BattleMaster posted:I guess I've just had my fill of indy puzzle sidescrollers with graphics primarily consisting of black outlines two seconds At any rate, I've gotten a few hours into the game and I'm pretty thoroughly enjoying myself. Due to the high variety of functions and the surprisingly vast utility of each one, the game manages to push out a lot of puzzles that are unique and require some degree of lateral thinking. A number of elements of the game's presentation are quite charming, the atmosphere has been getting progressively more and more dense, there's a nice air of tenseness to the tighter, slower-paced puzzles, and the game is, in general, very polished, with a lot of really great, small touches that I would not expect from most indie titles. Admittedly, I'm a massive fan of Nifflas, so I'm a bit predisposed to liking the stuff he works on due to his games just generally being "my style," but I think I'd definitely recommend the game to anyone wanting a fairly unique puzzle experience.

ArmyOfMidgets posted:Oh yeah, get a Y cable, that's a must. I've never used a Y cable, just to make sure I "get it" what I can do is take a USB External Hard Drive that is supposed to just be powered by only a USB Slot, and use this cable to plug it into 2 USB Slots (the two on the front or back of the Wii U) to give it the extra power to do its job? If so, that's pretty awesome. I'd want to avoid having to deal with another power adapter at the video game / TV area. Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze took up so many gigabytes, and that was AFTER I moved about 10 gigs of stuff to a flash drive for storage keeping. At this price I've got to get Captain Toad, *mumbles* *mumbles* must buy hard drive...

Pretty much all the reviews are super positive for whatever that's worth to you The price is kinda steep for supposedly being 5/6 hours though so I'm gonna wait for a sale

What exactly was wrong with Twilight Princess, other than basically trying to be Ocarina of Time 2.0, which is what I thought the fans wanted?

Skyward Sword has good motion controls if you're one of the 50% who can get them to work correctly. Twilight Princess's are bad thoughStarhawk64 posted:What exactly was wrong with Twilight Princess, other than basically trying to be Ocarina of Time 2.0, which is what I thought the fans wanted? The game was boring as poo poo to look at. Everything was brown and there was too much bloom. Also it was just kind of boring in general Some of the dungeons were cool though

Twilight Princess plays a lot better on Gamecube but it's still one of the weaker Zeldas

I mean it's also worth noting that a mediocre Zelda is still better than like 90% of games so give it a shot if you need more Zelda in your life while waiting for Zelda U Play it on the gamecube though

Remember back when everyone bitched about Wind Waker's art style? Add that to the whole "We basically want OoT again!" sentiment and you get Twilight Princess. Nintendo was giving the fans exactly what they asked for.
