Well, there are the fun cheats that extend a game fun and longetivity. Yeah goldeneye is the perfect example for fps, but Rare was probably back then the best Nintendo developer. They knew about fun. Why they are not there anymore is probably explained on the first page. Developement time, money... Then there are the…
Reading this is amazing Christopher. So the multiplayer was you and another artist's work ? Wow. Maps such as Alinos Perch, High Ground, Outer Reach, Vesper Station, Combat Hall... Damn I'm getting crushed with nostalgia lol. Sadly the Nintendo WFC service ended in May 2014... Would have been a pleasure and an honor…
Vahl, which is why I didn't want to use some of the newer megaman concept art, doesn't match the 8-bit version at all. I like the old nintendo cartridges like urban fight and pro wrestling where they slapped a blown up copy of the sprite on the cart. Slum, I imagine megaman's voice should sound closer to Sonic the…
Hm, no, I don't think the shells can be added through the material definition. You COULD use a pixelshader that compares depth buffer values and adds black outlines without adding geometry (the Nintendo DS can do that in hardware) but of course that means knowing how to write pixelshaders. The other part is adding the…
Well, not to mention that while sales are high, it doesn't always translate into profits. There are a lot of deals that are offered to get people to buy. I know the numbers in the original post show money++ too but it doesn't break things down. For instance, software is +35%, but it doesn't show how that breaks down. So…
Hello, I'm starting in 3d modelling and this is my 1st post here. I'm starting the 3d for a character from the Final Fantasy Tactics Advance series (GBA) but how it would look game ready for a game for the Nintendo Switch maybe. (Right, original art) I just finished the front, side, back views to understand better the…
Hi mates. I am modelling for this handheld device with a Qualcomm 528Mhz CPU and ARM9 core. The models will be in a OpenGL ES envirenment. I have experience on modelling for Nintendo DS, but not for this kind of devices. I guess is more and less the same, low poly and small textures, but as low as NDS, true? Are there…
Been a somewhat exciting couple of days. Firstly our DS top-down racing game Topgear: Downforce has been released in Japane under the far superior title of "Simple DS Series Vol. 13: Ijoukishou wo Tsuppashire ! The Arashi no Drift Rally" (I believe it translates to "Race Through Crazy! Weather Storm Drift Rally")…
Hi im not sure if this is right place to ask questions like this but i couldn't find better place on this forum. I was wondering if using model of Pokemon for animation showreel a violation of copyrights? Do i have to give credit to Nintendo or i cannot use them at all? If i get hired because of showreel featuring…
Ok, again completely switching to something else. Again bit older and not such an impressive model BUT .. this is my very very first mod for a console.. and then Nintendo and then for Zelda BOTW on the Switch.. > <3 Was a lot of work actually to bring it onto the console (even with some great tutorials and mod tools…
