I loved that game to death. I know it's already been done for the ps2, but honestly, let's forget about that. The graphics for this game were amazing on the dreamcast, I can only imagine how great they'd be on a newer system like the wii or 360.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-64853735021119312122008-11-14T15:05:00.000+00:002008-11-14T15:05:00.000+00:00To the last Anon, they already have come out with ...To the last Anon, they already have come out with a Gecko game.

What troubles me is the Wii itself, not just the fact that they would ruin any decent games if they were remade. I cant stand the Wii... Its marketing totally infuriates me, and the fact people are actually buying it adds to my pain. Microsoft and Sony are out there making a substantial loss and Nintendo is making a profit from such a low price. I greatly understand affordable gaming but I am not prepared to waste my money on cheap, shitty (I meant "innovative") hardware.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-83570476399521882632007-04-12T23:46:00.000+00:002007-04-12T23:46:00.000+00:00The point I'm trying to get ahead is that the Drea...The point I'm trying to get ahead is that the Dreamcast WAS ahead of it's time and because of that so many people never got to experience most of these amazing games that still feel fresh today. Ports, sequels, remakes, whatever, with Wii controls for games that feel under the radar, they could get a new lease of life. As I pointed out, Samba De Amigo NEVER got the chance to shine it deserved thanks to the expensive, low-production maracas. Also, if Sega haven't got the money to make risky new ideas, games like this could help boost their earnings so they can in the future make those brand new games.<BR/><BR/>Mike: Now why didn't I think of Cosmic Smash?

The control scheme stated sounded good, but with how small the squares will be on the TV, it will be really hard to aim, leading to nothing but frustration.<BR/><BR/>As fun as all these games sound though, I want new, innovative games. The Dreamcast was way before it's time, but right now it's at the point where it's past it's time. The only reason I'm saying this is because I'd rather Sega put some good ideas into works with the Wii instead of reviving dead/rare games like these that people might already own.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14218877438609981730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-87001651070941919842007-04-02T03:24:00.000+00:002007-04-02T03:24:00.000+00:00they need to release some of the JAP games like Ik...they need to release some of the JAP games like Ikaruga!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-27095104937806965822007-04-01T12:50:00.000+00:002007-04-01T12:50:00.000+00:00Oonga Boonga.

The wiimote only has accelerometers. It can detect acceleration, or movement, but not so much the distance to the ground. Even if it was calibrated at the beginning of each song (by telling the player to put the maracas next to his/her waist or something), there would either be considerable "drift" or a tremendous amount of ingenious math would need to be involved.<BR/><BR/>JSR on the other hand would be awesome, and Space Channel 5 would also be loads of fun. <BR/><BR/>I actually had a plan to use a dance pad and a P5 Glove (6DOF motion recognition via IR) to play it... dance pad for up down left right and the glove for "CHU!" and "HEY!"... one would make a fist and a forward movement with the hand for a "CHU" and an open hand and backward movement for "HEY"<BR/><BR/>Of course, that only would have been possible with an emulator, but still.<BR/><BR/>Chu Chu would indeed be a great cash cow, maybe it could serve as kind of a first step to gather the money for more "experimental" games (samba and SC5).<BR/><BR/>I don't agree with REZ though. The wiimote would make it too easy (because you can move the cursor as fast as you want, as opposed to the original's fixed speed). Also, you've got a point with the wiimote speaker, but REZ is best played LOUD, and then the wiimote speaker would just be too soft to be noticed I think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-13111528907844932322007-04-01T00:14:00.000+00:002007-04-01T00:14:00.000+00:00Ikaruga needs to be at the top of that list. its a...Ikaruga needs to be at the top of that list. its a simple game but deserves more attention.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19634944.post-90823065177634936282007-03-31T23:26:00.000+00:002007-03-31T23:26:00.000+00:00Go fucking look at a dictionary, Anonymous.Go fucking look at a dictionary, Anonymous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
