Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

I have to say, this game hasn't been on my radar at all since it got announced at E3, but this trailer has me sold. I was disappointed with 3D World overall but my favorite bits were honestly the Toad levels.

So yeah, this game looks like pure happiness. Probably get it around Christmas.

I liked the inclusion of the Captain Toad levels in 3D World, a game I really enjoyed as a whole, so this trailer has me pretty interested. I know a few others here have said they're looking forward to it as well. I'll likewise get it around Christmas.

Pretty amusing to see Toadette kidnapped of all people.

Interested in this game. I'm glad it's gonna be $40 since I didn't really see it as a $60 game. Maybe for christmas, looks like it'd be fun

This game is legit. They did a good job of making it easy enough for non-gamers to get into while making it interesting enough that I can enjoy it without getting bored.

EDIT: The only thing that is a little iffy is the villain. You go around collecting a bunch of stars and are the lead protagonist. A bird flies around collecting the same stars and is a villain. What lol. But it's a Nintendo plot for children, so I give it a pass.

I haven't played the game, but I'd bet you any amount of money that the bird is going to use the stars for nefarious purposes, whereas our hero the captain is more benevolent

I'm pretty far into the game, so unless there is a massive swerve dude is just collecting stars for fun.

Just wait until the dramatic twist in the third act, it really changes your moral understanding of everything that happened before

Reminds me of how in the manual for Super Mario Bros. it says Bowser turned the denizens of the Mushroom Kingdom into bricks and blocks. So really, Mario had been killing Toads the whole time. Bowser is the most brutal and cunning of the Nintendo villains.

Looks like a cool game. I'd get it if I ever get a Wii U.

The "isometric view and levels floating in air" reminds me of Lode Runner 2

Depends on what you consider proper value for $40. I just completed the game, and according to my Wii U stats it took 13 hours. I went at a leisurely pace - probably could have finished it a few hours quicker if I went into power-gamer grind mode. Note that I didn't do any time trails and did not max out the coin minigames, although I did get 3 gems on every stage and complete every bonus objective (again, excluding the coin minigames).

Personally I think the game was worth $40. $60, definitely not, but there is enough variety and time investment to get your monies worth IMO.
