Actually the article seems to be misinformed: the videos were all copyright striked but they never received anything from Nintendo to stop the rom hack itself, and it’s been getting regular updates most of this time (with a short break between 2.0 and the previous release)

Is it ok if I print out your post so I can show it to my know-it-all American friends when they tell me I’m eating sushi wrong for dipping rice-first?

It went over my head. What’s the joke?

pulling the.......chrono trigger?

Wow, I’m shocked and impressed. I really only have one conclusion:

Unfortunately, now that Jason has posted something about it, it’s either delayed or canceled, so now you will have to listen to you co-worker flip out about THAT for months.

I don’t see people talking about this trilogy and what makes them special. All three games: Triple Deluxe, Planet Robobot and now Star Allies all have a structure that allows for hidden bosses and new content to be discovered. The main campaign is, I think, suppose to be easy. Once competed you have the time attack…

Yeah, the game goes by briskly. Levels are very simple, even for Kirby standards and few of them have compelling conceits. It’s a very basic game. To be fair, Triple Deluxe was more basic than Planet Robobot, so we do have recent precedent for them making a better sequel once they have a good engine running on the new…

With RotTR the story didn’t seem as well developed. There were a lot of parts that just felt forced. To be honest I had more fun doing the side missions than the main campaign. Yeah the controls in RotTR were better than the first and the game was far more streamlined. Oh also hunting didn’t feel as good in this one…

My reason for that is the feeling and athmosphere you got playing the first one. It felt dark, mystical and full of secrets and stories. The Oni were perfectly included into the lore and the world. It felt epic and authentic at the same time.

Kirby games have always been very easy. It’s just Nintendo’s kid franchise.

I spent 80% of my playtime wandering around a snowy field or this psuedo jungle wetland hunting stupid animals instead of progressing. I didn’t like how so much of the game was just two spots.

I think the main consensus is that the story wasn’t as good as the first, which I tend to agree with. The tombs and gameplay in the second are so much better though. I think they are both great but give a slight edge to the second.

I kind of agree, but the wackiness in some of the quests really helped it feel like more than a retread. Baba Yaga, in particular!

Because it was just more of the same. I nearly beat the first one in one sitting I was so drawn in. The second one started out strong, but it was just more and more of the same. instead of fetch quests in the jungle, now its fetch quests in the snow, then the mountains... Took me a year of slogging through it to beat…

I feel personally attacked

Super Smash Bros. Fi..

Wait. Rather than spend 3o seconds downloading a SNES emulator and ROM of the original game; these guys will spend significant man hours un-fucking-up a re-release to bring it closer to the already and easily available ROM?

I get why it doesn’t play well for people, but “awful” and “disaster” are both way too extreme for the level of this problem from where I’m standing. “Serviceable but predictably disappointing” is how I see it.
