Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Nintendo vs. Sega

There is no more "Nintendo Versus Sega," anymore. They're the same company now, remember? After the failure of the Dreamcast, they went bankrupt and Nintendo bailed them out in exchange for overtaking their company, programmers and business in general and and making Sonic a Nintendo chara...

Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Do Great Minds Think Alike?

But Sonic and Mario never think alike. If they did, a cross-over platforming game would have been done years ago due to it's simplicity. But because of the difference between their focuses and playing styles would mean a cross-over would be possible, but would be a minefield to blend together well....

Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Do Great Minds Think Alike?

I can understand believing the Saturn was bad, but the Dreamcast? It literally invented online gaming on home systems - I guess Nintendo fans wouldn't get that though since the Wii online is about as good as a chocolate teapot. The Dreamcast is certainly a highly underrated system that was truly ah...

Re: If SMB got the "George Lucas" treatment....

I am completely and totally against everything George Lucas has done to his own films and will lash out against anyone who thinks it's a good idea to go back every three years and digitally alter films that were perfectly fine upon their releases in '77, '80 and '83. When a movie is complete, it is...

Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Do Great Minds Think Alike?

Oh no, Mario hasn't made that big an impact at ALL. Only one thing maybe let,s see, maybe THE ENTIRE GAMING INDUSTRY! If it wasn't for the first SMB game, gaming would've died out a long time ago. Besides Sonic games have sucked too. Like Sonic (2006), Sonic Unleashed, Shadow the Hedgehog. Just bec...

Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Do Great Minds Think Alike?

As for comparisons between shows, why was the SMB: Movie and SatAM picked to compare? The mild cyberpunk feel and scientifically focussed enemies are similar, but so was Khan in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. The closer series are The Super Mario Bros. Super Show and Sonic AoStH - not least that t...

Re: Mario vs. Sonic, or: Do Great Minds Think Alike?

Maybe it's just because I'm something of a Nintendo bigot, but personally, I hate Sonic the Hedgehog. I tried playing the games, but I could never get into them-- they're not for me. And it makes my stomach churn nowadays when I see Mario's greatest nemesis along side him in "Nintendo Olympics...

Re: BLU-RAY RE-RELEASE INFORMATION/PETITION

Hitting up from Europe (England to be precise). Word up to all in my young sibling country of the States! Just to say I own the UK release of Super Mario Bros the Movie and believe it to be a very disappointing release. It may be more likely to get a high-quality Blu-Ray conversion in Europe however...
