Adventure Time (DS, 3DS) will be like Zelda 2

Cosmic Owl is awesome

Cant wait, huge fan of Adventure Time.
Needs more Mad Tart Toter and Gunter.
The full article in Nintendo Power has an interview with Pendleton Ward in which we learn the secret origin of the Cosmic Owl. The truth will shock you!

Why am I thinking the cosmic owl originates from OoT's owl? XD
 
Does anybody know if a 3DS game physically can be region free? Or is it the 3DS console that blocks it? Just curious since I'm pretty sure some 360 shmups from Japan are region free too despite being on a region locked console. Is it on an individual basis completely down to the discretion of the developer or do Nintendo override that? I'm not expecting anything here, I'm just wondering.

Soo getting this on 3DS if it comes to Pal land.

I just found out the other day they sell it as a 24 inch toy, I kind of (read: really) want to buy it

I have the large Finn toy which has the sword as an accessory; though, obviously, it's not 24 inches. I think it's like 10 inches or maybe 12, something in that range.

Oh, I could understand if it would bother someone. You're right, it is iconic. I just hope there's some choices.

If it's like Zelda 2, I mean, I could see them maybe adding in those types of choices on top of the format. It would make sense.

You and 2/3rds of the people drawing fanart.

Well, because it was said that there used to be something between them in the Mathematical! videos. So, naturally, people began to believe it was true - even if they didn't notice the obvious subtext. Then Cartoon Network was like "OH TEH NOS WE DO NOT ENDORSE GAY RELATIONSHIPS IN OUR KID SHOWS, GAYS ARE RATED AO" and pussed out and fired the guy.

Ooooo yeah I remember that. I'm so used to most shipping being about who looks hottest together.

Havent watched those, but from that 'im your problem' song its pretty clear that theres something going on.

Im not a guy that watches cartoons besides the simpsons but Adventure Time is really really good.

Finding out there are people that dislike Zelda II is a shock to my system.

Zelda II is one of the best games ever but I completely understand some people disliking it.

-It is hard as shit (not everyone enjoys such high difficulty)
-People expecting a "Zelda" game may be disappointed that the game is not like others that they have played in the series and give up after ten minutes

fired the guy.

I don't believe he was employed by them. The Frederator blog just linked to his videos since he (she?) was consistent with updates and they were pretty good. Correct me if I'm wrong.

But drawing straightforward (heh) conclusions on what was supposed to be an unspoken possible relationship between the two girls and directly implying that it was homosexual in nature (rather than letting the audience draw their own conclusions... I mean, they could just be former pals going through a rough patch) kinda crossed the line.

oh maybe you're right, I just remembered that got him to stop doing the videos, and since I thought he was employed by them, assumed he was fired.

But I don't think it crossed the line at all. The audience can still draw their own conclusions.

I hope this game has a lot of little random sidequests, would fit in well with the nature of the show.

You could probably make an Adventure Time game that was based solely on doing sidequests for the people of Ooo

Yeah
This game would be epic if it were an rpg with all of the sidequests, story arcs and whatnot
 
Whattaya think of them apples, Zelda 2 haters, HUH?! Game looks great.

Edit: Just remembered that I was thinkng recently a Regular Show game could be all kinds of awesome. Imagine all the missions and "quests" both in and outside of the Park not to mention the endless potential for crazy epic bosses.

Finn to short key guardian guy: "Uh...why are you wearing that little devil costume?"

Game looks great. I just can't fathom why they chose to make the comparison to what might be the most forgettable Zelda title in the whole lineup.

I'll just see it as an apt comparison made and disregard what may very well be my own childhood stigma.

Makes sense. Adventure Time has always struck me as largely inspired by old-school adventure and RPG titles. The art isn't very good, though. They are trying to emulate the series pitch-perfect, but the lack of pixels on Nintendo handhelds makes it fail.

How long have you been alive? It's widely cited as the worst Zelda. However, that may have been before some hatred was absorbed by the Wii and DS titles.

I think Princess Cookies is an even more interesting story about this issue. Really love the ending to that one.

Here's hoping for a section ingame featuring these two:

Okay, what do you consider memorable? If you say Donkey Kong Country, for instance, I will punch your face.

It's about damn time more Zelda 2-alikes hit the scene. Such an underrated game. Can't wait to get my hands on this. In WayForward we trust.

True. Fans will always speculate about these stuff and creators will always tease, but he shouldn't have made his opinion sound like it was the word of god.
