STOOPIDDITTIES Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 My mom used to make me and my bro homemade playdough when we were kids. Some DS PAL/UK games manuals have this smell when new. I always give them a sniff and if they don't smell like this I'm disappointed. Mr_Master_X2 gets my vote for the Video Game Manual Reader of the Year award.

Goron_3 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I'm with you on that - my Baten Kaitos Origins manual has got me through some pretty tough times. When Wind Waker came out I used to take the guide to the loo with me. Great reading material. Screenshots look brilliant, can't wait for this game. Probs the only game I'll get this year other than Zelda, just know it's gonna be fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazzybee Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Interestingly they only talk about PS3 and 360...more interestingly they talk about SHaun White being the first game... are they releasing another one on those platforms? I thought it did pretty badly and sold awesomely on the WIi?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostOverThere Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Oh noes, sorry guys! I'll make sure to put things in spoiler tags in the future. I guess that also applies to things like Rosalina being a playable character too, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronnie Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Thanks for the links. Those two new videos are awesome, a great selection of vibrant colourful locations and levels. Some of the galaxies look stunning, most do actually. But I HATE that orange luma as part of the logo. Looks totally off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcj metroid Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 halfway point flags!? well.. they are certainly really trying to find a balance between the 2d and 3d games aren't they. First no hub world and now this.. Can't decide whether this is good or not.. does mean the exploration side is kinda dead. but .. A different style of game cant be bad either.. this is certainly interesting By the way before anyone says it I really think the super guide is one of the more genius inventions of nintendo..

There is a hub world though. It's the big mario head and it grows as you get further in the game. Its just instead of going to many different rooms to get to new levels, you follow it in navigation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Once upon a time I would agree, back in the NES/Megadrive era. Actually even the N64/Playstation era. But now manuals are nothing more than an extended version of the already obvious things they drill into you nine times during the tutorial (which you didn't even want to take part in anyway).

dwarf Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 It looks good. Cloud Mario is a crap idea though, even if it looks pretty cool. I was displeased with the lack of Mario 64-like speed shell surfing on the water though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I know we've discussed this before, but to bring it up again.... We're going from the cool rotating/zooming 3D solar system view in Galaxy 1 to 2D maps here zzzzzzzzzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 GAME reduced my pre-order price down to £29.99, then shot it back to £34.99. But as GAME do the cheap price promise thing, i won't be paying more than £29.99. Bargain me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
