Supposed to come yesterday, but came today - anyone else get the same? You usually get it at least 2 or 3 days early with subs anyway.
But that's all by the by.
Anywho:
Curiously little "omg!11wtf!1"-age on the DS, and they haven't even mentioned the thumb-strap, still talking about Mario and Metroid with the stylus.
Ah well - they're only critisism of both games was with the controls I suppose when someone takes another look in the DS box they might stumble across the solution.
Goldeneye gets what we all knew it would - 66%
Echoes gets 94% (Prime got 97% if you're interested)
Minish Cap - 91%
Wario Ware titly thinger 92% (yey)
Mario Tennis - 91%
Them's the good ones.
Nintendo religious Christmas p!ss-take thingy.
Shigsy's letter to Santa, which is quite hilarious.
Oh, and another DVD. Which was nice.
NGC TV indeedy. Although, annoyingly, most of the Echoes footage is too dark to see properly - I hope it isn't so bad in the actual game.

I wouldn't, the game was a marvel, incredibly addictive, so much fun to play, innovative and original in parts... despite some repetitive missions the game was essentially superb.
I'd say more like 75%

Wrong perhaps? But utterly wrong? I found the game just as enthralling as Prime and Wind Waker.
I'd say 92....
Although squabbling over exact percentage scores is just annoying. Lets settle with they're all great... who cares if one guy things that Prime 2 is 3% worse than Prime 1.

96% was utterly wrong.
Super Mario Sunsine is pretty different for this generation though.
I'm guessing if Mario 128 was very similar to Sunshine when released that would also have a similar criticism.

Yet Dringo, and WS, Mario Sunshine (to use your example) got rated 96% but wasn't a totally original gaming experience at all.
Dringo is actually right for once.
It doesn't blow you away like Prime did, simply because we've already seen Samus and the Metroid world in 3D already.
Like Sunshine - Mario 64.

MUST buy this for once. I pity it, because it's so good.
Wasn't Dringo talking to tphi?
I never said they didn't say it was excellent; I was giving tphi the answer to his question.
