Re: Feature: The Making of Wetrix and Its Route to Nintendo 64

JustinH

I adored this game and I really wish it had found its way to the Virtual Console. It's one of the rare N64 games that I think would have aged very well (but I'll admit I haven't played it in forever as I never did buy myself a copy. PIcked one up as a gift for family though.)

Re: Year in Development: Nyamyam

I really liked the game but they delayed the Wii U release by half a year and priced it at a huge premium over iOS and are disappointed with the sales? Yet another case of awful management sinking a great game, and one that has a natural home on the platform.

Put it on sale and I suspect a lot of people might give it a shot. It's still really expensive for a very short game.

This port is super sloppy and I can't believe the reviewer didn't mention this and gave the game 8/10. You can't post Miiverse screenshots half the time, characters don't appear during some cutscenes, the framerate is truly abysmal... there's just so many basic issues.

The game itself is fun but pretty shallow. That part of the review is spot on.

Re: Review: Meme Run (Wii U eShop)

The fact anyone felt the need to make this and so many people are buying this and posting about it on Miiverse is so very depressing.

I defended Ninja Pig insofar as their feud with Rcmadiax went and I regret that now.

Re: Interview: Curve Studios on the Unique Charm of Thomas Was Alone

I played a little of this on Steam before it was announced for Wii U. I stopped playing it then. I'm not sure whether I want to get back to it on Steam or double dip. It's a fun little puzzle platformer, and the presentation of the story is really neat. The comparison to Portal is strange, but apt.

@Jahir Seriously. I wish Nintendo Life would get on some of these developers about this. All of a sudden indies just are not bothering releasing in Canada, like our money isn't good enough for them.

Re: Review: Ultimate NES Remix (3DS)

JustinH

This review seems fair but if you're not going to get a Wii U (Shame on you!) you definitely should pick this cart up. It's not the definitive way to play NES Remix but you really shouldn't miss out because of that.

Re: Review: Arrow Time U (Wii U eShop)

@Morph XType Plus is an excellent game at a very fair price, and made with the NWF. Nintendo has a Mario and Donkey Kong NWF demo that looks like it could see a proper release on Wii U.

Re: Thomas Was Alone Will Look For Company on Wii U

JustinH

Oh, good call on this. I got it in a Humble Bundle and I actually just started playing it yesterday. I was thinking, here's an indie game that would find fans on Wii U.

The only question is whether or not I should drop this thing now like a hot potato and get back to it on Wii U, or finish it and skip the port.
