Holy crap this game is slick on 3DS! Really amazed by how good the 3DS version looks and more importantly, how well it plays. I always thought smash attacks would be weird with the Circle Pad, but it's actually alright. (pretty sure this game will see me breaking my 3DS at some point though ) Only thing that's messing me up control-wise at the moment is how you can only grab with the L Button, and I always use Z on the GCN pad, so would've preferred to use the R Button on 3DS. Got the nintendog assist trophy earlier, sooooooo good in 3D. I'm officially on board the hype train for Smash 3DS now, bring it on!

Please be real. Please be real. Please be real. Please be real. Please be real. Please be real. Please be real... And if so, bye-bye 3DS version pre-order.

Mental.At least 2015 should see fewer gaps in the release schedule. *crosses fingers*

Nice feeling, ain't it? Gonna be weird putting a disc in the Wii U again, can't even remember the last time I did that. Actually, it was probably MK8 back in May! But since then I've been using the eShop version that I got courtesy of the Nintendo UK store. :awesome: So yeah, over 3 months ago... God damn. Anyway, roll on Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2 and Super Smash Bros.!

That's the plan.

In that case...

Don't think I ever registered my XL (it's in my pile of Club Nintendo PIN codes ) but I take it this has to be a 3DS system bought recently to qualify.

Aww yeah. :awesome: Surprisingly I'm not super hyped for Smash Bros. this time around (part of the reason I'm checking out the spoilers) but seeing stuff like that is definitely helping. Not been able to keep up with all of the info as far as characters are concerned though. I remember there was a rumour going around that a Rhythm Tengoku character was playable in this, anyone know if that turned out to be true or not?

I'd say Wonderful 101 is the closest thing. Anyone that doesn't enjoy the gameplay in that, probably won't enjoy Bayonetta 1/2.

*cough* Nice box art.

Could've fooled me.

Oh yeah. Damn my bad memory. Nooooooooo!!!! Compression really kills the PQ of the GamePad, on reds especially. Kirby's gonna have fuzzy feet.

Do you have to tap directly on Kirby to dash in Canvas Curse? (can't remember it's been so long ) Surely taping anywhere on screen should work, especially for the Wii U version.

Yeah, this game looks absolutely incredible, so it'll be a real shame if it has to be played exclusively on the GamePad screen. Is it known if the TV will also display the game, or will it be a HUD/map like the DS one? I'm thinking/hoping it'd be possible to play this using the stylus but while looking at the TV (with some practice ) to properly appreciate the visuals.

60fps version of the new trailer can be found here: http://www.gamersyde.com/hqstream_bayonetta_2_launch_trailer-32909_en.html Short clip: :awesome:

PEGI are that strict on profanity? Even films rated 12 can include the word "fuck". Indeed. Nah, I played Bayonetta again recently so I'm jumping straight into Bayonetta 2. Will definitely check out the Wii U port of Bayonetta afterwards though. :awesome:

It's interesting because from what I've seen of Bayonetta 2 (which is quite a lot now) they haven't toned it down at all. Also, the original Bayonetta was rated 15 by the BBFC (my PS3 copy is anyway) not sure why PEGI see it as an 18. The only thing I can think of is some of the torture attacks, especially the one against...

Wow. Can't wait for October 24th!

Stupidly, yeah. I have no willpower.

I don't reckon anything to do with amiibo will be a one time scan, they'll want everyone to buy their own, rather than just share them around to unlock the content.

Yeah, I know they're going to show waaaay too much (like they did with SM3DW and MK8) but I know I'm gonna have to watch it anyway. Perhaps I'll try to just check out the beginning (see if Kamiya is hosting, and get his first mention of the release date ) and then stop watching.

So America has a finalised release date and a Nintendo Direct for Bayonetta 2, meanwhile Europe has... neither of those things. What in the actual hell? Anyway, not sure if I want to watch it as it's probably going to be like the last few directs, i.e. a spoiler fest. I'll no doubt end up watching it regardless, due to my severe lack of willpower.

Awesome!! If I don't already have a PS4 by then, this'll almost certainly be the game to make me buy one.

Sweeeeeeet! Was there no footage/info at all though?
