I'm actually really excited. Though I personally prefer the cape from World, if the 'real' tanooki suit from SMB3 (as opposed to 3D Land's limited tanooki suit) is gonna be in this game, and you can fly over the whole level should you choose ala SMB3 and SMW, then I'm going to be really excited. Flying in 2D Mario games is awesome, just adding another way to play
If they can do PS3 quality graphics now, when the console isn't even out yet, who knows what it'll be capable of 3-4 years down the line? So it still sounds like it could be a decent leap up from the PS3/360
This game sounds a lot better than I initially thought. I'm going to pick it up soon for sure :3 I hope the online works better with my crappy connection than MK7 did, as I can never seem to play more than two races consecutively without disconnecting
Wow, that is really cool. I really want to try Shinobi, but I guess I'll also get Sonic the Hedgehog even though (from the tiny bit I played) of i the gamegear version it wasn't that great imo
Wow, this is looking really good. If it has a single player 'adventure' like Power Tour on GBA, I'll get it for sure. Never played any other Mario Tennis games, but from what I hear they don't have any thing like that, so I'm guessing this won't either
I'm still not excited for this game at all, but that is a pretty cool feature, I must admit. [insert something about waiting to get it used/at a discounted price here ]
I dunno, it definitely looks good, reminds me of an N64 game, but I think I'll wait for the review, though I will most likely end up buying it eventually, sometime after I get Pushmo, Mighty Switch Force and Mutants Mudds.
@zezhyrule yeah well, if you were a real MGS fan you'd also own the original Snake Eater version of MGS3, smh. >:[ And you'd have them all :C: by now. >:[ this coming from a MGS noob ofc " />
And the CD is no slouch either. If this is included in the non-Amazon $49.99 price point (and if it comes to NA ) then it definitely justifies the extra ten bucks imo. Awesome.
Edit: Oh, actually re-reading it, it sounds like it'll have to be purchased seperately, not included with the game, lol.
Bleh, I really have to get a bigger SD card if I want to play this, lol. I had to clear out some of the crap just to fit my gBA games on the thing, and then even more of the crap some of which I wanted to keep ;___; to get the Swapnote to fit D:
2GB just isn't big enough for me any more ;_______;
@warioswoods, haha yeah, exactly, it's getting ridiculously good scores across the board, so I most likely will end up renting it at the very least, as I absolutely love 2D platformers, just as of right now, it's probably the lowest on my priority list right now tbh.
Also, yes DKCR was the best thing to happen to the 2D platformer since Super Mario World imo. :3 I honestly can't think of a thing I would change in it, besides maybe the way lives are given out between P1 and P2.
@Mr. Reece lmao okay, I suppose I'll trust you on the subject of it's controls, especially as that's what everybody seems to be saying, but I'll just have to play it for myself before I can say anything.Just out of curiosity, as anyone here played both the Wii and PS3 versions of the game? If so, which is beter? Obviously the Wii version doesn't have the benefit of HD visuals, but besides that, are the levels and such exactly the same?
Bleh, I dunno, I don't find the art style at all attractive, and it just looks so loose and the sounds, at least from the gameplay videos and trailers I've seen make it sound incredibly irritating. I might rent this, but probably won't.
The only thing even remotely special about these games today s the awesome GBA graphics. The rest was pretty passable, generic even. Bleh. and the DS game doesn't even look so hot compared to to ther games
@pizzacore Again, you must have thought the 3DS was worth $250 when it launched, or else you wouldn't have gotten one. Nintendo is well within their rights to change the price at any time, and they had no obligation to 'repay' you for anything. Yet they did. And if you s don't like one of the games that they're giving you for free then you don't have to download them; save your storage for something you do like. There is absolutely no reason to be complaining about the price drop whatsoever.
@Viewtiful Joe Double Dash had more innovations than simply adding a second karter. Each character (or set of chatacters -think: Koopa, Paratroopa; Toad, Toadette; Mario, Luigi) had unique items that only they could get. Koopa/ Paratroopa had triple shells, and Mario/Luigi had those triple flame things. They gave the game a more strategic approach that hasn't been seen sine, unfortunately.
I cannot wait for Pikmin 3. Seeing how immensely detailed and beautiful the first two games were and still are today makes me very excited to see the world in glorious HD. Can't. Wait. n____n
I love how when Nintendo finally announces their HD system, evverybody complains that it's not what they wanted or that they're ntot buying it when that's exactly what they've been griping about ever since the Wii launched. I'll never understand people.
