World's End Club coming to Switch May 28
- Thread starter Rosebud
- Start date
I'm surprised they just fully revealed the twist in the trailer, I guess they didn't want to risk the chance of people buying it expecting a killing game after the bait and switch on Apple Arcade.
also just to clarify I haven't played it and don't know the extent of it at all. Just shocked they would spend years hyping it up as a killing game and then fuck it all off.

More games need to say "fuck my genre" in the first 10 minutes
New call of duty needs to say "war's off" at the beginning then have the rest of the game be about the awkward power struggles at the local veterans association

Oh good, I wasn't the only one seeing that.
This has to be the current pokémon character designer right? It's uncanny.
i want to trust in uchikoshi again. 999 is a masterpiece but the rest of the series was a downhill slide. i guess the somnimium files was fine though?
actually the exciting thing here is that uchikoshi is teaming up with his partner from kid, who worked with him on the infinity games (never 7, remember 11, and ever 17). i also trust kodaka on the character side of things, so i hope the full experience is pretty good, since that's three major vn people in one space.
also people picked up on the character designs looking like pokemon's... apparently the artist (take) worked on some character designs for sun and moon.

That actually made it more interesting to me as I initially thought it was going to be like a Cartoon Network version or DR.
Willing to give this a shot. Enjoy the Zero Escape series and the bit of Danganronpa I have played. Interesting to see them try something different, hope it averts some of Kodaka's and Uchikoshi's samey tropes they can fall into. Going nope to the Death Game seems promising in that regard.
Think they specifically worked on the Aether Foundation characters in Sun and Moon (Lusamine, Faba, etc.) and think some of the gym leaders in Sword and Shield from some quick research.

I still don't understand what you're trying to say even with the clarification lol
The FMV game wasn't bad or weird, it just....wasn't much of a game. It was like a 3/5 star movie that you completely forget about once it's over.
oh this was the artist from katanagatari. the anime for it is fucking great.
Kinda pissed me off that they would namedrop both Danganronpa and Zero Escape in the direct but those games are still not on Switch. LIke, how the hell have they not been ported over yet? It's a cliche but the Switch is perfect for those sorts of games, I'd definitely buy them again on Switch and I know a lot of people would.
As for Worlds End Club, looks weird and maybe not what I was expecting but still good. Definitely wanna play it at some point but I still have to play Somnium FIles first.

I'm really surprised they revealed that twist! It was really fun to experience it blind when it originally came out.
gotta bug spike chunsoft for those. it's up to them to do that work. and kodaka and uchikoshi don't work there anymore - this is a different company.
The Direct revealed the (early) twist for Outer Wilds too. Nintendo has no chill. Or maybe they just assumed everyone knew the basics for late ports. :P
I'm kind of glad they did though, because my first reaction was "The makers of Danganronpa bring you... Danganronpa!" Kind of interested to see it's not that.
(Granted, I would have played a Danganronpa-like too)
The name made me think this was related to those World End Economica games at first.
I guess it's like hiding the "twist" in Donkey Kong '94, it's a cool moment if it catches you unaware but in the end it's integral to people's decision to buy the game so they should know that beforehand. I wonder how many people skipped DK'94 on the Virtual Console because the store entry there treated it like an arcade port.
Pretty much what sold me on the game. At first I was interested enough (I like DRR) but then they reveal the twist and I was instantly sold, much more of an interesting concept (and I quite like the look of the gameplay. So probably a day 1 buy for me.
Probably my most hype game of the direct.
I loved AI somnium files and I can't wait to play this one.
I personnally love how the childish artstyle is clashing with the darker tone of the story. Definitely getting this one.

They've advertised this game as a killing game since conception for years up until it came out on Apple Arcade. Once people played it on Apple Arcade and realised it isn't, they're now advertising that it's not.
I read about this in its OT back when it came out but that's all I knew. I haven't played it myself because I was waiting for the full version.
I don't get why they even did this instead of being straight from the start lol.
I've never played DK94 so not sure what you're referencing but I'll take it. My assumption is the reason they revealed it for the Switch trailer is that whilst the Apple Arcade version was only $5 to play, not many people would be upset they were lied to. Where's a full priced game would have people less forgiving.

The "twist" is that the game starts out looking like the arcade game but after completing all four stages (which is easier in it than in the arcades even before you notice that Mario has additional moves like the backflip, triple jump and throwing the hammer) DK runs away into a city and suddenly the game changes into a puzzle platformer where you can lift and throw enemies, need to get a key to the exit door and generally there's 100 different stages to go through with always changing environments. The Virtual Console store entry only showed the first four stages and never mentioned how long the game truly is.
Similar price difference too with the VC release being like $4 but the original release a full price Game Boy game (with additional Super Game Boy features, it was the launch flagship title for that).
Limited Edition revealed for NIS' store. Doesn't seem to be up, but here's what it includes (used Gematsu since I couldn't copy it from my email)
All regular versions of the game will be $50 physically ($40 digitally) & get you a sampler soundtrack, mini artbook, & reversible cover.
.....man, moving away from physical CDs is a bummer...

So partly a port. First half of the game came to Apple Arcade last year. However, first console version and the second half of the game is to be released with this version.
I'm buying a new car in the next couple of days, and was struck by the fact that I will now be down to exactly one device in my life that can actually play audio CDs once I retire my old car- the PS3 I have hooked up in my bedroom, primarily so I have a Blu-Ray player up there.Limited Edition revealed for NIS' store.

That said, as someone who has bought games with CD soundracks and literally never used them dating back to the 3DS era, I wonder how much of the appeal is "a physical item" vs "something I would actually use"
Oh okay , thanks.
I dont follow Apple Arcade so this is pretty new lol
It sort of began as an "episodic" Apple Arcade game, but this looks like the true version of it.
Seeing how people are saying this went from Danganronpa-a-like to not pleases me. I didn't like Danganronpa (but liked 999), so I'm curious about this.
My only concern is that even in the Danganronpa games there were often sections or minigames with actual gameplay in them (Monomi vs the Beasts in DR2 for e.g.) and my impression of those along with the court minigames was that, basically, that team are *awful* at anything involving actual gameplay :p
