Grazza Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 £25 for a retail game is a good price It would be if shops were selling it, but it's eShop-only. Even so, it's not too bad.
flameboy Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 It's $29.99 compared to $39.99 been.out for quite some time though
-Dem0- Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 It would be if shops were selling it, but it's eShop-only. Even so, it's not too bad. I can see this game getting a sale at some point so I'll hold off for now. Too many games around the same period.
Dcubed Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 £24.99 would be a good price, £19.99 would be an amazing price, £29.99 would be a bit high and £39.99 would be just LOL.
flameboy Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Eshop only?! But it comes with a book that you can use as part of the game?!
Grazza Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Eshop only?! But it comes with a book that you can use as part of the game?! In Europe, yes. I suppose we'll get a digital version of the manual. But still, no CD, no manual - I'm grateful we're getting this but I definitely think it should be £20.
Agent Gibbs Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 So did anyone other than me buy this? its a nice classic beat em up style game like streets of rage etc and i'm loving it the dialogue has lots of jokey references i noticed and ti really doesn't take its self too seriously.

Bought it. Too busy playing Monster Hunter and Luigi's Mansion to try this out yet.
daftada Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Might pick this up when the summer drought arrives, if Animal Crossing doesn't steal all my spare time that is.
Dcubed Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 So I finally got it! It's awesome! It really is the spiritual successor to Guardian Heroes! I've played through about 8 chapters and I'm loving it. I love how each character feels really distinct and the writing/characters is really funny so far (Love the Ensemble bros ) The online feature set is also really quite robust and impressive, shame nobody is online though (speaking of which, does anyone know if the online servers are worldwide, or if they're separated by region? I know it's a niche game that didn't sell a lot, but the online seems to be completely barren which is a real shame) Wish this supported local Download Play, gonna be tough to convince my friends to also buy a copy
Dcubed Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 You can play online co op?! Online co-op and versus. Full lobby support with more or less every game option you could ask for (you can even have password protected lobbies - they put some real effort in here! ) Local multiplayer sadly requires multiple copies of the game though.
EEVILMURRAY Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 Working on this for the review. Rather enjoying it. I didn't like some of the characters once I started playing with them but as soon as you get used to their fighting style it's much better. It's actually making me dislike Solange more since her attacks aren't as versatile. Awesome way to cheat by rewatching the tutorials over and over and get EXP.
Agent Gibbs Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 did anyone else think Ali was a bloke until a later chapter where it was specifically said she was a girl...... currently playing through as Solange, she's a little difficult to get used to given her limited fighting, but spend the stat points on the right stats and she can be a bit of a tank
Dcubed Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 did anyone else think Ali was a bloke until a later chapter where it was specifically said she was a girl...... The padlock on her chest was the giveaway
EEVILMURRAY Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 The padlock on her chest was the giveaway It's true. If someone doesn't have a padlock on their chest - they're a dude. C'maahn. Don't bullshit me. I had a vague hunch Ali was a lass but since the voice wasn't feminine enough and there was no rack - dude assumption. Solange has a nice enough rack to compensate for it. I love Zozo though. She really sounds bothered about things... Here's a curse...
dazzybee Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I'll definitely pick this up at some point I reckon then. Though this will definitely get a price reduction so I'll wait for that!
Grazza Posted April 12, 2013 Posted April 12, 2013 I will definitely buy this, it's just that I need to play/finish Luigi's Mansion 2 and Etrian Odyssey III. If I enjoy it more than those, I'll feel bad for not buying it earlier.
-Dem0- Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 NA & Canada got a price drop. $39.99 to $29.99 Maybe we might see one soon. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=56523804&postcount=1208
Dcubed Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 NA & Canada got a price drop. $39.99 to $29.99 Maybe we might see one soon. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=56523804&postcount=1208 I doubt it. The game was already released at a discounted price over here to begin with, while it was released at full price in the US. They're just bringing parity between the two different prices here with this US discount.
Ville Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 So how are people liking this game? Might be interested in buying this, especially after hearing some of the music...
Agent Gibbs Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 How are people likeing this game? Its a great game, good characterisations and a retro beat em up feel.might not be worth £25 though, i thought it was, others didn't
Grazza Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Good news and bad news. The good news is that I've just paid full price for this, so I can guarantee it'll be reduced soon! The "bad" news is that I'm really not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. I just feel that the 3DS is too low-res for the art style and it really needs to be seen in HD (which it was designed in, perhaps?) It just has that feel that it was conceived as high-res, but shrunk down (as opposed to the spritework in, say, Mighty Switch Force 2, which is sharp and colourful). Gameplay is bash-bash-bash at the moment, but maybe it'll get better. Massive file size, by the way. Overall, I think this is something that I'm going to regret having as a download, but would have been happy to have on cartridge. They really should have done a physical release in Europe.
