Took me a while to remember who Q-Games were, then I twigged... Star Fox Command. Anyway, mad visuals on this, really loving the look of it.

Looks like the quirky stuff is starting to appear now too, which means the time for me to pick up a PS4 is getting closer. Had something like Tokyo Jungle 2 or DoA 6 been shown, I'd get one right away!

Still haven't really finished the 1st one yet. Is LBP3 backwards compatible with creations from the other games? Seem to recall hearing that it is, but not sure.

Indeed. It seems like most WRPGs try to be overly serious and realistic, which is definitely not the kind of vibe I'm looking for in game of lengthy playtime. I haven't no, cheers for the recommendation. : peace:

Having been absolutely hooked on this since the moment I started playing, I've now finished the story... what a game. Wasn't really a fan of the genre until fairly recently, but this has easily become my favourite RPG, without shadow of a doubt my favourite PS3 game, and quite possibly one of my favourite games of all-time! Every aspect of Ni No Kuni is pretty much prefect. The characters, story, animation, artwork, SFX, music, gameplay (yeah, even the battle system ), locations, humour, pacing, progression... it's a masterpiece. Seriously think I'm gonna have to go and buy a physical copy of the game now though, as having paid only 4 quid for the download version I feel like a bloody thief! 50 hours of pure entertainment, and there's still quite a bit left to do by the looks of things. I'd have happily purchased this game solely for the Crypt Casino. Ni No Kuni also highlights this: Admittedly I've not played that many RPGs, especially Western ones, but if there is a WRPG out there that can entertain me as much as this, then I'd sure as hell love to see it. I actually got Skyrim recently (also for a ridiculous price, like 2 quid) but I've only played it for around 10 hours and just don't feel like going back to it. I am however really looking forward to playing Fantasy Life on 3DS in just over a months time, in fact, I'm looking forward to it even more now after Ni No Kuni.

I loved that show. Mr. Shake-Hands Man was genius. Why is TV so poo now?

Do it! Even your favourite reviewers recommend it. Did you 100% it?I'm already having nightmares about trying to collect all of the scaredy cats.

Hehehe! I love these little prediction battles you two have. Smash for Wii U in 2014?: Serebii says yay, Dcubed says nay. ND this week?: Serebii says yay, Dcubed says nay. Anything else you're disagreeing on? We could start placing bets.

The sound design in Scram Kitty is amazing! Loving the laser/enemy SFX "pew pew mew mew" the lo-fi digitized voice when taking damage, and the music... The music is just superb. Perhaps I should've waited until the update arrived to start playing this. Nah, I'm actually enjoying the difficulty level that the current version has to offer. I imagine quite a few GamePads have been destroyed while playing this game though... those scaredy cats. Hero-of-Time, I know you weren't planning to play it right away, but did you still download this?

Downloaded this today. Only played the first few stages but I'm liking it so far. :awesome: The gameplay is kind of weird at first. I reckon the character movement is definitely going to take me a while to master, but already noticed an improvement from when I started playing. Making effective use of the double jump/gravity mechanic can be really satisfying! Already found the game to be quite challenging too, even on the early stages! So yeah, glad I got this in the end. Anyone that's interested in it but yet to download should do so now while it's half price! : peace:

I thought you'd enjoy that kind of thing, being a fan of Dark Souls.

I spotted you were playing a JPN title earlier on when I was starting up Ni No Kuni. Anyway, cheers for the info. : peace:

Updated the drought indicator on the first post. Check out what Reggie gets up to when there aren't any video games available.

I definitely wouldn't mind another Super Princess Peach game, first one was great. Wonder how well it sold though... Anyway, here's a Peachy pic: You must have JavaScript enabled on your device to view Miiverse posts that have been embedded in a website. View post in Miiverse : peace:

The GamePad could definitely be better. Here's my vision of an improved GamePad (in case anyone missed it the first time): Matte finish! No more fingerprints. Side by side with the fat GamePad (screen size is identical on both): No battery indicator either, would be built into the Home button: :awesome:

Whatever you say, amigo.

It really is insane when you think about it. Nintendo game save files were actually more functional and secure two generations ago!: Mental.

Probably no 3D OutRun for us this year then...

Awesome! Good luck man. : peace:

While I get where you're coming from, I do also think there are a few examples where that might not necessarily be the case. I mean although something like Fruit Ninja would definitely feel better if played with a stylus, simultaneous swipes would no longer be possible which is an integral part of the gameplay. Better examples would be Smash Hit and School Idol Festival. Those games use multi-touch in way that I don't think could transition to a traditional control scheme. Not sure if you've played either of those, but in Smash Hit: you can shoot up to 4 balls simultaneously wherever you touch the screen. This becomes a key part of the gameplay too, as very often targets will be split, and the on-rails nature of the game requires you to shoot multiple targets all at the same time. And in School Idol Festival: there are 9 circles on screen that you need to tap in time with the music. Standard rhythm game stuff at first, but higher difficulty levels see you needing to hit 2 at once plus some that need to be held down for a certain duration. The game then mixes all of these input styles together, so you'll sometimes need to be holding down 1 while tapping multiple other circles! The pace the game runs at would make it impossible with any traditional controller. But having said that... some nutter made this: and while I bet playing the game with that would be nice, it is somewhat OTT. I'd be interested to see if you think there's any way those particular games could work better on a different platform though, other than building custom controllers of course. : peace:

Mine wasn't. Voted for the one with the Mustard & Ketchup chefs. Anyone else think the whole competition process is a bit cumbersome? It's nice how they've made it fit in with the rest of the game (having Chibi vote from an exhibition room) but it could do with being streamlined I reckon.

Spotted this on NeoGaf (nothing to do with Wii U, not like that's anything new for this thread anyway ) it's a livestream of a fish playing Pokémon Red: http://www.twitch.tv/fishplayspokemon

I hope so. And with Akira Fujiwara composing again. Dat soundtrack...
