Looks like what FlingSmash should've been.
"What did you want me to grab?" Ahh Holmes. Ever the charmer.

This is just balloon trip, and not the main battle game right?
I actually really like balloon fight, but the balloon trip mode wasn't the reason. Not had, just not as cool as balloon fight.

As a game within Nintendo Land? Hell yeah. If it were stand-alone? mehhh. Look I like it alright? OKAY?
I love Balloon Fight so this makes me very happy. It's not the Excite Bike World Rally style remake I'm hoping for, but it is close enough!
I still need to get Tingle's Balloon Fight...

It's one of, like, twelve mini-games in a single compilation, right? I don't see how it not being the most compelling thing ever is exactly newsworthy. XD
Balloon Fight has never been the kind of game to get fans really excited, but I still love it. I had never tried it before picking up a Famicom Mini GBA copy when I visited Japan in 2005. (Side note: Famicom Mini boxes are so cool!) The main game (i.e. not the Balloon Trip part) is total rip-off of Joust, but I think it's controls are much more fun. I liked it enough to buy it again during the Wii launch, when there was barely anything on Virtual Console.
I guess I'm one of the few people out there who is excited to see that this is part of Nintendo Land! Then again, I was also far too excited to see the fish that eats you show up in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Ice Climber level, so I'm sure there's something wrong with me.

Oh man, I first discovered Ballon Fight and the Ballon Trip mode within while playing the original Animal Crossing. I spent so much time trying to beat my scores. It's probably my most played NES game out of the 20 or so they had.
So even if most people aren't all that interested, I am! To be honest, not much else in NintendoLand has gotten me all that excited.

Ballon Fight was freakn great Holmes. I got it on 3ds, It's better than Joust. This looks like the bonus game to it that I never play. I hope they put the main game mode in.
As a minigame, it might be okay... But I don't think I like the touchscreen/fullscreen gimmick.
You control it with the touch screen, and can pop enemies with the touch screen. But if you want to see stuff, you have to look at the TV screen, because the touch screen only shows a fraction of the play field.
Why not just have the touch screen show the entire field? I halfway wonder if it was originally planned for the Wii's motion control and sensor, and the dual view stuff was added in only so you couldn't say "Why couldn't this be done on the Wii?" (Although, while you could get the same game play on the Wii with remote swiping and stabbing (with the IR pointer targeting), the poor motion control of the Wii might render the game unplayable.)

It has BALLOON FIGHT? And this shows off Nintendo's disconnection with "enthusiasts"?
Sure, maybe the type of enthusiast who has to contract tourettes to play online games, but in general...

Am actually hoping Nintendo Land is better than I expect it to be though. There's a 50/50 chance that I won't be able to afford any other games for it for a month unless my new job money comes through by then (holllaaaaaaa)
Ugh don't mention that goddamn 3D remake of Urban Champion! Talk about a waste of money from all ends!!! Meanwhile Super Mario, Donkey Kong Jr. Zelda and Metroid are all trapped in 2d on the 3DS... (kind of like how Super Mario Sunshine and Zelda Wind Waker never made it to New Play Control status) there is no justice in the world.
If they insisted on going retro... Ice Climber would have made a kick ass 3D classic! Hell even Wrecking Crew would have been an improvement on Urban Champion.

I think I finally understand Nintendo's obsession with Urban Champion.
It's a "sequel/remake" of Boxing for the Game&Watch, which is kind of a big deal for them since it's one of their first games, like, ever.
In fact, many of the "weird" game related things they do can be traced back to the G&W.

I absolutely love Balloon Fight. I may be the only person alive who actually feels this way, but I have always wanted more Balloon Fight games.
