I used the Super Guide thing in Donkey Kong Country Returns the first time I played it because I had no idea what it was. I was disappointed almost immediately though I would have loved something like that as a kid (especially for Donkey Kong Country 2).

Yeah but now you have kids at the age of 3 playing and finishing Mario games. As a parent, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for that super guide sometimes. I also take pride in the fact that he only used the guide for maybe a quarter of the levels after he learned how to play properly. :smug:

I've used the super guide once or twice - but came back to that level within a few minutes and beat it much more easily.

The super guide feels like the right sort of concession; beats the hell out of having every twelve year old boot up youtube walkthroughs. I'm saddened to find out that New Mario WiiU ditched the hint movies that you pay for in star coins - some of the "super skills" videos legitimately made me love mario even more.

The pack in disc they later made that included New Luigi U also had a bunch of videos on it.

When AGDQ is going on, speedrunners who don't attend are rounded up and harvested. The dark ritual focuses the skill of that event into a single Nintendo console, allowing users of it to achieve pure wizardry.

Mario Club playtesters are lethal.

I believe the only thing that managed to break them was the cucco minigame in LoZ: Link between worlds, they probably reached an hour limit on that infinity variant or something.

Takemoto But the testers at Nintendo of America did say, "We can't clear this!" (laughs)

Iwata Oh, the lineup of master testers in America waved the white flag?

Asuke Yeah. We got an email saying, "Can this really be cleared?"

Iwata They thought it was a mistake in game design.

Takemoto Yeah. So I sent a video to America proving that it can be cleared.

Asuke Then the next day we got a reply saying, "Sorry. We did it." (laughs)

Doesn't look like it, but since both Bayo's are around 17 gigs I'll be getting the disc version instead anyway.

It's literally Ayane, Hayashi from Team Ninja requested they add her. It was revealed in the latest Famitsu, the devs talk about how they worked with Team Ninja to get the jiggle right, and how their new "wetness" tech makes the girls look extra sexy.

Wonder if Koei ever went back to their simulator roots they would just make Ayane a country ruler in say something like Gemfire 2 or Genghis Khan III. Man I miss the old Koei simulators for the SNES, they were the best.
