So this was released on PC. Why don't you have it yet?
Because I'm too lazy to pirate it at the moment.
Because I recently tried this series out for the first time and played the GBC one and was really disappointed. Are the rest of them like that one or did the first just not age well (save for the graphics, that shit is ridiculous for a GBC game)?
>>253532063
Already have it
>>253532063
Have it on 3DS.
9.5/10, It's okay.
I already have it on my DSi and my Iphone.
How the FUCK do you unlock magic mode? I've searched all over the net and can't find the answer.
>No magic mode on first play-through.
Dropped.Just kidding the game is pretty good so far and has some surprising difficulty.
>>253534189
Did you go to the trading pist, or whatever its called in town?
>>253532063
Waiting for it to go on sale for 1.99.
Also, because I bought Stryder and E.Y.?
>>253533810
The first one's generally considered better than the first one, so depending on what you didn't like in the GBC game, you might be out of luck with the second game.
>>253534189
I think you just have to beat the game, that's what I've heard.
>>253534459
Oh, no. Thats where I can unlock it?
>>253533810
I never played the GBC one, but I'm loving it. It's got exploration, but doesn't feel tedious. And the platforming itself is difficult enough for my tastes: tricky sometimes, but isn't hardcore precise.
That and every freakin' woman in this game jiggles. Dear god, if this series ever made the jump to 3D it'd be raunchier than DOA.

Seriously this. We NEED new shantae porn.
>>253534709
Blame the shitty filesize limit for DSiWare.
That and apparently, putting games on DSiWare and WiiWare was hell waiting for Nintendo to have it go through inspection.
>>253534535
Not op, but I could never get into the first game because of all the respawning enemy bull shit. And having them pop up out of nowhere in front of me.
>>253534993
Consoles are certainly known for being dicks to smaller developers. Hell, didn't Sony or Xbox screw over Bethesda bad on Skyrim DLC?
>>253534993
I thought it was just due to poor planning on WayForward's part?
>>253535167
Well, to be fair, the inspection saved us from the WiiWare remake of Cave Story being worse, since Nintendo told them to fix it MULTIPLE times.
God, fuck Nicalis.
>>253534535
I bought it, realized it was a really shitty port, and haven't touched it since.
>>253535532
Thank you anon, best moment all week.
>>253534025
It was released on 3ds too?!
>>253535645
>>253535775
Original's still on DSi, so I bought it before they announced the steam version would be a "Director's Cut".
torrent when?
>>253535532
It's a mix of both. The backgrounds and such were cut due to filesize issues and the fact we only got one game out of the three they wanted to do was because of lost time because of Wayforward needed to resubmit the game to Nintendo.
>>253535645
>When the action gets wet,
Is there a good GBC emulator for PSP that runs Shantae well?
>>253535902
Oh.
So wait there's a new one coming out then right?
>>253532063
The pirate game of 1/2 Genie Hero?
>>253535796
>>253535645
>>253534535
It pains me to see what they had planned and what they actually put out.
At least Pirate's Curse seems to be "complete'.
Lewd Shantae thread? Lewd Shantae thread.
>>253536050
Risky's Revenge Director's Cut is on PC as of yesterday.
1/2 Genie Hero comes out later this year.
>>253536281
That's the one I was thinking of.
Is 1/2 genie hero coming to 3DS?
>>253536281
1/2 comes out next year. The beta is this year. No early access
I want it, but I can't.
>>253536452
No unfortunately
Because literally who.
Nobody even played her GBA game, it's a miracle this got funded.
>>253536712
Her GBA game never actually came out.
>>253536126
>two other episodes planned
>instead we get two ports
I bought this on 3ds since you people whoudn't shut the fuck up about it
I was very
VERY
dissapointed with how fucking embarrasingly short it was.
But since it has steam achievements I'm tempted to buy it again
Fuck me and my wallet
>>253536915
Welk mind you it was to be longer but was cut for time by nintendo
>>253535796
>Still no torrent for the Pc version
What's the holdup?
>>253537267
>>253536915
Risky's Revenge or Shantae?
Because if you're talking about Risky's Revenge, and you saw it talked about in a Shantae thread, you should have known that it's pretty short.
Got it on 3ds, enjoying it, so is the rest of the family.
>>253537429
Didn't know much about shantae and got it on a whim, I've been liking it but the 'get 3 macguffins' has worried me, it's really that short then?
Kinda feel like it shoulda been 8 bux rather than12.
>all that 2007-08 art
>dat booty
>dat cleavage
Need to finish the first one on the 3DS.
I like playing games like that.
>>253537731
Time constraints and hardware pressured Risky's Revenge to be too short, sadly.
It's a good game, but not really a good sequel.
>>253537938
>dat art for Dancer Shantae
I've never played any of the Shantae games. I've been meaning to try just emulating the first one sometime.
On a tangentially-related note, Mighty Switch Force Hyper Drive Edition, y/n?
>>253538480
>Mighty Switch Force Hyper Drive Edition, y/n?
I know nothing of this particular version but assuming the gameplay's the same as the 3DS one hell fucking yes
>Still no torrent
>>253538480
Mighty Switch Force is pretty great. but hyperdrive edition doesn't really add anything. either version is fine.
>>253538480
Yes, instead of being pixelated I think it animated
>>253538480
If you enjoy platformers and timed challenges, then Y.
and this isn't related to the kickstarter game?
>>253538974
Kickstarter's not until after the release of the next game, and is a different storyline.
>>253538974
No its about the pc port of risky revenge
So how well does it play on PC?
I assume no real issues with controls or anything, a simple and clean port?
>>253539563
Resolution can be a bit finicky at time, controlls handle well. All in all a good port

From what I hear it's a bad port with no ability to remap controls, nor vsync (and it has bad screen tear)
Not paying 10 bucks for an iOS emulation container
>>253545602
The screen tear has been noticeable a few times but it's not like it's a fast moving 3D game.
I couldn't get it to work with my PS2 controller and had to resort to KeytoJoy and EVEN THEN I had to remap the movement to the numberpad key because it wasn't detecting the arrow keys.
It's playable but I just had to jump through a few hoops. Having to go through so much shit to look at the map is also one of my gripes.
>>253545967
>keytojoy
I meant Joytokey.
>>253545967
I had the same problem when trying to use any other controller besides a 360 gamepad.
>>253543619
Absolutely no one beyond people actively following Shantae (or hanging out on /v/) heard about this release. It didn't even show up on Steam's scrolling ad on the storefront.
>>253546343
I mentioned in a thread last night that WF seriously need a new PR guy. The person in charge now hardly does jack shit.
>>253546537
I agree.
>>253545967
>it's not like it's a fast moving 3D game
Screen tearing is particularly jarring on flat 2D scrolling content, because you subconciously know the whole thing is a unit, but it moves in parts
>steam wallpapers are just cut and pasted concept art on black backgrounds
lazy
It's not time to go to bed yet.
where can i find the DS rom?
>>253548559
eShop games are pirate-proof.
$23,000 till $900,000.
>>253545324
faggot, that's gold nipple armor
>>253548679
Why exactly is this?
>>253549639
DRM, associated with an account, phoning home, you name it
>>253532063
I did buy it but I never played the first game. So that's what I've been doing. So far I'm halfway through the gbc Shantae game.
>>253549786
None of that makes any software pirate-proof. Standard DRM can be cracked and the need for an account/online can be countered by server emulation. Shits done all the time for MMO private servers.
>>253550118
Your thoughts so far?
>>253532063
I bought it because I'm dumb. I hated it before and I hate it now. Risky's Revenge is way too linear and the transform dance is somehow even more simple and dumbed down from the original GBC Shantae.
Oh, and there's no dancing minigame.
>>253549748
>Axel Rose
For what purpose?
>>253550358
How many eShop original releases have you seen made into playable roms?
>>253550358
>Standard DRM can be cracked
Say what? I'm not talking about copy protection, securom or whatever. The DSi stuff is just locked down, TPM style. No idea on the details, I don't have a DSi in part because I don't support that shit, but I suspect it's basic encryption, which just so happens to be damn hard to crack without access to the key, or stored on inaccessible (encrypted?) flash within the DS or what ever.
Also, good luck emulating a server which does server-side encryption/decryption
>>253550396
It's pretty intriguing, dungeons are fun to explore and transformations add nice ways to explore more of the areas. Still, the backtracking can get really annoying. It also has some grind to it where you need to buy some potions and moves and the game is challenging so it can be critical to do that. I'm liking it more and more as I play through it, I encourage other people to play the first.
>>253550882
also, on the subject of easy to crack hardware protection: http://games.slashdot.org/story/09/09/29/0516251/gameboy-color-boot-rom-dumped-after-10-years
"Costis was able to dump the elusive boot ROM from the Gameboy Color by using various voltage and clock glitching tricks."
What's the chance DSi stuff is locked down on the hardware level?
>>253551190
>grind
You can save-state exploit the iguana minigame and have loads of dosh in like 5 minutes.
>>253550882
This is the kind of answer I was looking for, actually explains it a bit rather than sounding like some casual guess.
>>253551274
Shit like this is way over my head but god damn if it isn't fucking cool. All of this just so you can properly get the "ping" noise at the beginning?
>>253551424
Don't even need to resort to save scumming. The mini games however ARE indeed the most profitable gold mine in the game
>>253551736
>Don't even need to resort to save scumming
The dancing minigame is interesting enough. I really hoping they bring a more fleshed-out version of that minigame back in 1 genie, 2 hero or Pirate's Curse.
>>253551424
yeah, i kind of ending up doing that once but it never really feels good to do that, and you couldn't cheat it like that if you were to play the 3ds version
>>253551660
The BIOS itself is dead simple, just the logo and the sound. That BIOS however IS regular GBC code. That is, a bunch of instructions for the normal hardware. Curiousity and hacker-dom has it, that they want the code, just to see if they can. However, it's stuck deep inside the GBC, in a ROM that is never "seen" by the games. The games can not access that memory location. Because, why? It's just the intro sequence and bootstrapping the game itself. No need to ever return there. So if you want to actually read out that code, you got to be creative. In very simple terms the glitching just puts the GBC into a state where you can do your own access stuff, but still maintain a pointer to the BIOS code, being able to dump it. There's no real DRM in that particular BIOS, it's just hacker curiousity. But the fact they had to resort to glitches and abuse of the physical layer, is telling. Hardware DRM (TPM) is quite effective
>>253552153
>and you couldn't cheat it like that if you were to play the 3ds version
There is a save state function on the 3DS version.

Rottytops is best Shantae girl.
>>253536452
There's actually 2 games in development right now
Half genie hero for every device except 3DS, and Pirate's Curse for 3DS and apparently Wii U now.
Anyone else not really like the character portrait art in the newer games (pirates curse onwards)? I really liked it in risky's revenge but now she looks like half her age.
>>253532063
I got it for the 3DS.
Beyond fancy sprite work and tits, it's a pretty average platformer. The writing is awkward, the level design is passable and the enemies are just annoying. The music is nice, but gets grating after a while.
>>253564113
mmmhmm
I want to cum inside of Shantae and then have Rottytops lick up my jizz that's dripping out of her pussy.
Also the gameplay looks nice too.

FUCK THIS ACHIEVEMENT, seriously. I finished the game but missed two Magic Jams (and thus one magic upgrade), and so I went back to get 100%. Figured I should try beating the last boss without potions as well, while I was at it. But holy fucking shit is that encounter built for frustration. All these little things, which didn't bother me at all the first time, gang up to fuck me over.
>No boss hp bar, so I can't see if I'm doing well or not, and as a result I really can't tell which magic is the best one to use.
>Hitting the boss with both the pike ball and your hair whip makes it flash so much I sometimes can't tell which attack is coming up next, meaning I take unnecessary damage.
>The mermaid routine in the second phase is incredibly hard to avoid unscathed, even if you hide underneath her for most of it.
>Failing the fight means going back to the save point, having to go through the dark room, being forced to re-watch the cutscene (even if the dialogue can be skipped, the animations can't be), and then beating Risky yet again - in a fight where you can only hurt her during very specific moments, so 80% is just waiting for those moments.
I just want to be able to fight the boss over and over, with minimum downtime, until I master it, beat it, and get my achievement.
