I would say it reminds me of a N64 mini game but I ran out of idea...
Anyway hype

I get a distinct Chu Chu Rocket vibe from it. I'll no doubt buy it on Friday.
Apparently the Japanese version was a bit unfinished and didn't have features like ranked battles and achivements in the game yet, hopefully they've gotten it all ready in time for this release.
That minigame was awesome. Forget Dedede's Drum Dash or Kirby Clash, I wanna see Checkerboard Chase get its own spinoff.

Apparently both this and Implosion: Never Lose Hope drop on July 6. Pretty good eShop week.

Sad to see no hype for this at all.
It's out in Europe now. Is anyone planning on making an OT?

Downloaded it, I feel I got my money's worth, it'll be fun to play more of.

Anyone tested the online? Wondering if it has Bomberman style lag.

Well, I bought it. I will report back with impressions in a bit.

We'll, it's quite 'thin' in terms of modes. Local battle (with CPU if you want) plus online battle
Online is broken, my connection is 'unstable' apparently, and disconnects after 5 second of every match. Others on Twitter seem to be having the same problem.
The game itself is fun, and I'm thinking against people in the same room will be properly salty.
If you've got people locally to play against, it'll be good, otherwise wait until the online gets fixed.

Downloaded it earlier today, was planning on just doing a few matches with a friend, but we ended up playing the entire afternoon and had a blast! Really fun game, though really, really light on packaging unfortunately. Saw that some modes will be coming soon, so here's hoping for more modes.
Doesn't seem like there will be one, if no one does I'm more than interested in making one.

So I played some more, and had about 7 consecutive games online without a disconnect, despite it blaring at me about my unstable connection.
When it works, online is lots of fun. Such an easy concept but lots of fun. Still think local multiplayer is where this will shine.
The game needs more 'meat' - stats, some sense of persistency rather than just random games. A ranking mode is promised, but there's a lot of stuff promised, which is weird. Why not just launch with it!
Anyway, it's a good game. I recommend it if you have local friends to bait.

Aha I used to friggin love battleball. Snowstorm was good too but battleball is the OG. I'm tempted to snag this now.

They released a patch recently which appears to have fixed all the problems I had with connecting online. Still not very busy online though.
