I can't wait for what the future tracks offer in the game, the music has been great so far, it never ceases to amaze me how Nintendo's team manages to come up with these great memorable melodies.

Tengames posted:Well then nevermind, thats pretty impressive. I guess they just did it to make everything more visible in the avalanche. It's a thematic thing they also did in several iconic levels in the first game- there I think it was fog-themed, with one occurring in smoke from a volcano and another using red and black in a factory.

The only "caveat" I'd give to Tropical Freeze, especially compared to most 3-D Mario games, is that it is loving hard. It's brutal hard, it will loving murder you by world 2 and it doesn't let up. The bonus temples are especially vindictive. None of it is bad at all, it's all great fun but if you've been weaned on babby games for a few years, Donkey Kong will kick your teeth in and shove a banana down your throat until you cry.

Luigi is basically the best. Except for Waluigi, but Waluigi will never be a playable character outside any of the party/sport games.

So is this like the thing where they draw angry eyebrows on Kirby for US audiences, or is Luigi just officially now the heel in a 1989 film about race car drivers?

Nintendo had a big drop in profit during the Year of Luigi, I like to imagine people blaming that on him instead of bad Wii U sales has worn him down into a cold, tired, go-karting murder-machine. You want profits? Here's your profits.

Trying to get a concensus on which of the two is better is basically impossible. Some people think Rayman Legends is the best 2D platformer of all time and others think Tropical Freeze is the best platformer of all time. All things considered though you probably won't be disappointed. Rayman Legends is really good. Bruceski posted:Waluigi's entire shtick is being a poor sport. It works great in the games he's in but it can't hold up a normal platformer like Wario's "grab all the coins because you're Wario" thing. Uhm that actually sounds perfect for the kind of player in-fighting that the New Super Mario Bros games and Mario 3D World encourage.

If you're more into the Sonic-y type gameplay of going fast and Gamepad gimmick levels, you'll love Rayman. If you're into the slower, well, DKC type of platforming challenges (very,VERY challenging in the case of both DKCR and Tropical Freeze) with kinda lame bosses then Tropical Freeze is for you. But honestly both games are great so get them both.

The Rayman games feel almost like iOS-style auto-runners to me, inasmuch as the levels, enemy placements etc are designed to keep you on a certain "line" and once you find that optimal line they're just there as fodder to mindlessly bounce off without having to think too hard, whereas DKC makes you think a little harder about each obstacle and doesn't ever put you on auto-pilot to the same degree (aside from the literal on-rails stages, I guess, but even they give you a decent amount of latitude).
