Tellyn Posted February 9, 2007 Author Posted February 9, 2007 As a new interrogation (torture) technique, Jack Bauer should make people play Donkey Kong Country with the GameCube pad.
ShadowV7 Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 What day is it the Australian VC get's updated?
Dyson Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Playing SMW with the cube controller = cramp. You have to use two fingers - thumb on the B button and index finger curled around the top of the pad for Y button.
m_fergy Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Not when you play it on a cube pad they aren't. Look up Y and B on the cube pad and realise awkwardness! Get a classic controller then
Lens of Truth Posted February 9, 2007 Posted February 9, 2007 Oh god, just got Zelda II. Never played it before. It's so lame! Love the music tho. Had to satisfy my curiosity.
Hero-of-Time Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 Oh god, just got Zelda II. Never played it before. It's so lame! Love the music tho. Had to satisfy my curiosity. Many consider it to be the black sheep of the Zelda series, I personally loved it. I remember playing it on the NES constantly but never being able to finish it but that changed with the arrival of the Zelda disc on the Cube. Managed to set my Wii back up last night ( got a leak in my bedroom ) and play some more SMW. I reached Star Road but it took some time remembering where all those hidden exits were. Im thinking about playing Mario 64 ater this and comparing them both to see which I like the best as iI have never really been able to decided which one I like the most.
THE ganondorflol Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 Just got SMW, despite having it on the GBA. I have never played Zelda 2, but am going to download it if for the music alone. Just all this retro gaming has gone to my head. Hero Of Time (or anyone else who has completed it) can you please tell me , I know it has music from Hyrule Temple from super smash bros, but does it have the actual temple there? Cheers.

The music used in Smash Bros is just the music that plays in every Temple in Zelda 2, at least as far as I can remember.
Blue_Ninja0 Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 The music used in Smash Bros is just the music that plays in every Temple in Zelda 2, at least as far as I can remember. Yep, it plays in a lot of temples, but i'm not sure if it plays in all of them. I've completed Zelda 2 and i can't remember any temple that looks like the stage in smash melee.
SimonM7 Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 Get a classic controller then Don't tell me, I am! I was just pointing it out to the other guy, whose name I forgot.
Tellyn Posted February 10, 2007 Author Posted February 10, 2007 HMV refrain from sending my Classic Controller. It's been on order from the suppliers for over a month.
floatstarpx Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 HMV refrain from sending my Classic Controller. It's been on order from the suppliers for over a month. we ordered ours from gameplay on thursday, it arrived friday morning. perfect for SMW! (plus we're not tripping over the gamecube controller cable any more...)
ShadowV7 Posted February 10, 2007 Posted February 10, 2007 I got my Classic Controller at launch,but it's still in the box un-opened.And do you wanna know why? For A Link to the Past I'm not gonna download other VC games untill I get it.

For A Link to the Past I'm not gonna download other VC games untill I get it. A very sensible thing to do, espacially seeing as it is just on the horizon now American gamers have it. TaoL got 3 out of 5 stars, and SMW got 5 out of 5 (obviously) with the critic saying he liked it more than SM64. I've got to say, I agree with him!!! Edit- Can I have a link to the music from Zelda 2 please? Cheers.
Emasher Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 i just downloaded a link to the past (took a few steps and then i had to go) but i'm just wondering is their any problems with using a wavebird as a pose to a classic controller like the sword being set to the "z" button or something.
THE ganondorflol Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 How the hell- oh, you live in Canada. Lucky sod!
Cube Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 i just downloaded a link to the past (took a few steps and then i had to go) but i'm just wondering is their any problems with using a wavebird as a pose to a classic controller like the sword being set to the "z" button or something. What? SNES controller has A,B,X,Y,Start,Select,L,R,D-Pad WaveBird uses the same buttons, except: - Analogue stick can be used instead of the D-Pad - Z = Select So, unless the sword is stupidly set to Select, there won't be a problem.
ShadowV7 Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 i just downloaded a link to the past I'm sure your trying to taunt me...

Nintendo has the naughty habit of assigning the worst button configurations to the GC pad, and the best ones to the Classic Controller. It wouldnt suprise me.
Tellyn Posted February 11, 2007 Author Posted February 11, 2007 It's a marketing ploy to get people to buy the Classic Controller. Think about it, how many people would buy the Classic pad if the controls were perfect with a Wavebird? The change in controls for GC pads was brought upon us because of everyone on the Internet stating they wouldn't buy a Classic Controller after it was announced a GC pad would work fine.
Eddage Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 But the controls haven't been changed for the Gamecube pad, its just the fact that the buttons are in different a place! You still the press the same button that you had to press on the Snes controller to perform each action, its not as if, when they first designed the gamecube controller, they said, "oh in 10 years or so we're gonna offer downloads of old games that can be played with this pad so lets move all the buttons around so we can make an extra £10 selling a different controller if people aren't happy!"
Pit-Jr Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 "oh in 10 years or so we're gonna offer downloads of old games that can be played with this pad so lets move all the buttons around so we can make an extra £10 selling a different controller if people aren't happy!" This is Nintendo, thats EXACTLY what they said. They could have implemented customizable button configurations to each VC game before load up, but why spend the extra 5 minutes programming that in when they can just make profit off selling a new controller. Its just typical Nintendo, lazy and capitalist
Gizmo Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 And yet, here we all are on a Nintendo forum. Damn those lazy capitalists!
Hero-of-Time Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Just had a good session on Mario World, nearing the end now but Wendys castle is doing my head in. I hate levels where you have to wait for stuff to drop from the ceiling or wait for the screen to scroll along itself. Im a very impatient gamer!
