Had a lot of fun with it though, charming and really entertaining to play, just the right amount of challenge to keep it interesting without it ever becoming overly frustrating. Occasionally I had little frustrations with the camera and some of the Toad Brigade levels also got a little irritating at one stage where they wouldn't get on the bloody platform I wanted them to
. Not a huge lover of the touch-screen/blow on the microphone bits either but I suppose they were trying to justify the gamepad as much as possible and they're fairly infrequent. All minor issues though, an absolute gem of a game overall.
I don't know whether anyone else was the same but I found myself playing this entirely off TV, it was perfectly suited to it and I couldn't help but think how much of a perfect game it would be for playing in portable mode on the Switch.
Couldn't agree more with this. I wish they'd had a toggle for the gyro - sometimes I'd tilt the camera to a not particularly helpful angle without meaning to.
I played it pretty much entirely in off-TV mode, too, and I'd love to see it come to Switch. For some reason I can't see Nintendo doing a sequel, though.
Yeah it was really frustrating in that respect, fell to my death more times than I would have done otherwise. There was a level with lots of boos chasing you in the third chapter which I found worse for that than any others.
I too have a feeling it may be a stand alone game, I do think it could adapt well to another Nintendo franchise though as well. It apparently started off life as a concept for a Zelda spin-off so perhaps like Wooly World/Epic Yarn we'll see it revisited as another franchise.
It would perhaps be a nice fit for an Ice Climbers reboot! More likely as an e-shop only title than a full blown release, which is in fairness what I suspect Captain Toad was supposed to be, judging by the structure of the game.
