I can't wait to play this.

Zach commented on Review: Back to the Future: The Game (Wii):
@Nick-Clegg I'll say. There's a lot of alcohol, some cursing, and a Prohibition-era burlesque dancer, so that's probably why.

@XCWarrior "Darn, was hoping this might get a better review than the one on Nintendo Life."

Zach commented on Nintendo Reveals New Super Mario Bros. 2 for 3DS:
I know it looks like Nintendo's running out of ideas, but I remember pining for a new Super Mario Bros type game. Many of you are growing up with NSMB and its variants, but 16 years went by between World and NSMB, and then three more before NSMB Wii for those of us who didn't own a DS. To me it doesn't look like overkill yet, and I'm happy to have more experiences to play the type of game that I longed for from 1990-2009.

Zach commented on Epic Mickey on 3DS is a Castle of Illusion Sequel:
It sounds awesome, but I get worried when I think about how many disappointing licensed DS sidescrollers there are. We'll see!

Zach commented on Resident Evil Revelations Producer Says Series...:
Well, I've had fun with you, Resident Evil. I guess I'll have to get more invested in the Silent Hill and Dead Space series, etc. Pretty annoying move if you ask me.

Zach commented on Capcom Admits It Can't 'Sugarcoat' Its Revelai...:
I think the biggest problem with Mega Man Legends 3 was the non-transparency of it. It looked revolutionary and interactive, but mixed messages — like hearing through a press release that a beta would come to the eShop upon its opening, then hearing through a Q&A (I think) that the game wasn't even green-lit by Capcom — speak volumes, and show that they were not 100% forthcoming on their side. I think if we'd known more about the struggles the team was clearly going through, in the best case scenario the fans would have come through and gathered grassroots support like they're doing now, and in the worst case scenario, we would have seen the cancellation coming instead of it feeling like a slap in the face.

Zach commented on This is How Game Gear Games Will Look on 3DS:
That looks great - but I sure hope they have an option to blow up the picture to fit the full screen better (without distorting it by stretching it, of course). Best of both worlds.

I know that Aahh! is likely intended to be pronounced like a sigh of relief, but I think that a panicked scream is much funnier, and that is how I shall read it.

This is my favorite game title since Oops! Prank Party.

Zach commented on RollerCoaster Tycoon 3D Hits the Skids:
Aww. Was looking forward to this - haven't played a game in the series but loved Sim Theme Park aka Theme Park World. They had an ad for this game inside the Centipede: Infestation box too... ah, jeez.

Yeah, really entertaining review Mark. I like reading about these bad games, especially when I can laugh while doing so.

@Godot I haven't tried to 100% it, but I didn't encounter any game breaking glitches on the way to finishing the main quest and doing some side stuff.

@LEGEND_MARIOID It was pretty close!

Zach commented on Review: LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Wii):
Happy 100th review to me!
Also, the opening is a reference to this short story by Michael Ian Black — very funny, but some explicit material, so be warned.

Zach commented on Choose How to Die in Devil Survivor 2:
They're probably not doing a 3DS version just yet because that would necessitate voice acting (if they wanted to keep the precedent set by Overclocked) and this was likely in development before they could reach a decision on that.

@lonlon-milker Actually Traveller's Tales has said they'd love to do a LEGO Doctor Who, they just need LEGO to release a Doctor Who set first.

Zach commented on Review: Paper Wars: Cannon Fodder (WiiWare):
@DarkEdi Per our scoring policy,
It's a decent game - it could be a good game, but the faults I've listed drag it down.
#46
Zach commented on Review: Paper Wars: Cannon Fodder (WiiWare):
@Ren Yeah it was close, but those difficulty spikes really off-set the experience for me.
@Kid_A That doesn't really apply to this. It has to do with presentation only.

Zach commented on Feature: Celebrating 10 Years of Animal Crossing:
In the days before the VC, this was a great way to play classic games you'd win. Unfortunately I transferred my pack-in games from the controller pak to a 3rd-party memory card that got corrupted. Lesson learned!
