This promo from Skittles might get you over the hump (or at least allow you to move your save file to your local HDD).
That call to Storm City is made of win. Fantastically awkward on both ends. I love it.
Great blog! Definitely love some of your picks as well. Also, Kirby Triple Deluxe really is great. I'm also playing that and enjoying it quite a bit so far.
You're definitely right there. If you've played Mario Golf, you've played Hot Shots golf. Basically the same game with a different coat of paint. Though Mario Golf is a bit zanier due to the Mario influence, which I think makes it a bit more interesting.
It definitely helps that Nintendo is selling the game a little cheaper, but the actual product does feel like it's missing something without that content in there. It's not the end of the world, and quite frankly, if all of the DLC was on the cart from the get-go, I probably would've awarded the game an extra half star at most.
Regardless of that particular facet of the game, it's still a great title and a worthy purchase. Despite my complaints, I'll probably take the plunge on the DLC because I'm sure it's worth it.
Well, can't argue with more Souls. Didn't want to buy a PS4, but this will make me do it. Damn you Sony/From.
Absolutely, I adore the game. Me and my brothers used to play it all the time as kids and eventually Chessa got me my own cart for Christmas one year.
I'd love to see Nintendo make a sequel as well or even just up port the original to Wii U or 3DS. It's a game that is almost guaranteed to be a hit, I'm guessing most people just haven't heard of it.
I wish Nintendo would just drop the Mario moniker and expand the series out to the whole Nintendo line, like Smash Bros. It would be a lot more fun to see them draw from their many series than simply continue to rehash the same characters game after game.
Kirby's Dream Course 2... my god, Nintendo, make this happen.
