@kdognumba: There is no online multiplayer for Rayman on any system. And the single player is fantastic enough on its own. It would be kind of hard for local multiplayer to work too.
Surprised the article didn't mention anything about tanuki using their giant balls to attack things. Ever see Pom Poko? Great movie, stars tanukis too.
It's actually tempting to go and get it now, since having those games wherever would be nice..... but then again I'm cheap and can play them all on my computer xD
Hey guys, it looks like it's staying for a while. The guys over at Gaijin Games say:
"Be sure to rate the demo via the Nintendo Channel’s rating system though, because games that score higher than Bronze will get to keep their demos longer! Otherwise, this sucker’s gone in 4 weeks!"
I understand not wanting to spoil the story, but mentioning that there is one for newcomers would be nice. People might think that this is just some retro game with a story as deep as a platforming Mario game.
(no offense to Mario, but story telling isn't his strong point)
If this gets good reviews, I'm totally picking it up with Bit. Trip Fate (or Fluidity)
Wait a second, @Omega, how can you say the graphics don't have the same 'quality' as Lostwinds, or Jett Rocket. I liked those art styles, but Robox has a much more unique style. Jett Rocket was about as bland as you could get, despite being 'techinically' appealing graphics.
(and I hope it's difficult, those two were on the easy side, and I kinda want something that can compare to the Bit. Trips.)
@Popyman No, the game doesn't have a story, but all the things that you have to do, the things you see, and the sound effects just remind me of the weirdness of Earthbound.
Though I did make my own story for it. The guy wakes up in a strange world, and just wants to get back home. Simple, but it works.
And I should point out that the game feels more like an Adventure/Platformer since you can turn it however you want. But once you get the 90 degree retro mode, it feels more like a Puzzle/Platformer, since that's how the game was designed.
Definitely agree with the score. Just finished Journey mode, and am playing through limited rotation mode. But I'm surprised you didn't mention the game's oddball nature, and its' wacky sense of humour. It's like, Earthbound weird, or Mother 3 on Tanetane Island weird.

Re: Rayman Origins 3DS Has No Multiplayer
So the multiplayer in NSMBWii worked and was awesome. Played it twice, by myself, and with friends.
But DKCR, KEY, and Rayman Origins, the multiplayer made the game worse. I dunno, just didn't work for me. FlAIL multiplayer was awesome though xD

Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life Staff Awards 2011
Flux didn't win best WiiWare? Wow.
I would've gave you guys extreme mad props for giving Bit. Trip Complete the Game of the Year award. It's what it deserves.
Re: Game of the Year: You Decide!
Bit Trip Complete. Best game of this generation.
Re: Feature: The Best Games on GameCube and Wii

Re: Feature: A Peek Behind the BIT.TRIP Curtain
Teleporters in CORE? Well.
That last video totally blew my mind too, gosh I love this series. Thanks for the write up!
Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword Video is a Real Treasure
Woah, anyone else get a slight Mario Galaxy vibe?
Like, an open world Mario Galaxy with a Wind Waker overworld and the sky instead of the sea. SO EXCITE.
Re: Review: BIT.TRIP COMPLETE (Wii)
I'm actually surprised it's not a 10. No big deal, but I just figured it would, considering it's probably the best Wii game available.
Re: Talking Point: What Was the Best Super NES Game Ever?
Earthbound, duh.

Re: Review: Roller Angels (DSiWare)
So how many worlds of awesomeness are there? One and two are a bit boring, three and how many more are crazy fun?
And wouldn't you not want Patti if there are a high density of sprayable signs? Since you'll have to keep refilling all the time D:

Re: Nintendo Download: 16th June 2011 (North America)
OMG. DK 94 is one of my favorite Mario platformers EVER. Seriously everyone should check it out. It's SO good.
Re: Gaijin Games Details New Content in BIT.TRIP COMPLETE
Wow. I have all six, and I think i'll be getting COMPLETE if it's like $40 or something. The extras are VERY tempting.
Re: Pachter: Wii U is Too Late, 'Dumbest Name Ever'
Releasing it two years ago would've been awful. Though I do agree the name is probably one of the worst names they could have chosen.
Re: Aya and the Cubes of Light Speeds Towards Launch
Looks like some sections of Mario Galaxy to me too.
....except doesn't look too fun.

How's the story in this one Corbie? =P

Retro's the new Rare anyway so it doesn't matter. Can't wait to see what game they work next on =D

Lol at "basically being Beat"
It's like saying SMW is basically SMB. Sure, it IS, kinda, but not really.
Re: Review: Ferryman Puzzle (DSiWare)
I've had one of these in Prof Layton.
That was more than enough.
Re: Nintendo Reveals New Kirby Platformer for Wii in 2011
Ya, don't mention the AWESOME new Rhythm Heaven trailer.
....though the kirby game DOES look cool too....
Re: Xbox Live Arcade's Antipole Flipping to DSiWare
That actually looks good. I might get it.
Re: Interviews: Curve Studios - Fluidity / Hydroventure
Awesome interview guys, very interesting. I loved Fluidity, can't wait to see what else they come up with.
I hope Explodemon comes to Steam, then I can get it >_>

Re: North America Gets In On WiiWare Demo Action Next Week
Gah, I already own all those except ThruSpace :C
Oh well, good to know demos are back.
Re: Fluidity Flows to North America on December 6th
Sweeeet. So glad they priced it at 1200. That's how much I've got left from Bit. Trip Fate. =D
Re: Super Meat Boy May Skip WiiWare and Head to Retail
I would definitely buy it. Though I'm hoping the extras would be kick.
Re: Review: BIT.TRIP FATE (WiiWare)
Pff, the plot is stronger than any Mario title. Any story that has me really feel for the main character has definitely accomplished something.

Re: Review: BIT.TRIP FATE (WiiWare)
Fate is amazing so far. Giga mode makes you feel so awesome.
But it bugs me how you don't talk about the story in the review :C
Re: Review: Robox (WiiWare)
@Reviewer: Just a question, have you ever played Knytt/Knytt Stories? If so, what did you think of those titles?
Re: Nicalis Wants You to Know Cave Story DSiWare Music is Perfect
Awesome! Now I have an excuse to replay the game when the update comes =D
Re: First Impressions: Lost in Shadow
Can't wait to pay full price for this in January. Looks great!
Re: New Robox Trailer as Game Launches this Friday

Wait a second, @Omega, how can you say the graphics don't have the same 'quality' as Lostwinds, or Jett Rocket. I liked those art styles, but Robox has a much more unique style. Jett Rocket was about as bland as you could get, despite being 'techinically' appealing graphics.

Re: First Fluidity Video and Screenshots Released
Holy crap, this looks awesome. I can't wait to get this ASAP.
Re: Movemodo is Officially Open for Business!
I didn't think you guys were serious. How does a CONTROLLER deserve its' own site? Can't wait to see VitalitySensorToid.

I'd buy this if there wasn't a billion other games I still want. Oh well, I might get it eventually.

Alright. NOW DO LUIGI.

Re: Get the Lowdown on And Yet It Moves with this Series of Videos
I was going to save mah points for Bit. Trip Fate, but if this is lengthy, I'll have to get it.
