New Zealand Story Revolution (Kiwi Kraze)
Originally mentioned in the Bubble Bobble Revolution instruction manual last year (which was a million years ago), PANTS EXPANDING screens finally surface!

This is so awesome, I loved the original back in the arcades and on the Sega Master System. Seems like this is just going to be a remake of the original, unlike Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands which took place in all new levels. Delicious sprites, let me consume you. Boss battles might be all touch screen based tap tap tap shatter type things (I'm just guessing that from the whale screen, oh no he ate a car!), but the actual levels are hopefully left to the dpad. Rainbow Islands Revolution has very bad touch screen detection at times. ;_; Bubble Bobble Revolution finally gets released in America next month, too. |
That's a kiwi? I thought it looked was a chick :(
I've never played this game, or even heard of it before, but the screens look cute and colourful. No idea if I'll actually buy it though. What's up with the silly map? I mean it's completely devoid of features but your position and the exit. |
Yeah the map screen does seem a bit silly, they just took the NSMB approach where its only use is to show you how close you're getting to the finish. And poor Tiki's always been nothing like an actual Kiwi bird. :(
But in the original he was a fair bit thinner! http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/9361/nzs01ha8.png Now he's all fat for the DS, sort of like a real one! http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/2533/kiwixl9.jpg |
I wonder how someone who is kidnapped managed to find time to draw a picture for Tiki to see. Perhaps the villain stopped for a bathroom break? Is Tiki wearing [i/]sneakers[/i]? Oops, this looks like something that would be better off in the Suspension of Disbelief in Games thread.
I never realized real kiwis were so fat! Kiwis are delicious. The fruit! I mean the fruit! |
Awesome. This was one of my favourite platform games, hoping the soundtrack is as awesome as it was before.
|
So am I to assume there will not be an arcade perfect Original version included? :(
Either way, this is looking sweet. The remade graphics don't even look like poo, which is amazing! Tiki looks a bit plump, but it's not http://dsmedia.ign.com/ds/image/arti...1116459725.jpg so it's all good and exciting. Yet another title I'll need to get once I buy a Lite. Intense expectings of how the cover will turn out :tpg: |
Ahaha poor Boy and His Snot! And I dunno about the original being included, probably not. :( Oh and the cover, yes! That'll be an exciting mystery. =D Will they do more gigantic disgusting jelly blob creatures like Bubble Bobble or just leave the title against a nice simple background like Rainbow Islands? I'm betting the first one!

Tiki looks adorable. I'm so gonna buy this, as it looks no shitty and cute. |
You're shitting me. The New Zealand Story? Ahahah, this is so stupid it's awesome.
|
So this is what Elixir deals with every day?

Pretty much! When I holiday'd'd over there years ago, I remember trying to get a taxi and the guy was like "nah bro" and handed me this balloon. As soon as I got the hang of it all these crabs and snails started coming at me, shooting whitebait rockets out of their mouths. It was chaos! Giant ice whale is a popular tourist attraction in Wellington!

Jesus crow, I remember this game! I played it at my mom's friend's house on her son's Nintendo when she went over there to talk about flowers and stuff when I was like seven and the house smelled like a dusty flea market and this game was all I could really remember. I think they were east indian, I don't know.
Taito makes the most kawaii games ever. HAPPY END~! |

I remember this game. It didn't really click with me back in the mastersystem days, but I always played it when I was introduced to MAME. It's a fun game. The different ways of passing through the game is fun too. I don't think I've explored enough but I'm sure there's alot of secrets hiding away somewhere. Doors open up if you shoot in mid-air at nothing and stuff. Since they're bringing all these classics out on the DS, I half expect to see Lemmings. It would work with the touchscreen and everything. The remake of the NZ story looks "cuter" and I prefer the original, but they'd have to be pretty stupid to fuck this up. Like they did with Rainbow Islands. (Drawing rainbows with the stylus, oh, what a great idea that was.) Edit: Quote:

:confused: What the hell are you guys on about? Taito was simply the publisher (the guys who DISTRIBUTED the game), not the developer (the guys who MADE the game)... seriously, can't you guys tell the difference?
|
Of course I know, I just wanted to post the box art. :(
|
Like I said, way to kill the funny.

What's so appealing about a mini-game involving door handles? : /
The box art sucks, dude! For some reason, Tiki reminds me of Tweety in Mr. Hyde form :( |
I hope that means arranged versions of the original tunes- love the New Zealand Story theme.
|
Ah I'm glad to see faithful recreations at least, unlike rainbow islands which was utter nonsense.
