Didn't seem to make much difference to me. Even if there is, I think the 3D looks pretty good so I'd keep it on. FWIW, the choppiness was more noticeable to me outside of combat, where it doesn't really matter.
Does this version of the game have three levels of supers (the third has to be unlocked) for every character?
Looked pretty bad in the preview videos. That kind of sucks; the Vita sequel plays very, very smoothly and going backwards to the 3DS version from that is gonna hurt a bit, lol.

It took a while to finish downloading but it was worth the wait. I need to experiment with all the characters though to really figure out these combos.
Noticed the same thing during transformations it stutters pretty bad but I haven't encountered much during actual gameplay. Reminds me of Code of Princess just more boobs.

so could someone give an overview on combat? Is it standard 2 button light/heavy setup? Are there fighting game inputs? How does juggling work? Is there any defensive moves like rolls, counters etc.

The game part is better than I expected but nothing really complicated. Still enough to make me wanto try Shinobi Vesrus.
The Story part is a pleasant surprise, is actually kind of charming.

To me is kind of too early to tell, at least in the part of the Hanzo story I'm in (Firts mission) it seems pretty obvious that there is unlockable battle stuff. But is mainly heavy/light.

Im only two hours in but this is what I have picked up. You got a light, a heavy, and A is a dash attack with invul frames so it works as a dodge as well. no complicated inputs whatsoever, you mash lights and heavys, press A when prompt after a string of attacks for a launcher, then get into an aerial combo where you continue the process, which can last for a couple of strings midair till your back on the ground, you can continue the combo with a dash immediately into a string, which is followed by an air combo for a higher score. Frantic is a phase in which you have higher attack with lower defense, and can use ninja arts to deal full screen damage. shinobi is a phase you can choose if you don't want frantic that is more balanced and gives access to arts. Arts are unlocked with level ups. Yin is a meter that raises after successful missions with frantic enabled that lets you string light attacks more or less endlessly (giving you launcher options when using a heavy to finish a string) It also gives you more invul frames on dash and higher strength/defense. I have no idea what yang does yet but It can be looked up in the games library. Chars have the same inputs but play differently so far, Kat is my favorite because she is pretty fast and uses hand to hand. Ikaruga is noticilbly slower but has good range with her sword. Each character has unique arts.
edit: R also works as a counter incase you get trapped in an enemy combo, and can be used at all times I believe.

I thought it didn't have 3D.
Some parts of the game have it, others don't.
3D for transformations during battle, all battles are 2d. 3D during menus and the rest of the transitional stuff. It's pretty good use of it.
better than other beat em ups on the 3DS such as CoP

During tha Hanzo part, I must say that I like:
Gamplay wise: Kat
Character Wise: Ikaruga, then Asuka and Kat
Design: Ikaruga (or Asuka with a bob cut)
Finished the first chapter and I want to try the other story arc and characters but dunno if it is recommendable.

So combat frame rate. When it's good is it 30 or more like 60?
Haven't played CoP, but the framerate is pretty much fine for the actual "beat 'em up" portion of the game. At least, it seemed fine to me. It gets low during the inter-mission portions and the transformation sequences.
Frantic mode = Yin
Bare it all!
I'll go into a little more detail from way back in the day:
I haven't been touching it since you don't get a ranking for the character you do it with. I essentially have to do all these missions like six times, huh? -_-
One for each girl so that's five then the 6th cuz Frantic Mode.

I'm dying here.
didn't expect +40 coins but it's real
Platinum 2014 get~
Depending on when certain 2014 games come out I might be something ridiculous like three or four times over platinum because I only buy digitally. That being said I'll likely be just fine because there's no way all the good stuff comes out before June 1st.
This game is tits!

I'm really on the fence about getting this game. I do tend to like beat-em-ups if they're well made and it does look fun but I'm super reluctant about actually dropping the 30 bucks on an impulse buy.

Just downloaded the game, hope to play it this weekend if I can stop playing pokemon long enough.
haha, I said the same thing.

Do you like surprisingly beat em ups with lots of content?
Do you like anime tropes?
Do you like ridiculously over the top bust lines?
Do you like shockingly well written story segments?
Do you like battle damaged clothes?
If even a few of these interest you, get the game. It's certainly jam packed with content.

30. The game does drop into the sub 20's at times of pure chaos. The trasitional phases drop lower.
Edit:
Took me about an hour.

Haha, yes I do like these things. I'm considering it.
This got me.
Yeah, while mechanics in Shinovi are more sound, the stages are really short in comparison to Burst.
And indeed, Frantic mode is all or nothing. Later stages, taking any hits at all is fatal, but it feels great mowing down crowds. And once you level it high enough, you can do some insane aerial raving.
Let it be known to everyone though, that you want to level both Yin and Yang. Once both bars are maxed out, you gain access to the girl's Senran mode, which is the best of both worlds IE god mode.

I've come across codes in Gamecube games that didn't give me points. They'll be added to my library, but didn't give coins. So I think reasonable, or within the generation for boxed copies.
Yes, he said "Tits are life, ass is hometown" It's the same guy, & he is pretty open about why he made the series.
From what I remember, you unlock the
secret character(s?) on the select screen
If you didn't already, buy it for that quote alone

High praise for the year that brought you Dragon's Crown (although admittedly it's pretty much only missing the damaged clothing from your list, and your mileage may vary on DC's writing).
ah I know who those characters are. I'll keep doing what I'm doing then do Frantic later.
I would probably if I knew what the game even was. Will look into it.
