umm, hooray? I don't have either system, so I won't be needing the sites, but I'll check them out anyway since you guys have great article writers and editors.
OKAY I'M BACK. Not much is different, but I can still recommend it to my friends who have those systems.
@8 No it didn't, that's just your nostalgia-filter talking. and also, they've said on several occasions there will be NO WATER LEVELS, on account of them slowing the fast pace of the game (in their words, not mine).
Also, I am DEFINITELY sure this game will be fantastic. DKC hasn't let me down in the past, and I know that Retro is an amazing developer, this vids only make me more excited.
Whaat!? But Kiwis are so cute and awesome, they're all becoming extinct. I'm seriously crying right now after reading about their death percentages. I used to be begging my friend to buy Retro Game Challenge because we need the sequel translated, but people NEED to buy this game to help the donations!
Oh yeah, this game is even better now. It's amazing how much love telltale puts into their games, and I'm surprised at the fantastic new Marty voice. AJ's gonna go far, I tell ya.
@MasterGraveHeart I can fully agree whole-heartedly. After all the BS Wii NBA Jam had to suffer, we have every right to be pissed that there's no online play for such a ridiculous reason. Also, as a gamer, I've always respected other's opinions and tried not intrude on someone else's way of life. It's a hobby, and you can join in if you want.
I always laugh when I see in "stand in a big room" picture when a wii game starts up. There's a guy that just waves the remote in a huge circle, hitting everything in his path.
I'll think about it. To be honest, this went from "day one buy" to "I have other things to save up for, and their prices aren't OUTRAGEOUS." Largely due to the 1500 price tag, I am so not paying for that.
Wait a second. Japan, the place that appreciates cuteness and animation more than anyone else, is barely purchasing the game unlike the U.S.? Damn pokemon.
It's official. NO EFFING WAY am I getting this game now. I was BARELY considering it for 1000 points, but seeing how it doesn't do anything new, and all the bosses are just crappy rehashes of old bosses, I'm just gonna get La Mulana and an awesome VC game, thank you.
ugh, NEED DSi...ARGH, NEED MONEY. Wiiware port, wiiware port, wiiware port. If you chant three times, the nintendo fairy will grant your wish. looks around, grasping the air for hope
I put my pre-order down just yesterday, I am SO excited for this one. Ever since me and my buddy bought DKC1&2 for the VC, we've been all about Donkey Kong Country. However, JUST when I beat DKC2, I heard about DKCR and just couldn't contain my excitement. I'm gonna hazard a 9/10 score guess for when it comes out.
2 things: 1. It's going to be 1000 points isn't it? sigh looks like only being 2 dollars away is gonna make me pay for another 10 bucks again. and 2. Why is one of the tags "Sunshine?" I can't FEEL the sunshine. Does it brighten up YOUR day?
I really liked Jett Rocket, except for two little things 1.It's WAY too similar to Super Mario Galaxy. The music, the camera angles, the graphics. This CANNOT be a coincidence. 2. It was way too easy. Me being a collector, I beat this whole game in a quick, 7 hour sitting. Regardless, I hope they make the sequel a little more challenging.
The only thing I find unfair is the slight price change of Import titles. For instance, almost all super nintendo games are 800 points, but Milon's DokiDoki Adventure has to be just 1 dollar more? I was SO CLOSE to buying it, but I settled for Vectorman last time I had points.
finally finished this game yesterday. Overall, I think it was pretty good. Definitely had that Zero Series vibe to it. Although Area-K's lava sections kicked my butt.
This and Super Mario 63 are officially my favorite games on Newgrounds.
I mean, seriously. The level of detail (from the sound effects, music, and the way they control) is so high it's off the charts. A lot of fan-love went into this game, and I really appreciate it.
I haven't beaten it yet, but I love it's originality and awesomeness too much to give up on it. I'm currently stuck on the Trouble Bruin battle on scene 6. any tips, guys?

Re: Cartoon Network Mayhem in Upcoming 3DS "Battle Game"

Re: Telltale's Back to the Future Not Coming to Wii
WHAT!?
Oh man, great now I have to buy this on my extremely slow computer.
Re: Review: BIT.TRIP FATE (WiiWare)
sounds fantastic, and 800 points is always a reasonable price.
Re: Meet the New Voice of Marty McFly

Re: First Impressions: Super Meat Boy
I'm betting on 800 wii points.. I'm willing to stretch to 1000 but no more than that.
Re: Cave Story Update Now Available
Playing it now. Gotta say the biggest improvement is no longer do the exp crystals drown everything else out horribly.
Oh yeah, and the music is EVEN BETTER.
Re: BIT.TRIP FATE Coming October 25th
Still...waiting...for...La...Mulana....
AHHH! BULLET HELL! DO WANT
As long as LM is 1000 points, then I'll be able to buy both, hopefully.

Re: Sega Strikes Poor Sonic Games from Catalogue to "Increase Brand Value"
@sykotek Lol, that had me laughing for a bit.
Hmm, wouldn't that turn these crappy games into collector's items? Oh well, as long as Sonic 06 doesn't exist anymore.
Re: Interviews: Sega - Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1

Re: Nordcurrent Joins the Monster Buster Club on DSiWare
umm, NO THANK YOU.
Shantae just came out, and I think I'd rather... oh wait, I don't have a DSi.
RETAIL THAT GAME IMMEDIATELY.
Re: Capcom's Okamiden Limps to Retail in Japan

Damn pokemon.
Re: See Plenty of New 3DS Games in Motion Right Here

Re: Nintendo Download: 27th September (North America)

Re: Classic Mario DS Games Get Reprints at Toys 'R' Us
YES! Partners in Time is my all-time favorite Mario and Luigi game!
Although I just bought it on ebay for 4 dollars. Too late, T'R'U.
Super Princess Peach looks fun, but $35!? Heels naw.
Re: La-Mulana Tokyo Game Show Trailer
OMG IT'S SYMPHONY OF THE NIGHT.
Still, I'd love to finally play this game, the masochist inside me is burning in joy.
I'd say flaming, but...you know.

Re: Steve Wiebe Reclaims Donkey Kong World Record

Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns
@15
I hope there's a competitive co-op mode like in the originals, but if not, regular co-op (without switching) is very much appreciated
Re: Expect La Mulana to be Really, Really Hard
Still workin on Sacred Grounds in Cave Story, but as long as I have points by the time this comes out, I'll scoop it up.
But it better not be 12 frickin dollars again, cuz then I'm just gonna download the original FOR FREE.

Re: Mega Man 4
someone should probably review this before it comes out.
I haven't played MM4, so I'd love to hear what someone has to say about it.
