DS #0838: New Zealand Story Revolution (Europe)

[Resident0]

I love NZS on ZX Speccy...

Game of teh year!!

Wonder if it will have the old version intergrated or it will be a mashup like bubby bobs was.

I too was a huge fan of this in the ZX Spectrum. It was a hugely yellow game back then

Not many people saying what it's like. I loved the Amiga original TBH and maybe I'm seeing things through rose coloured spectacles but I would rate this as 'okay'. I loved the simplicity of the original, fewer power ups, faster gameplay, this whole spot the difference and a flying meter are amongst the things that spoil it a little for me. Thankfully it's a better conversion than Rainbow Islands though (couldn't be any worse IMO). I may dip into it every now and again 6/10...maybe.

This port is really bad.

I loved this game on Amiga and C-64. After playing this port I had to try the original arcade game with Mame which I remembered to be much better and the best verion of NZS.

This port has two major flaws. First the controls aren't responsive enough and the Kiwi moves way too slow. Secondly the level design really suck compared to original. Added touch screen elements just make the game worse.

Original also had much more different and funny weapons than this port, although I've only played this port till the first boss so I don't know if there is going to be more weapons.

It makes me mad that they make these crappy ports.

i though tiki moved too slowly until i realised that double tapping the pad in the direction you are going makes him run

and the touch screen stuff sux, thankfully there is not much of it
