How is the Wii U port?

How is the Wii U port?
I've heard some bad things about the PS4's performance, does the Wii U version fare any better?

I didn't have any problems with it

So no framerate issues?
I've heard that on the PS4 it's very inconsistent and returning to certain levels halves the framerate.

The Wii U port is pretty great. I've played through the game and haven't seen any problems.

Nope.
99%'d it and had zero issues.

Sweet, thanks for the information.
I'll strongly consider picking it up within the next couple of days then.

I want to suffocate in the Mermaid queen's cleavage

trying to 100% and ive been stuck trying to get this chest for like 30 minutes
maybe im just retarded? How do i get in here?

forgot pic

You need the item that lets the mermaid go up waterfalls.

Are there any protips I should be aware of for the speedrun achievements? Those are the only two I have left.

well shit i just assumed every transformation had 1 upgrade

thanks user
time to find that upgrade

run fast

What the fuck did the "Directors Cut" add to Risky's Revenge?
Did it replace the obviously cut dungeons?

i heard if you have jar transformation and are in the shop, you can farm money without the timer running

not sure if this is true or not but you could test it by sitting in the shop on a different file

I absolutely love Shantae.
>Risky's Revenge, Pirate's Curse and now Half-Genie Hero on a single machine
>Technically the original too, because emulation.

Now, if Wayforward gave us a proper Mighty Switch Force 3 or an HD remake/remaster of 2, this'd be the best timeline.

>Now, if Wayforward gave us a proper Mighty Switch Force 3 or an HD remake/remaster of 2, this'd be the best timeline.
No, we need Mighty Milky Way to ported.
I never got to play that game.

Why not all of the above, user?

Because it's Wayforward.
Three games being ported/developed on Wayforward time? We wouldn't see any released until 2025.

>the bubble allows for both shooting bubbles and shooting up waterfalls

well i feel dumb

I think it's just the dialogue bubbles + art in dialogue, plus magic mode but im not sure if that's in the original or not.

Can you trade dances and buy them again or do you have to trade with Tuki every time you need the other dance? Talking about the Gem Jug Dance and Blobfish Dance. Especially the latter. How is it helpful?

Also Dryad Dance is actually pretty helpful for stocking up free vulneraries in cases of emergency. Also gives you invincibility frames as well.

Since when did Bolo get cool-ish?

Shit, you got me there.

I have it on Wii U because way back then they said there was still gonna be customizeable dances and shit that you could use the gamepad for. Granted, with how many transformations are in the game now the current system is way better and faster, but still kind of disappointed. I'm starting to regret it though, because I got 100% on the early access build but now I won't be able to get steam achievements and cards and shit. Plus using my DualShock controller on PC is just comfy as hell.

I wonder if I can email Wayforward and ask for my backer shit be changed to Steam keys.

Bat Dance is a very underrated transformation. It is necessary for quite a few collectibles and it straight up lets you cheese certain stages.

You can just trade dances back and forth as many times as you want whenever you visit Tiki, there's no cost or penalty aside from buying the initial dance. As for Blobfish, it's literally useless. You don't even get some cool dialogue with Grandma Blob or anything. It's just another thing to get 100% completion with.

That's exactly why I hate it, personally. It makes the platforming negligible and doesn't really bring anything interesting to the game. It could have been done so much better.

One user suggested that you get knocked out of the transformation after a hit or two to balance it out. I'd be all for a patch that does that.

Dunno all I know right now is that the Wii U and PC version are the only stable versions at the moment so you at least lucked out there.

It runs fine on my nearly broken NEET-top.

All right. Blobfish will be a last-minute trade then, for completion sake.

This sounds good. I was shocked as I was flying through the Archer desert with moving blocks that I can still fly while getting injured by the arrows and bomb-carrying birds. It's a rather broken transformation. Monkae is still the best though.

Monkae is GOAT.

Monkae a cute

Hugs and cuddles.

I'm missing one heart container on Main Street.
I found the one that you get when you go into the sewer pipe, where's the other one?

I think it's in the chest in the top-left corner of the burning section. You need Harpy to fly there.

Yeah, I missed that one the first time around, too. You'll need Monkae in the burning section of the stage. At least, I think that's the heart.

I tried this and got no response from the support team. We're stuck with the Wii u brother

Cool, thanks.

>Plus using my DualShock controller on PC is just comfy as hell.

Well sorry to tell you that you can't do that either on PC because the PC port doesn't support them properly.

>game released on PS4
>PS4 controllers not supported by PC version

another quality PC port from these dumbasses

>Well sorry to tell you that you can't do that either on PC because the PC port doesn't support them properly.

Yeah, most PC games don't, that's why I use SCPServer. Plus I'm not sure Windows naturally supports DualShock 4 to begin with.

Did you specifically ask for your backer shit to be changed to Steam, or just for your game to be switched to a Steam key? Because I honestly have no problem getting the game again, it'll probably be down to 5 bucks in a future sale anyway.

does the physical release coming with anything extra like an artbook or CD? debating if i should get this game now or wait for the physical

Premiere physical copies com with a sweet manual unlike most games these days and a soundtrack CD.

I still feel it's kind of fucking dumb that a game released on PS4 doesn't support PS4 controllers.

>Plus I'm not sure Windows naturally supports DualShock 4 to begin with.

It does, but much of the dev tools for PC games try and force people off it and stuff. It's understandable but still lazy.

How's the Vita version? I might pick that up tomorrow.

Well I'm not saying I support it at all but I can get why, Windows is inherently a Microsoft product and all. Most people just get third party or 360/Xbone controllers to use on PC anyway. Regardless of the situation it doesn't really bug me since people make it incredibly easy to use any controller on PC. My DS3 is so fucking comfy, mang.

Why does every shantae thread turn into vore?

I'm glad they used some better shaders for the 3D models in the background/as level objects.
Ducktales: Remastered looked like shit because of it's 3D models and Half-Genie Hero was shaping up to look just as bad in that first trailer.

...

So, hypotheticals time.

If Wayforward decided to make a HGH Director's Cut for, say... the Switch, as well as whatever Sony and Microsoft's next-gen consoles will be, what do you think they'd add to it?

Personally, outside of the mandatory blue slave princess Dancer Costume, I think they'd probably add in full voice acting and animated cutscenes, given that they were stretch goals for the regular version.

Gem Jar+Bathhouse=????

A bunch of wasted time.

Not worth it. I tried.

That plus a port of the original gameboy game would Be neat

Wait so the Wii U port is better than PS4? Fuck. I switched my reward over at the last second to avoid another Mighty No. 9 debacle, but I guess the joke's on me.

I had a good chuckle at your expense.
Although I don't think anyone would have guessed the Wii U version would be better.

Sucks man. It's the only game I've ever backed on a fundraiser that I didn't regret backing, but then I went and fucked myself last second. I wonder if it's possible for them to patch the PS4 version. I really don't want to have to buy it again.

I'm sure they'll patch it. Whether or not they'll do it before the next DLC is out is another story.
Speaking of which, are the additional modes whch aren't out yet going to be a free update or some paid bullshit?
