Nintendo World Report's full review is in: 7/10.

They loved the time rewinding mechanic, the humorous premise/music/graphics, & the fact that it offers more freedom than the genré usually allows.

They disliked the obstacles that can only be noticed by hitting them, the over reliance on memorization, & there's some delay in the menus.

So far:
WiiWareWave - 7.7/10
NWR - 7/10
Nintendojo - C (decent)
Nintendo Lifeline - no score (but was impressed with the game)

NWR rated 2 Fast 4 Gnomz higher than NightSky. I understand scores are not as important than the review itself. I understand that scores are a superficial summary of a review. But this cannot be right.

NWR has had some controversial scores with other titles too, like Denpa Men and Sakura Samurai. Although I like NightSky and would give it a high8/low 9, I'm more inclined to agree with NWR then NL simply because a 10 should be an outlier reserved for the best of the best.

Every score seem to range around a C grade, or 70-79%. This sounds decent, but not something I'd immediately burn 8 bucks for. A demo would be nice.

This is a signature.

The game costs 5 bucks. A demo will be available later.

I would like to ask the opinion of the readers of this thread:
Would you be interested if I organised this little competition:

  • Until 16 November (or later, to be decided) you can send me a proof of how much time you needed to complete one nightmare level (one to be decided). The best time will receive an official T-Shirt from us.
    Would you, gamers, be interested into this kind of competition?

S/He could still ask NL to host the contest if s/he wanted right?

Like the Toki Tori contest and others.

Sorry. I don't want to host a competition here on NL, I just woud like to know the opinion of gamers about this kind of competition. I just want to know what they think. Then if I decide to create a competition I will create a news on our own website, and not a thread on NL.
I hope this is okay. If not, I can delete my previous post.

You don't need to be assigned to reviewing the game to play it. It's available to everybody in the e-Shop

Well, you've got me there, I admit. Sorry if that sounded like I'd only buy it if I were reviewing it...I just meant that I have some other titles I need to be playing before I jump into something just for fun.

Having said that, this is definitely a purchase for me, especially after Morgan's review. Looking forward to it!

Okay, I've spent some time with it after all and I have to say I'm not having nearly the trouble distinguishing obstacles from background art with this one. The 3D effect is subtle (I don't mean that as a bad thing) but it's just enough to keep things straight, once you get used to it.

I'm already going back to perfect earlier levels, which is something I wasn't as excited to do on the WiiWare version. Very happy with this one!

Like undead_terror said, the game will be released in Europe in not a long time. I don't know the official day yet.

@Philip_J_Reed
Thank you, I am glad you enjoy it.

I would like to resurrect this topic as 2 Fast 4 Gnomz is now available on the eShop in Europe.

So, dear European 3DS owners, feel free to ask any questions or share any reactions to me about the game.
You can see the trailer on my first post and already read several reviews of the game in some Nintendo related websites (including Nintendo Life), as it is already out in North America for more than a month.

I am looking forward to reading your posts and answering you.

Looks good. Will download this sometime in the future. Just need to get an eShop card!

Sorry to go off topic here, @QubicGames, but is AiRace still in the making for 3DS?

Hey, no problem @RyanO I can answer about AiRace.
Yes AiRace Speed will be released on 3DS mid-2013 at the latest. The gameplay will be similar to AiRace: Tunnel but the game will be much bigger and more sophisticated.
