I've been wondering this for a while now. Who has the most fans here?

I would love to see a sequel. I'm a little curious what the gameplay would be like, considering that the Mario series typically shows fairly significant evolutions from one game to the next (and yes, I'm even considering Mario 3 to Mario World). I can't imagine they'd release a "more of the same" kind of game.

How ironic that he also lists Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles as one of the reasons to own a Wii.

I don't feel like I really have anything fresh and original to add to this thread, but I'm going to throw my two cents in, anyway.

Capcom is awesome. I don't particularly care for the way they oversaturate the market with their core franchises (*cough*MegamanandStreetFighter*cough*), but typically when the box says "Capcom" on it anywhere, you can expect a pretty polished product inside.

Also consider that if you take, say, the top 10 games of any major console (outside of the N64), Capcom will be present on that list somewhere.

'Nuff said.

Oh yeah, and anyone who responds with "GameCube" when the question is "Retro" is a twerp.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Gargoyles Quest series make a return. I still don't know why Capcom let that series fade.

Okay, take every else's suggestions and throw them out the window (yes, even my own). This is what we need.

So there's a group of people who think MGS is a Sony-exclusive franchise now? Interesting.

[QUOTE="Mr_Matthews"]Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure.XeonXarid
Yes, but is it any good?

I'll put it to you this way: when all is said and done and we've all moved on from the DS, Henry Hatsworth will most likely be in my Top 10 favorite games for the system. As a standard platformer it's pretty cool, but the puzzle elementson the bottom screenare implemented into the gameplay so well that the game achieves "awesome" status.

As far as platformers on the DS go, this game is second only to New Super Mario Bros, IMO

[QUOTE="Mr_Matthews"]

[QUOTE="Silent-Hal"] Which is the exact point that I went from thinking that Capcom was handling it rather well to thinking that the game was genuinely racist. Out of nowhere you're attacked by stereotypical mindless savages covered in war paint, waving spears and wearing loin cloths. It just made me shake my head at how dumb Capcom are. Silent-Hal

Uh . . . what?

How is it racist to have characters in the game actually represent their setting? Was it racist for the enemies in RE4 to all be Spaniards? How ridiculous would it be if the African tribemen that attacked you in the heart of Africa were white and/or Japanese?

Gimme a break, people . . .

No, you give me a break. Stop hiding behind that stupid 'oh well in RE4 we killed Spaniards so it must be okay' because that's just completely avoiding the issue. Capcom shouldn't get a free pass just because this is a (pretty sucky) Resident Evil game. It's stupid that they included those African tribesmen at all, considering you'd be fighting a mixed race rag tag of villains literally just 5 minutes beforehand. It's a blatantly racist stereotype that should have died years ago to portray the 'evil savage from the dark continent'. Having something like that in popular entertainment like this makes me feel like we've regressed a good 50 years.

Did you even play the game? You do understand that the tribesmen were all infected, right? Or do you consider the very concept of "African tribemen" racist? (if the latter's the case, turn on either the Discovery or Travel channel)

You seem to think this is a cop-out, but if you're going to call Capcom racist for having almost exclusively black villains in one game, then you have to call them racist for having exclusively white villains in another.

Gears of War's Cole was more of a racist portrayal than anything seen in Resident Evil 5.
