Bushlands actually sounds like a more correct name for the area that Santa and Chako live in...
Indeed, since the area doesn't really seem like a town.

Ugh man the more I listen to the music that's gonna be on the wiiware version the more I cringe at the thought....
I clicked the link to... 1UP was it?

I actually like all three of the tunes it features. The Sand Zone tune seems like it's a bit too fast, and the Egg Corridor is certainly a little annoying, but overall they're all nice music. I'm not going to judge whether they are better or worse than the original, but they are good in their own right.

This was ripped from the wiiware trailer by some guy. Ignoring some of the quality loss, I have to say that this newer version of eyes of flames sounds pretty kick ass. Like really kick ass.
Again, nice.

Update....ish?

Looks like the Blog site had an overhaul.
I like this new layout over the old one :(
Removed all of the tiny-micro updates about Night, and uploaded a La-Mulana video, but still nothing on Cave Story.
What happened to it coming out, months ago? T.T;

Haw, now that is a megaton better. I never much liked Square Quote and Square Sue.

...What's with tiny yellow Quote? Is he Austrailian? *Shot for self-reference*

Re: Cave Story Officially Announced for WiiWare

A new skin for the blog? (what about the actual main page?!)

Hey, at least it's the moonlit sky. Does that mean Cave Story is just around the corner?

...not that I'm keeping my hopes up or anything.

Yellow quote looks like a La-Mulana thing. 5 bucks says he's gonna be a DLC option.

I'm Australian (and by the sounds you are too) and I don't get it. :(

Oh wait, you meant "Austrailian". Yeah they sure like to wear yellow alot in Austrail. :D

We’ll have an update on Cave Story and its status next week. The game was resubmitted on Friday.

Stupid - frigging - spellcheck. Do your dang job. Anywho, I was talking about that thing I drew. That no one got. Bowie knives. It was in a movie people. Also, not that this means a whole lot, but just so folks know, I'm partially all of the four countries I stereotyped in Quadruple Quote *except* Australia. So... nope.

Next week? That means it's close... I hope I was wrong about "Hurray"...

God, I hope so...

Oh, and the yellow palette swap? I have a gut feeling that it could be the chicken suit that was mentioned by 1UP ealier. Though it isn't as humiliating as I thought it would be if it were to be true.

...still waiting for that Chicken suit-wearing-robot fanart!

Erm, in what sense? Cuz "I Wanna Be The Guy" was exceptionally difficult and I'm not really sure what you are talking about.

Despite the incredible difficulty curve in I Wanna Be The Guy, there are difficulty settings. However, should you absolutely hate not having save points on every screen there is, there is easy mode. The trade-off is that The Guy will now sport a pretty pink ribbon on his head (you sissy).

Ditto with Cave Story on Easy mode, as mentioned in that article.

...and copying? Games throughout history have done similar things (such as not letting you play for more than a few levels). Hard mode for the win!

That's not the chicken suit. We've seen the chicken suit. That's just Quote wearing yellow clothes. Maybe someone at Nicalis was bored one day.

Re: Cave Story Officially Announced for WiiWare

Lots of people are saying that it "might be a multiplayer mode you could get from DLC." If so, I'm buying. That would be my one reason to buy this.

Really? I'd like to see the link.

Of Quote. In a Chicken Suit. In game, preferably.

And meh to rule 34. I've grown far too accustomed with stuff I didn't ask for to care anymore.

And yes, Rule 34 can be fanart. (I still prefer the other types of fanarts/works)

Multiplayer, huh? I'm guessing people already asked "why not play as Curly instead"?

A big bonus, but I'm not exactly sure how multiplayer would work...

Re: Cave Story Officially Announced for WiiWare

Maybe a deathmatch. but none of the maps are built for that?

im geussing one persons quote and one persons curly and you go through hell together. or do a boss rush together. that would cool. or if you could just play it with your mate and work together completing the story. but then theyd have to change the storyline....

Jethawk, you didn't listen. People were saying that the YELLOW QUOTE might be second player.

That one, a few posts before.

Oh, and most agree that the palette swap is 2P. Whether it's true or not has yet to be seen.

...and why yellow? I don't exactly like this color scheme...

Am I the only one that thinks the little yellow outfit is a La-Mulana tie-in question mark It looks to me like he's wearing a pith helmet dot dot dot

Or perhaps an explorer-variant fedora a la Indiana Jones period
