GBA voice clips and Nintendo's insistence on their use was one of the worst tragedies of the mid-aughts

Fuckin' ruined LttP and Yoshi's Island

The worst thing for me was so many games using that, dunno what to call it... prerendered? look like in Mario Vs Donkey Kong. Looked like poo poo, man.

i like the voice clips. the voice clip GBA games were the first time i played through stuff like LTTP and SMB2, and even Yoshi's Island. I played the originals when I was a little kid at my friend's house but I never owned the games and we were too bad at video games to beat them.

Why would it be disc only?

I didn't think NOA would even go so far as to put it on the eShop, I dunno. I hadn't heard otherwise, and if it was going to be disc only I'd likely have to preorder it or something because it'd be a limited run?

The stage sets look of the original was really charming, so while All Stars is better looking on a technical level it does lose several of those theatrical elements, hth

So as not to anger Game Stop. You know how expensive it is to open brand new copies of Xenoblade and sell them off as used. :v:

I am seriously expecting it won't happen because of this, but hopefully I am dead wrong. If it shows up on American eShop I would think it would be this Sunday. Xenoblade on Wii U also works with the gamepad.

Yeah, whatever that GBA-era visual effect was also causes those games to display pretty poorly when scaled up in emulators; Mario Golf Advance and Golden Sun are two others that don't hold up well these days, compared to something like Super Mario World (SNES) that still looks pretty great at 4x its original resolution with the right filter applied.

Wouldn't you be forced to use a Wii remote/nunchuck or Wii Pro controller? Last time I replayed the game it was the Wii disc in the WiiU and I had to use the traditional controller but wouldn't Wii games on the eShop just default to Wii mode anyway?

If the game supports the Wii classic controller then the gamepad can be used as a controller, but only then. So you could play with the gamepad as the controller (but no Wii U pro controller). I don't think any of these Wii classic controller games have come to NA yet, but they have to other regions.

I expect it to be terrible.

But I hope it's terrible in the vein of something like Disaster Day of Crisis or 50 Cent Blood on the Sand. Not worth the $60, but you know, when it's $10 in a bargain bin somewhere, you can pick it up and have a good laugh at it.

I had a look online to check. I found this.

http://kotaku.com/5865181/should-you-buy-fortune-street-no

I'd do the opposite of what Kotaku suggests and just buy a copy now. The multiplayer is really well thought out, since you have the choice of each player using their own Wii remote or just passing one round, and you can let an AI take over if you need to go to the bathroom.

Fortune Street is good and if the AC board game is anything like it then all is forgiven.

what if i told you

it's the same as the all stars one

They're not

Super Mario Bros 2
Had Ace Coins to collect in each level
Giant vegetables, enemies, and POW Blocks
New Boss Robirdo
New Game Plus Yoshi's Challenge (I think it was a call back to BS Super Mario USA because some of the eggs were hidden in the same spots as the Gold Mario Statue.)

Super Mario World
Some added cutscenes
You can change between Mario and Luigi at any time
You got Peach Coins when you collect all the Drangon coins.
Luigi followed what he did in SMAS+SMW but more so with :
Luigi jumps higher but fell slower like SMB2 ,
sufferers from worse traction,
slower than Mario.
when flying with the cape Cape, he doesn't fly as fast as Mario, but he flies slightly higher than him,
fireballs bounce higher than Mario's,
Luigi rides Yoshi, he does not instantly swallow any enemy. Instead, Yoshi can spit them out and use them to attack other enemies
if Luigi hits a Coin Block, all of the coins inside it will spill out of the block at once instead of collecting them one by one.

Yoshi's Island (replacing Super Mario Lost Levels spot)
6 extra levels and used Yoshi Story voice clips for Yoshi and Shy Guys.

Super Mario Bros. 3
Can play as Mario and Luigi at the same time.
e Reader Cards (basically DLC) that added:
e World Levels that had assets from the other 3 Advance and Super Mario Bros game.
Advance and e Reader coins
Cape Feather from SMW, Luigi's jump and vegetables from SMB2 in main game. (there was more but they only came out in Japan due to poor e Reader sales)
here is some gameplay of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TORb2gRHTNE

And they all came with Mario Bros (replacing Super Mario Bros)
Looks and plays better, and has the Power Squat Jumping, Spinies replace Shellcreepers, 1 cart 2-4 Player mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9jPbF_NDXA


They were the best GBA voices especially Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Peach. I think most of the Nintendo GBA remakes used voices except Kirby Nightmare In Dream Land.
