Got it on 3DS and beat it. Holy poo poo what a great game. Storyline question: So Black Knight was also in love with Shield Knight all along, but was he also your bro? Or was he always Shovel Knight's rival for Shield Knight's hand?

You guys have it all wrong. The correct progression would be Super Shovel Knight.

On the 3DS you can quick swap all your bombs around by tapping the touchscreen with your thumb.

Stabbey_the_Clown posted:I got him with Cascade Powder. So far I've found all the coins, although I probably should not have wasted 50 of them on the catapult instead of unlocking more upgrades. I did this, but now I have a Red Robe so I can't complain. Really want this sparkling powder everyone is on about.

Solution to the patch... never exit the game on your 3DS and just close it to put it to sleep!

DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:a harder challenge is as follows: do not smile at Mona and Plague Knight's interactions I like how the Magicist has a crush on Plague Knight and gets really nervous around him, too,and PK is completely oblivious. In general the DLC is just plain loving adorable.

A Steampunk Gent posted:You would have to design The Enchantress and if you wanted to do it properly you could do all the NPCs, most of the bosses have fairly gender neutral appearances though and I'm not sure what you could do with them without putting them all in boob-plate and skirts Blizzard Knight as a Brünhilde style valkyrie would kick rear end. Lurdiak posted:I don't think it's a crush so much as she's flattered/flustered by the attention. Which can feel very much like having a crush. She has a specific quote where she comments on how well played his mask is... pretty sure she wants to experiment with a different sort of alchemy.

JustJeff88 posted:So, are they releasing physical copies of the game next month? I already have the GOG version and a digital copy on the Wii U, but the GOG one was a gift and I only paid a tenner for the Wii U version. Given that and also that I wasn't involved in the kickstarter, I'd like to get the devs some more money. So, if I'm reading this right, I'll plump for a 3DS cartridge in about four weeks. I dunno, man, you may only get, like, an hour out of enjoyment out of that cartridge, and I'm not sure it'd be worth the money.

apostateCourier posted:I don't even have a Wii-U and I want a Plague Knight (and a Mona) amiibo. Only if you can put them together so they look like they're dancing. Also, seriously... you guys, there's totally a love triangle thing going with the Magicist. Both women dig PK, but he's totally oblivious to the Magicist and is flustered by Mona. It's so blatantly obvious from all of the dialogue in the game over and over, I really don't see how a bunch of you were arguing otherwise.

Sade posted:There is definitely some dialogue early on that might lead somebody to believe that the magicist is into Plague Knight, but you're right that ultimately this was the punchline of their interactions. Ah, I haven't beaten the DLC yet. The other stuff with her suggesting he do stuff and telling him what she likes, particularly that line where she says she could get used to how the light glints off his bird mask, coupled with a few minions even commenting on how she's risking a lot to help out PK, and also when both Percy and Baz make comments about her eying PK, plus when Mona runs off and accuses PK of being into the Magicist all together made it seem like she had a thing for him and that was why she was helping him out, and was being not-so-subtle about it but PK is totally not noticing because he's too into Mona to care.

I'm bummed the coop is only on Wii U, what bullshit. Wonder why they couldn't do it on 3DS... even if it's local play only you can still do that on 3DS with local wifi.

jivjov posted:Incorrect. No, objectively correct, despite your biased leanings. It's a very real question as to whether Nintendo will ever have a mainstream console that can stand toe to toe with whatever Sony and Microsoft can plan out, again. The Wii U sold like hot rear end.

I think you guys are missing my point. Saturn owners said the same things 15 years ago, and by and large they were correct. Doesn't change the economics of the situation, Nintendo has lost a LOT of money off the Wii U.

JustJeff88 posted:Perhaps, but the original Wii was incredibly successful even if it did mostly piss me off and the original NES revitalised a dead industry - the SNES was also very successful. I realise that there are two major consoles fighting it out with them right now, but I'm not willing to count Nintendo out yet especially with whispers that they are already working on their next console. Even if they did bow out of the console market while Sony and MS stay in, their core titles are still amazingly popular and they would continue to sell on other systems, if they went that route. Ever since the original X-Box there has been no reason to own both the MS console and the Sony one, and if either Sony or MS managed to get exclusive rights to publish Mario games, they would have a huge leg up on the other. Right, which is exactly the same story as SEGA with the Genesis and Saturn. They will probably just move whole-hog to the portable market because they're murdering it there... I get the feeling even if we never see another Nintendo home console again, they'll never license their IPs to anyone else and eberything will just be portable from then on. But anyway, enough derail. Need more shovel... just bought the 3DS theme in preparation!

elf help book posted:Is there a difference between using the free soundtrack coupon included in the physical copy of the game or just going to Virt's bandcamp and naming your price to $0? Is this just a coupon so someone doesn't feel guilty doing that? You should pay virt and not be a dick. He's a good guy. Otherwise use the coupon because, well, you have one. But donating zero is supremely dickheaded, just on principle.

The Amiibo also works although there's no coop. Nihilarian posted:EDIT: for Plague Knight's DLC, is his bomb customization done on the 3ds touch screen or do you still have to pause to switch anything? You can swap it on the fly with the touch screen or you can pause and do it. You can also pause it and then still use the touchscreen, which is pretty great.

Next game has SotN level graphics and effects and from the start you're exploring an open world in a similar vein to Metroid/SotN and as you rescue other knights from the Order of No Quarter they join your team and become the hidden traversal mechanics to access new areas and secrets. Mole Knight can tunnel into new areas and survive hot areas. Polar Knight can traverse the ice area without slipping, taking cold damage, or freezing. Propeller Knight can do super flight and reach high areas. Spectre Knight can phase through grates and run up walls. Treasure Knight has a secrets radar that reveals hidden areas on the map and has a higher drop rate. Plague Knight can blow up obstacles and launch him(her)self across chasms. Tinker Knight can repair ancient machines and robots to open routes or commander mechanical enemies to fight for you. King Knight is a badass fighter and has a Royal Seal type key to open a major door or two, and can glide with his cape. Shield Knight is available as an alternate campaign, or you can 2 player coop with her(him) and either of you can swap to other knights, round robin style. A man can dream.
