I'm so ready for HD Animal Crossing! But I'm not ready for New Leaf U, you know, a port of New Leaf with some "Added content." or something. Even though I LOVE Animal Crossing, it needs to become a bit more advanced. I'd like to not hear the same lines of dialogue repeated to me so often, for one... But also, it almost feels like villagers are often an afterthought where as designing your house and collecting is what's more important. But the game is called Animal Crossing, not build-a-house workshop. Let me go... I dunno, play a sport at a local park with my villager, or let me be able to play 2 player NES and SNES games via virtual console with a villager being player 2 (Controlled by AI of course). It probably wouldn't be easy, and Nintendo would never just give virtual console games away in-game anymore, but it would be awesome. At the very least, there should be games that are available on the eShop purchasable in-game and playable in game too.
The Dragon Quest Theatrhythm game didn't have 3D either. Found that out after I imported it, not that it's a big deal, but it is kind of lame because I actually use 3D in all of my games.
@SuperPokefan95 Agreed, some characters like Klonoa and Firebrand (Though I think he was an enemy in the first) would be awesome additions. Though Leon already makes this game better. It would make it GOTY if it wasn't RE6 Leon.
This game is brutal. I too have only been able to beat a couple levels. I consider myself a decent Mega Man player too; I find most of the NES ones pretty easy with the exception of the last levels
...Are you kidding me? Igarashi can't bean serious. This must be a ruse. And by golly it's sure ruffled my feathers more than I thought it would. This would have been the first KS project I backed if it was on Wii U. No 3DS is understandable; it doesn't look like it's going to be a pixel art game, but hand drawn 2D, so the lack of 3DS is disappointing, but understandable. But are they seriously trying to say that the Wii U can't handle A 2D GAME?! Wii ran Muramasa just fine, and that game looks about as good as the concept art (Which, if MN9 is anything to go by, will look a lot better than the final product), plus the Wii was the weakest of the 3 consoles last gen. But now a console stronger than the 360 and PS3 can't handle this 2D game? Man, screw you Igarashi. You've done so much good only to slap me (and many other Nintendo fans) in the face like it's nothing. If this project does eventually get a Wii U stretch goal and it gets funded, I will be extremely pleased, but I'll still stand by what I say here now. Guess I'll just go replay the handheld Metroidvanias again.
My first Kirby game was Nightmare in Dreamland for GBA. Back then, the reason I liked Kirby so much was because his sword power up made him look like Link... Oh, the game was good though.
The Kirby game I enjoyed the most was the Crystal Shards on N64. I love combining powers and trying out different ones. Also, the soundtrack is really nostalgic, and the overall design of the game is really pleasant.
@Ryu_Niiyama I-I don't suppose you'd be willing to give a fellow Nintendo Life operative the same offer, would you? Lol, I've been wanting a Japanese 3DS forever!!
Awesome news by the way! I love Iwadare's work on Grandia and in Smash Bros.
Wow! I voted for a Castlevania character, but honestly, I probably would have voted for Banjo and Kazooie if I saw this earlier. I don't even think the games are THAT great, but they deserve to be in the game for sure.
I'd like a sort of smell-o-vision in games some day in the future. I know it sounds silly, but smells can be really immersive. I imagine a big open field during the rain would be great, but then again I love the smell of rain.
What a bummer. I've been interested in this game since it was first announced... Was that really back in 2011? Maybe 2012, but either way, it's a shame and it makes me sad.
I don't have any Amiibo yet, though there are only a handful I want. Ness, Mega Man, Shulk, Duck Hunt, maybe a few others... So only a few two of the ones I really want are available now.
It sucks that it's so hard to find really any Amiibo. Where I live, I guess Nintendo is either more popular than I thought or there are just some really good scalpers about, because all the stores I've been too have been almost completely wiped out. It's even somewhat hard to find Yoshi, another that I kind of want. Nintendo has done an awful job at supplying enough Amiibo from what it looks like, but there is at least one positive side to it in my eyes. The lack of some Amiibo make them rare, of course, and so it's kind of like old, rare games in the sense that sometimes you strike a bit of gold by finding that rare amiibo in store for the actual price. Like when you find some rare N64 or SNES game at a flea market.
"...armed with only a flashlight," The screenshot, assuming it's from this game, shows otherwise, but if that's true then the game's going to be trash. After playing through Resident Evil Remastered, not having some sort of weapon in a survival horror is just the developers being lazy now.
It's no surprise Nintendo doesn't care about F-Zero when Nintendo fans care more about ANOTHER port of Mario 64 than F-Zero getting any attention at all.
Mega Man and Bass is awesome, but it's by far the hardest Mega Man game I've ever played. I can only beat one or two of the robot masters. For comparison, I think most of the NES Mega Man games are pretty easy, aside from the end stages.
Awesome! Now that Pewdiepie won't play Ninty games, I don't have to worry about any of them skyrocketing in price on ebay because "OMG PEWDS PLAYED IT IT'S SO EPICCC!! XD"
One of my favorite games of all time. Some hardcore whiny fans will complain "omg they will ruin the original masterpiece!!!!!1! DX"
But screw that. A Cave Story sequel (or prequel) would be a dream come true. So long as Daisuke Amaya is heavily involved, how could it not be good? Maybe not AS good as the original, but I imagine it will be hard for many to judge fairly with the nostalgia of the first title since it's pretty old now.
Oh, and I also really want Fragile Dreams. I love that game. It has a lot of problems, but I can't help but love it for what it tried to do (successfully, for the most part). Also, it has what might be my absolute favorite soundtrack of all time.
Oh my gosh, Resident Evil 4 PLEASE!! Can you imagine playing that game with just the glorious gamepad? Since it supports the classic controller, that's possible! Oh I would buy that instantly.
I'd buy it, preferably for Wii U because of the resolution problems mentioned above, and I feel like it would just feel better on Wii U in general. I imagine building stuff would actually be pretty fun with the touchscreen controls...
Ha, I bought this game the first day it came out (I think) because it looked cute and was cheap. Yeah, it's not really interactive, but I like it because it's a bit of a multitasking kind of game. I can "play" this game while playing other games or browsing the internet or something.
I also like the music. I think it has a Mega Man Battle Network vibe to it.
