Re: Rare Was "Enthusiastic And Passionate" When It Came To Bringing Banjo-Kazooie To Evercade, Says Blaze CEO

xzacutor

I really enjoyed playing Banjo Kazooie on the RARE Super Pocket. I liked the extra content they added to it and I'm curious to see if they added any extra content to Banjo-Tooie. Since they're making tweaks to the games hopefully they can make the Canary Mary parts a little easier on the thumbs.

I also hope that Evercade make a new upgraded VS system like how the Nexus is an upgrade of their EXP handhelds. Even if it's just got Nexus guts in a box that I can play on the TV with my brothers I'd be happy.
They could call it the Nex-VS.

I let them know how difficult it is to get evercade products in Australia. You can get the super pockets from Target and a couple of smaller websites online, but they don't sell cartridges at any of the major local retailers (JB Hi Fi or EB Games) so hardly anyone has heard of them.

I also let them know it'd be good if they reprinted some of their older carts so people new to the ecosystem would have a decent range of games to play, since finding carts to buy from over a year or two ago is hard as they're either out of stock, out of print, overpriced by resellers or worse overpriced second hand.

I also thought it'd be cool if you could play the games from the super pockets on the VS systems. Maybe through a USB connection or by placing the super pocket into a dock that's connected to the VS system.

The Shenmue one looked nice. It looks like what I'd expect from a remake/remaster.

The Mario one was trippy, kind of reminds me of when a group of artists collab on a video using different art styles.

The wooly Mario head was cute, it just needs a moustache. I thought it was interesting how it interpreted the stages differently, like the lava world being Jam, and outside Peach's Castle being sandy.

Overall I didn't hate it but it definitely needs a lot of work.

@Stocksy Yeah I agree. If they want to one up him they should go for later kill screens or the rollback after 255 instead of the earlier/easier kill screen.
They'll still never be the first person to get the break screen so the kid's got that.
