Nou ja, ik heb hier wel een "normaal/open" bij dit topic, maar ik denk niet dat ie dat heeft bedoeld.

Ik ben nog lang niet overtuigd.. Er zit geen enkele (launch of latere) game bij die me interesseert..? Waarom bijv. geen nieuwe Zelda bij de launch? Die ocarina of time kennen we onderhand nou wel..

Once you penetrate beyond the first few hours of torpid "Basic" races and start earning the praise continually heaped on you regardless by the game's obsequious announcer lady, this is a Ridge Racer experience that could be unlike any other. It has the pace, it has a solid structure and it has a new edge thanks to that magic 3D slider.

So it's just a shame that it doesn't have much new content to back that up. Even a dozen new tracks among the many dozens of recycled ones would have been exciting, but this time at least it was not to be. Instead we're given 3D-enhanced renditions of all our old favourites.

Ah well. The point should be that once Ridge Racer 3D gets going it's as horribly satisfying as any in recent memory. In fact, following a few hours' initial play, I found myself inquiring of our reviews editor whether it would be reasonable to "borrow" our Japanese 3DS to "verify my findings" over the next few days/weeks/years. And if I can't bring myself to part with it despite having logged a bottle-pissing World of Warcraft obsession's worth of time on Ridge Racers 1-7 and the handheld spinoffs, the old magic must still be working.

8/10

Everything's delivered with a railway-model prettiness, and from the orange bloom of sunset to the little animated details like the way the your Miis bob their heads when they're piloting the Rocket Belt the game's familiar setting manages to provide you with plenty of nice things to look at.

You could wish for more aircraft or a greater range of environments, perhaps, but Pilotwings ultimately hits an enjoyable sweet spot. It's intricate enough to encourage mastery, and roomy enough to tempt you back after the main event, while the skilfully simple presentation makes it perfect for demonstrating your latest gadget's 3D capabilities.

And, for more elderly players, it's nice to see that the spirit of the SNES survives. As an updating of an old favourite, this is a lovely piece of work; as a friendly shoving-off for a strange new handheld, it's wonderfully judged.

8/10

It's hard to see Super Street Fighter IV on 3DS becoming a serious alternative for high-level players, but no-one really expected it to. That Capcom gets so close is a tremendous achievement, and while let down on occasion by the awkwardness of the control layout, the game makes up for this through its innovation, depth, style and the endless joy of a fireball in the chops.

A great start for Capcom on 3DS, then, and further proof there's life in the old quarter-circle yet.
