Why don't you just invest some skill points in memory retention next level?

This gets more and more excited every time I see it. The game looks quirky, innovative, and FRESH.

Too bad American homophobia and the obscure Nintendo references will likely keep this away from our shores.

The way I see it, the game has no *** elements (as far as I know, and Birdo is in the game). Its basically a game built around the interaction of classic Nintendo characters. In other words; Chibi Robo with Nintendo characters.

The only thing that inspires homophobia is the name Captain Rainbow. The rainbow has been seen as a symbol for girls and *** people. Remember Rainbow Brite? She was an icon for girls.

We live in an era in which gamers view consoles as extensions of their egos, life styles...and dicks.

A game with a name like Captain Rainbow makes little boys...I mean grown men fear that their status is in shaky ground.

I personally see the character as a farce, kinda like Powered Toast Man. If the Rainbow elements are removed or toned down there wouldn't be a problem.

If this game is released in the US, name intact and all, I have to congratulate Nintendo for being bold.

Three commercials and a new trailer! (Best commercials ever!)

Caliban · « **Reply #92 on:** August 20, 2008, 01:03:37 AM »

So how's this game supposed to be played anyhow? I'm confused, and the commercials didn't help much. Well the trailer gave some insight, but I have no clue on what was being spoken.

Commercials were fantastic.

Think of it as Animal Crossing crossed with an action game...You explore the island in search of characters to help...You then provide your services (such as training Little Mac in boxing, the Famicom Wars Soldats in volleyball, etc)...I believe you have to collect those weird white things that have the yellow ears...Once you collect enough of them (through helping others and finding them around the island), you'll get a star...You have to get the star to a certain place (I guess so it can be granted), but "shadows" come after you, and if you're caught you are sent to a minigame where you face off against them...When you finally get the star to its goal, you can either grant Nick's wish (to become a really popular superhero) or one of the Nintendo characters' wishes...I assume choosing Nick's wish will just end the game, while granting everyone on the island's wishes will get you the true ending of the game... =)

Oh, and Famitsu has reviewed the game: 8/7/8/8 (31/40)

And what the review had to say from someone who has seen it:

Quote

The Famitsu cross-review in a nutshell : really great, funny characters and writing. The characters in particular are really expressive, and seem to all be living their own life withing the game (also thanks to the day/night cycle). Pretty enjoyable gameplay, good tempo. Some really indecent (in a good way) humor. Seems like the music is pretty good too. Overall, it would seem like they all really liked it, including the "7" guy.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #97 on:** August 20, 2008, 02:16:41 AM »

Thats a good score and overview of the game. I hope it gets a US release.

Nick DiMola · « **Reply #98 on:** August 20, 2008, 06:45:25 AM »

If this game doesn't see a US release I am going to be furious. I'm hoping Nintendo has something to say about localization soon.
