Cave Story Officially RELEASED for WiiWare

...
I will pounce from the shadows when you least expect it.

Maybe you're not whyme.
Anyway, as for Cave Story, it's probably going to come out in the fall now. These guys are delaying as much as Brawl.

 

Ill be honest.
I hate this.

Sprites suck
Names suck
Quote and Curly are fat.


There is only 1 good thing that may come out of this.
Quote for the wii.
Wii = nintendo
Nintendo = Smash bros
Smash bros = Quote


I'd win tournaments at that rate, no joke.
I'd go there dressed up as the fucker, and never say more then 2 words.

Actually I hate all the sprites.
Toroko looks retarded
King looks like Knuckles
Balrog looks like he ate a sour factory
I don't feel like continuing.
The music sucks, but the argument of "you can change it back" comes into play.
Then again if I could change the entire game back to original sprites I'd still be bitching about the new ones. So yeah the music sucks.

Also the entire fact that you have to pay for a free game is stupid.
The only "thing" they added was fail. Fail sprites. Fail music. Fail names.

The took the soul away from this game.

Side note: I meant to say "more then 2 words."
Thanks for catching that.

Bushlands............
Whut.

Seriously, what was wrong with Grasstown?
What else did they destroy?
(Other than Toroko)

Well I'll leave this place to this.
I'm not buying Casualstory.
If you do I hope it's fun and you get your moneys worth.

They didn't destroy anything. The pc translation is unofficial, which is obvious with Earth instead of surface, Koron instead Colon, the Rabil/Ravil name confusion, frakking "Bloody Holy Land" (a disgustingly literal translation), and the mistranslation of the password.

Also Pixel has his hand in the facesets and sprites, plus everything is run by him for approval. You are practically insulting Pixel, something which I, as a Cave Story fan, disapprove of. If you still do not want to play it then that is no reason not to buy it and support Pixel, which is a very good reason to pay for an otherwise free game. You can always play it without the new graphics or sound if needs be.

 

That would be the only reason I'd get it. The only reason I would get it is to support Pixel.


Also: Can you play it with its original sprites? If so I'd probably buy it. I'd have no reason not to at that rate.
I understand you can disapprove of my opinion of hating those sprites, but I'm still sticking to my opinion. Get as offended as you want, but my opinion is my own. I. Hate. Those. Sprites. I'm not going to hate you if you don't though. You have a different look on things then I do.

Also you seem to know a lot about this so maybe you can answer me this.
Did they add anything? Is it just cavestory revamped or did they add anything?

 

I just hate the Wii.
>_>
Anyone who wants to fight about that should drop a pallet of them on their foot before starting anything.
Ad hoc: If you do this, I'm not responsible for the broken foot or whatever injury/injuries comes from doing this.
Ad naseum: If you actually manage to find a pallet of Wiis...

 

I was dabbling around for sprites for my friends "gang garrison" HD mod and I came up with this sprite.

I editted it since then. Made the back more bulky and such. Fixed hat and yadda.
I know this Quotes color scheme isn't the same as the original Quote, but that's because Gang Garrison uses a more "white" skinned and "red" color pallet for clothing.
So I did that too.
Bias opinion, but I think this Quote looks better. Disagree if you must, but like I said my opinions are my own.

 

Yes, that Quote looks better, but what can you do? At least I don't think New Quote is ugly, so I'll be able to stand playing through the whole game looking at him. And yes, you can switch the graphics for the classic set.

 

Can you play it with its original sprites?

Yes. You can switch between original and new graphics, as well as between original and new music/sound.

Also you seem to know a lot about this so maybe you can answer me this.
Did they add anything? Is it just cavestory revamped or did they add anything?

They added an official English translation and DLC support.

 

Maybe someone will make another Let's Play for the WiiWare version, though? So everyone can see it?

I'd watch it if there's no commentary.

They didn't destroy anything. The pc translation is unofficial, which is obvious with Earth instead of surface, Koron instead Colon, the Rabil/Ravil name confusion, frakking "Bloody Holy Land" (a disgustingly literal translation), and the mistranslation of the password.

If there are errors, why doesn't someone make a fixed version?

A fixed Mac version would be nice too; I think there's one or two things that were missed in translation, at least.

Also: Can you play it with its original sprites? If so I'd probably buy it. I'd have no reason not to at that rate.

You can even mix original sprites with new music, or original music with new sprites, if you want to.

 

Heh heh...

new or old, like it or not, I know this game is going into my library of games to buy. I just got into the whole Cave story thing, and I love it, games such as these deserve to pay the creators with a 50-50 split of the profit

heh heh. Joined to say that, may end up sticking around...

 

Looks sweeeeet

It fails to satisfy. It looks too detailed for the 8-bit/16-bit/whatever style you're trying to emulate: The shading going all over the place and the addition of the light reflecting off Quote's hair, elongating the upper curves of his hat make it feel like you skimped out on drawing something that would have been far more pleasing to view. And where did his cheeks go? Both the new and old Quote sprites got the shading and other minor details right.

Black hair does not look brown in the light, by the way. And why his hands are constantly balled in fists is a mystery to me.

 

If there are errors, why doesn't someone make a fixed version?

Because we don't know all of the problems with the script. A group called Nicalis is doing it, but everyone is complaining for some reason. -_-

As for the Bushlands thing, read this:

Blah blah blah

Pretending to know what I'm talking about is fuuun

Seriously though you somehow managed to completely avoid mentioning everything that was actually technically wrong with the sprite. Being unhelpful is one thing but being wrong about it as well is pretty weak.

EDIT: Fuck.

When did this turn into a critique thread rather than just a place for folks to show their CS pics?

FAIL. You're talking about the FanArt thread...

Let me clarify: I think that the amount of detail on his sprite is more befitting of a regular picture of Quote as opposed to a sprite.

 

That would be a terrible regular picture. Also, you're not allowed to complain about it being too detailed. That's stupid. I can't tell if the resolution is low enough on that sprite to go into the new Cave Story, but if it is, it should, even though it won't.
Also, I don't like how Quote has a mouth now. Take that off his sprite and it would be perfect for me. That's an important detail that should be left out (stfu I'm not a hypocrite) because I think it gives him too much personality.

 

 

Um.
Yeah. That.
So, like, what's up with Quote and Curly's arms? The right one looks like he's got nerve damage or a birth defect. And the left one looks weird but I can understand that, since he's supposed to be holding a gun, but the First Cave and Start Point are going to be awkward, not to mention the Blade. Maybe they have an actual sprite for the Blade now?

 

no u.

My previous post still stands.
I hope they'll have a sprite for the Blade!

 

WHAT. WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST QUOTE ACTUALLY HOLDING A BLADE WHILE HE HAS THE BLADE SELECTED?
