Banjo Not So Great in Standard Def, Sucks For You People Stuck in 2002
There have been a lot of complaints lately about Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts and it’s unfriendliness towards standard definition television. Basically it seems that on an SDTV the games text, which the game has a lot of, is unreadable. Well those complaints were heard by Rare and answered too, Rare community manager George Kelion has issued the following response:
“Unfortunately, this is an issue that doesn’t look like it will get changed. I don’t want to bore you with the technical side of things (I really don’t understand it all myself), but the long and the short of it is that the text you see in the demo will be the same as that which you find in the retail version of the game,”
“I’m sorry that we weren’t able to address this issue as nothing would please us more than turning all your complaints into gleeful responses, but it’s simply something that’s too expensive in terms of time, resources and money to alter.
Sorry SDTV owners you are SOL. Not too sound like an elitist jerk, but I agree with Rare here, the game was designed to played on a High Definition Television. Why should they apologize for that? This is the HD generation and I don’t want whiny SD owners hindering game development. When PC games are released with higher specs then you have, do you complain about to message boards, or do you realize that maybe its time for a new computer? Well maybe it is time for you to start saving for a new TV, because HD makes a difference and from where I stand it’s better. Don’t go backwards, and if you are still using a SDTV, then don’t buy games designed for HDTV’s
Capcom posts Favorable Q2 results
It says so right at the top of the press release — “favorable.” But just how favorable were Capcom’s fiscal fortunes in its second quarter, ended September 30th? Well, provided you’re not horribly offended when the words-to-numbers ratio starts changing for the worse in this paragraph: compared to the same period last year, net sales went up by 0.4% to ¥31,236 million ($315 million); operating income increased to 3,357 million ($34 million, an increase of 9.8%); and net income increased by 16.8% to ¥1,873 million ($19 million).
Phew! You can blame some of that on “skyrocketing” sales of Monster Hunter Portable 2G (coming to the US soon as Monster Hunter Freedom Unite) and the rest on our inability to present financial information in a particularly interesting way. Oh well!
In tandem with its results, Capcom also announced the acquisition of Pachislo manufacturer Enterrise K.K. The new subsidiary will provide “unique technological expertise” and “lead to greater synergy,” which we’re told very often leads to greater money.
