*still gushing over Fire Emblem*
i had no idea an RPG could be THIS badass!

"The militaristic nature of the characters and setting might lead you to believe this is an action game, but it tends to lean farther into the adventure category. You do lots of exploring and sneaking, but there are times when these elements take you too far away from the act of engagement. These moments of stagnation are Snake Eater's biggest letdown. You often find yourself (particularly in the first half of the game) wondering when you'll get to do anything other than briefly avoid detection on your way to the next cutscene."

Absurd doesn't even cover it. I can almost hear the guy clamoring for an objective marker or something.

[Dracarys]

One of the reasons he reaches that conclusion may be that the game gives you a crapload of powerful guns...but you shouldn't be using any of them if you're playing it right, making them pointless.

There is this rumor about Epic Mickey 2: Power of Illusion being made for the 3DS.

The first one was a disappointment in terms of not fulfilling everything that was originally promised. But overall, it was a decent game. I believe the 2D levels would fit the 3DS nicely.

[BBboy20]

Continue that Illusion tradition.

[Pikminister]

Oh, that would be amazing if true...

"Epic Mickey 3DS is a follow-up to Castle of Illusion"

YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES...

Hold up... YES. Okay, I'm finished.

More info from the latest issue of Nintendo Power regarding Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion on 3DS has just emerged. The DreamRift-developed title ties in not only to the original Epic Mickey but also to the f*ck-awesome Castle of Illusion on Sega Genesis. As with the Genesis game, it'll be a side-scroller with the Queen from Snow White as the main antagonist. On top of that, each level will be based on a Disney animated film from Sleeping Beauty to even Tangled, characters (such as Scrooge McDuck) will take residence in Mickey's home base à la the Suikoden series, and the game will feature hand-drawn sprites with extensive parallax scrolling backgrounds.

Yeah, the home console versions can officially kiss the fattest part of my ass.

I can't believe it.... it isn't April 1st is it?

WOW. WOWEE. WOW.

This... I mean... oh god...

Mmm.. Hand drawn sprites and parallax backgrounds. Can't wait to see the game in person. 2D games in 3D look fantastic!

Sorry to break your Epic Mickeyness, but I've wondering about this:

Capcom, Namco-Bandai AND Sega? Sounds like a new crossover fighter to me...

Can't wait to see a 3D trailer on the 3DS.

i found out a few things about the 3DS fire emblem. its going to play a lot like sacred stones (which in my opinion was the best game in the series)
and there are 3 main heros this time around. a sword wielding guy, a lance girl, and a customizable unit (thats you) a physical/magic mixed class that can equip swords and magic attacks.
I'm very exited ^^
the only thing that bothers me is the art style.. :| was the guys drawing it on LSD?

ohh! and there are going to be downloadable spotpass characters too! Innes the badass sniper is is one of them

[Canas Renvall]

Wait, Innes is gonna be in it as DLC?

That's pretty cool. Except he was preeeeetty average in FE8. *hipster scarf flip* Neimi anyday, thank you very much. She was just untouchable as a Ranger. Also swords.

But by pure speed, Wil from FE 7 > pretty much all archer classes in either game.
