There was something exceptionally captivating about Mutant Mudds when it released on 3DS back in January of 2012. I think, for me, the combination of slower-paced platforming and old school difficulty that Renegade Kid created scratched an itch that few games do, so naturally I was quite pleased upon hearing the announcement of an HD re-release for Max and his muddy rivals on Wii U.
It has been a long and arduous wait (the game was meant to hit Wii U much closer to launch after all), but I’ve finally got my hands on all 80 levels of Mutant Mudds Deluxe and I must report: It’s every bit as good as you’d think.
What better way is there to start a Nintendo conference than with a live Zelda performance? That’s exactly what attendees were treated to in 2011. A full-blown orchestra performed a medley of tunes from the Zelda series, capped off with new footage from Skyward Sword.
A series of Zelda announcements followed: Link’s Awakening 3DS VC release that very day, Four Swords for DSiWare, Skyward Sword’s gold Wiimote, symphony concerts, and music CDs.
The 3DS received the spotlight next. Nintendo unveiled new trailers for Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D Land, Kid Icarus: Uprising, and Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. Time was also taken to highlight Star Fox 64 3D.
What followed was all Wii U – the system’s name, GamePad reveal, overview trailer, and games. The very mention of Smash Bros. earned a huge reaction.
And who can forget how Nintendo closed its conference? With now-former EA CEO John Riccitiello coming on stage to announce the publisher’s “unprecedented partnership” with Nintendo. Oh how quickly things can change…
