Oneish Yeah, and the 3DS version is completely solid. Aside from some minor graphical downgrades, it's arguably the true version of the game.
@oneish7454 7 жыл бұрын
ImDemonAlchemist I didn't notice any graphical downgrades, aside from the more washed out color palette. I do know the framerate got cut in half though, but 30 fps is perfectly playable.

To reach 200% completion, on your save file, all you have to do is complete all levels in mirror mode. You don't even have to collect the KONG letters in mirror mode. You don't have to complete any time trials, or collect a single puzzle piece. Based on what he says in the video, Jirard didn't know this.

That game was incredible the controls definitely took some getting used to and it would have been infinitely better had they incorporated 2 analog stick controls at least for the ground sections. Everything else in that game was amazing story, visuals, aesthetics, music, game play, voice acting all on epic levels. I really hope Sakurai brings a new and improved Kid Icarus in the style of Uprising onto the Switch. common Jirard lets give that game the attention it so richly deserves.
@jackhealy2434 7 жыл бұрын
facepwnagewtf on my god, yes. a kid icarus like that on the switch would be amazing! i mean it's technically a third person shooter, so they could just move the touch screen controls over to the right stick. it'd work really well on land battles, air battles might be a bit more complicated though, but it wouldn't really be that bad of an issue.

My absolute favorite Donkey Kong game! Also, this is one of the few games where I actually *love* the controls! The caveat to the controls, though, is that you need the nunchuck attachment; the waggle makes more sense when you waggle both like how DK pounds the ground. I almost fully completed the game before the challenge threshold got to me. The charm and visuals are so captivating, it was still delightful playing while struggling through the harder challenges. Also, 2-player is a nightmare starting at around the 4th world, when mine cart and rocket runs cost 2 lives because only one of you will operate the cart. It's fun to play with friends up until then; After that, they are more of a burden due to the much more frequent crumbling platforms and obstacles. It's actually very reminiscent of the 4-player Mario games ; fun with friends until you're all in each other's way.

On this game, it was utterly useless and would have played alot better with a classic controller - wich was not an option).

I'm with you. I played this game for hours on coop, and when Tropical Freeze came out, I had the pro controller, but got so used to the wiimote hold vertically, that we still played it that way. I also did the shiny gold time attacks this way, and I must say for some parts it makes it easier, because shaking the controller can be done, while keeping full control of all the buttons. It makes timing a roll jump easier. And boy do those time attacks unlock the full potential of the level design!

I totally agree. I honestly thought doing high jumps off of enemies without triggering Diddy's Jetpack was the more annoying control issue. I never failed to roll when I wanted to, but I can't even count the number of times I soared right over an enemy I was trying to bounce on. If anything needed a different button, it was the jetpack, not the roll.

Idk if you know this, or if someone already told you, but having Diddy Kong on your back also allows you to infinitely roll, even tho it’s not always required. I’m sure you’ve found this out by now, but it can be helpful during the time trials

@Tahmis_Googboi 7 жыл бұрын
Fair enough. That's a good reason for the switch. But doesn't that put you at risk of just giving everything a "Finish it" rating, much like how other reviewers end up giving most games an 80% to 90% to every "good" game?
@OpXarxa 7 жыл бұрын
What's confidence got to do with it? sometimes a game is good but clearly broken by completion objectives. sometimes it's enjoyable enough to complete to reccomend doing so. But a vast majority of good games are at that akward middle point where completing them is worth it to a certain extent but can feel like a drag if you force yourself to it. that rating workd.

Okay, this was the first episode I enjoyed in a long time. It's not that I didn't like the last few episodes, but lately it feels like you completing games had become a chore as opposed to something you genuinely enjoy doing. But with DKC: Returns you seemed to finally really be enjoying yourself once more, probably because of how much you love the DKC series, and that really showed in this video
@isabellataylor8810 7 жыл бұрын
Hey Jirard, I know it's a somewhat obscure series but I'd love if you reviewed the Rune Factory series. To complete you have to get all the recipes and ship every item in the game. The games are...really easy, even on hard, but they are relaxing and fun to play.

I loved this one, I still believe it's one of the best 2d platformers released...ever. There's a patch you can install for this game through homebrew channel so you can do all the waggly things with the press of a button. Made the game go from really good to legendary.

I completed this game during a 3-day rental from my local video store, fucking loved it. Looking back, it does look pretty damn good for original Wii. The "waggle controls" neither helped nor hindered the game, imo. It's as easy to waggle as it is to press a button, if not easier. I feel that people just like to complain because it is a bit silly of a control style
