Serebii Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 Figured I'd make a separate thread for this, since it'll be for sale separately (Japanese price 1500 Yen so probably £15) https://www.nintendo.co.jp/wiiu/bwfj/index.html This game looks like ridiculous fun. You can even create stages to face against your friends
RedShell Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 This actually looks more interesting to me than SF Zero. I'm interested in seeing just how intricate the stage creation aspect is, get a feeling it's gonna be pretty basic though.
peterl0 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 I was part listening to the direct and part gaming when I heard the words online and starfox guard. After the event I found out that the online was sharing levels with your friends. Why can we not play this sort of game online Nintendo?

peterl0 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 I thought that this from Serebii was suggesting that it was: You can even create stages to face against your friends But even if it is not, it looks like it could be. Surely it is what they were banging on about at the start of the Wii U's lifespan - asymmetric gameplay. One player is the guard and the other players have to invade. It feels a bit like someone said to Miyamoto - this is not really going anywhere is it? Kick it out the door.

It feels a bit like someone said to Miyamoto - this is not really going anywhere is it? Kick it out the door. It's more of a puzzle game, and you can create puzzles for your friends to play; no active control on the robots. Sort of reminds me of a Chu Chu Rocket type game. But yeah, a twist to add in a new mode would be amazing. A great stealth game where the player has to look at the camera and the other play hide behind walls and such. Problem with that is it would need two gamepads.
peterl0 Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 I must admit I never really got the game. I think I was turning the game into something I wanted more than something it actually is.

Serebii Posted April 12, 2016 Author Posted April 12, 2016 Seems the preview embargo is up on this now. It looks like so much fun.
Helmsly Posted April 13, 2016 Posted April 13, 2016 Is there a retail version of this game or is it download only?
Serebii Posted April 14, 2016 Author Posted April 14, 2016 Is there a retail version of this game or is it download only? Retail but it gives a download code. First print Star Fox Zero special edition has it on a disc though
dazzybee Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Retail but it gives a download code. First print Star Fox Zero special edition has it on a disc though So the "retail" version I bought from nintendo is actually just a code...? Will I get gold coins for it? Otherwise it's kind of pointless doing it.
Serebii Posted April 14, 2016 Author Posted April 14, 2016 So the "retail" version I bought from nintendo is actually just a code...? Will I get gold coins for it? Otherwise it's kind of pointless doing it. I believe download codes give you gold coins, yeah

Ashley Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) Yeah THANKS @Ashley, great review... Ha I realised that at like 1:30am! I need to go change that now. Sorry, it was Jonathan that reviewed it. Just me that put it up on the site (which is the real work). Edited April 20, 2016 by Ashley
Dcubed Posted April 20, 2016 Posted April 20, 2016 Looking forward to getting stuck into this one shortly. Looks like tons of fun
Serebii Posted April 22, 2016 Author Posted April 22, 2016 Just played a quick bit of this before I go for my morning run. It's so charming. I'm loving it so far.
Serebii Posted April 24, 2016 Author Posted April 24, 2016 So nobody's talking about this. Anyone playing through it? I'm gradually going on. It's not something I can sit and play an hour or so of in one go...I'm doing it in quick bursts. Half way through Titania at the moment. Enjoying it a fair bit
bob Posted April 24, 2016 Posted April 24, 2016 I could talk about it if you want. I don't own it, but I could give it a fair go?
dazzybee Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Had a go, seems pretty good to me. Great little puzzler, but only done a few puzzles so far.
Dcubed Posted April 25, 2016 Posted April 25, 2016 Finally got round to giving it a go. Fun little TD game. Haven't found it very hard though; beaten Corneria and I'm hoping that it gets tougher...
