Heard it was bad I was just asking if they were just talking a bunch of trash

I guess it is bad if you payed 40$ for it since it is so short,but if you pirate I liked the game personally. It's not as good as 3d land but it's pretty fun.
 
Right now most 3DS only platformers are pretty awful. I like Gunman Clive although. Kirby Triple Deluxe was awesome, and the "true last boss" had me splattered across the floor. (It's actually two boss fights without a health refill...YIKES.)

Cave Story is back to "Nintendo Hard" and honestly, I don't have the patience for it. However, I'd buy it again, just because the guy making it is brilliant. :)

I think platformers have fallen completely out of style thanks to the current trend of gritty real looking shooters. (Boring. But I always found even the Doom/Quake style of shooter to be dull.)

I still think the gold standard is Mario and Kirby for platformers. Mario for some challenge and Kirby for casual players.
