Gaming The Legendary Starfy

[Domination]

im playing the japanese version ands its fun!

Good for you

I dunno any japanese so I'll wait for the US release....

If you understand Japanese you should play the entire series from 1 to 5 (1 to 3 on GBA, 4 and 5 on DS), its a great franchise I tell ya....

Weren't there monsters that looked like Starfy in Kirby platformer games?

Starfy appeared as an enemy in Super Princess Peach

Uhhhh waht has that got to do with Kirby games? Enlighten me.... Though the only star-like enemy in Kirby I can remeber is the Starman, who looks little like Starfy....

And Starfy was also an assist trophy in SSB Brawl too......

Read this cool interview with the Starfy developers: http://ds.nintendolife.com/news/2009/05/in...egendary_starfy

Apparently they are not going to release the first four games in US, unless there is a huge fan base

..... On the bright side, there may be a 6th starfy game...

Here's how I look at it:

Starfy is Nintendo's big DS release this summer, almost of all summer, until the new Link comes out.

There are a LOT of new children/moms who have DSi's or DS systems that need something to play. 1.4 MILLION people bought Rhythm Heaven. If even a third of that buy Starfy we should get the other games easily.

Luckily for Starfy, their boxart will include a giant drawing of his picture which will be a sucker for children and mothers because he's so damn lovable.

Stafy is the only platformer ever where I actually enjoy being underwater.
Yep. The controls are very tight in the Stafy games. That's one of many reasons this is such a great platformer

It _needs_ to sell well because I _need_ the previous titles in the series (the GBA ones). I played them in japanese but at a few puzzles it's very confusing when you can't read what you have to do :/

Also, only a good 2 weeks to go! yay!

(Anybody know where I can preorder this from germany? Amazon.com doesn't want to ship it to germany...)

Hopefully. The boxart does look child fantasy-like... so it will definitely be a hit.

Good luck finding it

Im going to buy off the stores in July... cos im broke now.

Hopefully Nintendo will spread it to europe, then the series is more likely to sell well and we get decent ports of the older games.

 

[cosmiccow]

I preordered it from yesasia now. Arrr.. can't wait...

 

[Domination]

Oh yeah.... update: Official English website is up!!!!

[mrfatso]

lol, for some reason that pink starfish reminds me of kirby haha

 

[Domination]

Thats his sister..... Stapy

She was a trophy in Brawl too.... Now that you mention it I do see a resemblance between her and kirby.... What did Starfy's mother do!

 

[mrfatso]

arghh, erase erase, must erase that image

 

[Kingfield]

it looks pretty good, but i really don't see what all the hype's about.

Then tell me what the hype for ace attorney, pokemon and KH is about. Its all about the franchise, the entire series of games.

Compared to those.... this game is probably nothing.....

 

[mrfatso]

probably, anyway man, i miss starfy, its been so long since i last played that, heck the only reason why i remember that game is cos of this thread, if not like many other, it would be in the abyss of my mind by now

 

[Domination]

If not for this thread? If I remember.... when i came in to update I already saw you reading the thread but it was buried deep..... You probably missed it and done a search

Anyways for american club nintendo members.... I remeber you cant get bonus coins or something..... dnno what that means: http://www.gamespot.com/ds/action/densetsu...ag=topics;title

 

[mrfatso]

did i? must have forgotten.

Anyway, don forget to update the first post with that official website link

 

[Donato_Dobango]

Club Nintendo is all kind of funked up, since I got credit for Pokemon Platinum without buying it or saying I would buy it.

I hereby wait for Starfy: Chocolate Starfish in the Hot Dog Flavored Water.
