Agreed. Game looks fricking fantastic (well, it always has, even since its debut.) Only downside is jaggies, but that's endemic to all 3DS games.
This game is going to be a Dark Horse for handheld GOTY, I can feel it.

Sweet, JP site has the full main theme 
. I really like it. Graphics look pretty damn good, lighting seems to have improved unless I'm mistaken.
Typically every Nintendo game ever looks bad in screenshots, maybe they finally learned how to capture
. But yeah, looks great, will look even better in 3D methinks. Is it me or do some shots have AA?
Edit: Who's composing this? Does Next Level Games have their own composer working on the game or is it someone from Nintendo?

Being able to delay it for a long-arse time probably has something to do with it.
I don't think so, no. You can control the vacuum with the gyro or the face buttons, whichever you prefer.

It'll have to fight Pokemon X & Y, Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem, Soul Sacrafice (?), Mario & Luigi 4, and Donkey Kong Returns 3D for it though.
Which reminds me, get some of NLG's cast to help Game Freak a bit on the overworld in X/Y. It's a bit bland, and the textures aren't as good as they can be. The battles look pretty good though.

The only one it legitimately has to fend off is MH3U.
Maybe Pokemon X/Y if it's fantastic but I have reservations.

New 3DS Zelda, this holiday. Believe.
Shin Megami Tensei IV
That being said, Luigi looks incredible. It seems like NLG had a pretty good budget for this game.
Still not seeing how it would win. Also, I own a Vita and the last thing I'd give HGOTY to would be yet another Monster Hunter clone. Ys deserves it more than that does.Soul Sacrifice will invariably win the HGOTY
All the Vita fans will vote for it, while the vote will be split amongst 3DS people.

I remember when people were saying the same thing about Sticker Star.

That made me lol, haha.

Sigh, that's true. I fear a schism between X/Y, Fire Emblem, and Luigi's Mansion. It's so sad.

Sticker Star was pretty good, it suffered because of Miyamoto backlash (on GAF, at least) after Iwata Asks and not being the TTYD sequel fans of that game wanted it to be.
Some of the videos on the JP site give me hope that there's some good puzzle solving and uses for the vacuum.

It looks better than the GC game to me. Those effects make it that way I guess.
You have a Demonica avatar, and you forgot this?!
That's in April. Those 4 games are all within a week of each other.
Damn it, and we're getting a bunch of eShop games soon too. Kerploosh!, HarmoKnight, Dillion's Rolling Western: The Last Ranger are all confirmed within the next 5 weeks, along with the probable releases of Nano Assault EX and ATV Wild Ride 3D.

It's presentation, to me, looks even better.
How many mansions do you think there'll be total?
Any chance for a Kid Icarus/SM3DL style 'but wait, there's more?'
You know, if the delay resulted in the new multiplayer modes and post-game mansions, I'll be super happy.
To answer your question, there are supposed to be five.

What is LM2's original language? English? The completionist in me wants to play it in the original, but the Japanese version is out in about 23 days...
And I don't have a non-jp system anyway.

It actually does! After Nintendo showed the video before the last one, I was so dissatisfied with graphics. Since then the game improved tremendously and is an absolute eye-candy!

Any videos I could watch for the before and after?
And the US version comes out 4 days after.
Anyways, Next Level Games is a Canadian company, so I'd guess the original language is English.There's a bunch of them on Youtube. Although after rewatching some of them, I am starting to wonder wether the perceived improvement in visuals is due to the fact that Nintendo only recently showed some of the more elaborated rooms.

So next month I have to get Castlevania, Monster Hunter, and Luigi's Mansion?
Whose brilliant idea was it to put three big 3DS games together in one month?

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon is out on the same day as LM, too (in NA).

One of the subheadings on the website is "The Tools and the Talent". Good to know that there are Ghostbusters fans working for Nintendo.

Yup. It just seems that when you have Nintendo supervising your game it's going to play and look good. This game is obviously no exception. I really can't wait for this damn game.
Anyone know how to rip these intros into gifs?

The best part about that picture is every game in it looks amazing, and a great price.
I was on the fence about this title but will most likely grab it. Anyone recommend the first game, first?
If you can find it, sure. It's a short game but it's incredibly charming, lot's of fun to be had searching for treasure as well, lot's of amazing (for its time) physics effects when you use your vaccuum.
Preferably you'd want to get the PAL version. All games have a second quest, but the PAL version adds to it. Bosses have different patterns, the mansion is mirrored, more regular ghosts among other things.
Makes a second run more interesting if you want more the second you beat it.
