He might be referring to realizing the under-utilized potential of the GBA Cable through today's Gamepad instead. I had Pac-Man Vs. and would play it in groups of 4 people. I played as Pac-Man with a view of the entire maze on my GBA. While 3 of my friends played as the ghosts with limited "bubble" views of the maze. As Pac-Man you had the advantage of seeing where all of the ghosts were in the maze and you could plan routes to avoid them. As the ghost, you had a very small field of vision, forcing you to blindly run around the maze until Pac-Man came within your field of vision at which point you'd have stay with him to chase him town. The three players playing the ghosts would bark directions to each other as they tried to track down and trap Pac-Man. So, there you had 4 people all playing the same game simultaneously but having a very different experience from the main player. Everyone I played it with had a great blast, and I thought it was an extremely innovative concept at the time. What I think he is referring to, is bringing that concept back with the Wii U in that more than one person would be playing the same game, but the players with the Wii-motes focusing on the TV screen would be having a different experience than the player focused on the Gamepad. |
wow sounds interesting. i gusse it's a good idea. very interesting concept. who wouldn't want to play as one of the ghost?
