Posted on October 29, 2012 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U
IGN posted a new Nintendo Land detailing the game’s three new attractions. Details on Captain Falcon’s Twister Race, Yoshi’s Fruit Cart, and Octopus Dance have been posted below.
Captain Falcon’s Twister Race
– Tilt the GamePad from a vertical position to steer your craft
– Aim to survive rather than race against opponents
– Previous attempt will be displayed in ghost form
– Better to use the top-down display on the GamePad to navigate the course
– Entering tunnels blocks your view, so you’ll need to look at the TV
Yoshi’s Fruit Cart
– Need to get Yoshi to a door
– Door only unlocks once you’ve collected all of the fruit that’s set out on a map
– Control your “Yoshi Cart” by drawing a path on the GamePad
– When your path reaches the door, the game prompts you to let Yoshi begin your dictated journey
– GamePad doesn’t display the fruit
– Only displays the basic map
– TV won’t show the path you’ve created
– Coordinate and reconcile each screen’s missing info
– Use textures and shapes that exist on the map’s background to guide your path
– If you reach the door without all of your fruit, it won’t open, and you’ll lose a life
– About 50 stages to complete
– There will be moving fruit, holes and other obstacles
– There is a system to ‘fast travel’ to later levels once you’ve reached them
Octopus Dance
– Basic rhythm game
– One-player experience
– Use the GamePad analog sticks and gyroscope to match the Game & Watch diver’s movements
– Things escalate quickly
– Diver will shift your Mii’s position, constantly changing your frame of reference for movement
