I just noticed that the Donkey Kong Country games will no longer be available for purchase on the Wii Shop Channel soon. I can't find a solid reason why, but apparently this was decided just before the Wii-U launched- so it's probably due to some unfortunate legal shenanigans between Nintendo and Rare... Or it's because they're being remade in beautiful HD and all on the same disc for Wii-Uobviously not true

I'm looking forward to Super Metroid coming out, it's my all time favourite game and I've already played it countless times but none of my friends have. Now that some of my friends have Wii-Us they'll finally play it and hopefully want to borrow my Metroid Prime Trilogy disc after.

DarkHamsterlord posted:Does anyone else have trouble switching from left to right on the Gamepad's d-pad without hitting up or down in the process? It's making Super Metroid all but unplayable for me, because I can't pull off walljumps consistently, and I've completely forgotten how to even play without doing silly jumps and breaking sequence.

Just posting to say Urban Trial Freestyle is an excellent game, and you should all download it immediately. There aren't tons of tracks or bikes, but definitely enough for the discounted price going this week. The track creator is exclusive to the 3DS version but unfortunately I don't think there's any way to share your creations. I say it's worth buying. edit- Just unlocked the challenges, they're really hard .TakaM fucked around with this message at 08:24 on Jun 28, 2013 |

Wooo! Buying Earthbound feels good man. The only game in the series I've played was Mother3 and I've been waiting for a legit way to buy Earthbound ever since, I tried it on emulator many times but it's just not the same and I felt like I was ruining my virgin playthrough. Can't wait to get into this, but it will probably have to wait until I finish M&L Dream Team

I'm quite looking forward to Airace Speed, the first two Airace games were some of the very best DSiware games. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWvceaoLt6Q Here's a trailer for the new 3DS game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XuiFoh7nbI I like that it's pretty much in the TRON universe now

I bought Airace on the eshop, pretty cool little game, kinda like a flying F-Zero. The music is pretty bland and the framerate isn't 100% consistent, but it mostly runs at a buttery 60fps with 3D on. I really really like the 3D, it feels like you get a wider view than any other game I've played and it helps a lot with identifying the obstacles ahead and enhances the sense of speed. I've only done a few courses but I'm already happy with this purchase, it was pretty cheap and I can see myself going for time trials.

Hyper Light Drifter has reached its kickstarter WiiU stretch goal, you can now look forward to downloading this from the eshop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmMosNHhyxI You may remember Teslagrad from a recent Nintendo Direct https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGhe_zEt9-E You can download a PC demo right now, shaping up to be a great metroidvania and I think I'll buy it as soon as its on the eshop.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:-Does anyone remember VD-DEV, the European demoscene dudes who COP: The Recruit for DS and a bunch of GBA games (V-Rally, that one 3D Asterix game, Driver?)? No? Well, they're teasing an upcoming 3DS eShop game called IronFall; they're gonna do an official reveal in a week or two, but we do know it'll be a third-person shooter that'll "push the 3DS to its limits". Let's hope it's actually fun, it seems like these demoscene games rarely are. I'm really looking forward to seeing what their new game looks like because it's guaranteed to be some of the best graphics on 3DS.

The first Jett Rocket was pretty bland but still a solid platformer and graphically very impressive for wiiware. I'm interested to see more of the sequel, Shinens sequels are always better. F-Zero fans should keep an eye on another Shinen game in development- FAST Racing Neo, a sequel to their other wiiware graphical showcase.. Who knows, this might be the closest thing to F-Zero on WiiU we ever get. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sNxZ7wcXyI Also Child of Light continues to look amazing.

irlZaphod posted:Has anyone picked up Jett Rocket? I never played the WiiWare original, the sequel looks really good from the video on the eShop, though. Plenty of variety between platforming and shooter levels. If you haven't got Super Mario 3D Land yet you shouldn't even consider Jett Rocket 2

If you guys haven't tried any of the new 3D Sega classics, you should download 3D Galaxy Force II ASAP. M2 are doing an amazing job and the Nintendo 3D classics seem pathetic by comparison

It really bugs me how in the videos for GBA games, they show the startup screen letter-boxed with the GBC resolution. I'm looking forward to playing Metroid Fusion again, not the best Metroid game- but still excellent, I doubt there will ever be another Metroid that tops Super. (or Prime if you're in that camp) And Golden Sun.... HHnnnggg, I really don't need to buy it, I played through both games several times and I still have the carts and a working GBASP... But I don't think I'll be able to resist it, strong nostalgia for Golden Sun I guess.

I'm really enjoying F-Zero Maximum Velocity, I still love mode7 racers and this is one of the best. It would be amazing if you could use the gamepad and the TV as two separate GBAs for multiplayer..

I think all F-Zero games are pretty great and worth getting. Between SNES and GBA I would pick the GBA games, smoother graphics, better control, better music, more tracks, more vehicles, etc.

I pretty much ignored Child of Light because I assumed Ubisoft would be charging over $100(NZD) for it, pleasantly surprised with the actual price and I'll buy it in the next week or two.

Sarchasm posted:Opinions are pretty split on Nintendo's handling of the Virtual Console service, and people (like myself) who aren't satisfied with the service have done a pretty good job of saying why, but the dissenters only ever seem to say "Lay off Nintendo, jeez, nothing makes you people happy!" My favourite thing is that they make trailers for each VC game, they put some actual effort into showing the whole game and not just the first minute of gameplay. One thing I can't ignore is that it would have been amazing if the gamepad and TV counted as two GBAs for multiplayer games

Kurtofan posted:I don't know if you can go back and add languages later. Nintendo is definitely getting better at internet services, of course they still have a long way to go. But they're giving developers, even indie developers a ton of freedom- like letting them name the price, able to put their stuff on sale whenever they want, there's even that one game that has cross-buy between WiiU and 3DS

The only thing you can point out and call bad are the 30fps assist trophies/etc and it's barely noticeable. Smash Bros looks amazing on the 3DS, the framerate really seals it as one of the best looking 3DS games, I wouldn't listen to anyone disappointed by the graphics. Has anyone made some progress into Teslagrad? I see it has some presentation problems but it really seems like my kinda game. I'm interested in hearing about the gameplay, I played the PC demo a while ago and it felt a bit loose and floaty- it looks like they tightened it up a bit since then but I can't really tell from videos
|
# ¿ Sep 14, 2014 22:03 |

Well Teslagrad is a pretty short game, I didn't collect all the things so I guess that's all that's left for me to do. It's a decent game but the price is a bit much considering the length

from what I've heard it's not that gratuitous with the boobs, there are a lot of dialog portraits and they all use the 3D to emphasize different gestures and poses- like the mayors gut or when they point a finger etc I wasn't super psyched for the game but I was probably going to get it just for the pixel art alone, it's great to see it getting such great reviews... Now I just have to wait for it to come out in AUS/NZ
