cool new game for wii

haha...

no rob, but here's another post i did at gamespot a couple of months ago, problem is i can't find it so i need to re-write it again.. and that is something i hate to do
so this read will be very badly written

Ok, so it's an idea for the wii.

Think lego in a world that is aesthetically like Katamari damacy. Also a lot of influence from Black and White and Animal Crossing.

Ure avatar is an inventor living in this somewhat hi-tech, large city that's on this paradise island.

U get different assignments, ranging in scope from building a large robot to kill large-menacing-creature-from-the-sea attacking the city, to building small transportation boats that the inhabitants are in dire need of when the city is flooded by a tide.

there would be even simpler tasks that u could tend to when the overarching game world was peacfull.
This is where inspiration from Black and White and Animal Crossing is taken.

Designing chairs and the likes for ure avatars own home, or helping out people with simple things. these smaller tasks in peace-time could be likened to the scrolls in Black and White, where you clicked on a scroll which involved helping out people in the world, and do a lot of variated things.

The way you constructed things gameplay wise, would be using the remote in this cubical closed area.
The size of the cube would depend on the task.
So if u were to design some chairs the cubical area would be pretty small, while if u were to design large robot u had a larger cubical area at ure disposal.

What do i mean with a cubical area?

Well.. the cubical area would be "placed" on the islands ground, and wouldn't represent anything directly physical in the game world, but more like a border for ure work space.

So ud see these white, thick lines in the world that represented ure work space, and that outlined the cube.
(in other words a transparent cube if we stick with the whole concrete cube consept.)

U could then place anything inside this area with the remote. Different building blocks are at ure disposal; and since it's not confined to physical law, u could start building from top to ground, or any way u liked.

(sure there's a physical law in the game world, but that's not something that the player would need to care about while in the cubical area, other than not being allowed to smash the islands ground or inflicting any destruction to the game world.)

Im thinking about maybe letting there be an option to turn on a transparent grid system, so that one could orient oneself better while constructing things.

What do people think about this idea?

Its interesting. My only fear is that if a developercumpublsiher (yes, its a word, look it up :sarcy made this, say, EA, they would just try and call it B&W Wii, or something. If it is too similar to another franchise, it is easier to just call it that, as opposed to bringing something out that faces criticism for being "too similar to XYZ".

I like the cubical idea thing though.

thanks!

hm.. i have no worries that it is too similar to B&W, i actually just wrote that to make things easier to understand.
for example the whole scrool tasks wont actually use scrools. but there would be some kind of icon u could click to get a dialogue box that told u about the task.. what the person needed ure help in..
and that's the only thing that is inspired by B&W, so it's not the fundamental gameplay mechanics of B&W, just the concept of icons scatterd around the gameworld. It's a good mechanic, and it would feel pretty natural in this game. that's all.

Well, hey, if you do get somewhere with this idea and you need somebody to compose the music for the game, here I am. You know how to PM, right?

sure
but it's just an idea, i posted it on gamespots forums and now here.
and i haven't given it any more thought that what ive written here about it, since nintendo aren't interested in giving me a job.
so.. just an idea, not in development and wont be in development.

since nintendo aren't interested in giving me a job.

No, that is a bizzare childish post from a frustrated member. I'm entitled to laugh at whatever I want without a thwarted "developer" posting afterwards trying to pseudo mock me.

ok, but ure actually causing a bit of a stir
and this is what i have to say to u hazuki
please never ever again post in a topic ive created
is that ok, call it a deal?
u obviously wouldn't miss anything not posting in my created threads.
so is it deal?

and i can spell it out clearly:

I. GET. OFFENDED. BY. URE. POSTS.

thx in advance

please never ever again post in a topic ive created

x 1000000000

aww Haz. you made him cry. dont ever speak to him again.

dear me kid, like you can tell someone not to post on a forum. or if you do it cant just be one meber.

how about this deal:

no one posts in your threads

everyone posts in your threads and picks apart the bullshit you try spouting.

You get offended by discussion regarding topics you create? What exactly do you want posted after you? Glowing praise only or just smiley emoticons denoting joy, mirth and merriment at your idea? I'm utterly baffled at why you'd join a forum and post if you dislike opposing views, surely a forum is all about the great coming together of minds for discussion.

Anyway you are in luck as I have an early start tomorrow and will be off for the rest of the night, however if you are offended by my posts then I suggest you leave the forum as I will not be told when and when not to post by a frustrated little boy like you.

G'night all.

Corrected again....pls stop posting your crappy childish ideas revival, period. Before your self esteem is abliterated.

Owned.

Well...Hazuki...he's actually older than you...So calling him a frustrated little boy is a little...off...

But seriously though, you shouldn't just go at him like that, mayb ask some explanation for why he is how he is, and then if those reasons are crappy(in your opinion) you can still scold him Deal?(lol)

he said :

please never ever again post in a topic ive created

c'mon. thats enough right there.

if i feel offended ill tell u that

ive seen a shrink, shrink told me to tell people when i can't cope with a situation.

that's what im doing right now. i can't cope with ure critcism. please just accept it. sure u can do what u want. u decide. but i just wouldn't be able to deal with ure critcism that well, so id much prefer if u didn't post in my threads.

thx

EDIT: this goes to anyone who wants to post something that's a little bit too personal and inappropriate.

( Edited on 24.07.2006 00:02 by CH_revival )

Look the basic question is if you can't take the criticisms we members give you. Why Post??
As already said by Hazuki its part of what a forum is all about. If you believe you have such great ideas then act on them. Don't post them if you really are as timid as you appear to say you are.

I disagree with your opinions.

*runs*

Anyway, getting back on topic. I like this idea, sounds like it could be a fun game and would be well suited for the Wii.

But really, if you don't want any criticism you're probably better off not posting these kind of things.

i can take any criticism that is criticism towards the game idea. but i can't take criticism that is towards me, that is personal and inappropriate.
that's all
im glad u liked the idea.

ive seen a shrink, shrink told me to tell people when i can't cope with a situation.

that's what im doing right now. i can't cope with ure critcism. please just accept it. sure u can do what u want. u decide. but i just wouldn't be able to deal with ure critcism that well, so id much prefer if u didn't post in my threads.

Maybe you should put that in bold at the top of all your posts. "I can't cope with negative posts- please leave me alone. "

So basically, its like a lego game, it could work, building giant submarine crushing monsters to automatic lawn mowers, there are a few things that need quierying. Would all resign plans be inbuilt into the game so all you have to do is gather the things, and piece them together. Or would all the creations be left to th players imagination. I would think that if its up to th player decide it would take a large mass of programing to allow, whatever the player decides to make work. And i mean Allot. Never before have has something like that been created. But theres always a first for everything.

There are several interesting ways you could use the wii and its wiimote, this could range from welding, to twisting screws, hammering nails..I think if anyone can do it the Wii has a good shot.

Id say the idea has potential.Very creative of you.
