This is how you do a retro 8 bit update for current gen. One of the best examples I've seen of keeping the 8 bit spirit in the modern day.
I'm gonna wait for reviews / impressions. The game looks really slow and boring to me honestly, but I'm staying open minded about it. The price is low enough that I'm down to take a reasonable risk.Yeah, while I'm definitely buying this, I'm very, very skeptical.
Blaster Master Zero MissionNot quite. From what Matt Papa of IntiCreates has said, this is something of a part remake, part reimagining. Which a lot of stuff is definitely taken from the original game, it goes off in new directions very quickly. We'll see just how extensive the differences are in a few days.
Did you not play the original US version? A kid and their favorite animal was a big part of theming.
Okay, I will disagree with these opinions. ZX Advent is one of my favorite Mega Man games, and I really enjoyed Gunvolt. It has a few problems, but Gunvolt is really fun to control.
You also messed up your chronology: MM 9 and 10 were made after ZX and ZX Advent. Mighty No 9 was a disappointment, sure, but I think Comcept deserves a huge chunk of the blame on that one.
Polygon has 16 minutes of footage from the game http://www.polygon.com/2017/2/28/14773444/blaster-master-zero-switch-video-preview-gameplay
Not a fan of the game-interrupting dialogue, but otherwise, that looked solid.
Well, 16-bit. It's more like they made a 16-bit Blaster Master arcade game than an 8-bit game.This is how you do a retro 8 bit update for current gen. One of the best examples I've seen of keeping the 8 bit spirit in the modern day.
Is this supposed to be mimicking 8-bit or 16-bit games?

Is this a remake or sequel?
Over/under on Metroid-themed DLC?
Love the sidescrolling parts of the trailer but not so sure about the top down stuff. And the cutscenes... not a fan.
Still, the price does invite impulse buy.
The top down stuff are actualy fun. They feel like dungeon.
At work so I just skimmed the trailer but it seemed kinda off to me somehow.(not just the zoom in) If I can take your comment as that you have played the game, then I hope you are right.
I think I will take the plunge on this one.

Same reasons why Double Dragon 4 is not on WiiU/Switch/3DS.
Is this Switch exclusive?
