Krome Studios Says It Would Like To Port Ty 2 And 3 To Nintendo Switch

I think I have a copy of the first game on PS2 somewhere. Didn't play it much, though.

No thanks. I played 2 and it had the blandest level design and progression ever, they wanted to go open world and it made the game worse, it feels so soulless. Never played 3, but I know it's in the same mold as 2, so I'm not really interested. 1 was a wonderful sandbox platformer, but most of what made that game good didn't carry over to its sequels.

I always think he’s a character from a very old Dreamcast game called Fur Fighters but I know he’s not. Lol

@Cevil right. Like I want to purchase but I’d want the physical version of this.

I love these games! I really hope Ty succeeds...

@Bolt_Strike I'd say I'd rank the games 3 > 1 > 2... if the HD version fixed the fact that 3 was rather glitchy due to EA forcing it out several months early on it's original release. The glitches were the only thing holding it back from being better than 1 on the GCN releases. It was definitely a very different sort of game rather than a pure collectathon, but it was really good at what it did.

First one is the only decent one.

Never played any of these games back in the gamecube/xbox/ps2 era, even though I seen it all the time. I was interested in this Switch release but found out that it's digital only so I'll wait.

I'm still working through my copy on the Gamecube of the first copy and the price of the port digitally is too expensive for me to double dip, but if the second and maybe even third game came over I would buy the HD versions instead of the Gamecube versions.

I backrd this and have been playing it since it's release. It's a decent game but not enough to convince me to buy 2 or 3. Let's be honest, though, I'll buy anything. Haha!

@link3710 Correction EA did not publish the third entry of Ty it was Activision.

Will Nintendo Life be doing a review of Ty The Tasmanian Tiger HD for Switch?

I would love to try them, the first game was good.

Eh, make a new one? (Even though it's probably not a great idea? I mean Shaq Fu got a sequel and Bubsy got two new games so...)

Own all 3 Ty games on the Cube but in 2020 $30 a bit steep for a digital copy how bout $15 ?? I WOULD do $30 for a retail copy however! LR you listening?? I Hope to see the other 2 follow!

@LaytonPuzzle27 Oops nice catch. That whole games publishing was a total mess back in the day.

@fadedcolors The devs want to, but without EA/Activision backing the series any more they don't have the budget. They made a 2D sidescroller Ty just to raise funds to remaster the old titles.

Hey- I got an idea! How about no?

I was like others here since I always buy physical when it's an option(hell, I have Animal Crossing physical) but this was the rare exception that I just said to heck with it and downloaded(I mean it's only 2gigs unlock typical retail, so that makes it more bearable as well). Should it get a physical release I'll probably nab a copy of that anyways.

I've def been having fun with the OG rn either way, though not sure if I'd nab the other two unless they have a trilogy cart.

Well, tbh I never managed to complete the second one back in the day and never played the 3rd. I'd probably get them both.

@Bolt_Strike

2 had the bland open world style, 3 improved the open world very significantly to the point where thats the best thing about the game. Even just driving the vehicle itself is super fun, in comparison to the slow truck of 2.

Keep in mind i said best, because the combat was a huge downgrade due to them reworking it to melee combat. That's where the game fell heavily, the missions themselves were worse than 2's, the combat just wasn't 'ty', and the story was written by gamefreak, not literally but that pretty much describes it. All the characters deviated from their original character plots, the whole 'other worldy cliche' isnt done well, and some of the motives of the characters is just stupid.

@Araquanid The missions were part of what made 2 so bland though, instead of going around collecting Thunder Eggs, you were completing random tasks in dull, empty levels. That much doesn't really seem to have changed in 3, especially with the darker atmosphere of that game. 1's levels are much more alive and feel like they have a purpose, and even though the game itself isn't open world, the design feels much more open, as opposed to 2 and 3 which only really feels all that open during the vehicle sections. 2 and 3 threw all of that out the window and are worse games for it.

Um... The article says if digital copies sell well there may be a physical release. So if I want to get a physical copy I should download it first, hoping they will release a physical copy then buy it again. That makes perfect sense.

Really hope 2 and 3 make it over to the Switch, i'd definitely get them.
