Hero-of-Time Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 To hell with Smash Bros. This was the best announcement of the Direct! 4
Agent Gibbs Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 Very nice! loved the first one and the two player element my Girlfriend will love
nekunando Posted March 9, 2018 Posted March 9, 2018 I'm so hyped to play this again even if the thought of trying to conquer Mummy Me Maze Forever again terrifies my very soul 1
Hero-of-Time Posted March 12, 2018 Author Posted March 12, 2018 I have to say, I love the response this is getting from various outlets. I've watched Easy Allies, NVC, Giant Bomb and Kinda Funny and all of them seem excited for the return of the Captain. Well, Giant Bomb didn't really react ( do they ever? ) but the office across from them did.

(Apart from Jared annoyingly jumping on the bandwagon) He seemed to be the only one who knew anything about most of the games that were shown. The guy next to Tim didn't have a clue about a lot of the stuff and looked bored stiff. Same for Greg. Although, his bread and butter has been PlayStation for years and, outside of Mario Kart, he doesn't really have much of a history with Nintendo stuff.

Couldn't go two seconds without piping up. I don't watch anything he's on anymore, with a couple of exceptions like Kinda Funny's reacts vid. Andy isn't realy hardcore enough and to be fair is only on their games shows very rarely. Greg seems to spend half of his time head down in his laptop making notes, he misses so much, really strange. He may not have the history with Nintendo (apart from Mario Golf lol) but he's all in on the Switch which is nice to see as a hardcore Playstation guy.

Probably because his Vita is no longer serving his handheld needs. Sure, it still gets indie games but if the Switch is also getting those games then I imagine he would rather have them on a bigger and better screen.

He's big on Kart, Captain Toad, Smash etc Mario was his GOTY over Horizon, he loved Zelda and yeah as an indie machine there's no comparison really.

Yeah, he's always been big on Kart and Smash...basically anything with Mario in it.
Jonnas Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Huh, Podcast talk started earlier than usual... Anyway, I'm probably going to be checking this out for 3DS. This always looked like a very enjoyable type of game, reminds me of a 3D version of Donkey Kong '94.
Dcubed Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) The 3DS version does look enormously impressive! I can hardly believe that it looks that good on the little thing! Just like Poochy & Yoshi’s Wooly World, it looks like total witchcraft! Edited March 13, 2018 by Dcubed
Aneres11 Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 I've never played Captain Toad so I have a feeling I'm in for a bit of a treat.

I was never that fond of the Captain Toad stages in Super Mario 3D World but Treasure Tracker is amazing and I'm so glad it is getting another chance on Switch. I wouldn't mind some DLC at some point too in addition to the extra stages we're already getting

BowserBasher Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Think I’ll be picking this up. Never played the WiiU one but I always wanted to. Looks like a great little puzzle game.
Ronnie Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 You guys are in for a treat. It's bursting with charm

Come on now. Us not buying Captain Toad was hardly the reason the Wii U flopped . Buuuttt I take your point.
markderoos Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Captain Toad is very symbolical for Nintendo; often dismissed because of how childish and easy it looks but actually a gem when you can see through its appearance. But also: not for everyone
Dog-amoto Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Great game. Just hope they include an option to turn off that god awful gyroscope controlled camera
Dcubed Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) Looks like the game uses the Joy-con gyro as a pointer to replace the touchscreen when playing on the TV. Exactly as I was hoping and expecting Such a fantastic game! Really looking forward to diving into it again! (Also hope we get SM3DW on Switch at some point!) Edited May 26, 2018 by Dcubed 3
BowserBasher Posted May 26, 2018 Posted May 26, 2018 Yep, I’m so getting it this time around. Looks great.
