Honestly I remember loveing the old battletoads back in the nes/snes days... i wouldnt mind seeing a new one.
Also fun to see MS pulling some of the same stunts Sony are, ei wearing shirts with characters.

I hope both Crash and Battletoads get made (and both probably already are in production), we just need solid announcements and a few trailers :)

Phil was doing that ages ago.

Hope they do it I'm just not sure what type of game would fit better for it though. A side scroller or a full 3D beat em up. I think a side scroller would be better imo.

Yacht Club are very talented but for some time I got the impression Ruffians were working on some sort of beat em up for Microsoft. They were working on a Street of Rage like game I think it could also work as a Battletoads.

The next Battletoads should be a 1st person beat em up. Essentially it would be like Breakdown on OG Xbox, but your hands on green.

On a side note, we need a Breakdown remaster!

If a new battletoads would be made it would have to stray far from the originals bullshit hard difficulty. Nobody wants that these days. They could still make a solid beat em up with the franchise though.

So you dont want a Battletoads game? Yacht Club has proven they can make great school games, why would you be agasint it? Yacht Club arent brought out by MS and they can make what ever games they want but i would think YC behind a BT game will be a great combination. If you dont own the platform to play it then thats not my problem or anyone elses really.

 

It has nothing to do with XB1. I dont own one yet, but I will buy one sooner or later. I have three games for it

I would love another Battletoads game, but I dont think Yacht Club should be the one to make it. I would rather them make Shovel Knight 2 or a new IP than working on a MS game. I also dont trust MS or the XB1 owners to appreciate them.

Well you clearly anwsered my question. You dont own a XB1 which means you obviously dont care for there games. Also your sentence quote *I also dont trust MS or the XB1 owners to appreciate them* reads childish to me. Sorry but if your not here to discuss proper reasons for a new Battletoads game then i dont know why your here. No one cares if you like Xbox or MS or there games. The point is im talking about a new Battletoads games, not trust between you and a corporation.

Dont take that kind of stuff too literal, sometimes they mean nothing.

P.D. A new Battletoads would be cool tho.

So because Im not interested in Halo 5 and Forza I cant want a Battletoads game? If MS care so much for Yacht Club, then where is the physical version of Shovel Knight for the XB1?

I said Im getting a XB1 and that I have 3 games for it to play when I get it. Im just waiting for it to become cheaper.

No one is saying your not going to buy an XB1 and i believe you have the 3 games for it, the problem is your going off topic about how this company and its fans treat there games with sentences like *I also dont trust MS or the XB1 owners to appreciate them* what is that suppose to mean and why are you bringing that into my thread? What appreciation are you talking about?

Yacht Club would make a fantastic Battletoads game which would also benefit you for when you might pick up an XB1. If your too worried about Yacht Club drifting from there own games then who would you think would be great to make one of the best 8bit games of all time? Its not like Shovel Knight 2 would take years to make and making a new IP like you stated before is fair enough however considering how old Battletoads is (4 generations old) it practically is a new IP. Most gamers today wouldnt even know what Battletoads is.

If you love MS games so much, then why not put your trust in them to make a great Battletoads game and not get Indies to do their job.

Please explain how MS doesnt have a good rep with Indies and how Shovel Knight didnt do to well on XB1? I cant find the figures anywhere. From what i remember wasnt it the 360 that brought Indies to consoles or atleast made them popular? as for figures Shovel Knight is sold as a Digital only game on the XB1.

If your going to make a great game you get the best to make it. Yacht Club clearly have what it takes and are worthy enough in my books to make Battletoads, as there tie-in with Shovel Knight was fantastic, they even did the music right.
