I just got so mad when I think about what Square Enix did here, even with Horii's sanction. It wouldn't have taken much to release a classic Japanese VN/adventure thing that was better than Nintendo's Famicom Meitantei stuff, given how stodgy those were. But this?
I actually think you've not gone hard enough on the art style. I didn't *love* love Klonoa 1 but I had a good enough time playing it on a Vita. The dull, flatly lit look of the remake here just looks cheap and a bit sad to me. I don't know if either of these games deserved some high budget masterful reworking but what happened here looked like a bummer from the first trailer.
@mento: Bury me under Dentetsu games (there are quite a few coming) before I touch another one of these things. At least the rest of this project is free and clear of Raw Jinsei.
@borgmaster: I make a lot of food, and nobody calls me Jeff the Cook. I drive a unassuming sedan, and nobody calls me Jeff the Economy Car Guy. But I vote for Jill Stein *one fucking time*...
Only a healthy and thriving development platform could play host to Plumbers Don't Wear Ties, and the definitive home port of Super Street Fighter II Turbo, within weeks of each other.
The upcoming stream of 3DO titles releasing that close to one another is hilarious. Imagine limbering up for the ensuing Saturn and PS1 launches in the office and your roster is fucking Way of the Warrior and Plumbers.
