stepee Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 This is really great news. I’ll probably get it on switch and on pc. Fantastic games and an all time great character. Klonoa legit has the saddest ending of any game ever I swear. Hope this does well and we finally get Klonoa 3 and then Klonoa 3D World.

stepee Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Okay holy fuck I didn’t realize this is not just a port collection, it’s a remaster of BOTH games! And NO, not the Wii remaster for the first one, it’s an all new one! Fuck. Yes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I remember Klonoa. Would play again. Now if Squeenix would pull its head out of its ass and get us a Brave Fencer Musashi remake i might turn my Switch on more often. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fucking love Brave Fencer Musashi and a Trials of Mana-level remake would be absolutely perfect for it because it's that "tier" of game, if that makes any sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've read around online, it sounds like the remaster of the first game IS built on the 2008 Wii remake, but is that a bad thing? The remake was made by the same director as the original game, I thought it was good? Either way, I read that it is based on it I think. It's too bad the four handheld Klonoa games aren't included. I know two of them never released outside of Japan but two of them did, they could have at least given us those two, maybe if this release does well?

I don’t know if the wii one was good or bad, I just am excited they put that much work into this. :P Agreed on the gba/wonder swan games, it’s a shame they couldn’t have included those. And the beach volleyball game! I’ll get those loaded on my deck to go with it. Just got this even though a new game is the last thing I need right now, but I have to support this, excited to play tonight! Then I can have my heart broken all over again after beating the first and watching the saddest game ending of all time again. Edit: Klonoa is one of my favorite game characters so I would have paid $60 for this but this should have been $30, I think it would have sold better. The GMG price is pretty good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this game is the game that is the test to see if there is any interest in a new game. Almost like Capcom Fighting Collection was the test to see if people want more Darkstalkers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, the beach volleyball Klonoa game saw a release in Europe, that one like two of the four handheld Klonoa games that saw a release in the West, would have been easy I think to add into the collection.

stepee Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Just played the first level on the deck, runs maxed (turn settings up when you start especially AA which i think is mislabeled and actually AF) 720p 60fps. What a joy, can’t wait to play more. So happy to see my boy again even if it’s just a new coat of paint. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stepee Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Beat Klonoa and I’m probably over half way through Klonoa 2, these are really nice remasters imo. I actually like the brighter look of Klonoa 2. Still some of the best platformers ever, they really hold up beautifully with the modest coat of paint applied here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I can get it for cheaper, I will definitely buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 I think the price is somewhat justified. It's two games so think about paying $20 for each and it depends on how much effort went into the remaster. I mean I paid 33 for Capcom Fighting collection (normally $40) and maybe that extra $7 does something psychologically but yeah that's my thinking for justification of getting the game.
