No one cares about Midna's transformation at the end? I was annoyed by her throughout the game, but turned around when she nearly died, then got annoyed again when I got the feeling I was being played.
Then we have the fact that you become mediator in a deteriorating love affair in Majora's Mask, or some schmaltz, while the earth is about to be destroyed.
Another thing that stuck was the Jabu-Jabu fish dungeon in Zora's domain and the final 3 minutes of Ganon Tower, with the Re-Dead and all.
The megadrive went bye bye because of this console. I distinctly remember the sound dominating over anything else. It had a great set of launch titles too.
"a game that takes platforming elements and adventure game elements and role-playing elements and merges them. So we couldn't tune the camera perfectly for platforming or for action adventure."
So, my guess is the Castle of Illusion comparisons go out the window.
Well, I'd rather download VC DK3, which I've never finished, than buy Returns, because this particular site gives it a 10. At the very least I'll be having a vintage Rare game then, instead of a limited '3d but really 2d for ol' times sake' Gamecube-ish mess.
I hate expansive in-game tutorials, but if it feels anything like Castle of Illusion with a tad of Banjo Kazooie, I'm getting it.
Damn unfair bussines going on in ice world. I rushed through it all before and didn't notice it, but the propellors off you just by landing on them. Crime glitch.
People come up with titles like Lords of Thunder or Gunstar Heroes, which are supposed to be on par or better. If it's any sort of obscure action vg, then that's not to say that it's all that great.
The music today is cheesy retro, but it's like nothing else, and very layered. They're musical numbers we hear instead of the average atmospheric noises. And the final moments of the game from the clock tower onwards are crazy.

Klaarover commented on Review: The Last Story (Wii):
I'm still stuck somewhere in Final Fantasy V land (It's massive). Afterwards I'll decide which one to buy; Xenoblade or this.

Klaarover commented on Nintendo Download: 19th January 2012 (Europe):
I always thought that the SNES movement didn't gel as well as the pc version, but it might have something to do with PAL.

Klaarover commented on Nintendo Has These Wii Games Planned for Early...:
Eh.... does that mean Strider, SFII online and Double Dragon II will be here before new year's eve?
#4
Klaarover commented on Feature: Memorable Zelda Moments:
@Lobster I agree. Hell, the first few day to night sequences, with all the changes in the light and the appearance of stalfos and more enemies too.

I've always liked becoming deity Link in MM.

Klaarover commented on Mega Drive Strider Confirmed For European Virt...:
Strider Hiryū's Cypher looked cool at the time. This title could have been a good series, but it never happened.
#7
Klaarover commented on Review: Xenoblade Chronicles (Wii):
This whole thing must've been an effort to push sales. It's gotten such a load of attention everywhere.

Klaarover commented on Zelda: Skyward Sword Hits Europe on 18th November:
Things spread out nicely, as I have zero interest in the rest of November's releases.

Klaarover commented on Zelda is No Longer Royalty in Skyward Sword:
Link meets Airy Pottah.

Klaarover commented on Square Enix Brings More SNES Goodies to Virtua...:
I've played some of VI before it got stolen, and I didn't like the melodrama aspect.
As for now I'm still tangled up in V, which is just fine.
#12
Klaarover commented on Japanese Virtual Console list - March 2011:
My GBA FF VI was stolen by some piece of filth. I get another chance.
#13
Klaarover commented on The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword:
Yeah, that orchestrated piece is standard trailer music from Twilight Princess. I did a YT vid with it years ago.

Klaarover commented on Ogre Battle 64 Hits Europe This Friday:
"This was the best Hanabi fest yet for us euroland gamers"
I agree.
And the real Final Fantasy 3 is a decent game also. They should not skip it.
#17
Klaarover commented on Nintendo Download: 19th March 2010 (Europe):
It's a shame they didn't translate it. What Maria says to Dracula at the end is quite funny.
#18
Klaarover commented on Castlevania: Rondo of Blood ESRB Rated:
I'll be waiting.
I like to see this and SOTN as a singular duology of anime Castlevanias, and forget about the anime assimilation the series has gone through.

Klaarover commented on Nintendo Blocking Third Party Releases On Virt...:
Well, if this is a one time incident I can live with it.. and without SR.
#20
Klaarover commented on Michael Jackson's Moonwalker Coming to Virtual...:
Haha, great
#21
Klaarover commented on Nintendo Download: Fantasies, Wars and Words (US):
I agree. I don't want to see III skipped because of the numerical mumbo jumbo. They could just copypasta the translation from any other version.
#22
Klaarover commented on Zombies Ate My Neighbors Heading to Virtual Co...:
That's grand, 'cause it doesn't work well playing multiplayer with the keyboard and emu rom.
#23
Klaarover commented on What SEGA games do you want to see on the Virt...:
I saw someone mention Zombies Ate My Neighbours. Well, if it isn't going to come out on any other platform anyway then please release it?
And come on; we already had enough Hedgehog compilations. I want Strider..
#24
Klaarover commented on What SEGA games do you want to see on the Virt...:
A) Strider
B) Revenge of Shinobi
C) Castle of Illusion
D) Bloodlines
E) Moonwalker
F) Out Run

Klaarover commented on The End Of The World Starts In Europe:
A good game with an interesting final part.
It isn't that old at all for a VC download. I still have it, but I haven't played it in years.

Klaarover commented on Top 10 platform games we want to come to the V...:
I'm in love with Addams Family
World of Illusion
Castle of Illusion
Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt

Download all of them and maybe we'll get a Wiiware...

Klaarover commented on EU VC Releases - NES Halloween Trio:
Since when was halloween bigger in Europe ever since it was spawned?
I'm so glad I live in Europe right now.
