Nintendo Power - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)

Ойындар

Taking a break from bad video games, the Nerd spends his time recalling his fondest memories of reading the Nintendo Power magazine. This is Angry Video Game Nerd Episode 33.
Before the Internet, there was only one source for Nintendo gaming news and pro tips- the pages of Nintendo Power magazine. Starting in 1988, the magazine kept gamers informed on the hottest scoops in Nintendo culture in its hundreds of monthly issues. Though generally reliable, it was published by Nintendo itself and sometimes served as a promotional organ in the guise of journalism.
All these years later, the Nerd unseals his vintage NP collection and looks back at the influential publication through the lens of hindsight.

    They responded to those letters absolutely savagely back then. For example, in once issue, somebody complains about them printing letters that don't directly relate to video games, and their response is "but then we wouldn't have printed yours".

If the kid stole the rap or the kid wrote it and they used it in the commercial... its hard to say, considering they could have used the rap originally to advertise the game and the kid took it or they later released the commercial after the game had been out and used the kid's rap. I wouldn't mind knowing for sure.

    From actually paying more attention to the calculation at 11:42 after all these years, I've discovered that it was done incorrectly. Because the 41,664 dots are each a place for 1 of 15 different colors to exist, the calculation should have been done as follows: possible images = 15^(41,664) Ian incorrectly flipped the numbers and did: possible images = 41,664^(15). So actually the number of possible images is A LOT greater.

    Hot Bakery Eclipse, no, when you are talking about any computer data de possibilities are not endless since its always a combinations of 1 and 0. For example, there is a finite number of audio recordings you can have on a CD, that includes all the possible conversations between two people that can fit on a CD and all the possible music that can fit on a CD. A drawing on mario paint is easier than that, since its a finite combination of colors on a grid.

    4:56 ‘this one’s cool cause it’s an owl and owls are cool’ That line has never really left my head for 15 years or so. Because it’s true, even if it’s said so casually.

    3:35 Still a shame we didn't get Star Fox 2. To this day it's probably Nintendo's biggest cancellation along with Earthbound 64. It's a longshot, but I hope it gets an official release in some form in the future, even if it's a remake.

    Ratical I don't know if EB 64 would have been any good, all I know is that we got Mother 3 instead and that game is an awesome emotional rollercoaster.

    ***** That's true, yeah. From what I understand it's unfinished, but I guess I'd also just like it if Nintendo made the whole thing canon. We might even see Fay and Miyu again.

    +Micheal Laurin I said REMAKE, as in retelling., so new characters and such would be introduced. Just like Star Fox 64 was a remake of the original game for SNES. Which is why Star Wolf are in it, who were supposed to be in Star Fox 2.
