New Capcom game announced at PAX...DUCKTALES HD

[Police Girl]

They're releasing a boxed version... huh.

[ViperAcidZX]

Can anybody explain the huge gap between the Wii U/PS3/PC version and the Xbox 360 version release dates? No boxed love for the Wii U version?

[Satoryu]

Xbox's Summer of Arcade would be going on in August, wouldn't it? They're probably delaying it cause it'd get swept up by the other stuff.

As for the boxed version, it's just a voucher for the PSN version and a collectable pin for $5 more. Sounds okay for those who really want it, but I already decided to get the game on Wii U cause that thing has like no game at the moment. I wonder if it'll have the achievements as well.

[ViperAcidZX]

Oh, forgot about Summer of Arcade. Thanks for making Xbox 360 owners wait even longer, Summer of Arcade, though it's not like I'll be able to get $20 card with all this crap going on lately. So much for Day 1 purchase...

Collectable pin, you say? Innnnnnteresting! 

Anyone know what it looks like?

I think someone has a picture of it in the comments of the Siliconera article Vixy posted.

I'd so want one if I ever have money to spend...

[VirusChris]

Nice boxart. ^_^

[Protoman Blues]

Damn. I was hoping the Pin was Scrooge McDuck bouncing on his cane.

[Phi]

Wow.

I love this artist, whomever he/she is.

[Fxeni]

I love how it resembles an old style cover... we don't get them like that very often nowadays.

[Phi]

Very true, unfortunately.

[Police Girl]

I know they said August... but for some strange reason one can already purchase the game on PSN.

Whether or not you can actually PLAY it though is another matter entirely.

[Satoryu]

Has anyone else picked this up yet. I'm having a great time with it. I really like how they give you something to do in the stages. Really fleshes them out compared to the original where you just run to the boss.

Only problem I've had was a freeze while checking the leaderboards. I gotta go check Miiverse and see if anyone else had that problem.

[Protoman Blues]

Is this out for the 3DS yet?

[Satoryu]

No 3DS version. Just WiiU, PS3, and PC for now.

[Protoman Blues]

But there is a 3DS version coming, last I heard, right?

[Mirby]

Nope.

They confirmed some time ago that it wasn't coming to handhelds. Confirmed back in March, actually

[Protoman Blues]

Bollocks. Ah well, PS3 then!

[Reaperoid]

Trying to get Steam to download it as I speak...

[ViperAcidZX]

I still have to wait for the XBLA version. Frickin' Summer of Arcade.

Would love to get it on Steam but I doubt my family would let me buy anything at the moment.

I bought and played through DuckTales Remastered the other day and I have to admit I'm quite impressed with it overall. The two new  levels are quite fun to play through and I quite enjoyed watching the cutscenes and the, well, DuckTales feel they added to the game. It really feels true to the show. That said the cutscenes themselves are also my one complaint about the game, while they're fun to watch the first time on repeat playthroughs it becomes quite irritating to have sit through them all over again. True there is a skip function but on stages like The Amazon where there's a small scene every time you get one of the coins it can quickly become quite tedious, especially for someone as impatient as me.

So while I enjoyed it and think of it as money well spent, in the future I'm probably just going to stick with the original if I ever want to play it through again.

[Police Girl]

I think this is the first positive thing you've said about Ducktales. I thought you weren't gonna buy it.

[Archer]

I've said a lot of things in the past that aren't true.

[VixyNyan]
