"Chris Carla said he wonders where we will see battletoads next "

Small teaser clip

 

[LiK]

Excited, I guess?

 

[brandonh83]

Pretty obvious, but cool nonetheless.

 

[petghost]

somebody has to tell gamestop. The prophecy has come to fruition.

 

[Hatchtag]

But will there be Banjo?

 

[Sawneeks]

I would be surprised if a new Battletoads wasn't announced at this point.

 

[EBE]

fuck battletoads. tease this before literally any other Rare IP?

 

[H3xum]

Wait. When is shovel knight coming out.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Wonder how it will work as a full fledged game? Maybe as a downloadable release like the classic side scrolling beat em up.

 

[Reg]

 

[Tregard]

Battletoads before Banjo is criminal.

 

[Hero of Legend]

So we have Battletoads for MS and Kratos for Sony. Wonder if Nintendo will let them add a character for the Wii U and 3DS versions.

 

[Ingueferroque]

This is cool.

 

[outunderthestars]

That is good news for the dozen or so people who like Battletoads.

 

[CalamityPixel]

I can't believe I live in a time where the Battletoads are returning.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

LET'S GET WARTY

 

[Askherserenity]

So Kratos to PS4 and Battletoads to the One. What will Nintendo get!? Excited to find out what PC and Nintendo get! I want all the versions of Shovel Knight now.

 

[nynt9]

Congratulations to Microsoft for capitalizing on a brand they built and fostered over the years.

...heh.

Spoiler

I don't even remember where this joke is from

 

[MauroNL]

I expected Master Chief

Spoiler

but this will do I guess

If that's the case, the fan base must have doubled in recent years.

This poster must not have been alive before the SNES was released.

 

[Devilgunman]

People want a new Battletoads? I played it a lot back in the day and you know what? Fuck that game.

 

[outunderthestars]

If that's the case, the fan base must have doubled in recent years.

It's a console exclusive so I factored in six or so to account for people who will pretend to like it to win console war arguments.

 

[Lothar]

I do. Why wouldn't you? It was a great game, one of the best platformers on NES.

 

[Pacote-san]

What do you guys mean by that?

Will be DLC content for Shovel Knight?

 

[Devilgunman]

I do. Why wouldn't you? It was a great game, one of the best platformers on NES.

I wouldn't call it great. It's a good game with insane amount of frustration.

 

[outunderthestars]

This poster must not have been alive before the SNES was released.

No. I was old enough back then to recognize that it was a shitty game.

 

[Lothar]

No. I was old enough back then to recognize that it was a shitty game.

It was an enormously popular game when it came out and calling it shitty is a pretty stupid thing to say.

 

[Lambtron]

Triple dipping!

 

[ChosenPredator]

(and damn this first page is mega negative lol)

 

[Doug Heffernan]

It's happening!

 

[Brian_FETO]

Did they show any screenshots? Curious to see if they're a boss or playable

(I'd assume they're a boss because of Kratos, but who knows)

If they're making a new one, hopefully they go all in with the 90's cheese/edge and over the top violence. I fear that they'll make this ugly Dreamworks-ish sidescroller based on the Battletoads pic from Kinect Sports Rivals (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=797795)

EDIT: Well there it is

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

(and damn this first page is mega negative lol)

Radical!

 

[thefro]

This is the art the Yacht Club folks put on Twitter

 

[alr1ght]

So, will they change their names? Rash, Pimple, and Zitz screams bad 90s cool humor.

 

[Dynomutt]

So Kratos to PS4 and Battletoads to the One. What will Nintendo get!? Excited to find out what PC and Nintendo get! I want all the versions of Shovel Knight now.

Nintendo: Mario All-Stars.

PC: Bill Gates, Steve Ballmer, and Phil Spencer.

 

[The Jackdog]

ill take a new battletoads

 

[Piston Hyundai]

(and damn this first page is mega negative lol)

really curious if people are going to "realize" that banjo was bad all along if microsoft announces three-ie

(not that battletoads or banjo are fantastic games in my opinion to begin with, but you get what I'm saying)

 

[kadotsu]

MS could have a great future. Meme games are the fastest growing genre right after PewDieBait.

This x10000. This resume ms games division...

 

[JimJamJones]

Hype.

 

[Ape]

Battletoads before Banjo is criminal.

? this game is coming out before the new BK?

 

[Roto13]

Waluigi or something, I guess, since they're apparently going for the worst character each company has the rights to.

 

[Mr. Giggles]

I do. Why wouldn't you? It was a great game, one of the best platformers on NES.

It was ok, but the one of the best on the NES? I dunno

 

[Z3M0G]

Why does my brain see this as constantly zooming in?

 

[evilromero]

I do. Why wouldn't you? It was a great game, one of the best platformers on NES.

I thought it was ok. Way too hard even when I was younger and more patient. The sequels all looked silly too me.

 

[Kacho]

(and damn this first page is mega negative lol)

Dude this is badass looking! Zitz, Rash, and Pimple are comin' for y'all.

 

[Brofield]

Goddamn, super jealous.

If I ever get an Xbone I'm definitely double dipping.
