If anyone is upset by this review and thinks that the reviewer is being unfair, or isn't the right person to review this game... well, Hardcore Gaming 101 was pretty negative about it too! http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/piersolar/piersolar.htm
Farsight Studios? This was made by the same people as the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis version of Action 52! I see their level of quality hasn't changed over the years!
This is awesome! I've played Wario Land 4 to death, and it is a very strange and surreal game as well as being absolutely fantastic. I'll be very interested to read this!
Tch, we Europeans deserve this! We're still waiting for games like Etrian Odyssey 4 and Soul Hackers, and look at the article under this one! You get that cool Fire Emblem/SMT4 promotion, and we have no idea when we'll be getting the latter game! We'll be lucky if we do at all, we sure didn't get any of the Atlus DS games!
Activision are certainly making a habit of publishing clearly unfinished, broken games! Lately there's been Black Ops Declassified, The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct and now this!
He sounds like he's struggling in this advert, that's unfortunate! Well, he is 76 years old now... but he sounds fine in this advert for the original version of DKC Returns! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxrEEWlT0-w
I usually buy retail versions of games whenever possible, since I love having physical copies to display on my shelves, but yeah, having this one as a download makes sense - so I chose it as my free 'So Many Games' game!
@Pixel-Perfect Castlevania Rebirth is fantastic! I'd love to see more games in the series like that! I'm sure they wouldn't require very much budget, so Konami could release them alongside the bigger budget Castlevania games designed to appeal to the mainstream, right...?
A shame the lame 3DS game is selling so much better than the good Wii U one! Also a shame that FIFA 13 is selling so well, I'm ashamed of my country! But it's good that Luigi's Mansion 2 is still going strong~
The Check Mii Out channel will be missed, it's a great way to find lots of amusing Miis to download! I hope the Wii U gets something like it. Also I will raise a glass to poor News cat...
@Hunter-D Code of Princess was self-published by the developers in Europe, Atlus didn't have a hand in it... but yeah, as much as I like having physical copies of games, that would be a good idea! @BakaKnight I think it was only available online!
This game is so fantastic, it's so well designed and endlessly satisfying when you manage to beat levels! Do it properly guys, don't use save states! I'm able to beat this game on an actual NES and I suck at life so I'm sure you can do it too! However, having this game on a handheld console may not be the best idea... it's okay when you throw a controller out of frustration, but probably not your 3DS!
I think Brownie Brown was a much nicer name, 1-UP Studio sounds generic as hell! And hey, they've made some great stuff - not mentioned here, they also made Sword of Mana on GBA
@TysonOfTime @MrWalkieTalkie Your GIFs are very appropriate, this is extremely awesome news!! I really hope the game sells better over here so the localisers don't regret their decision!
Best downloadable game: Minecraft (Xbox 360)
A stripped down, late port of a PC game, wow! That beats out all the great downloadable titles released this year!
YouTube gamer award: Yogscast
God no
Outstanding contribution: EA Sports & FIFA
Outstanding contribution to what? Ripping people off?
These awards are terrible! They're either run by frat boys with horrible taste in games, or they're accepting bribes!

Re: Feature: Celebrating 25 Years Of A Legendary Final Fantasy Title
@CaviarMeths FF14 is incredibly popular, it has millions of people playing it - it probably helps that it pays a lot of tribute to classic FF games

Re: New Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy Release Hinted at in Trademark
This game is awesome and I played it for way too long, but it could definitely use some improvements - I hope this is a sequel!
Re: Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Reportedly Sells Less Than 2000 Copies in Debut Week
I would get it too! But with sales like this, they'll hardly feel encouraged to localise it...
Re: Boulder Dash-XL 3D Digging Its Way to the 3DS eShop
The art design in this game is just awful, they could've made it cute and charming like Boulder Dash EX on the GBA...
Re: One Piece: Romance Dawn Won't Be Sailing To North America
Also I hope this game is good, I love Chopper... and the other game where you can play as him isn't very good ;w;

@Strongo9 Hear hear!
Re: New 3DS Firmware Update 6.0.0-11U Now Live
The new Streetpass games are awesome, definitely worth the money for the combo pack! And I love that a cute bunny mii sells them to you~
Re: New 3DS Firmware Update 6.0.0-11U Now Live
Woah! This Streetpass update excites me! I must download the update!
Re: Review: Spelunker (Wii U eShop / NES)
They should bring Spelunker HD to the Wii U eShop, a cool remake that was made because of the original game's memetic status amongst Japanese gamers!
Re: Zelda Series Timeline Wasn't Planned From the Beginning
Excellent choice of article picture, oahohohohohohahahaha!
Re: Don't Look Now, But There Could Be A New Shaq Fu Game Inbound
The worst fighter ever? Try Time Killers on the Mega Drive/Genesis!
Re: Prince Vultan Soars Onto UK Television To Promote Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D

Re: Round Table: Let's Talk About the 3DS
@JayArr I don't know how you've managed that my moogley friend, when there are so many great games being released for it this year!
Re: Ubisoft Confident Its Titles Will Attract Gamers To Wii U
Guys, you do know that if you'd kept Rayman Legends exclusive to Wii U it likely would've attracted gamers to it, right...?
Re: European Gamers Bemoan PAL Version of Super Metroid
@Mamegoma Good comment!
Re: Konami: We Had To Take Risks With Castlevania To Prevent It Becoming Like Mega Man
@Pixel-Perfect Castlevania Rebirth is fantastic! I'd love to see more games in the series like that! I'm sure they wouldn't require very much budget, so Konami could release them alongside the bigger budget Castlevania games designed to appeal to the mainstream, right...?
Re: LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins Still Investigating the UK Top 10

Re: Review: Sengoku (Wii Virtual Console / Neo Geo)
I'm voting for Sengoku 3 too, that game is fantastic!
Re: Nintendo to Pull the Plug on Several Online Wii Channels
The Check Mii Out channel will be missed, it's a great way to find lots of amusing Miis to download! I hope the Wii U gets something like it.
Also I will raise a glass to poor News cat...
Re: Etrian Odyssey IV European Release Pushed to Summer
Now watch as it gets released here with game breaking bugs like a certain other 3DS JRPG that Europe waited a long time for~
Re: European Release of Devil Survivor Overclocked Marred By Game-Breaking Bugs
@Hunter-D Code of Princess was self-published by the developers in Europe, Atlus didn't have a hand in it... but yeah, as much as I like having physical copies of games, that would be a good idea!
@BakaKnight I think it was only available online!
Re: MercurySteam Still Interested In Developing A Contra Title
"The thing about Contra is that since Contra III was not a mainstream game more - but the rest are absolute core gamer title."

Re: Ghostlight May Yet Bring Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2 To Europe
What's the point of localising this when the enhanced 3DS version Break Code is coming soon?
Re: 3DS Has The Potential To Find You A Partner
Whether it's a slow news day or not, it's seriously weird to report on something like this!
Re: Activision's Bobby Kotick Is Disappointed With The Launch Of The Wii U
He's concerned about not enough 6-11 year-olds playing the Wii U because those are the sorts of people who play Call of Duty!
Re: Castlevania Is Stalking Onto The 3DS Virtual Console Soon
This game is so fantastic, it's so well designed and endlessly satisfying when you manage to beat levels! Do it properly guys, don't use save states! I'm able to beat this game on an actual NES and I suck at life so I'm sure you can do it too!

Re: EA: Excited About New Generation Which Is "Yet to Come"
Why should we care what EA think?

I think Brownie Brown was a much nicer name, 1-UP Studio sounds generic as hell! And hey, they've made some great stuff - not mentioned here, they also made Sword of Mana on GBA
Re: Review: Ikachan (3DS eShop)
A short little PC freeware game now being whored out for money with no expansion or extras to speak of. I hate you Nicalis
Re: Nintendo Reveals Specific Dates For Wii U Virtual Console Trial Campaign
A somewhat nice selection, but if the rest are also 50hz in Europe like Balloon FIght, no thanks!
Re: Project X Zone Fighting To a Worldwide Release This Summer
@TysonOfTime @MrWalkieTalkie
Your GIFs are very appropriate, this is extremely awesome news!! I really hope the game sells better over here so the localisers don't regret their decision!
Re: Nintendo of Europe Gives Free Retail Game to 3DS XL Owners
I can't get the banner to appear either - also is it just me or is NoE's website horribly broken at the moment?
Re: Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D - Space Recipe For Disaster
Oh! I'm really glad they're making a sequel to this under-appreciated game~

Re: Review: Code of Princess (3DS)
@edhe Ghostlight or NIS Europe may release it here, they've done that with Atlus games in the past!
Re: Review: Code of Princess (3DS)
I'm with the others - Europe release, please!
