Yeah Abyss isn't great. There's a billion other better Tales games to play, maybe they'll bring one of those to the 3DS eventually.

The controls in Kid Icarus Uprising take some getting used to but once you do they're fine unless you are a child or unfortunate enough to be left handed. The ground levels are super fast paced and on the higher difficulties you need to be pretty precise and make a lot of quick actions. The only alternate control setup that could have preserved the way the combat feels is keyboard+mouse and, well, it's not like the game was ever going to come out on PC. Like, a Wii Remote or a dual analog controller would have "worked" technically but the lack of precision and speed in those control methods would have made the game lose a lot of what makes it cool in the first place.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:The Shovel Knight dudes have announced that Manami Matsumae (Mega Man!) will be contributing some music to their game, so that's kinda neat. The game has been fully funded, so they're doing stretch goals right now; they've also updated the reward tiers so people can receive two download codes for two different platforms instead of being restricted to one. I played this game at PAX East, it's pretty rad y'all

AngryCaterpillar posted:Clutter is the wrong word, I probably just used that because I remember the DKC manual referring to HUDs derisively in that way. To me it does affect the tone of the presentation though. Having Donkey Kong's face in the corner means it's the antithesis of the realistic approach of the original. It's no longer as if you're viewing real footage of a jungle. Yeah man life indicators really take me out of the illusion that I'm watching real footage of monkeys shooting out of a barrel like a cannonball

When I first played the game as a kid (before I knew he didn't speak all Olde English in the Japanese version, obviously) after I saw the flashback scene and how Frog talked like a scared dorky normal dude as Glenn I just figured he was trying really hard to put out some tough mysterious swordsman image. I kinda like it better like that.

Inzombiac posted:It's just an updated port or is there additional content like the Master's Quest in OOT3D? Either way I'm sure I won't be able to resist. Nothing on the scale of like entirely new levels or anything, but it does have a new challenge mode that requires you to know some tricks about the game engine and how scoring works to get high scores and a totally re-done (but still local only) multiplayer mode. Also a new easy mode and gyro controls but those are kinda lame.

Well then, check your local Best Buy's clearance rack/bin/whatever, because you could probably buy America's Test Kitchen: Let's Get Cooking for $1! I bought this for $5 a long time ago it's a pretty alright cookbook for your Nintendo game thing!

Yeah god I loving love the fatty DS's speakers and it bums me out every time Nintendo releases a handheld with speakers that aren't as good. It's the only handheld that lets you hear Kirby Super Star Ultra without being in a totally silent room (seriously why the gently caress did they make that game so quiet).

It's been a while since I played the demo (and I still haven't bought the full game yet) but I'm preeeeetty sure they had some kinda carry over mechanic in it. Whether it was just your party or everything I'm not sure.

Also keep in mind that in Swapnote specifically, Streetpass only works with people on your friends list so you can't sent pictures of your junk to strangers. Everywhere else it's just whoever has the game.

The thing I kinda worry about with VB games on the 3DS is that it's all red on a black background and the 3DS has some nasty ghosting in dark areas with the 3D on. But yeah I'd love a fully functional version of VB Wario Land or Teleroboxer that's actually portable instead of Virtual Boy portable.
