Yes, the game's from Wayforward. It's also a 2D sidescrolling beat-em-up, and seems to be pretty damn awesome. I LOVE Brave and the Bold and the wacky way the show is basically a reason to geek out over less known characters in their crazy adventures, so this is a perfect oportunity to check it out. Plus, Wayforward makes awesome stuff. Everybody has a hard-on for Shantae, but A Boy And His Blob for the Wii was the most adorable puzzle game ever. Even their licensed stuff has some charm. Got a great feeling this game will turn out good.

I thought Brave & The Bold was stupid.
Then I saw Owlman and MUUUUSIC MEISTEEEEER! episodes.

Anyway, a game, eh? This might turn out good.

Shantae. Hmm. Gotta check it out.

Well, certainly looks interesting. The animation looks rather smooth so far, at the very least.

As far as BATB is concerned... I always viewed it from that "Adam West" perspective, and I've always enjoyed it more that way.

I thought it was going to be like the NES games but this is cool too.

I would lol if Jake Kaufman did the music for this game.

He likes working with them so... ^_^[/spoiler]

I knew as soon as you mentioned SHANANTE, you attracted quite a crowd already.  

Then again, it's also the Goddamn Batman, and he's NOTORIOUS for his games on the genesis. Two cents say he'll be up against a VG-Only big bad.. Or a selection of Batsy's villans, as usual.

Joker > Penguin > Catwoman > Joker > Penguin > *villan cycle continues*

...

No thank you good sir, I'm gonna wait for Rocksteady's Arkham Asylum sequel instead.

How the hell did you misspell Shantae? It's in the friggin' topic title!

Also, WayForward did an excellent job on Contra 4 too; they can handle combat games with ease. This one should be no different.

EDIT: HOLY CRAP I WAS RIGHT!

- At WayForward, since January I have:

    * • Handled sound and music on four separate games, including this and this.
    * • Written 89 songs
    * • Designed 2,178 sound effects

First link is the one that shows I guessed correctly! HA! ^_^

F*ck you pronouns. It's usually the way I say the character's name. Basically, like this: Shanatae (Sha-nan-te-a).

WayFoward would at LEAST be notorious for it's difficutly for it's games; I couldn't get off the first planet in Sigma Star.

[Mirby]

I thought it was pronounced Shawntay...

Ironic we're bringing that up since that quote I posted confirmed virt returning to do the soundtrack for the Shantae sequel as well...

That also doesn't excuse you from misspelling something that was spelled correctly right in front of you.

[Sub Tank]

You guys are all noobs.  It's pronounced Shan-a-tea.  Like a manatee.

To all naysayers about Brave and the Bold, the show ISN'T meant to be the grim and dark Batman we've had ever since Frank Miller got his hands on Year One, back in the 80's. No, this is about the old-style, more colorful Batman, who many people might think it's "LAWL, FOR KIDS", but has pretty much the same style as any cool cartoon we know and love. It's a Batman who faces bad guys from space, outerdimensional beings, and all kinds of stuff. The Batman we're used to seeing on JLA and stuff, but a bit more playful, with a few more jokes in him. People are just used to the grimdark side of him, but he hasn't always been like that, and the very best Batman has always had kind of a colorful, playful side to him.

And Wayforward makes good stuff, so... let's be hopeful! Plus, we get Blue Beetle in this game! And Plastic Man was also announced a few months back! Yay!

Hey, I'm just looking forward to the inevitably awesome soundtrack by Jake Kaufman.

The game should be awesome as well. ^_^
