I know I have seen that face before....
The similarities are scary...

What does Ridge Racer play like? My only experience of racing is Mario Kart.

Does the review indicate it is fun/accessible single-player?

Not surprised by the SSF4 score.

'doesn't quite each the high standards we've come to expect from the seriers, particularly in terms of its content'

'the mini-games attract more attention than the main adventure, which in this case isn't good'

'has only 2 minigames, compared to SMB Deluxe's 12, SMB:BB's 50 or SMB: S&R's 21'

'only 80 standard levels, SMB 3D is significantly shorter than more previously games in the SMB series'

'disapointing considering that 3DS cartridges have a larger storage space than GC discs'

'when you use the tilt control method, the 'sweet spot' will be lost'

'no online leaderboards means little incentive to play through the game again'

'if it were priced at £19.99 ($32.09), instead of £39.99 ($64.20) we would tell you to snap it up'

'you can see almost everything the game can offer in just over 3 hours'

^^ That's a major bummer. May have to pick up RR instead...

what did they say about pilotwings?

it hasnt been getting as high scores as i was hoping. 6 in edge and 75 in ngamer and now 81% from an official mag (these tend to be higher than the average)  

Eh? De Blob 2 is on DS too? I had no idea!

none of the launch titles makes me want this immediately... I also subscribe to the magazine, and so far the machine itself sounds much more appealing.... they rate face raiders as superb enough to buy the system just to sample this built in game
