"I certainly will! I have a Virtual Console copy on my Wii. Got it from a Club Nintendo promotion. I also have a copy of Skyward Sword, but no Wii MotionPlus yet. I'm not sure which one I'll play first, or when. It took me four years to get around to my last Zelda game, so who knows? I want to pick the one that feels most important to my timeline."

"My only thought on why it's Kinect only is that they might be using substantial proprietary software and libraries from Microsoft while developing Skyrim. Those resources are likely written specifically for Kinect input. In that case, other microphone inputs would require a lot of code rewriting.
disclaimer: I know very little about game development. That's all just a guess. Maybe they were given extra in their contract for making the new features Kinect only. After all, this is meant to drive the sales of Kinect within the hardcore audience."

"I laughed when you compared someone who hasn't heard of Mass Effect 3 to a tractor-riding Amish person. Funny stuff lol"

"Great pictures! My favourite page was the cosplayers. They're usually one of the cooler parts of a convention, anyway."

"Final forms are final for a reason! Actually, there's probably a whole bunch of good reasons, but I'll go with this quote:
Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.

"The video tutorial you linked stated that people who are new to fighting games would do better picking up a copy of Street Fighter 4. Do you agree with that? Is the KOF series simply not pick up and play material?"

"@Chris: Thank you for the comment! I did not expect to receive one so soon after posting. I appreciate you taking the time to read my work.
I know you read the part leading up to Stage 4 because you mention the two groups I wrote about. I commend your honesty and willingness to keep reading the article.
I felt like I had to announce certain things about the game for the sake of those two groups. First of all, the health precaution is an obvious inclusion. I don't want people getting hurt from playing games.

Randy Balma: Municipal Abortionist is a shocking game, but not in an explicit or mature way. The game has no content or effects that could be deemed blood or gore. It's not really violent, either. Objects bump into each other, at most.
What makes it shocking is how abrasive and foreign the content is provided to the user. Blotchy graphics, offensively bright colours, droning ambient sound. It's a total WTF game, and that's why I love it.
Thanks again for reading.

"Sometimes I get a little uneasy when I need to combat women characters in particularly violent games. This feeling happens to me most often in fighters since the characters' bodies and the damage done to them are so apparent on screen. I feel a little guilty beating up a digital chick! But I guess the equality comes in that same chick character being able to kick ass with her own powerful moveset."

"How can Mario and Luigi be brothers? It's impossible. One wears red, the other wears green. You Can't Explain That"

"I think it would be cool if Mario's enemies were all the reviewers who gave his games horrible scores and the consumers who didn't buy his game. That way, no one would be able to give his newest release a bad score because all the reviewers would be dead! Problem solved. And he could re-animate the dead consumers as mindless zombie slaves whom he could order to buy his game. Another problem solved!"
