Nintendo Power interviews Strong Bad about the upcoming Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People.
Contents |
Summary
Strong Bad says that they changed the name of SBCG4AP from Strong Bad: Great Graphics, Great Gameplay, Great Guy. However, marketing suggested that it sounded too much like the Adventures of Lolo, so they changed it to the current title. Strong Bad also said that side affects of the game to unattractive people could be temporary loss of vision, spontaneous diaper, and cactus tounge. This would also happen if Strong Bad were to walk into a restaurant for a burger and they were out of burgers. Strong Bad said that unattractive people can play the game, but it won't make them more attractive. Gamers will be unable to use his wrestling moves.
Strong Bad says that Trogdor's appearance in the game is a trade secret.
Strong Bad indicated that he was opposed to this style of game, where he is controlled by a gamer, and was in favor of a "sit-'n'-watch" game. He was later informed that is known as a "cartoon" and already has one.
Strong Bad said that the Wii exclusive for the game consoles was because he was promised 500 Rupees and a pet Skulltula. He said that no one would miss the video-game manuals that would come in a box, rather than on Wiiware. He did say that he would miss the eight blank pages for notes.
He also spoke about Snake Boxer 5 and how it introduced the health meter, revolutionizing gaming.
