Would people be this excited about this thing if it weren't
1) Nintendo-made
2) Based on a franchise that people are desperate for more of?
You ask truly compelling questions that would give pause to any critical thinker out there, and give him various avenues of thought to tread, most likely harvesting nuggest of wisdom as valuable as gold. Thanks for you're concern and totally necessary questions. Thank God for YOU.
It's pretty good for any game. I got my hands on this back when it was a "tech demo" at E3 2011 and absolutely loved it. Even without the cutesy Mario look it would a good time because it's such a simple throwback to childhood fun that makes brilliant use of the Wii U's tablet controller in a way that no other local multi title ever could before.
And people aren't as excited about it as you think; people just find the games fun (amazing, right?). Few people are hyped about this game, proclaiming that it is the new Ocarina of Time, FFVII, etc..
I'm sure you'll see that people just find it childish and fun when Sony comes out with super intense Playstation Allstars: Minigame Royale.
The Metroid, Zelda, and Pikmin games look like fun but I don't really have people over all that often so I am guessing I won't get the most out of them. They still have more attractions to reveal so I could still be convinced.
I do think that the idea for Nintendo Land is smart though. If Wii Sports had starred all of the Nintendo characters, I think that games like Kirby, Metroid, and Animal Crossing would have done much better for them.
Which is sad because it would be fun to hear impressions from the old Nintendo fan (Holmes) side by side with the kid Nintendo fan (Stealth).
Btw, when will Stealth be on podtoid?
If you spent all your online time pretending you knew EVERYTHING there is to know about EVERYTHING gaming related, you'd probably be pretty pissed at nintendo for making you look like a clueless dork as often as they do too.
Yes! I wish more people got to experience the goodness that is Pac-Man Vs.!
If you are one of the many who haven't and you own a GC/Wii and a GBA, you need to quickly find a copy of this game(eBay) and a GC–GBA Link cable(eBay), get three GC controllers and invite some friends over! Yes, it's a lot of damn work, but it's worth it! Do it. If you succeed, expect lots of tangled cords and happy faces. =)
