Does Namco's Klonoa remake manage to capture the magic of the original Playstation release?
Before true 3D platformers became all the rage, 2.5D platformers began showing up on Sony's Playstation console during the 32-bit era. These games featured 3D visuals, but kept the player on a 2D pathway through the game. This would allow developers the...

Interesting. Radared.
If you don't have this game yet, go now and get it!
When's it coming to EU/AU?!
I played the heck out of "Klonoa" for the Wii and I have to agree with Corbie that it's a fun game! I love 2.5D platformers and hopefully we'll see the style of game experience a revival. Klonoa can be a shorter experience, but the item collection aspect of the game adds a little replay. The end of the game will definitely test your platformer skills.
I wonder how much "Icarian: Kindred Spirits (WiiWare)" will be like this?
wow, the first time i played klonoa it was on gameboy and now its on wii? o_0
Awesome game, love how it has the old school challenge and looks & sounds great. Oh and the voice is pretty cool too.
Hmmm idk, is these better than a boy and his blob, I don't think so.... Anyways I will investigate more.
Now aside from my obvious love for Klonoa, the games is incredible. Unfortunately, the game itself is easier than the PS1 version, but I still got the most fun out of it. The completion bonus was okay, but the costumes are really cool, especially since you're given Klonoa's attire to wear after you beated the game. A thing that I find that Klonoa falls short at, are the reverse challenges. Sure they're hard, but beating all of the challenges doesn't give you anything, but a little bit of bragging rights. Despite the game having some flaws, there are a lot more good parts than the bad parts. The English voice acting is okay, but cringey.
