I would say Andy actually has a chance for the Fighter 11 spot now that.
Yep, that was confirmed.
Yep, Wayforward doing this is fine because their style of animation fits the Advance Wars style. Should we get a new game, I have no doubt it would be coming from IntSys themselves.
Oh trust me, i'm a huge fan of StarTropics. I hope it gets it's chance one day. Those games were great on the Wii U VC.
Ura
for keeping the dream alive every step of the way. Big respect to you my friend. Here's hoping Nintendo keeps this up and we can get remakes and new installments in other fan favorite dormant franchises
Same, both franchises deserve to return.
Thanks! Here's hoping Golden Sun gets the remake treatment in 2022 as well!The mad lads actually DID IT!!! And it's a full Switch game and not a mobile game too! Major props to
Well, that explains everything.
Yep, good catch. I wonder if there will be a feature to use Super CO Powers in the AW1 Campaign? Just brainstorming some possibilities here, can't wait to hear more about this game.
I don't think that they'll add SCOP to the AW1 maps. That would fundamentally change how the maps play, which is not something you want in a remaster/remake, and frankly I doubt Wayforward has the resources or in-house know-how to revamp all the maps across Campaign/Hard Campaign to account for this; not a knock on them, it's simply not their area of expertise.
Yeah, I mean Wayforward doesn't develop DLC for anything unless it's crowdfunded, let alone this.
I'll definitely have to check my local retailer, you never know.
True true, I was just thinking up some ideas.
Well, if there happens to be a physical release available i'll buy it. I just haven't seen any listings, not even on Nintendo's website. I never really double dip in buying games but this is the exception.
I think I'm starting to feel things for Neil...
That wink is really cute. I can't wait to see the cut-ins for the rest of the cast. These ooze that classic AW charm!
Yeah ngl, those animations are pretty sick. Still kinda salty that Andy doesn't have his signature peace sign taunt in his victory animation. Hopefully that's fixed foe the final release lol.
Speaking of which, they really up'd the kawaii factor for Sami & Nell eh?
Yeah, that's an interesting point! Nell is interesting, she changes a lot from game to game aesthetically (perhaps more than most!) I think in AW1 she does come across as pretty young and cute, while in AW2 and AW3 they push her in more of a serious, "businesslike" direction. It looks like they're not necessarily adopting a uniform conformity to the AW1 or AW2 portraits (which I think is wise), as evidenced by the fact that Olaf is in his (much better) AW2 outfit, while Nell feels more like AW1 Nell. It will be interesting to see which outfit they go with for other COs whose portraits change noticeably from AW1 to AW2; Sonja comes to mind.
Interestingly, in the Treehouse stream Eagle's CO Power has the name "Lightning Drive," the name of his regular CO Power from AW2, during gameplay footage of an AW1 map (and in the Treehouse footage this power has the extra turn mechanic). In both AW1 and AW2, however, the CO Power that gives some units an extra turn is called "Lightning Strike" (and "Lightning Drive" is for the power that doesn't give an extra turn).
Yeah, the balance question is an interesting one. I figure they probably shouldn't tinker with anything since it could throw off the balance of campaign maps. With that said, I certainly wouldn't mind if they gave Sonja her AWDS buff here, haha (and will she have her AW2 buffs in the AW1 campaign?)
To be fair, they'd also done the same for Advance Wars.
To me, Nell has always been kinda adult-like right from AW1. I think this game just really up'd the kawaii factor to her and made her look younger.
Yeah, I have no idea what that means for the final release or if it will be changed before then. Either this is an error on their part or something funky is going down with the implementation of CO Powers in this game. Also,
RamOne
pointed out how Nell is able to use her CO Power in Field Training when that wasn't the case in the original.DNeon my boy! You're finally back after years of being gone. Welcome back my dude!
Well, you might say we're all in agreement when it comes to this haha. I do think there's a chance and part of me believes Andy as Fighter 11 could be announced alongside the Japanese release date for this game.
I mean, it depends. If we get banger tracks for each CO Power/CO Super Power, I wouldn't mind TBH. Maybe Andy could retain the default CO Power themes while the other CO's get their own unique themes. I'm just throwing ideas out, there's so much to this game that we just don't know about.
True, but that brings up the question of what they intend to do for VS mode when it comes to which stats for the CO's are used in that mode.
Here's hoping this game does very well so IntSys changes it's mind on AW. Or maybe they figured out how to incorporate relationship mechanics for their next game and these remakes are a test to see if AW is profitable enough for a full-blown new game with a bigger budget.To be fair, they'd also done the same for Advance Wars.
Nothing on AW2 CO's yet which is interesting. Nor is there anything on Sturm, methinks they're going to keep him a secret until the game launches or have him teased in the launch trailer.
I know you're trying to make a joke, but given how important of a month December is (holiday season and all that), somebody's gonna get a confidence boost eventually...
I find it interesting that AW is Ninty's holiday release until further notice, even if Andy probably ultimately isn't in the cards for Ultimate.
To be fair, Nintendo only has one game release in December if, at all. It's not every year that they release games in that month.
Hey don't be quick to rule out Andy. As I mentioned before, they could very well be saving the Japanese release date for the September Direct and possibly reveal him as Fighter 11 to drum up interest over there. And it adds up because it gives people a reason to care about AW in Nintendo's domestic market.
I haven't seen AI comparisons specifically, but the guy playing on the treehouse straight up cheeses at one point by baiting with an APC, confident it will be targeted while the people on commentary suggest he's left himself open.
