Gamers XTREME (Glacier928): "Nano Assault is a great game that any fan of twin stick shooters owe themselves to check out. Retailing for a cheaper price ($29.99) than most new 3DS games would, it’s an ideal game for both quick “pick-up and play” sessions and lengthy playthroughs. The visuals are excellent to say in the least, the overall sound is intense and the gameplay is very tight. The game does end quick but it’s very enjoyable throughout the whole ride and easily makes it replayable. If you looking for a fun, arcade style shooter, then Nano Assault will fulfill those needs."
Nano Assault is a particularly fit game for going mobile as it has many short and intense levels that suck you in, especially with how well the 3DS's 3D actually works. Developed by Shin'en, they've made several smaller games that you may have come across, Art of Balance and FAST Racing League to name a few.
FanBolt writes: "Nano Assault EX was announced earlier this morning via Shin'en Multimedia's Twitter account. Nano Assault was originally released on the Nintendo 3DS as a retail title last December, and is now being re-released in digital form on the Nintendo eShop in Europe and North America. The initial release, a spinoff of their acclaimed Nanostray franchise, was met with favorable critical reviews. The new version is “based on the original release but with new game modes & options”."
believe me or not, but those are the best news for today (in gaming), I've waited for soo long of this game's announcement in Europe (no matter eshop or retail).. game has got lots of great reviews, graphics, which for me is better than Resident Evil 3ds..and other this: I just love shooters - shmups!!! we need more games like this and like Omega 5 (still waiting patiently for new on 3ds, hope it's not canned), Mushihimesama..pleaase, make some shmups for 3ds eshop in 3d, pleaaase!! :)
but still, I'm happy that at last I can buy it.. Shin'en are great devs who make good games and with good graphics on Nintendo platforms
Shooting game fans will instantly recognize the name Shin'en. This is the developer behind Iridion 3D and Iridion 2, along with the legendary Nano Stray series for Nintendo DS. Now Shin'en Multimedia has returned with a dazzling new 3D shooter built exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS.
Great review.
