*sigh* I had forgotten about this... Is it even announced yet? The show is broadcast on several European countries, but I don't think it's "big" on any of them.

Worst case scenario, at least the DS version is region free.

But yeah I feels you man

Wasn't there already an iOS game of RS? It's a beat'em up.

Yeah, but I don't consider it a beat'em up. Rows of zombies are coming after you and you throw various items at them to kill them. You also get power ups in the form of other characters from the show. Fun game, but not much to it.

Why would you do that? · Jul 2, 2012

Yet another thing from that WayForward interview featured today:

http://www.nintendojo.com/features/interviews/e3-2012-interview-with-wayforward

ND: Was [a top-down game development approach] the case with the Adventure Time video game?

Voldi: That one was actually very collaborative with [Adventure Time creator] Pendleton Ward because he had been tweeting about game designs forever, you know, like, Oh I want it to be Zelda meets, you know, whatever, so that one was very collaborative. And he actually has really good gameplay sensibilities too, you know, but he and Matt Bozon would just go on these sprees where they would just kind of work out what was happening. So yeah, that ones been pretty fun. I wouldnt say that one was as bottom-up. That one, he had come up with a story, like the garbage stealing thing, and he probably drew it on a napkin. I dont know actually. Hes so funny because almost any email he sends theres a picture attached, like some little sketch of, you know, Finn doing a thumbs up or something.

In other words, instead of WayForward's typical work-for-hire games where they have a story, a setting, etc. and design a game around it, here they design the game first, then added the story. Plus, it's being worked closely with the Adventure Time creator himself, who seems cool, I guess. lol.

Skilletor · Jul 2, 2012

Was going to buy this on DS because of XL. I will now get it on 3DS because of XL.

Looks frikking great!

Adventure Time is so amazing. Was hoping it would be like Zelda. This isn't the Zelda I was hoping for, but it's something.

ThatStupidLion · Jul 2, 2012

first game to make me want a 3ds. ( i dont have a ds)

pirata · Jul 2, 2012

Man, this makes me want a really good Phineas and Ferb game.

abstract alien · Jul 2, 2012

WayForward is on this? Why didn't you say so before!? Auto purchased.

leroidys · Jul 2, 2012

Is the only difference between the two versions the 3D effect?

Oooooh, that could use a LOT the touch screen, just to invent everything you have in the head.

...And now I've even figured out the best developers for something like it, 5th Cell, but they're with WB now

Mathematical!

Note to self: do not make ass of self when meeting P. Ward to give gratitude at Comic Con.

Etzer · Jul 2, 2012

I need this game.

leroidys said:

Maybe the 3DS version has animated cutscenes?

I can only dream...

Count me in. Zelda 2 is my favorite Zelda game.

I've never watched this show. I always see .gif's from the show that make me wonder, "what the fuck?"

You should. It's quality. I mean, mathematical quality.

Psxphile · Jul 2, 2012

Zelda II? Bought.

If Finn dies, does the Lich return?

Jason's Ultimatum · Jul 2, 2012

Would've been cool if we got a Paper Mario rpg style of show.

TheCongressman1 · Jul 2, 2012

Zelda fricking II love, by the video game of my favorite cartoon no less! I LOVE THIS!

Give it a shot. The episodes are only 11 minutes long. And I'd recommend something from the 2nd season as I feel that's where the show peaked (not to say it's not still good).

Seraphinianus · Jul 2, 2012

Please have a difficulty option to make it as hard as Zelda II!

The second season does seem to be the strongest, but yeah, it's still absolutely great in the 4th.

PixyJunket · Jul 2, 2012

This is too perfect for words.

Lijik said:
Some kind of bizarre retro game challenge clone is the first thing that springs to mind

I like this. It's a lot better than the beat 'em up idea, which is kind of an overplayed generic "safe" genre for licensed games to do.

Mr. F · Jul 2, 2012

Stoked for this. I was afraid the show was going to wear out its welcome but it keeps getting better and better with each season.

Way Forward is on a roll today.

Edit: Here are the screenshots from Nintendo Everything.

oh.

my.

GLOB.

I am so fucking getting this game with the "will be like Zelda 2" info on top.

Adventure Time = rad
Zelda 2 = rad
Adventure Time + Zelda 2 = ???

bjork · Jul 2, 2012

Zelda 2 is the best Zelda.

More games should try and emulate its style.

Solid Amit · Jul 2, 2012

Looks so awesome. The design is great.

The sprite work is amazing. I can't wait to see this bad boy in 3D glory.

Alchemy · Jul 2, 2012

I'm in for two. I still want them to do a full 3D open world Adventure Time game that re-purposes the episodes of the series as quests, but I'll take this.

shadyspace · Jul 2, 2012

I really like when Princess Bubblegum says, "ya butt!"

Slime · Jul 2, 2012

I don't even watch this show, but I need this game. Looks beautiful and I've been craving a new take on Zelda II for a while.

Adventure Time like something that I should love and cherish but I can't get into it for some reason.

Show is overrated and tries too hard sometimes. Watch Regular Show instead.

Weird, that description sounds more appropriate for Regular Show.

Best subtitle for a video game ever?

Nah RS is still good. AT has peaked a long time ago. It's a decent show still though.

I like them both. I just said more fitting. Opinions and whatnot, you know.

Keru_Shiri · Jul 2, 2012

I'm happy to see so much Zelda II love here on GAF. I just recently downloaded Zelda II on VC and the game finally "clicked" with me, now I'm in love. The game is still hard as balls though.

Adventure Time is one of those shows that I've been meaning to get into since I really enjoyed what few episodes I've caught, so I'll probably pick this up if the impressions are positive.

What a swell-looking article! I can't wait to read the whole thing when I buy my issue of Nintendo Power! I think we should all buy a copy!

If I could buy the magazine in Australia Phil I would, I would.

I haven't watched nearly as much Adventure Time as I should (only the first episode) but what I've watched I've loved and this looks amazing, will be all over this.

Still my favourite scene and continues to make me giggle.

Aw man, now you know how that other guy who got beat by Alexander Graham Bell feels

Alexios · Jul 2, 2012

Sweet that it will have top down parts and quests, they're not just hyping slight bits of RPG-like progressions, heart increases, etc.

Shame there are no screens of those bits.

We have enough of about every other type of Zelda. We don't have enough Zelda 2.
