Man, what a fantastic demo. That was easily the best marketing for a video game I've seen in a while. Take five awesome levels from different parts of the game, and wrap it up in a great presentation with nice music and sound effects, and then tease how amazing the full game must be.
If I had the money, I would pre-order this in a heartbeat. As it stands, I will put my only unused Nintendo Points Card toward the DSi Shop just for the 50-level download version of the game (if it's still coming) even though I was gonna use it on Retro City Rampage and/or Mega Man 10 and Jett Rocket, among others, since the WiiWare version of Ivy is sadly canceled.
Congrats, Yuji Naka, you still have that magic touch.
EDIT: It's a value game as well ($20 on DS, $30 on Wii)?! Simply phenomenal. EDIT #2: The graphics look much nicer on Wii, but DS seems like it has the edge because of the touch screen and portability.
sorry, i just wasn't a fan of it at all. reminded me too much of why i hated Canvas Curse... by the time i kinda started to get the hang of things, I was already bored. The vines were hard to place/control because I normally write with a pretty steep slant, apparently, and it annoyed the crap outta me that you can't erase vines.
BEST THREAD EVER future of NL >:3

I find it interesting how divisive this demo is. The game only got a 6 in Game Informer.
corbie kinda mentioned in chat that you'd either love it or hate it. too bad i'm in the latter camp, i was totally ready to like this game :/
@PunnyGuy: Canvas Curse bored me to tears, it felt like one giant gimmick showing off the DS touchscreen. some aspects were far too easy, others were annoyingly difficult for me personally. didn't enjoy it at all, sorry. :3

@Odnetnin 6 in GI uhhhh I stopped getting GI because they pretty much only gave FPS's High scores and never really gave Wii or DS games as high of a score as everyone else. Although I dont know what they gave MH3 or DQ9 because I stopped LONG before those games were out yet, maybe theyve changed.

I had a pretty similar experience. It was frustrating when I didn't understand it, but once I got the hang of it, I grew tired of it.

The game was alright, but it was a bit too easy to play. Canvas Curse was little better then this.
For you, the day LordJumpMad graced your threads, was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday. [url=http://www.backloggery.com/jumpmad]Unive...
@Otaku Don't worry, I'm not renewing my subscription to GI once it runs out in a few months. Still, it's just kinda hard to see for me personally why they wouldn't like it. Hearing NL's thoughts helps though.

I get GI, mostly because I don't pay for it, and MH3 got a 7 and DQIX got an 8. However, Picross DS got a 9 for some reason.
I played the demo as long as I could. It was kinda stupid the Ivy goes back if she can't go one way. The same thing happened to me guys, once I got the hang of this game, I got bored.
Souls are for the weak. I flow with the darkness on the pathway of depression.
hahaha, are we joining sides now? i wasn;t aware it was that big a deal :3
