Re: Review: Arkanoid DS (DS)

I wonder how Nervous Brickdown is... It's similar to this, but developed by the people behind Big Bang Mini.

Good to know about this one though.

@Mopsical

Maybe I'm just too easy, I can't say for sure. I know a lot of people were complaining about the new voice-overs, but I didn't find them too bad at all. In fact, my favorite game so far is the Pop Star one, which has lyrics in it.

I should also mention that I wasn't opposed to singing along with the Mona Pizza theme song.

In my head of course.

Re: Review: Chibi-Robo: Park Patrol (DS)

Hmm, I was actually pretty bummed with this game. I loved Chibi-Robo on the Gamecube, but the DS version lacked the exploration/platforming bits that made that game great. It's still a decent DS game though.

Good review though.

Re: Reggie: Wii Games Must Sell a Million to Make a Profit

I too can't see how this is a completely accurate statement. The development costs vary quite a bit between different games. You can't tell me that Petz Monkeyz cost the same in development as Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

I have a feeling this statement was either taken out of context, or just misunderstood.

Re: Review: Battalion Wars 2 (Wii)

Olimar_91

I love the Advance Wars series, so I was considering giving this game a go. The original BW actually began as Advance Wars Under Fire, for those who remember.

There's something about the change to real-time combat that doesn't sit well though. I prefer my warfare to be turn-based. =)

Re: Preview: Rhythm Heaven

The demo is great. Definitely challenging, which is nice.
Can't wait for April 5th. Between this and a new DSi, it should be a pretty good day.

Re: The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

Shadx, it's not all trains, the trailer shows very Phantom Hourglass esque dungeon gameplay.

I'm stocked for this game. I know alot will not welcome changes, but personally I think it's great. Bring it on Nintendo!

Re: Review: Big Bang Mini (DS)

Olimar_91

Good review, but I disagree with your final opinion.

I actually thought the game played just fine, and I was able to be very accurate with my shots unless I didn't try at all. And when things did get too frantic, the new gameplay elements thrown in (like shields, deflectors, or spread shots) all came in handy to make things doable.

But that's just my opinion.
Again, good article.

Re: Review: Family & Friends Party (WiiWare)

Olimar_91

Good review smalls.

It's kind of unfortunate just how many Wiiware titles rank a 5 or below here. There is definitely some cream in the crop... But why should we have to wade through so much bad in order to get to it?

@Bahamut:

I believe LBP is coming to PSP,if I heard correctly.
Anyway, I also do not particularly want a PSP. Like with all platforms, there are a few games on it that I'd want, but nothing worth paying for the platform itself.

I'm not really sure why people keep relating this to Loco Roco either. Just because they both feature round characters? I know it's not as widely known, but it reminds me most of Nifflas' other games like Knytt and Knytt stories. Hopefully it's as good as those two. Can't wait to download this game.

Re: USA WiiWare Update: Evasive Space

Olimar_91

Why is everyone complaining about this? Honestly...
Onslaught just came out in Europe, why should it be assumed that within the next couple days here? Especially since Evasive Space was confirmed for today awhile back.

Between the two, ES is much higher on my list of games I'm interested in.

Re: USA VC Update: Life Force

Olimar_91

Judging by that info Bass, I'd say Commodore 64 games are confirmed in the US...

A little disappointing for a "surprise" if you ask me... Ah well.

Re: First Impressions: Bubble Bobble Plus!

Olimar_91

I love how your impressions keep beginning with a confession of some sort.

Anyway, nice article. I'm looking forward to this one, especially since I held off on Bubble Bobble for NES. I need my Bubble Bobble fix
