A dumbed down version is still a portable version, so this is still a planned purchase for me! A lot of my friends don't have a Wii U and I'm out of the house a lot, so being able to make levels and share them with my friends w/o internet is cool. (still crossing my fingers they add sharing via QR codes)
That, and I like the idea of having a real campaign sort of mode in this game. The 100 Mario Challenge is woefully unbalanced.
@AlexSora89 There is a high chance we might not even get any returning levels, and there's supposedly a whole new character. Classic Sonic is just there because he makes more money and better reviews than if it was just plain Sonic.
@Gridatttack Some might be better than SEGA in some areas, but in overall creativity and general new ideas SEGA is always ahead of them.
Not putting down fangames, Sonic Robo Blast 2 is an excellent example of a good fangame, and I totally recommend playing it... but the majority of them don't have much, er, soul to them.
That game (along with Colors, and Unleashed) actually had really good animation in the pre-rendered opening cutscenes, glad to see Marza working on this.
There's been some really well designed or programmed Sonic fangames, but none of them have creative levels or anything really worthwhile. Including this, apparently.
Kirby Planet Robobot is an excellent game. Amazing soundtrack, awesome new abilities, better gimmick than Super Abilities or Hypernova and it has some surprisingly deep lore.
This game looks fan-frickin-tastic. Especially the graphics! It looks so good, and the character design... great! I'm trying to avoid major spoilers + I have a lot of other things to do, so I haven't seen much other than one of the trailers.
@OptometristLime I dunno about obscure. I have a few friends in real life who are interested in it and most of my friends that aren't still know what it is. It's no indie game.
But yeah, of course this is gonna sell more in Japan.
@DeltaPeng Play the actual game, get a feel for it. I frequent /ywg/ on 4chan and the YW community generally agrees that the demo is not a fair representation of the game.
@Popplio I LOVE the combat. It's so much more fresh and original. And apparently Yo-kai Watch 2 adds new, less intrusive touchscreen minigames and makes the RNG much more fair. Don't give up on Yo-kai Watch yet! Try playing YW2 at least!

Re: Video: Get a Good Look at Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS in This Japanese Showcase
Also, the slowdown only seems to show up on completely ridiculous cases of too-much-stuff-on-the-screen, and even then it's only for the NSMBU style.
Re: Video: Get a Good Look at Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS in This Japanese Showcase
Probably getting this. The medal challenges look really appealing.
And it's portable SMM!
Re: Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS Will Feature amiibo Support
I still don't like the removed features, but just being on the 3DS is a HUGE feature for me.

Re: Review: Twisted Fusion (Wii U eShop)
@StephenYap3 I'm preeeeeety sure Rise of Lyric isn't anywhere near the level of the other two you listed.
Re: Review: Twisted Fusion (Wii U eShop)
So, uh, what's up with the blatant ripoff of Reimu in the screenshots?
I guess it could be a reference, too. /shrug
Re: Official 25 Hour Live Stream of Sonic the Hedgehog Games to Raise Money for Charity
@AlexSora89 It's not a sequel

@Kiyata He's right. Most people that actually use their 3DSes play either first party games or weebcrap. Not stuffed bear simulators. Just saying.
