This looks pretty sweet actually! I like the original sprites way better than the WiiWare sprites, so I'm excited to see they chose the originals. I would definitely play this game with the 2D sprites, they're just so adorable.
Oh what I would give for a 1080p Cave Story adventure with hand painted sprites and backgrounds similar to the concept art... The 3d looks bad, like early PS2-era bad.
It will be hard to see the enemies and the deadly traps while shooting with these visuals.
I'm sorry Nicalis, but you don't do Cave Story justice, in my opinion. Cave Story didn't need to be made in 3D, but they're doing it just for the 3D-screen gimmick, and that's not what will make Cave Story better.

I haven't played Cave Story yet, being downloadable and all, so now that it's getting a proper release I can actually support it and see what all the hype is about. I will say I like the sprites better, but only when it's full sprite. The half and half thing never really appealed to me, so I'll probably stick with poly mode.

Play the game for free on PC, just google it.
There it's all sprites, and all awesome :)
We have yet to know whether or not Cave Story 3D-Gimmick Version lives up to the name, but in case it's bad, it's better to have played the proper version first. You can still support it by purchasing it after you've played it :)

their reasoning why there won't be wiiware/original version on 3DS card is just bizzare. i mean come on, putting even as unlockables the other 2 versions wouldn't cost you anything and it would get you a lot more sales. i for example would like to have all 3 versions on one platform. if homebrew guys could port entire Cave Story on PSP(with widescreen) then it shouldn't be a problem for developer of the original game to port it to 3DS.
Hey guys, it's totally a different engine so getting the original art in there required some actual development time on our part. It's not free, quick or easy to make the 2D environments work.
Regarding the WiiWare artwork, remember that the Wii has a resolution of 640x480 and the 3DS is 400x240. There's no way the WiiWare artwork would look as good as it did on Wii with the big res difference.
Hope this helps!

I would much rather just have the Wiiware version on my 3ds, so I can have it with me always.
not sold at all on the 3d environments.

Good. I didn't like the new sprites. I still don't see the new graphics having much of a positive effect on the game; it looks more cramped. Like when Mega Man 7 went to SNES.
I hate when nerds complain when a game isn't in glorious 1080p HD. it makes me gag and barf everywhere....just saying.
i dont want to be that guy... but i think i wont be buying a ds anymore:

Now I want to see how it all comes together in motion. Screenshots are so frickin' outdated!
P.S. - The game looks a lot better than screens let on, but the camera sort of wobbles around strangely in the Egg Corridor ...

Everything Sucks! Blargh! I hate/like the old/new way it looked/looks! Why can't games be the way that I like the games to be!!! Oh, good lord! I can't think of anything else the developers could do to make this game cater to you more. If you don't like any of the options available, just go play something else. For crying out loud.
Also: Thanks, Jonathan! I didn't see this one coming! Thanks!

Honestly I can get enough vanilla Cave Story on the go with my PSP, so I'm not super-bummed about the background thing.
Coming from someone who has played through it more times than I can count, this just doesn't feel very Cave Story.
I couldn't help but laugh at the 2D sprites on the 3D background, but honestly the environments don't look that bad. They just don't seem to evoke the same feeling...
I'd still buy it in a heartbeat, though.

I've got more than enough 2D versions of Cave Story available for me to play, I'm gonna use all the new features the 3DS has to offer.
I would definitely pay money to get the new DannyB soundtrack patched into my WiiWare version of Cave Story as DLC. DannyB + Adam Atomic + Cave Story would be so awesome.
