    Mario Party 7 I enjoyed, especially after Mario Party 6 got a disc scratch so bad it stopped working for me. Now costs over $100 for a replacement copy.
    But they both share the orb mechanic which I enjoyed immensely. Kept the boards fresh each time you play, added personal flair to everyone's turns tiptoeing around your spaces, and another strategy to use your coins besides stars.

    Geist was a western-developed game that was published by Nintendo. It was a first person shooter where you played as a ghost who could possess objects, animals, and people. Nintendo wanted this to be their Halo-killer, but it ended up being a pretty meh shooter that had some interesting but poorly executed ideas.

      @DylanYoshi 2 года назад +2

      @@rescuerex7031 There's certainly parts of it that I like, as some of the puzzles are pretty cool. But the actual shooter gameplay I found to be pretty generic. Granted, I'm not huge on shooters to begin with (love me some TimeSplitters though) and am not huge on Halo either, but I found Geist to be particularly awkward.
      It has been quite a while since I've played it, so maybe my opinion would change if I played it now... But it's definitely not the Halo killer Nintendo wanted it to be.

    I have to say, I normally am not much of a fan of old game commercial videos because they usually focus on just American commercials and presume a greater collaboration with the company than really exists (Nintendo almost certainly just hired an advertisement agency and gave little oversight). But I liked how you really mixed it up with more international commercials to balance it out.

    I'm the only person I know who has played Geist. Pretty solid multiplayer (not online obviously), but I remember the campaign being present fun. It's an FPS where you play as a ghost and can possess people, but first you had to solve puzzles to scare people enough so that they are more susceptible to possession. Cool concept, pretty decent execution.
