Posted September 14 I'm racking my head wondering how some of the puzzles work in this version! Because I still remember the Home puzzle in the sequel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 14 Weird that I was thinking about Cing (rip) and that that we won’t see Another Code again just last night. Well they proved me wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was one of my first thoughts too. The first one had a couple of devious ones that relied on the DS’ features and the clamshell design. Hopefully they’ll come up with a clever alternative.

Posted September 14 I'm interested to know who the developers are, would be cool if Nintendo had brought together some of the original team. I'm sure they'll have some interesting new twists in the puzzle solving, the Switch has plenty of hardware features they could use (might well be another game that takes advantage of the IR sensor) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The eShop page does mention there being new puzzles, so I suspect that those puzzles will end up getting replaced… Either way, I’m loving this recent Nintendo Adventure Game revival trend Edited September 14 by Dcubed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted September 14 So many questions swirling through my mind! I am absolutely astonished that they're bringing this series back! With a proper remake too (which was absolutely needed). Ashley's voice, the facial animations, and they even redesigned her for R! She looks so nice with those earrings, and the boxart is a work of art, and just... God, this is such a nice thing to happen in the world. I am excited to hear about the developers, I truly am. By the way, for anybody who hasn't played the originals, such as @Julius, I should warn you that the original games were tailor-made for their respective platforms, and cannot work outside of them. As such, I fully expect this remake to have entirely new puzzles and/or interfaces (ideally, tailor-made for the Switch). It's a key aspect of the series that you should at least be aware of, if you're thinking of checking it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted September 15 This is literally a dream come true for me, to the point where I had to double-check I wasn't actually dreaming. Then, upon realizing this was actually really happening, I burst into tears and barely managed to pay attention to the next 5-10 minutes of the Direct! These are two of the most important games of my entire life. The first game in particular played such a huge part in shaping me both in terms of gaming (and literature) tastes and also just... generally, as a person, while the sequel improved on literally everything from the first game and remains one of my favourite games of all time to this day... Plus I've been meaning to find the time to replay them for quite a while now, so this announcement felt like it was tailored specifically for me! I sincerely can't recommend these games enough; anyone who feels even the slightest interest in checking them out should absolutely do so! I'm already planning to buy several copies to give as belated Christmas gifts to all my friends who own Switches. Here's hoping it'll also increase the chances of a Hotel Dusk/Last Window remake collection in the future... Then my DS can finally be retired for good! I dare not even start hoping for the third Another Code game they talked about back in the day to finally become reality... I'm more than happy enough with what they're giving me here. 11 hours ago, Glen-i said: That is some lovely boxart!

The director and character designer of the original games tweeted that he's working as art director on the remakes! And he's clearly outdone himself once again with both the wonderful box art above and Ashley's two new outfits! I feel like I'm back in my teenage years, falling in love with Ashley all over again... 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
