Like most of you, I was taken aback when Nintendo first revealedNintendo Landduring its E3 conference. But after actually, ya know,PLAYINGthe thing, I started warming up to it. It’s less the kind of “party game” we are familiar with and more a collection of literal “mini games” — condensed versions of full-featured titles. Some can be quite tough as well, likeDonkey Kong Crash Course, which I couldn’t even make a quarter of the way through.
If you check out thefull list of attractionsI posted earlier, you’ll noticeBalloon Trip Breezeamong them. As the name implies, it is a standalone version of the “Balloon Trip” modes fromBalloon Fighton the NES andBalloon Kidon the Game Boy. The difference here is that the graphics have been given theKirby’s Epic Yarntouch, there are more varied obstacles, and you control your avatar via the touchscreen. This wasn’t among the games at E3, but I guarantee it’ll be just asaddictive as past “Balloon Trips,” if not more so.
A few days ago,Game Informerposted anexclusive trailerforBalloon Trip Breeze. We missed it the first time around, but with all the Nintendo news trickling down today, we might as well share it now and gauge interest. Also, I hope you guys at least give the rest of theNintendo Landpackage some consideration. It’s not as bad as you may think.
