I love playing diving games and nitpicking all the stuff they got wrong.. although to be fair this game never claims to be a diving simulation.. so they'll get away with it...
agreed, i felt the DSi needed some sort of arena twinstick shooter, so i am VERY happy with this game... just wish the omens had a real purpose beyond making some text form a cooler sounding word... thats about my only complaint
I think this game fits better on DSIware.. i wouldnt have been happy with it on Wii, but as a DSI game its incredible (and controls work wonderfully, just touch the direction you wish to shoot in, and move with dpad)
looking forward to this game for sure... the first was incredible and all it needed was pointer controls for true perfection (well.. perhaps a more sensible story... but as long as i get to shoot stuff )
I dont like the sound of already having morph/charge and whatever else at the beginning, but lets be honest.. samus cant keep loosing them EVERY TIME...
oh yeah, i forgot about excitebots.. still want that game but by the time we euros get it (if ever) the online might be dead as Americans are already bored of it.
I think translation has something to do with it, but i doubt it adds that much time to it.
@Donatello I THINK it's because you have 100% freedom to do whatever you want with the sword, which would result in the hands not knowing how to react as it would require alot of advanced animation.
I just realized.. this is Wii sports sword-showdown.... but still looks awesome.
Loved it on PC when i had the demo.. if done right, i'll buy it. hope its not just a lazy port tho.. but Reef entertainment did get rogue trooper right.. so i have decent hopes
I beleive that Call of Duty Modern Warfare Reflex was a landmark in Wii history, as it proved that next gen games CAN be done right on the wii, even tho it came late, it still came, thus proving that multiplatform games belong on wii aswell. And i bleive UbiSoft has recognized this and hopefully many more will follow
this is one of those games that belongs as a flash game. dsiware maybe because as everyone mentioned, you could play it during a commute. But it just isnt the kind of game you will sit on the sofa to play.
yeah i must say i agree with suffgamer for the most part.. i also tend to preorder ds games and pirate them the second they are out in US so i dont have to wait for the much belated EU release.. thats a bit shady i know... but I do buy the game in the end
I'm with MarkusA on this one, I am also an indie developer, havent touched consoles and handhelds but I have attempted to legally get a dev kit for nintendo and they are downright draconian on the requirements.. I'm really curious at how 2dboy got one as they are not a multi million dollar company, but just 2 dudes coding in a cafe... but i cant ask them because of the NDA... go figure...
god the game.. its gameplay reminds me very much of vib ribbon, only with one button and no custom music... but yeah, its randomness had me laghing out loud
"Sadly, the Phantom’s path-finding isn’t as smart as you’d hope, causing it to regularly blunder into quicksand when there’s a perfectly good bridge, stumble into walls and generally act with very little intelligence."
Thats not a bug, its a FEATURE! what do you expect? it's being driven by a woman!!
beleive it or not theres a still a following for this game today, some fan forum where alot of people challenge eachother for online matches using emulatiors net play. Theres some incredible matches on youtube (just look for Rock and roll racing online)

Re: Review: Dracula: Undead Awakening (DSiWare)

Re: Triple Shot Sports Hits The WiiWare Bullseye
arent iphone games generally better suited for the DS.. being handheld touchscreen to handheld touchscreen?

Re: Review: Phantasy Star Ø (DS)

@Ren

Re: GhostSlayer Trailer Appears to Spook You

Re: Dead Space Extracted From Wii?
ah, a sad state gaming is, when a great game like this wont sell, until they re-release an identical but shinier version of it.
