Em against Brock from Venture Bros, Claptrap from Borderlands, Ashley Williams from Armies of Darkness, and Sam from Sam & Max.

I've heard of Texas Hold' Em as thats on Facebook although never really found out how to play it properly.

It's a variation on five-card draw poker. Everyone gets two hole cards, and with those and five community cards must try to make the best five-card poker hand, with a few rounds of betting (when there's 0, 3, 4, and 5 community cards).

I'm not very good at it, given my Poker Night 2 balance is at about -$450,000... when winning gets you $100,000 and losing costs you $20,000.

Don't ya love getting video game music stuck in your head? Argh.

Ain't that the worst, pops??

I've had the results song from Mario Kart Double Dash in my head lately. Know how you feel, bud.

Turtles in Time Boss Music.

Today I've gotten my hands on DuckTales Remastered and it's proving to be good fun and a good challenge. It took me about a half-dozen game overs to get through the Amazon level, but I did win eventually and on my last run, I managed to get through the entire level to the boss without losing a life. I'm certainly enjoying it a lot more than I did my emulation of the NES original.

Have an odd hankering for Ms. Pac-Man. Anybody else get that guilty gaming pleasure?

yea I do but it ain't for pac-man lolz mine is probably Doom or somethin the first one not the newer craps

I picked up Paper Mario 2 recently, and I'm currently in Hooktail's Fortress. It's got better gameplay and graphics than the original Paper Mario, though I can't say the music is better than the first one's. Still, it's a good game!

Also, I got Final Fantasy VII from Steam, and that's pretty great too. Completely different game, but still great! I like the way Barret is this big, burly man, and yet he's sweet at the core.

Heard Paper Mario is good Sage. I never get time to sit down and play video games anymore which is a shame.

Ninja Gaiden is a good series too.

Ninja Gaiden is good. The nintendo games of that are a nightmare.

Yeah they can't make many games a nightmare anymore intellect in today's kids is dropping like a boulder.

Heard Nintendo is considering the Wii U a flop. Lol It doesn't surprise me though I mean Nintendo has lost touch with a lot of its audience by focusing on making things kid friendly and driving off their adult audiences.

You hit it on the head brotha.

Yeah I saw that. Looks like the Wii U is not doing as well as Nintendo hoped. The 3DS however is doing really well.

They tried to improve something that wasn't broken, Terry. That's what went wrong, they really should of focused on getting older gamers more involved instead.
