Yes! The real OT is here after many pages of analyzing those two words in the OT countdown OT!

Good job on the OT. I really can't wait for this!

Wait a second... Is FoxHimself in the U.S.? If so, he can confirm whether the U.S. box has the special holes on the inside of the case with the portrait art on the reverse side of the cover!

Nah, the photo of the game he posted earlier had a PEGI rating.

Some people are still skeptical, thinking that it may just be for the press copies. (I'm not, really)

So I guess you can't move the reticle with the circle pad after all. Damn, I was all ready to play this Sin and Punishment style for nostalgia reasons.
Click to expand...

Maybe you can, but it's not displayed as an option because whoever shot the photos already picked the circle pad for movement in step 1.

Haha. I'm totally supposed to be on a tight budget. After I found out I'd be footing out money for tuition, which I know makes me sound spoiled or whatever but it's a complicated situation, I spent a good day budgeting money for the next year, figuring out what I could splurge money on and what I couldn't. Been keeping a weekly track of what money is being spent on just to make sure I was on track with what I had originally planned. I was actually sticking to the budget pretty damn good until I went ahead and bought a Vita last week :3 I guess it wouldn't hurt too much to buy this game :p

There are at least 70 cards, and I've heard there are "hundreds."

edit: here's an article.

Please, there is any way to save that Medusa Revenge forever in my 3DS?

This video is PERFECT! Top in every thing and with a really impressive 3D (that pop out a lot from screen).

I want to have this video to watch it every time I want.

Is that just on the eshop? Sucks that you can't save every video to the card like the E3 and other videos.

Normally I am so adamant about picking out my own games but this is when I'm really really waiting for reviews and impressions on

It seems very interesting I like a lot of the little wagering and loot aspects to it, but something about it leaves me very hesitant.

Check the movie at the very bottom of this page. You can see a strafing mode with R and the analog stick for aiming. Is that what you want? Dunno how it works, though. You'll have to ask Fox for that. :p
Click to expand...
Not quite... All I want is the analog to replace the touch screen for reticle even if it is slower than the touch screen. They still use the analog there for strafing.

At least in the US, the 6 cards you get with the game are a random 6 out of a set of 20. But that's not the full set, just the 20 cards that Nintendo is willing to give away with the game.

But Nintendo has said "hundreds of cards"

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/29472
While Nintendo has not been specific as to the total number of cards, noting that there are "hundreds" in "Series 1," the serial numbers found on each card indicate that there are at least 336.

It appears you can do that. Check the end of the video, in step 1 (Pit's movement) they pick ABXY and in step 2 (reticule movement) they pick the circle pad.

Maybe earlier in the video they were showing off how to use strafing if you pick the circle pad in step 1 and ABXY in step 2 or some other non-touchscreen configuration...?

You are right. The third option highlights the circle pad. FUCKING SIN AND PUNISHMENT 3 CONFIRMED MOTHERFUCKERS

Referring to the new anime, right, from 4C? Yeah, I'd like to know how to save a copy too. Can someone extract it from the SD card and upload it so we can re-download it once Nintendo invariably overwrites it with a Nintendo Video update? Is it even possible to extract it?

It's probably a big deal for lefties who don't want to use the the CPP. I'm probably going to use the stylus but I'm still interested in trying it. This is the guy who managed to get Brawl somewhat functional on a friggin' sideways Wiimote after all.

Would it really be that difficult to play this using your non-dominant hand on the stylus? It seems like simple flicks turn the camera and a sliding gesture should be easy enough to aim the reticule no matter which hand you use... No?

So I guess there's only one question left to answer re: controls - if you select the Pro as a movement option can you then select the default circle pad to move the reticule?

I guess it's kinda hard to test all this stuff when the only person (people?) with the game doesn't have a Pro.

Because Sin and Punishment played awesome.

I'm sure I will eventually stick to touchscreen controls since real-time aiming proved to be much better for S&P2, but going back to N64-style controls is gonna be a huge moment of nostalgia for me.

If you can, then movement would be restricted to the D-Pad or something.
As has been said so many times now, this game does not support Dual Analog.

No, its on Nintendo Video. I think some of the videos from that app go up for sale later on the eShop though. Maybe the Kid Icarus animes will.

We were also being told the game would only have one control scheme for a long time, too, and that aiming with the circle pad wasn't worth implementing because the stylus is more accurate, yet here we are.

Okay, wow. I just saw that Medusa short by 4C. The 3D on that thing really impressed me, and the art was great! They NEED to be longer than 3 minutes :'(

True, I wanted to see more of 4C's video. It's a lot better than what Production I.G. made.

And I hope they put the videos on eShop, full-length.
