t depends on the price. For 15$ or lower I would buy it, I'm not sure if I will if it costs anything higher than that.

Have fun not buying it then, bro.



This is certainly something that i'll never put inside my future Wii U

that almost sounds wrong..



I think the whole notion of paying even north of $30 for what's considered a puzzle game upsets a lot of people-- even me just a little. But if there's lots of unique content I may try it out.

Wishlisted!



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

Very true, puzzle games just aren't seen as major retail releases and therefore worth a retail price for the most part.  There are some exceptions but they're usually more story focused puzzle games like Portal 2 and Catherine.  Will be curious to see how something like this is received in this day and age.

It's not that it's a puzzle game ( I mean it hardly is anyways) it's that it looks like a minigame.

Funny you mention Catherine -- Toad's Treasure Tracker was compared to that game in the linked article!

This game was my highlight of Nintendo's conference by a mile so I'm not surprised it's getting praised.



The game looks very nice visually and the gameplay also looks fun, so of course it's getting praise!
