That's too bad man, Kororinpa is definitely an excellent rental game. I'm still playing this occasionally though, (about 93% complete now I think) just got a few more stages to do on mirror mode, basically all the space stages. The final stage is amazing, took me like 15 minutes to finish it the first time and even now my best time is around 6 minutes! And that's with loads of falling off , has anyone managed to do that stage without falling once? Oh - and that's without using the Panda ball. :wink:

Yep, same for me. I'm still annoyed at the lack of release dates for first party games. Apart from Eledees none of the 3rd party stuff appeals to me.

Out of those 3 I'd go for Eledees.

Result! That was my main complaint with the trial version, that and the fact it wasn’t full screen. But by the looks of those new pics and vids that has been sorted out too. :awesome:

The deal is in GAME and it's 2000 Wii Points for £7.99 when bought with anything else in store. (well, I think it can be anything, not 100% sure though) Anyway, I got some the other day when I picked up Mario Slam Basketball. I downloaded Kid Icarus yesterday. Man that game is as cruel as ever! Still great fun too.

Same here, still have it in fact: Was such a great feeling when you finally managed to complete it, after so much frustration!

I'm seriously considering them for my next purchase now, I remember someone on here saying that they send stuff out early every time. Shame about Gameplay though, there's really no incentive to use them anymore as you can get games cheaper and on release day from loads of places. They should at least lower their prices now if they plan to carry on working this way.

Cheers. That's a Thursday though, so I'll put it down as the 27th and add the old [?] too.

Classic! Anyone that's not played it before should watch this vid: It'll either put you right off, or make you want it even more!

So they've not sent it out then? Did anyone get this (or any new release for that matter) today from Gameplay? Or have they really changed for the worse.

Now there's a contrast for ya! Reminds me of when I was playing through Eternal Darkness at the same time as Animal Crossing. Good times. Can't say I've ever really got into Harvest Moon, only played the SNES version a little bit though.

That guy was seriously annoying! Mind you it got even worse in F-Zero Climax, "There's another racer on your tail!" and "You're about to lose the lead!" ARRGGGHHHH! I've not really played much single player Excite Truck since S-Ranking it a while back, just a few VS games here and there. It's definitely one for the collection though.

Until they release a Mii Dating channel.

Yeah, very cool box art. But every time I see that butterfly thing I'm somehow reminded of the Decepticon logo from Transformers!

Hmm... If this is for real I'm thinking / hoping it'll be:

Initially this seems to play very similar to SMB, but it's actually got much more depth to the gameplay than the first few stages suggest, and the game requires you to do a lot more motion with the Wii Remote. For example in SMB you tilt the control 45 degrees in any direction and the table will be at its maximum tilt, but in kororinpa you can basically keep going and the table will follow suite, so you have complete control of the table. A lot of stages see you having to tilt by 90 degrees and continue to play with the Wii Remote on its side, the later stages then apply that to the forward and backward motions too so you have the Wii Remote pointing at the floor, it can get pretty tricky! As for the camera well I've only noticed a few issues with it where sometimes your view gets obscured and it tries to make a very slight movement to let you see where you're going, but most of the time any object that gets in the way will just turn transparent, so it's all good. I had the joy of playing that stage last night, certainly won't be an easy one to get gold on that's for sure! Anyway, my file is at 51% right now. I've unlocked the...

I got Kororinpa this morning, £10 after trading in Red Steel (which I'm very glad to see the back of). Had a feeling this game would be my cup of tea, and it wasn't wrong. I'm really enjoying it! Love everything about it so far, the controls are spot on, the graphics (although pretty basic) are very nice and it has a great style to it, the various balls are hilarious (the cat one had me in stitches every time it hits the floor too hard and does a really high pitch meow!) And the music is awesome, I'm up to the city stages and the Latin style tracks on those are amazing, the retro ones are cool too. The 16:9 / massive borders thing was weird though, it's as if Hudson didn't know the correct aspect ratio for widescreen or something. Anyway as pointed out before, setting it to 4:3 sorts that one out. Looking forward to trying out the VS mode later on. I gather it's a very short game, but is anyone that got it in February still playing? Looks like it has potential replay value in going for high scores / best times.

Yeah, I've watched the new trailer quite a few times now and to me it's almost as if they've re-invented the platform genre once again! Obviously not as much of a leap as what they did with Mario 64 at the time, but it just seems amazing to be able to move so freely around all of these spherical environments and explore. I love the idea that you can approach the edge of an area and just keep going and discover loads of new stuff on the opposite side, (no more invisible walls ) I can't wait to see just how complex the environments become, the level design is going to be crazy! I get the impression that this game must've been a right pain in the arse to program though, the fact that Mario moves so seamlessly around all of the different structures is pretty impressive I reckon, especially when you consider some developers still have difficulty making characters move properly on flat surfaces or up stairs and stuff. But this just looks so damn slick. I really hope we don't have to wait until December for this game! But I'm guessing that'll probably be the case.

I usually log in every day for the stars too, not much else though. Man that site is in need of a serious overhaul! I hope when they do eventually revamp the site we get something a little bit easier on the eyes too, they should take a few tips from the Nintendo of Japan website: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/

Gotta say I loved my intro Anyway, cheers everyone! : peace:

Every online retailer I've looked at has it down for April, but if anyone knows of a different date please post or PM me the source so I can check it out.

OK I sorted out the list a bit, moved Trauma Centre and Eledees out of the TBD section too despite neither of them having solid release dates yet, but surely they've got to be out soon! I still don't believe how many titles are down for the 30th, looks a right mess. I'd understand if we were going to have so many games every month but it really doesn't look that way at the moment so they should spread them out a bit! Anyway thanks to everyone for the suggestions / info, keep it coming! : peace:

I was pretty surprised when it got to 02:15 and saw a pic I made!

Helpful. OK then, anyone else?

Well it's certainly sounding a lot better after reading that, Cheers. Now if someone could just answer my question about the music (whether or not you can turn it off) I'll be one step closer to reconsidering the game.
