"However you spin it, the inspiration well keeps getting deeper with all these dimensional-themed games. An idea typically associated with the puzzle genre, Flip the Core is but one of multiple SHMUP's that have explored a similarly systematic gameplay execution in hopes that by creating a deeper environment to wade through, the experience as a whole can be deepened. The title may not have the nicest ring to it, but Flip the Core catches attention in other, more important ways." -- Wiiloveit.com
The retro Game Boy Color title Wario Land II hits the Nintendo eShop this week, along with the popular PopCap Games’ title, Zuma’s Revenge! and the classic Double Dragon II: The Revenge. All three of these titles and many more are available from today for Nintendo consoles: Wii, Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo DS.
wario land 2s is where it started to roll downhill.. The 1st entry & Virtual boy version were the greatest & hasnt been the same ever since.. I poped it into my Virtual boy to see if it still worked & it did like a charm.. I love that game & it remains one of my all time favs.. I dont understand why the changed that style of gameplay
NintendoCharged: At first sight, Engine Software’s Flip the Core doesn’t look like much. While watching the trailers, it looked similar to classics like Galaga or Xevious. In my head I was thinking, “I can’t believe I’m downloading this”. So I download my game and unwrap it. On my first play-through, I played for maybe a half hour or more. Usually for me that means I’m enjoying it.
NintendoLife: We've already seen a few shoot 'em ups pop up on DSiWare, but for the most part the selection has felt more gimmicky than traditional. Flip the Core continues that tradition with a unique "flip" design that allows you to flip the flat background planes, greatly altering the level with one push of a button. And while this interesting gameplay twist does bring something new to the table, it sometimes holds the overall experience back more than it adds to it.
