Then I announce that not only is there a shell, but there is a shell. As I boot up Mario Land, they think I'm just talking about the shell, which I'm happy to let them think for a minute. I then tell them to brace themselves for the most stupid and pointless but also kind of cool feature ever. First I show them the game running blown up to fill the top screen, then explain to them that if you're playing an original DS game, you can hold start + select to run it in native res and that this works with this game as well. That said, this has become my favorite thing to do when showing off the 3DS to other people. It's ridiculously short with only 11 short stages and only has two weapons to use, but if you want a cheap Castlevania fix it's great!Įxcitebike 3D looks great, but I wonder how many other classics would benefit from a 3D version? I can't think of any NES games from Nintendo that would look better with depth, I remember them all as very 2D games? How many NES games even have parallax scrolling or anything to "3D-ify"? Some of the sprites are just mild edits of the Castlevania games, and I could swear the ending music is hauntingly familiar.
SOUL OF DARKNESS DSIWARE RPG GAMES UPGRADE
I also played Soul of Darkness, which is the most blatant Castlevania rip-off ever, but God of War upgrade system. Super Mario Land is so different! I barely remembered that game and I must confess I didn't think I'd like it, but it playing a Mario game with actual themed based worlds with each world being completely different from the last? And I had forgotten about the shmup stages! We don't have Link's Awakening yet in Europe, is that the only new game in the store? I own the DX and non-DX version, yet I know I'm going to buy it when it's out here! It's strange, but when I played Pokémon on my 3DS I had to use the "Select + Start" trick to play it, it looked dreadful without it, but none of the DSiWare games I've played so far look bad? Those two are easily my most played DSi games. Makes me very hopeful for where the 3D classics (or whatever they're calling them) are going.ĮDIT EDIT: Tanu, if you're at all interested in the DSi shop, you need to get Artstyle Boxlife and Artstyle PictoBits. Especially since it's free, everyone needs to check that out. This shit has made me very happy.Īlso, has anyone tried out Excitebike yet? The way that the track actually visibly tilts away from you as you scale up the 3D is fucking great. It looks good scaled up, and really cool at native with the virtual gameboy screen around it in 3D. Not only that, but it translated really well. I have it now, everything else is just gravy.
SOUL OF DARKNESS DSIWARE RPG GAMES PORTABLE
All I wanted from the DSi Shop was to get a copy of Link's Awakening on my primary portable system that I could call up from a memory card whenever I wanted. That is fucking great.ĮDIT: After spending a bit of time with Link's Awakening, I gotta say that as far as I'm concerned, Nintendo has redeemed itself from the DSi store already.
