Yah, I mentioned in a older post, i just bought a SNES from a relitive. It came with 10 games, and all of whiched I liked, one of the funnest two player games were, battle toads. Battle toads is a side scroller brawler that not only kicked the baddies a$$, but your friends as well as traditionaly you could hit each other.

Anyways, while looking for tricks on youtube, I came across a video... about not battletoads JUST comming to virtrual consal, but as a FULL 3D GAME sequal!

I won't say much more, here is the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnPv9l-5LNQ&feature=rec-HM-fresh+div

So, is this the real thing?! It looks cheap, but convincing... I am really unsure of this, but seems real enough, and the game play makes sence on the wii.

It's fake.

The "Wii would like to play" gang was obviously taken from, what else, the TV ads. Props to the graphics though.

And Rare owns the Battletoads license, so a 3-D remake and the sort would appear on the 360, not Wii. With more Brown Shading. (haha)

He also might've been sarcastic. =/

If he really can't tell it's fake the "Do a barrel roll" and the clip from the f-zero anime totally give it away as being from 4chan...

(I still remember them making it, there also a better done fake boxart floating around for the wii and 360)

Meh, Tacnol [sic] is a dead giveaway.

Also it's missing the 60Hz and EDTV icons so this would be a lame ass 50Hz only game.

Microsoft owns the Battletoads IP, so a Wii version won't happen. A DS version is possible since Microsoft doesn't make portable systems and has shown that they don't mind their IP's being on Nintendo handhelds (see Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise).

The generic Dolby symbol is mostly found on... tape decks and VCRs and massive cool 1980s stereos.

I also like how the copyright text is oddly fused together and how it uses Activision's UK address even though it's "published" by a defunct company which has a split personality of Tradewest and Tradewinds in the copyright text.

That was the best videogame commercial I've seen since Prime!

This video is so much funnier

James Rolfe is great.

I hope you were being sarcastic.

What the hell did I just watch?

Stogi · « **Reply #14 on:** August 09, 2009, 11:44:58 PM »

Not at all. As much as I love Battletoads, he sums up my thoughts on the subject quite nicely. It's especially funny that they quit where I had quit. The game is fucking impossible.

And yes, that music when you press start is awesome.

Dasmos · « **Reply #15 on:** August 10, 2009, 12:00:06 AM »

Yeah, but it wasn't funny.

Peachylala · « **Reply #16 on:** August 10, 2009, 10:45:49 AM »

James Rolfe is not funny, will never be funny.

He was basically the bad half of the NC's video review of TMNT: Coming Out Of Their Shells video.

Why would you repost something as a reply to a comment of what was already posted?

It just makes no sense. and a repost from a secondary source with a link you have to edit too.

BwrJim! · « **Reply #20 on:** August 10, 2009, 05:43:31 PM »

actually, i didn't see that first link... I mistook it for the link to the video again for the fake promo..

heheh.. why did i sensor it? because kids are on this site. ti's why.

nickmitch · « **Reply #21 on:** August 10, 2009, 06:31:36 PM »

So, we definitely need to get the ball rolling on this Battle Toad remake.
Somebody make a few phone calls to the right people.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #22 on:** August 10, 2009, 07:14:05 PM »

"Hello Microsoft entertainment and game development department....."

Stogi · « **Reply #23 on:** August 10, 2009, 07:15:08 PM »

**** that. Someone just needs to make a blatant knock off and sell that bitch on WiiWare.

BattleFrogs or something like that.

BTW, did anyone ever play BattleToads & Double Dragon. That was possibly my favorite game to play two player.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #24 on:** August 10, 2009, 07:18:35 PM »

BattleFrogs & DragonTwinz....?

I'm on board. lets hop to it.
