Pandora's Tower is a good game, but I really hated playing it with the wiimote because once you attach the chain to an enemy you have to waggle to damage it which is stupid.

I'm sure this has been discussed to death in this thread but I just got the 3DS version of Isaac and hot drat this thing is a steaming piece of poo poo. Tons of lag anytime there's a decent amount of stuff on screen (cricket's body gets you down to single frames) and frequent crashing.

Not exactly the best game to show off the power of the New 3DS.

The Vita port had a bunch of problems too, I think it's really just Nicalis being incompetant

I think it's probably Monster Hunter fans that really get the most out of the N3DS since you can easily put hundreds of hours into that game (I guess that applies to BoI too but there are like 5 better platforms to play it on)

I used to think that but then I replayed both last year and 2 is easily superior. 3 is still a good game but 2 is absolutely astounding. If not for Link's Awakening it would be the best GB game of all time.

Every time I boot up Wario Land 3 I spend 75% of the time thinking "what the gently caress am I supposed to do here" and then 20% of the time looking at a walkthrough and that's loving dumb for a wario game.

Wario Land 4 has a really slick soundtrack. Better even, if you are good at finding secret items, you will see the composer (cosplaying as Wario) showing you some of his more bizarre works. Love that game so much.

Only play Wario Master of Disguise if you are a masochist. It's not as painful as Dana Carvey's lovely movie, though.

Wario Land 4 is really, really good though. Maybe even better than 2.

EDIT: The platforming and transformations in Wario MoD are ok, even fun at times, but it's bogged down by the fact that it's a game about collecting treasure, but every treasure box requires you to play a really lovely touch screen minigame that seems horribly out of place. That and for some reason there is a ton of unskippable dialogue. Plus it suffers from the problem a lot of DS games had which was that it was too strict about how accurate your drawings had to be to work properly, making it an exercise in frustration when you have to quickly draw something. See also: Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow.

Happy Monday, Squids! It’s come to our attention that some of our junior squid researchers (that’s you guys!) might not actually have their very own copy of Splatoon yet. Imagine a poor, poor junior squid researcher staring longingly at their Wii U and letting out a sad sigh. If this is a scenario that you’re familiar with, boy howdy have we got a proposition for you!
Visit the Nintendo eShop and download the Splatoon Testfire demo to your Wii U. Launch the demo from 3-5 PM PT on August 21-23 and get ready to get inked!
