    Am I the only person who thinks that geyser looked more like a platform than something that would kill you.

    How about a new wonder boy since that series was much better and this game just ripped it off anyway?

    I just threw in Luigi's Mansion, Rogue Leader and Metroid Prime on Wii Why can't Wii games look like those on average? What is wrong with 3rd party developers on Wii? This looks like shit

    I have to admit, that looks pretty fucking ugly.


    It doesn't even look like it captures the spirit of the original other than the fact that you're playing and an ugly shirtless guy with a hat.

    The main thing I remember about Adventure Island was how fucking frustrating and unfair the game was.

    @shouryuuken: That would be laying it on a bit too thick. Sure I'm serious. It has that right mix of unpretentiousness and nostalgia, and an update to a classic side scroller.

    @Madeira: i wasnt hating on the game by no means.. my favorite genres happen to be platforming/sidescrolling, beat em ups, and fighting games. so yeah.. i was actually excited by your comment but didnt want to be like "yeah! thats what im talking about!" and you be like "man i wasnt serious this game looks like old dog food."

    "Master Higgins' penchant for 8-bit shirtlessness was kind of a turn off to me"


    Oh...then you won't like Arther from "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts" then...that guy shed his 8-bit apparel like it was no one's business...
