GAME OVER BOB

This guy has been developing his own DS game for 5 years, and all he needed to finish it was the Nitro SDK, Nintendo's official devkit. So to obtain it, he did what any mature person would do: Lock himself into mommy's basement for 100 days. He's currently been writing blog posts with things like "EVERYONE SUKS I IS BEST DVELEPER IN UNIVERSE" in them, making everyone rage. Some people thought he was just acting insane for the attention, though.

Well, he's now officially screwed. And probably certifiably insane.

He did that MANY times. Nintendo are just being Nintendo about it.

POOR BOB,

He really should have taken breaks and take time off to play some games to keep his insanity...

Is he dead or something? It looks like that's always the same pic on that webcam.


Anyways, poor guy, working 5 years on one game for nothing :/
The game looked pretty cool :(

It's nintendo trying give that kid a hint that his idea's shit.

I was hoping he'd just release it as homebrew. I suppose this result is better, though.
EDIT: Also, what company would publish a game with so many stereotypes in it (Besides Rockstar (Take 2, wtf was I thinking) of course >.>). I mean, just look at the trailer, anyone who published that would be put into a poor light instantly.

Gee, and I just saw him quit today earlier too. @_@;

First I thought he turned insane from his arrogant post. Then I'm getting sick of his insanity writings, and oops, he failed. :x

Oh well. Boo-hoo for Bob. :/
Pokebis
Okay, so /v/ got the police on him after faking his death.
His website now says:
"bob's game" 2009
RAIDED BY THE POLICE WHILE FAKING HIS OWN DEATH ON WEBCAM AND DOESN'T AFRAID OF ANYTHING!
IM ALIVE!
SORRY, REGGIE!
His webcam is pitch black except for two lights now. This is getting pretty intense.

His game looks interesting enough, though. I have been following his development ever since his site launched.

If bob actually locked himself in his room without an internet connection, and updates his blog via email on a phone, perhaps he is completely unaware that his blog has been hacked by 4channers. Or perhaps he is aware but can't fix it. Because either way it's pretty clear that the website is just making fun of him at this point.

Bob is obviously playing a stunt here. He switches between persona's and right now it's the evil one. It's his way of getting attention, and... by the looks of it, he's succeeding.

Also, the "Yuu" puns are getting out of hand.

I disagree. I think it can be fun. 200 characters with different personalities, puzzles and stuff. And it's made by an insane person, so it could be fun.
Also I could be totally wrong!

This is coming from the guy who puts down 90% of on the horizon games, so ignore me.
Neo@lex
He should port it to the PSP and see if Sony'll do it.

lol wut, trying to trick me?

You had me going for a while in the beginning until you went batshit insane, then it was obvious.
Starrodkirby86
Wow, conceited much? :U

He's joking again perhaps? Isn't the best medicine for these things ignoring? -_-;

In this episode, Bob brags about how good he had tricked the internet, he tries to get friends with Nintendo again and he calls everybody who believed him a fool.

What a coward. I wonder if he's talking about the same internet we use. I haven't seen a single person actually convinced.
You're on the wrong Internet, then. I've seen tons of people who thought he was going nuts.

Troll much?
I'll lol of it turns out he didn't actually make the game.
I'll lol harder if he meets the same fate as the guy who was working on OoT2D.
Is it true that the guy who made OOT2D actually died? Or did he just fake it too?
CheeseWarlock
This game is getting so meta. I'm interested in it again, even if not to play it then to see where this Bob fellow is going with all this.

He knew everyone would rage if he said "project canceled olololol", so he faked his own suicide to get off the hook.

Reality check? EVERY company is like this. Even the "good old" Nintendo. The only difference there is that they had a couple of really good creative developers working with long leashes who delivered the goods.

Looks like Bob has a pretty good engine here. I wish he'd hurry up and release it as homebrew already. All this sensationalism is getting old.
Pokebis
Okay, Mr. Pelloni actually released a demo. No, seriously.
The attempts at humor are dull and ripped off of other sources, the transition between areas hangs (on my G6 DS Real at least) rather than smooth transitioning that Bob promised and the overall game is dumb. I got to this supa original tetris minigame with blocks that are missing parts... Like it would have a block in the shape of an L-block, but it would be missing a block in the last part where the horizontal block comes out.... You'd have to play it to see what I mean.You Yuu can't pause or stop the game, so... Also no sleep mode. I stopped trying the tetris game after it made me fail like 5 times. It's really easy and then the blocks go fast and it's hard to control so.. I'm rather good at normal tetris and would be good at this if it ran off a similar engine to Tetris DS maybe... Foul stopped after even less tries I think. I may try more later, but this is most definitely not BEST GAME EVA' material...

Speaking of Nintendo... They are not giving out SDK to everyone. Only for specified companys that are "good for nintendo".
Even my PB Game Studios can't get one. Eh, poor guy. Whatever, homebrew scene isn't bad too, really! :)
