I prefare the methodical gameplay of the flying sections of Star Fox 64 better than the flying sections of Kid Icarus.
Dont get me wrong, the setpieces, movement in all direction and backgrounds are amazing (and the music going with the movement just like in a movie), but theres little more than shot all the shit that comes to your face.
However I fucking love the ground sections now, and in my replays are the most fun I have in the levels, its very tactical but you also have to be fast, and depending of the weapon the gameplay changes completly.

If anybody wants to play some online, add me. And if you don't want to, you can still add me, just let me know:

So Ancient Staff has ephemeral sustained shots. That's cool. I wish I knew that earlier, because it seems to clean up in flight practice (but mine is too weak to be viable in missions and I can't forge any right now). Anyone try it out in online?
The whole game is one subtle loot brothel, and it's gotta be my favorite loot system hitherto. Everything works harmoniously. Even multi-player seems to balance itself because the drops I get always aid me, whether through fusion or usage. It's a fantastic assortment of hooks and incentives.
The controls without the stand aren't bad at all. I've played all of my online matches without it. The stand is more comfortable, though.

God every time I think about this game I get this huge grin on my face. Its not just a fantastic game, it feels like the most ambitious innovative game Nintendo's put out since Super Mario Galaxy
Foiled again :-[
In all seriousness I have found this game to be extremely balanced so far, though I admit I haven't played too much multiplayer. Every time I try to come up with something broken I have to give up something valuable, like self-healing.

Offering hearts to Palutena does actually bring her closer, right? I haven't tried myself, I don't have enough to spare for that sort of thing, but if it does then there must be an "end" to how much you can offer.
But what could it get? I wonder if it affects the game in anyway, like increases loot chance or something quite subtle.

I wish you could level up the weapon you use in missions. unless I am missing something
I am waiting to hit 100,000+ heart now to buy something over 300 value
not playing multi enough although I know people get great weapons there

I'm really surprised and impressed by this game but, man, it's really just not comfortable to play for long sessions (even using the stand). The stylus digs into my finger and it doesn't feel great holding the system. I've started using the face buttons for targeting while running around on foot even.
Really, now, this game is just Sin and Punishment with Kid Icarus. It could be done easily with analog sticks without sacrificing much.
Honestly, I think it would play better with the Wii-mote or Move controller. This would have been a perfect Wii title but it makes more sense to release it on the 3DS (from a market standpoint).

This soundtrack... seriously Nintendo, either it put up on NA & EU Club Nintendo or put the damn thing up for sale

Stupid Club Nintendo survey keeps on getting stuck on Step 2 still. Anybody manage to get around that, and if so, how?
Accept no sacrifice. Honestly. Really. Whatever. This is the way the game is meant to be played.

Im a fucking beast in mutliplayer.
I can't find it now, but someone posted yesterday about some kind of Java issue.
Where is this free roaming ground mission on Sin & Punishment? I think only mouse can match the speed of this mayhem. Dual analog sticks will definitely sacrifice this. You can't do 180 turn in mere instant with dual analog. I have that quickturn mapped to my down on dpad in KI even.
Shoot, I might as well sell them off. With this game in my possession, all I really need now is my PC, Vita and my beautiful beautiful 3DS!
Same thing keeps happening to me.
Someone said, in this thread I believe, IE fixes the issue... maybe. Haven't tried myself.

Does anyone else find it irritating that Palutena has the same VA as Lightning from FFXIII? It breaks immersion a bit for me...
No because Lightning is a whiney boy and Palutena is a whimsical sarcastic god.
I didn't even realize it was the same person. Then again I turned FF13 off after about 4 hours.
No different than an actor having a role in two movies.

No because she is also liara.

I know exactly what you mean. In one game, she was spewing jokes after jokes in a parody of a game. Then you heard her in Kid Icarus next, man, that threw me out.
By the goddess....

Maybe it's because I listened to her being a though, super serious bitch in FFXIII for 60 hours and now she's cracking one joke after another in Kid Icarus, that's a huge contrast.

Hahaha, I love getting out of some awesome matches in multiplayer and 10 achivements unlocking at the same time.
Yep, that's what worked for me.
Played the first two chapters today. I really like it, the reticle sensitivity needed tweaking but once I did that it was smooth to play and caused me no problems. Astonishingly the dialogue in the game is excellent, great banter between the characters and it gives the game a unique atmosphere. It's nice that all the Sakurai touches have carried over as well, there's loads of content. It's a great fusion of Starfox 64 and Sin and Punishment with the polish of Smash Bros.

Welp, too late to even try that out. Says the game has already been registered.

I ran into that too and panicked for a few seconds. Just give it a some time and the survey should show up on your to-do's. Or at least, I think that's what happened.

Question about the achievement picture. Is there more than 1?
There are people playing and enjoying the game with ABXY to move and the circle pad to aim, or even aiming with ABXY. It would play fine with dual analog sticks.
This whole controls thing is stupid. Here, let me have the last word on it: The controls aren't broken, you can adjust if you give them a chance, and it would be crazy to miss out on the rest of this fantastic game because you don't like them. However, Nintendo really should have included a dual analog CPP option, because there are people who would have preferred to play like that.
There, that's it, the end, that's all that needs to be said on the matter.
