You're welcome Wii :) and thanks for drawing attention to it, I wasn't sure if I should plug it or not being that it's a somewhat 'late' review but it's good to know that our reviews are noticed.

 

It was only a quick one too as I'm used to writing short reviews for VC Weekly but then I suppose it's all that's needed for a downloadable title, what a game though, such a brilliant example of game development done right. : peace:

Of course you should draw attention to it. It's a terrific game well deserving of praise and if you can't plug it here then where can it be plugged?

BUMP

 

Brilliant video, RedShell (with added sound effects!) The Hyper stages look quite a lot more complex, really making you think about the blocks. I am definitely going to buy this when I get a Wii U. :)

 

Two years later, I've kept my promise. See, no one can say I don't mean what I say. ;)

 

Bought this yesterday for £2 or so (all "four" MSF games are ridiculously cheap this week) and blasted through the Par times for the first 21 stages. Not recommended, to be honest (it's a great game, I just couldn't get to sleep for hours!)

With 42 stages (compared to 21), HD visuals and an alternative costume, I can see why most people consider this the definitive version - the hand-drawn art is sharp and a far better fit for the TV than the handheld's pixel sprites. That said, in no way do I regret having had the 3DS version instead for all these years. Even now, I'm still slightly more fond of that edition, as I've carried it around with me and listened to the music so many times - it's been like a portable music player for me!

 

The Wii U version's "Hyper" stages are extremely difficult and so I might leave them for now. All I can say is that I hope we haven't seen the last of Patricia Wagon!
