You're right. Yooka is male, Laylee is female.I thought they confirmed the chameleon was a dude and the bat was a lady. Am I wrong?

Good. I'm happy they didn't go the Nintendo route and added a pink bow, pigtails, eyelashes, nail polish and/or earrings to the bat to make sure you know she's female.You're right. Yooka is male, Laylee is female.
I wonder if Rare are looking at this and thinking that they should have done a sequel themselves rather then all those shitty kinect games.
What a fucking waste.
Hmm, now the big decision is WiiU or PS4?
Would go for Wii U because there's NO trophies, if there were a physical release of console versions... ^_^I'll be going PS4. If not for trophies alone.
Also, bear in mind that it has nothing to do with a N64 version, it's an USB key in a refurbished N64 cart. It's probably a nice collector item, and a way to show support, but it's still a bit expensive, they could have included the other things directly in this pledge...To those of you pledging £340 (£350 when you include postage) for the N64 version, bear in mind that if you pledge £20 extra, you get a t-shirt, and £35 extra will get you the t-shirt, CD soundtrack, and a signed copy of the regular DVD case version of the game.

Agreed on X1 being the worst selling but I think you're insane if you think the WiiU will outsell the PS4 version. The PS4 will have three times the installed base by the time the game comes out so there's that, and just because Banjo was on N64 doesn't mean all that audience is still on WiiU. Much of that are on PS4 or PC now (and to a lesser extent on X1).It's not that simple. The audience for this type of game is not on Xbox. I'd argue that the Xbox One version of Yooka-Laylee will be the worst selling.
PC > Wii U > PS4 > Xbone

It's not unheard of. Sonic and Rayman performed better on Wii U despite having the lowest install base. Platformers generally have longer tails on Nintendo systems.
Wii U here. It just will feel SO RIGHT.Hmm, now the big decision is WiiU or PS4?
They want to fuck the lizard. Only explanation I got.

Didn't Rayman release a whole year prior on Wii U?

In fact, *because* it may push the collect-a-thon a bit too far, I've never 100% DK64.What's wrong with trophies? For many it's the right incentive to do things they wouldn't do normally. Like for example in BK i had little incentive to collect every single fucking little thing.
Well, dozen of corporate suits with annual salaries in the hundred of thousand$ decided not to release 3D platformers on 360 for 8 years because they thought said audience wasn't there. They couldn't be wrong, could they?You can only claim that if there were 3D platformers on Xbox and if multiplatform those were the least selling SKUs, otherwise without stats this is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Is there a reason some folks are concerned with the gender of a lizard and bat in a video game?

That isn't how collectibles are supposed to work, they're supposed to give you useful (more health, better equipment..) or cool (concept art, bonus levels) stuff. Not fucking useless achievements.

You're saying it like they're mutually exclusive?

off course not but I still am pissed at how trophies/achievements ruined GTA 4.

To the discussion before over 3D platformers from Nintendo: Splatoon in single-player is a 3D platformer, it just happens to include shooting things and collecting yellow fish but level design could well have come straight from or fit right into Sunshine.
This is Dark Soul's is an JRPG all over again. Hell I even read somewhere that Sunset Overdrive is a platformer. Y'all crazy
Toad is also a psuedo-platformer in the 3D.
Doesn't this game lack a jump button?...
There is a small subgenre of platformers without player controlled jumping, I believe.Doesn't this game lack a jump button?...

What's left of Rare isn't allowed to think any more.
Comes from more Nintendo than anyone else. They have alternated in calling the main campaign a platformer and a shooter. It does have a lot of platforming from what I have seen, as well as puzzle solving.
That's bs. Especially back in the 360 days. A lot of people including me bought a 360 in hope for throwback RARE games, at least we got Kameo.
I doubt it will sell worse on the One than the U., if the U is even still alive by then

Panther chameleons like in that pic are where males are more multi coloured, but in carpet chameleons females are more multi coloured. The panther males will have a pronounced rostral process (pointy nose). It's easier to figure out gender in panther ones than other species.
Carpet chameleons:

Left: male. Right: female.
Pregnant chameleons go for darker colours to shoo away the males.
Not just colour, there are various criteria where certain species can flip the gender expectation. For example on size, male panther chameleons are bigger but in dwarf chameleons, female are. One thing generalisable seems to be spurs (outgrowths on the back feet), that if present in certain species even at birth can tell it's a male and if there is no spur then a female.

Yes. You're still effectively solving platforming puzzles, though. Which is why I said a psuedo-platformer.
There is a small subgenre of platformers without player controlled jumping, I believe.
While it may have platforming and is in 3D it isn't a 3D platformer (I know that sounds crazy). That's why I think (3D) Jump and Run is actually a better name for the genre.
