Title: DK Barrel Blast in a bit more than a week - How Did I Miss This?
Post by: David on September 29, 2007, 04:46:46 PM

So I got an e-mail from Nintendo today, summarizing tidbits and such about the Wii and DS during September. Nothing about the infamous "September surprise" we may or may not have gotten, but there was something interesting in the e-mail: "Donkey Kong Barrel Blast (http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/games/dkbb) - coming October 8th".

Now, I'm sitting here confused, as I didn't know we had a release date for the game.  I jump online to check TMK... and yes, Deezer or MB or SOMEONE ELSE better in tune with release lists has that noted.

Why do I feel like I missed some announcement months ago?

There has been little-to-no hype, so I can see How You Missed That.

Phantom Hourglass pounced upon me the same way two days ago.

From NP's review of it I am scared of how this game will have turned out.

It seems that none of the reviews can figure out how to play it properly. Here's some footage from a live tour of the game on some other site. (http://www.stickam.com/editMediaComment.do?method=load&mId=176497285)

I wonder if you can do a barrel roll.

Nope. I don't really care if you can do a barrel roll or not... I've no plans for this game.
