''If you haven't invested in a charge station for your Wiimotes yet, you may as well now. One of the things we learned at E3 is that low-battery-power Wiimotes throw off Samba de Amigo's position recognition big time. We almost thought it was faulty coding. Fortunately, that's not the case, and I'm pleased to report that whatever setup you use, this game works as advertised, so feel free to have a ball once it hits. Accolades to Gearbox, then, for making it so.
I get ahead of myself, however! For those of you who still don't know, Samba de Amigo is a maraca-shaking rhythm arcade game that eventually landed its way onto the Sega Dreamcast. The object is to take two giant maraca controllers and shake, pose and dance to the beat of several Latin-themed songs (amongst others) for a high rank and score. In Samba de Amigo, looking like a huge idiot is half the fun; the other half is not caring how you look because you're having too much fun.
The Dreamcast version required specialized controllers that are now somewhat rare; the Wii, however, allows people to handily use the controls that came with the system. You can play with the Wiimote and Nunchuk, or two Wiimotes (maraca shells have already been announced for this setup). The fact that the Wii controls are wireless means the system's a perfect fit for the game due to ease of setup and use. Not only that, but after much testing on the show floor, I'm able to conclude that they're actually more accurate than the original Dreamcast maraca controllers in terms of position recognition.''
With loads of new games on the horizon and a recent price cut, we think there's never been a better time to own a Quest 2.
You mean the price cut that isn't really a price cut. They started out with PREDATORY PRICING to kill competition. Then raised the price to stop the losses they were incurring for that low-ball price. Then lowered the price after jettisoning thousands of employees jobs and more competition on the market? Great time. Lol. The price cut is the same price they started out with.
Not only that, but most games announced are also coming to PC and PS VR 2 that will look and play much better. Yeah. And where's GTA? Lol
The Quest Gaming Showcase put Sony's PSVR 2 efforts to shame. Big reveals, new trailers and more highlighted an exciting future for Quest.
That's weird.
According to lots of people, Sony's showcase was bad because a lot of the games shown are coming to Xbox
Now suddenly the Quest Gaming Showcase was amazing, even though most of the games shown are coming to Playstation.
I don't get it.
The fact is most of the VR games shown in that showcase are coming to PSVR 2. So doesn't that mean their showcase was bad?
Trash article, trash title to get clicks. The reality, gamers don't care everything is selling good.
I guess I could look into Asgard Wrath for my Quest2.
Almost thought it said Asuras Wrath VR
Asgards Wrath is one of the best vr games ever made and 2 looks even better. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
Shun Nakamura, a Game Designer and Producer at Sonic Team, recently stated that he would like to see Samba de Amigo make its way to Nintendo Switch.
