Nilsworth "pokey" o'Shafster
 
hi! someones knows what happened to that boss nilsworth "pokey" o'shafster?
i saw a pictureof him on sw's official site but he's not in the game, right?

That picture was one of the reasons I thought there might be a hidden level or secret bounty store or something. I've only seen him on the cards, though, so its possible they made up a name to go with a minion. I think they did it for a couple other cards, too. But if someone has a definite response, that would be cool.

But no, he's not in the game.

I think he's just one of Jo'mamas minions the guys with big circle spiky hands.Elboze freely didn't have armour on all the pictures i saw but he did in the game so mabye that guy had the same story?

I'm thinking they'll leave all the left over bosses for Stranger 2. Just a thought.

You guy's are goin way outa-line he might have just been cut from the game.

ConkerTribe 02-16-2005 11:15 AM

Well I don't know if OI usually does that, since I never really followed the franchise, but why would they take so much time on him if just for him to die out? And if they make another Stranger, I would imagine they could just as easily put him back in ;)

Just like They took out the Banshee from multiplayer in Halo1 they put it in Halo2, your thoery is possible. :)

When you suck up the guys with no guns and melee it shows his picture there I checked today.When I was playing i started to look at them and they look like him he's just a minion not a boss.

I can't find this Nilsworth "pokey" o'Shafster. Any direct links to images or the like of this character? :s

Alcar...

Steef1o1 02-18-2005 05:02 PM

I may be wrong because it says he's a boss if you put your arrow over the picture.


Here's a link: http://depthsofoddworld.com/images/C...hOshafster.htm

3 of the bosses it shows on there are Fony bosses I think just look at all the pictures on the link and you'll see.

Well not exactly fony but boss names are given to regular minions.

Wil 02-25-2005 12:12 PM

What does that say on his belt buckle? The obviously suggestion would be ‘Irish’, but it looks more like ‘Orish’ or ‘Qrish’ to me.

And minions have names, too. :p

Dipstikk 02-25-2005 12:17 PM

I think it says "Fresh."

Esus 02-25-2005 12:19 PM

I don't think the first letter can be O or Q - if so, the left most part of it would be too close the indent-border. if you zoom in really far, I think it's quite obviously Irish, each of the letters in Irish stands out the most with the other bits only being marks and dirt.

but those guys are all over the place.

I think he was just cut from the game. Does Niles remind anyone else of Crocodile Dundee or some other Austrailian stereotype?

He does seem to have the "Austrailian" look about him..... stereotypically speaking, of course..... mabey it's just me.


Or I could just be seeing things and he is Irish.

TheRaisin 02-25-2005 05:09 PM

That guy that Meagly McGraw rides at first when you start fighting him . . . isn't he called Pokey? When I went into town after capturing him I overheard one of the Clakkerz say something like "He got Meagly and Pokey, too." And of course the guy Meagly rides in the game had a mask on so we couldn't see his face.

Or, more likely, this Nilsworth "Pokey" O'Shafster was simply cut from the game.

And I think the belt buckle says "FRESH". It's much cooler than a belt buckle saying "IRISH". "IRISH" seems a bit esoteric, don't you think? It would be like if I walked around with a belt buckle that said "POTATO". Although Nilsworth "Pokey" O'Shafster does, indeed, sound like some sort of made-up Irish name. Hmm. I don't know.

Wil 02-27-2005 07:22 AM

Nilsworth is just a minion, like Mortimar Bang, Cleever McMince or Snapps Manic. There are tonnes of the guys.

Meagly rides Tiny McGraw, his son and bodyguard.

Oh, now I understand. All those things are just previous iterations of the normal game minions. Ok. And I think it says "FRESH."

where do you get his information!?

Wil 03-02-2005 10:58 AM

The back of Measly's Wanted Card clearly states that he rides on Tiny, the “opple of his squinty eye.” It's mirrored on GameSpot's character profiles of the Buzzarton bosses, too.

When you bag one of Jo Mammas guys in Armour it come up with this pic and says alive/dead: £25

Esus 03-21-2005 12:24 PM

That's because Pokey is one of those type of minions - the really strong, quite large ones with those spikey hand things and stuff.

Fuzzle Guy 03-21-2005 11:18 PM

I know, that's what I was saying. He's not a boss at all. But Nilsworth does look pretty cool
