Talk:Homemade Nintendo Power magazine
Reformatting
Unless this sort of reformatting would somehow mess everything up, this article's transcript and picture gallery should probably be combined page-by-page, just like how the Week With Christian Chandler article is set up. Llort 01:49, 4 July 2009 (CEST)
- Since nobody protested my suggestion of three months ago, I've totally overhauled the page formatting to mimic what's been done with A Week With Christian Chandler. It took a long time - and plenty of the lesser formatting will still need to be corrected - but I think the page works and looks significantly better this way. :3 Llort 22:58, 12 October 2009 (CEST)
- Holy shit. Transcribing some of these lesser details that were earlier overlooked is turning out to be well worth the effort. Postcards sent in by fictional readers "Rocket Thompson" and "Rocky Coolio"? Yes, Chris. Proceed. Llort 01:16, 13 October 2009 (CEST)
Chris and his "Clairvoyance"
You know, one has to wonder about what Chris did in this magazine and how much of it actually came true. I mean, it's sad: there WAS a Mega Man game for the N64 (it was a port of Legends, not Chris' shitty X1/Mega Man 3 fusion game), there WAS a Beast Wars: Transformers fighting game (Beast Wars: Transformers: TransMetals, a fighting game for the PS1 and N64 based off of the second season of Beast Wars) and, of course, Sonic making appearances on Nintendo consoles. Of course, we could always chalk it up to Chris talking out of his ass, as usual, and not realizing it. --Blazer 17:53, 17 August 2009 (CEST)
- It's not that hard of a guess to make. Mega Man is one of the most absurdly fecund game series of all time, and that there was only one Mega Man game for the N64 is more astonishing than there being any Mega Man game for the N64, seeing as how it started on Nintendo consoles! The longest shot would be Transformers, but it had a resurgence of popularity at the same time as the N64, so there was an elevated chance of a game coming out. Sonic coming out for Nintendo consoles was the single weirdest thing, given that while Sega wasn't doing so hot in the console wars with the Saturn, it was still a healthy company at the time. One would have to make some pretty bold predictions to calculate failure from the floundering of one console, seeing that momentary failure was no object to Nintendo or Microsoft. Of course, Chris didn't predict based on some crazy moment of foresight; he was just had a dream about playing Sonic on Nintendo consoles, and because Chris's dreams are "infallible"...
