I thought speedrunning had turned it into Cranky Kong Country: Tropical Geezer

Except the water levels yeah

Well, yeah, speedrunning means you're basically taking Cranky when in doubt (and you're basically always taking him for a boss fight) because pogo cane lets you keep your horizontal momentum and bounce of just about anything, but there are times where you want to use Dixie or Diddy as well (for the latter, mostly in the water levels, but he has his uses outside of that).

I mostly use Diddy for Hard Mode and the other two for regular levels. I don't really have a well thought reason as to why; it's just more fun to me that way.

Been playing and buying a fair few games since I got my Wii U last week. Rather like the console so far though its a shame there are not more ports/games of the quality of Deus Ex and Need for Speed: MW on the multiplat side of things in particular as they and Nintendo first party show clearly what can be done with the hardware if the effort is put in.

I guess now that MS and Sony are on a x86 based platform now and Wii U is stuck on PPC kinda makes thing worse to, would be amusing if Nintendo's next console was a AMD x86 based device as well though.

Also added myself to the goon ID list but figure ill put it in here to: X_SyN_X Because I need friends on Wii U.. so alone.

In other news, Hyrule Warriors has sold over one million units world wide, with about 13% of sales coming from Japan. Koei Tecmo (and Nintendo) are pleased.

Maybe for a sequel they'll pull characters from portable games or toon games

Hyrule Warriors: Empires where after you capture an area you have to play through it as an SNES style dungeon before it contributes as your territory

Hopefully from all other Zelda games. If they add portable characters in the next game, they need to give them black and white alt costumes.

Have maps designed after the game worlds, a ton of enemies from different games, and add in the B-list characters that wouldn't make it as Smash fighters, and you have a game that would never stop being played.

Even better if there are SSE-style cutscenes.

so 3 Dynasty Warriors games, a horribly Broken RPG with a game data destroying glitch, a Monster Hunter Ripoff that's uninspired, and Dead or Alive 5.

Not a particularity high bar to clear
