That bit took me far too long to get. Did the game say how to do that, and I missed it?
Yep, the game tells you you have to do that on the bottom left of the screen where the tutorials show up, but it can can be turned off by holding L, so maybe that's what happened for you.

Finally able to get access to youtube and watch the source of those gifs I've been staring at all day.
Holy Shit Saur!
Should have put "The best" before "system breakdown".
Anybody still having control issues even with all the "tutorial vids out there"?
I'm in NA so I'm left to oogle at demos and threads.
And I'm talking about the gamepad/stick not being responsive.
A view of the reviewers (and cautious GAF members) made it seem like the controls work 70% of the time.
Just looking for any type of confirmation on whether it's the controls or if it's just players not adapting well enough, so I know what to expect on Day 30(Day 1 for NA)
forgive me if this has been asked before

So the 30% discount is only if you downloaded Pikmin 3, not if you bought it retail?
Kinda lame
And if you downloaded Pikmin in the eshop first no retailer will give you 30% discount on TW101 just because of that. Godammit Nintendo!
Didn't notice this in any other playthroughs, but Alfheims are back. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=Qcv6HfHb1N4#t=1502
After reading more responses to the thread, it honestly sounds like one of your guys got stuck by almost falling off and being unable to return. I would have tried cancelling the morph, doing something like Unite Spring to try and group everyone together, and tried again. Otherwise, it was a strange bug because you had 97 out of 100 when that stage gives out extra people in specific batches.
Uniiiite Thanks!
Yay! Wonder Riki is proud!
Was the hero's march song always there as the background music for the trailer's first portion? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNefE89DZds&list=TLBVndY-lZ600
I felt like bumping the trailer thread but I felt like there wasn't much of a need.

Wonder Red is immune to fire as long as his morph is active. All it takes is a carefully timed double jump.
Yeah it was there. And damn that trailer just makes me want the game so much more now.
I hate waiting!

The way you're constantly in action, under attack, or trying to defend something WHILE getting ravaged by hordes of foes, WHILE something or someone is about to crash somewhere... Each mission is like non-stop tension, and the game punishes you real hard if you're not focused.
Like , you think you're doing pretty good and then BAM! surprise, panic time, and then game over. I've had my share of that so far.
Also, I've had mostly no issues drawing shape (using mostly the joystick, which i funny because I thought from the demo that I would be using the touchscreen more), but when I did have issues, it was clear to me that this was when I was too tense, and lacked focus. I actually took the time to train myself to draw the shapes by repeating them over and over, until I saw clearly what defined the optimal shape for each morph.
There has been so far only one really frustrating moment for me on mission 003 I think (
), but so far (8 hours in), this has been one hell of a roller coaster, and a truly awesome ride, and I can't wait to see more (of me getting my ass handed to me).

Do the characters talk throughout each level?
The demo was strangely silent mostly, whereas all the trailers made it seem like it'd be like Kid Icarus where everyone's always talking...which is something I really enjoy, actually, if the game has good writing and voice acting, which this one seems like it'll nail.
Actually, is it me, or has Nintendo of all people really been on it when it comes to proper voice acting in their games? Fire Emblem was really good too. We've come a long way since the Mario Sunshine days, I'd actually like to see another talky Mario from Nintendo with mainstream voice actors.

I think Kamiya said on twitter he chose the voice actors, but maybe I don't recall correctly. It has Gideon Emery/Balthier voicing the colonel Nelson, so it's instant win for me.
Characters talk during some levels while you're still playing and it's sometimes annoying since it takes a lot of screen space.

Haven't noticed any dialogue happening during gameplay so far. I guess they choosed to expose the story through cutscenes mostly.
Shahadan >>> Ah, yes, could be. I guess I was a bit too focused to notice , but I see what you're refering to.

I love this so damn much. Just need the English version now too.
I'm stuck in the demo mission (post-demo content).
Game hasn't clicked yet, completely. I'm still very overwhelmed. Also, I'm getting enemies that hide in a corner and rush at me from off-screen...
At the part with the big helm, how do you use it against the air raid? I am not getting any button prompts. I tried using the hand, sword, sending my guys inside, like with the toilets etc.

Does anyone know who the voice actor for Wonder Yellow is? 'Cause he sure as hell sounds like Vlad from Magicka, which is completely fantastic.

He's J.B. Blanc.
This game!!
I mixed the platinum card (30 of each space veggie) and bought the Unite Charge Block (800k, most expensive one). I can now charge up my Unite Morph with holding A instead of drawing a bigger Liner. Still need to take it out for a test drive, but FFXIV is calling me.
Soon baby soon.
The action setpieces are great, also DAT Wonder Pink!

I've been playing for a couple of hours and I'm completely in love. Makes so much difference having played the demo and knowing generally what to expect in terms of mechanics, as I definitely found the demo a bit confusing initially.
It really is such a Platinum/Kamiya game - fun, deep, inventive, addictive. Love the boss battles too, not just the regular ones, but the multi-sectioned ones with QTE's etc.

Kamiya sure loves his Gradius.
And it looks just like a Superscope!I love how, if you draw a big enough pistol-symbol, it turns into a bazooka!
I'm at operation 4 and all I have to say is that the game is craaaaazy.
Unite Charge is awesome. When you hold the A button your Unite morph becomes bigger at the cost of 1 Unite Gauge. I can now switch my weapons more easier, so the pistol turns into a bazooka when you hold the A button to charge it. It becomes much easier to deal heavy damage that way. Also bought the Speed Liner so I can draw lines faster too. Gonna try the combos from the Saur video, to practice.
This game will be the tits if you get all the upgrades, definitely will complete the game multiple times on harder difficulties and get everything possible.
Also these Operations (levels, you get Operation 1-A,B and C, with C usually being an epic Boss Fight) are quite long, I like it. And soo much fun. Currently at Op.3.
I can't believe my Top 5 this year has 3 Wii U games so far. MH3U, Pikmin 3 and W101.

Unfortunately I haven't gotten around to playing my copy of the game yet. Been awfully busy with work, studies and family matters. But I'm finally ready to dig in at the end of this day.
