Anybody looking forward to Nanostray 2?

Post by fixjuxa »

This is pretty much the only DS game I'm looking forward to right now. Unfortunately it's release date is still TBA. It looks sort of Gradius/R-Type-ish to me. Also, it's got both top down and side-scrolling levels. Didn't much care for the first game. The whole "don't shoot very much to get a highscore" system pissed me off(I don't play shmups to not shoot shit), as did the isometric 3D perspective and the invisible borders that came with it(though thankfully they've ditched this for the sequel), but it was kind of fun and it looked really good. Check out this movie if you've not seen the game in action. Looks like a ton of fun to me.

Looks mighty shitty.

How Shin'en failed to deliver a game better than Iridion II, I just don't know.

It just doesn't look very inspiring to me. Generic.

I'll probably still buy it since I'm a whore for this genre.
