All the BIT.TRIP games in one package!



Not going to lie...this is one game that would actually be INSANE in 3D.

Very good news. I've only played Beat on my iPad, so I'm looking forward to getting them all in one package.

100% this. I've been interested in the WiiWare releases, so getting them all in one shot (and portable)? I'm down.

@TVandLust

Shame on you for playing on the ipad, which is the enemy you know. Any "true" Nintendo fan would only play games on a Nintendo console.

I will buy if it gets online leaderboards, but otherwise I'm not double dipping, unless there are some other interesting features that they've thought up.

I've only played BEAT, but having them all in one package is enticing. But even then, I'll buy it when there's a price drop, sale, or I have some kind of coupon.

I own 62 Wii games, 137 DS games and most Nintendo systems, right down to the Pokemon mini. Pretty true fan.

But the tactile nature on the iPad is really nice!

BEAT is a dream to play on the remote, though.

Now that I think about it, I don't think I want to play BEAT or FLUX on a handheld, where I have to tilt the screen.

I got BEAT as part of the STEAM "Potato Sack" promotion. I really couldn't get into it, even the additional GLaDOS level couldn't keep me.

Maybe I just suck with my aiming.

Playing BEAT with anything other than accelerometer-based controls is just asking for trouble.

I do hope that the people who couldn't get into BEAT know that the other games play completely different, yes?

Will get but the only question is how will beat and flux control?

BOUGHT.

...wait, I don't have a 3DS...

@GuillaumeFriend leaderboards would be better than online, but I'll take both.

@Nintendo.WiiHopefully via tilt.

Even if I did have a 3DS, I don't think I would double dip. I prefer playing games on my TV, and I can't imagine the 3DS versions controlling any better than the WiiWare ones. Online leaderboards would make it enticing, but we've already got our own leaderboards here.

@Guillaume
Oh yeah. I still have my eyes on this pack. I hear runner is a pretty nifty game in and of itself.

But...the 3D!!! I'll probably pick it up on sale sometime.

Eat it, diehard supporters!

I think Flux and Beat would work great with the touch screen (you guide the paddle up and down with the stylus), rather than tilt. It's kind of annoying to have to tilt the same screen where your gameplay is, especially on a game like that.

Fate would obviously do stylus too. Core and Runner are fine the way they are. Void could work with the analog stick or stylus, can't decide on which is better.

@GelatinousEncore
Holy shit you're right. Stylus controls for paddle sounds great, and you won't have to take our eyes off the top screen or lose the sweet spot.

Just realised how even more awesome this would be if Nintendo had a Trophy/achievements system. I mean, even if you guys think it's dumb, you'd feel pretty damn nice if you had a trophy to show off your insane skills.
