This flood will be even more devastating and annoying than the Flood in the Halo series.

 

You can make traditional games in Flash, at least Old School 2D games.

 

 I know, I just really felt like expressing my hate and annoyance towards the flood in Halo, and it was just too easy to do in that post. :P

Flash games can be fun too...just rarely for prolonged periods of time.

Hey, flash games are awesome. I spent hours figuring out every level in Choronoton. And because flash is so cheap and avilable, you get crazy stuff like Rose & Camellia.

Flash games are almost the only PC games I play anymore.

 

I've never heard of either one of those. I am fixing that now.

Nintendo reaching out to another audience . Old schoolers.

This could mean PopCap games coming to Wii. That is huge actually. 40+ women do an amazing amount of gaming, it's just all flashed base so we don't consider it but this will have massive appeal to the Wii Fit crowd.

Nothing wrong with this. As far as I can tell, games still need to meet certain standards before Nintendo will release them on WiiWare, so who cares if the game is made with Flash or whatever?

Hopefully this will work with the soon-to-be-updated Wii browser for improved interweb performance.

 

Whatever happened to that update? We heard of it, then disappeared.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

It was scheduled for sometime this spring, just like that other announced project that fell off the radar: Storage solution.

All these things which Nintendo has announced, yet shut up about, makes me wonder if they've got some kind of "New Nintendo Experience" launch in the works.

GDC, perhaps? It's coming soon...
