Someone said it, this is 2013 2.0, another really slow year, but the weird thing is, it almost doesn't matter because there's a backlog of things to play.
Got it with the Humble Bundle as well, 8/10 is fair, I might be more inclined on a 10 really. It hits plenty of marks perfectly with me, they nailed that Genesis look and sound. I also think the voice acting is really good, none of it has been bad, in fact it's some of the best I've heard from a third party like this in some time. This music is sooo great
Why bother rating this? You're late for one thing and obviously you were going to give it a 9 or a 10 or there would have been a huge long angry string of responses comparing you to 7.5/10 IGN.
@leo13 Back in the N64 days they bought both. Today is a different story and like I said even during this gen and last gen people didn't get into multiple similar games the way they use to. YOU may personally have/will buy both, but it doesn't mean it would make the splash it once did. Personal opinion and taste doesn't mean "they WILL bring us another DK racing"
They want to see your face so they know who everyone is and can save the images into their database for when they need to look you back up for perversion.
119.95 is a weird number in any sense. But you know there will be at least 2 morons who will be like "I DONT CARE. I HAVE THE MONEY AND I WANTED TO PREORDER IT YOU'RE JUST ANGRY CAUSE YOU CANT AFFORD THE 999"
@DrkBndr @leo13 My point was; why was there even a rumor about DK Racing 2? It seems too farfetched and like an obvious fake. Even if you want it, most bigger devs would know better than to try and compete with Mario Kart in this day and age, I doubt Nintendo would want 2 kart style racers at once, especially where they're competing with themselves in this situation. I think last gen proved with Mario Kart Wii, that you can't topple the best in class. Many kart racers tried and failed to make a big hit, even Sonic barely grasped the concept. Also MK8 isn't new but it would still take away from that game's online, would be too similar, or would hurt sales, they do have that MK8 WiiU bundle too. MK8 has water and air options too as did Diddy Kong.
Besides Kirby is probably aimed toward children even though everyone plays the games, making it too in depth would alienate kids who don't have the mind for that kind of stuff yet.
@Vandy I do agree with the Kirby being mysterious part, I think they do that on purpose and it works really well. Changing it would probably ruin the charm and wonderment which is part of the fun. I doubt they'll change it. I'm indifferent about Link, the games were already more in depth but I do remember having more wonderment when things weren't so tied together the way they are now.
@Vandy Well I'm not saying Kirby is bad, it's one of my favorites, but an explanation of some things would be cool. But if not, okay haha Just for curiosity sake I suppose.
This game is on sale and I noticed it has a 4.5/5 star rating in the eShop with over 2300 reviews, so that's awkward and strange this got trashed so hard here. Looks a bit too simple but 2/10 seems harsh with the others...
Is Kirby's universe or "lore" suppose to match up and make sense ever? The whole series is crazy, like why is there suddenly mechs? No explanation lol Why do the other planets we've visited in other Kirby games never reappear or ever get a mention?
There goes the last reason to buy a New 3DS for me. Also why are there suddenly SO many used Xenoblade copies? I've seen at least 1 at each Gamestop, even this one store called World 8, they had one. Suddenly everyone sold theirs? Or did they have a reprint? Was GS hoarding them?
I'm okay that we're getting these, but they've added a lot of things either only Japanese people or weebs would know, and even weebs are like ??? sometimes. But whatever.
Goldeneye 64 discussions sound just like old men complaining and whining about how the olden days were better even if there are things better before or after what they're discussing
@the-madprofessor That's part of the reason why I have doubt as well, not to mention there's been at least one time where Nintendo mentioned the NX is not replacing the 3DS or WiiU, but of course that's usually ignored as well. Mostly because people want to say we don't have all the information yet and like to add their spin on it or say "well maybe not YET but it WILL replace it" okay???? once again no basis lol For about 10 seconds people were touting the QoL to be the WiiU successor, everyone forgot their embarrassing "fact" claims already.
@Project_Dolphin I've said it. People get so angry and just continue on the "the WiiU is dead and it's been years we need a new system" argument. Even though the flaws with that logic are a lengthly one. I can't believe that post got likes, on this very website, where it's more popular to follow a random rumor than what's actually happening. Good on them.
Finally Nintendo is getting these collection games, but I still think of the PS3/360 Genesis Collection, it has a few of these in there and a butt ton more. I guess if you use 3D it's worth it and for convenience of the mobile system.
Looks like a toilet seat or in the 2nd image, like a tool controller for Cooking Mama when you'd sprinkle powered sugar over something with one of those kitchen tools. But that Xbox controller thing someone posted, so basically Nintendo steals from MS every time? Look at the Pro controller, then look at this U controller. Why.
Welcome to Rumorlife where everything is considered even if it's extremely ridiculous and farfetched, until someone else has to confirm it's fake for them. With an added bonus of a forum who takes everything this website says for the truth!
I'm excited for this anyway. I've got most of the Amiibo associated with this as well. It's a nice little extra to have to take advantage of Amiibo for no reason other than having fun.
