Yeah, totally would've LOVED to play online. I bet you anything they wanted to but Nintendo is to blame.

for any person who is stil curious:

the game is the same as the last game, with other maps (there are less maps here, though) and other characters (well, half of the characters are new ), but for LESS than HALF the price, the original was great enough on its own.

the same great game-some maps+faster loading+playable corbie warplane-300 points=must buy for people who didnt bought the original

for people who did buy the original, well, its kind of like a expansion pack and since it is much more lighter than the original it is also a great way to keep playing it whilst making space for another game
Seriously, they did a great job at compressing the game even more!

my thumb still hurts after some time though

Wow, sounds great, since I wasn't quite convinced to buy the original when it came out, but now I can get a pretty similar experience for 200 points and I only have to buy the original if I absolutely fall in love with this and want more.

Okay, I got it. I found it a little disorienting looking at the 2 different screens at first, but once you start to learn the maps it's easier. This probably wouldn't ordinarily be the type of game I would want for 500 points, but for 200 points this is pretty amazing. I think I still prefer Aura-Aura Climber to this, although I might change my mind after playing multiplayer.

So if im getting anyone of the both games I should buy these 200pts one?

Man's worst enemy is laziness.

I only have the 200-point version, the amount of content is definitely worth it. I think getting the 500-point version would just make multiplayer more enjoyable, or if you really want more stuff. At the start, you only have one map, one character, and one playmode unlocked, but it doesn't take long to unlock everything else.

There are three maps, the two playmodes --capture the flag, and a version where there's multiple flags at flagpoints-- and two teams of four characters each.

I'll assume the bonus content with the 500-point version upgrades you to three teams of six characters --two teams of six in each game, Almost Black being in both-- and twelve maps (six when you play original Pop Island, and three bonus extras for Paperfield?)

First impressions were great. But then I found the first three characters to be boring, but when I unlocked Mano the hovertank and started using the stylus controls it was a lot more fun. They need to transfer DSiWare to 3DS just so that this can be played with the analogue instead of d-pad

Edit: The original comes with eight maps.

@Abgar: Try Stylus controls. They ease the pain and actually improve accuracy on the field.
I'm still wondering if I should get this, but I'm still waiting for a review, Shantae's price, and Shantae's review.

Does it have NO FRIEND CODE MULTIPLAYER?! If it just has friend codes, then we should start a forum on that and schedule matches for both Paperfield and the original.

labrat, do you mean wifi? I don't think that's an option.

Hulk - You should probably get this one.

Labrat - Friend codes are used for online play. Neither the original nor Paperfield has Wi-Fi, so that would be pointless.

Exactly.

Now I'm going to have a hard time picking what to get....
Paperfield or Aura-Aura

For you, the day LordJumpMad graced your threads, was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday.

JumpMad - Simple. Get Paperfield if you have people to play multiplayer with, or Aura-Aura if you don't. Or just get another points card and get both!

Exactly.

You can touch the map to drive, giving you 360 aim. The d-pad is used as abxy when using the touch screen. I found it hard to drive on the road, but the hover tank isn't really affected by terrain so worked great for me.

Apparently you can use the sylus to control the movement of you character. I don't use it because I'm a righty and the D-Pad works just fine.

Exactly.

I did read it and saw no mention of it. XD

Anyway, I just tried now and it's true. Thanks for the info! Gonna play around with it more.

edit:
So, what's your high-score? My best is 167 so far but if I'm not mistaken I got over 200 on the original.
