@Sisilly_G when I first completed champions road, I got a friend to man some other controllers so it would be complete for all characters. We ran out of time and I had to do the whole thing again. I got to the end again after a few tries and dropped in more characters. I thankfully beat it with Mario and later Rosalina. Her spin was really helpful for those flip blocks.
I remember having such a hard time with the perfect run at the end of galaxy 2 as a kid, I wouldn't be able to complete it years later. Galaxy 2 is still one of my favorite games by far, it has its fair share of difficult levels.
Was I only person confused when early videos and reactions talked about The Talking Flower, as if there was only one talking flower character in the game, not a talking flower group
Could we get an atricle of the possibilities, the good and the bad. at this point different forms of media are getting monopolized by giants. But if there is any way for someone to paint a clear picture that would be great.
I'm excited. I'm curious how they'll make the other characters viable since Aang bends all 4 elements. If benders of one type will have expanded abilities, also if sokka and other non benders will have different weapons or skills
I noticed that the Idle animation for Mario is similar to the 'New' games in the way he moves his arms.
Other than that, these character designs seem to pull a lot from the original 2d art for the series with more vibrant colors, shading, and personality. If Mario looks this fun, I would like to see comparisons for the other playable characters
I'm hyped for all the playable characters: Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy, Toad, and Yoshi! It's funny how you can still ride Yoshi even if he's another playable character. It's a nice in between.
I wonder, since Yoshi has his flutter jump, if other characters have unique abilities as well or no. Keep in mind this is almost the same cast as Super Mario Run, minus Toadette.
I'm glad Daisy is no longer a spinoff game character. We can always use more spinoff characters in the mainline games. Makes me hope do more, like wario, waluigi, Toadette and more. Hopefully there are more surprises about this game as the summer goes on.
This a great 3DS game. I know many will throw it under the bus for the mission structure, but I still really enjoy it. All the clever puzzles and set ups are so good here, hopefully closer to launch we get to see it, and hopefully it looks more like Luigi's mansion 3 graphics wise than the original.
I got the champion's Ballad, some amiibo gear, and then ganon, which no doubt will be cake walk with a fully upgrade hero of the wild set and full master sword. Korok seeds, shrines, and side quests all done.
Zelda dungeon's map was probably the best tool for all the Korok Seeds
@JohnnyMind Thanks for that. I've been keeping tight speculation on the tour side of things. The hope would be we get all those tracks but we'll see. Some tracks got confirmed for DLC before they got formally added to Tour
One other hope I have after good characters, if Nintendo decides to do more Mario Kart content, I would love to see the retro Karts make a comeback as they have in Tour. Wild Wing, Sprinter, Egg 1, Turbo Yoshi, and many others would be fun to use again
It seems they're porting over basically all the greats from the Wii era, I wouldn't be surprised to see koopa cape, toad's factory, or rainbow road make their debut.
Of all the fun tracks from ds to pick, why Mario circuit? Luigi's Mansion, Yoshi Falls, Airship Fortess , delfino square would be much more unique and memorable additions.
Please let us see more Double Dash. Daisy Cruiser, Dino Dino Jungle and others. I wish we would see Mushroom city, but at this point with the tour tracks, it would be just another city track.
I'm surprised there hasn't been another Bowser's castle. Seems like a shoe in, especially since we got another rainbow road
Diddy Kong and Petey Feel essential since they were Double Dash Characters
Funky Kong is well beloved to warrant a return from his wii days
Honey Queen, Wiggler, R.O.B. all would be fun returners even if they're a bit obscure From Tour: King Bob-omb, Kamek, Dixie Kong, Monty Mole, Pauline
The problem with most characters is making them and their animations work for karts AND Bikes and ATVs.
I would hope to see more pallet swap options in the future, just as we have for Yoshi and Shy Guy. Different colored toads, different color power ups for mario and gang, or more of the delicious mii costumes.
I would love to see Nintendo go all in and everyone to loose their minds when they do one cup of four different rainbow roads (3DS, Wii, NGC, DS or GBA)
@Shift Saves me from looking like a lunatic at Target trying to get toad. This line is a big step up from the last one, with more different and interactive characters instead of just enemies you jump on. The penguin from the last series was good.
I think they should have committed more to the ancient style, or just made a new region that's wild and untamed. The professor still looks like a professor, and that throws me off. Definitely seems to pull a lot from monster hunter
They're going to have to drop something good since they've held back on news since before March I am a minority, if they give us star fox zero with FIXED controls and new content, I'm sold
I'm going to loose my mind. Hoping for some info on Zelda Anniversary, BotW Sequel, Mayonetta 2, and Metroid Prime 4, maybe a smash fighter. I would hope we also get some more mario love before his anniversary is officially over, maybe new maps for luigi's mansion, obviously stuff for new pokemon snap and hopefully gen 4 remakes.
WAIT, it would make a lot of sense if they announce the coming of N63 and Gamecube since they're taking mario 3d all stars off shelves soon.
I'm telling you, they need to remake more than just link's awakening. Notice also how there is no 3d or HD in the title. I hope it's a bundle of the older games. Oracle Games, LTTP, and the NES Zelda would help make it a full package worth the money
there is no title right now to go with it, like hd or 3d. do you think it could be a package of the older games. awakening is a small game. I could see seasons, ages getting put into a package or link to the past since it's all the same incarnation of link
I haven't read of video game books but my favorite has to be Ready Player One, its got a lot of good video games and references as well as to the 80's and Spielberg movies like Star Wars and Back to the Future. Also, got a good blend of action and romance while not feeling lopsided. Good enough to be made into a film. I would agree also I like hyrule historia if only for the manga in the back of the book. looking forward to the encyclopedia to close out the trilogy of dark horse zelda books.

Re: Talking Point: Which Old Track Do You Wish Had Made It Into Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?
I sense bias based on the ones the writers wanted in this poll.
I personally wanted more Luigi Representation because, surprisingly, there is no track to his name in MK8 Deluxe.

Luigi all the way. Such a good series

9-7 frozen piranha plants was also a pain to complete in New Super Mario Bros Wii. Good challenge for the end game

Re: Talking Point: Which Is Your Favourite 3DS Theme?
any of the Zelda Themes are good, particularly the Link between worlds, with the different worlds on the top and bottom screen.
Also the Mario Hanafuda, that one's amazing
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass Wave 4 Launches Next Week
I just want some more Luigi representation. Like hitting my friends in first place when I'm in last on Luigi's Circuit from Double Dash.
RIP any chance of seeing Wuhu Loop or Maka Wuhu from 3DS.
Can we get some likes for R.O.B.? I wanna see him ride a bike (Lol)
Watch them throw in figure 8 circuit from DS. Now we have the three most bland courses from DS in our paid DLC. Yahoo
