May. 29th, 2008 02:04 pm*has urges to play Zelda Phantom Hourglass*
*puts urges away, due to purported shortness of adventure and wanting to save most of it till China trip*
But... but... I got the cannon over the weekend, and now I want to go use it! Ah well, poor sad me.
On another videogame-related note, the huz is having huge fun with Okami for Wii. He says that many of the brushstrokes should be approached as physical skills: the techniques that need to be round (e.g. Bloom) need to be really pretty round. Further, the Dash maneuver does work, but you need to move the nunchuck along straight X-Y lines to make it work. Simply tilting or rotating it in the direction you wish to Dash will confuse the nunchuck badly, and result in Amaterasu jumping in all kinds of unexpected directions. He is currently working on the Moon Cave.
Perhaps I will start Okami while he is off in Sweden. I only have one world left to go through in Super Paper Mario, after all...

Date: 2008-05-30 05:13 pm (UTC)I saw your illness postings and figured there was no way you'd be up for lunch yesterday. I would come over today, but I think it's more than a little improbable: we're singing a concert on campus tonight, so it makes relatively little sense for me to drive homewards then come back. But who knows.
Maybe we can see you Sunday sometime? You can come see how it works on Wii, anyway! (You DRAW! With the IR POINTER! No silly analog sticks!)
