Nintendo Land Play Journal Entries Stagger Lanayru79 08/03/2015 6:35 PM Ah, finished the Prize set! A shade over 16 coins per for an average ... no way I'm dropping more coins just to win coins either. Had my fill of that diversion ... :p The comments here will contain a bit of a progress report throughout the week. I've made some headway on most of the seven Attractions I've started since setting Battle Quest and Blast down, and I'll gradually share. E Yeah! e 11 r 87 D Advertisement Share this Post 2 Share Embed Comment Benjamin 08/03/2015 7:18 PM Commenting for updates! Happy to hear about your progress. This game is full of easter eggs by the way. Have you noticed those Mii profiles on the left of the TV screen -- Stamp Champ, Tourist, and New Arrival? If you locate those Miis in your plaza then you get a small coin bonus. Yes, coins means little now, but it's a great diversion to cool off with when the main game burns you out. E Yeah♥ e 1 D Nintendoer 08/03/2015 7:23 PM Notifications! Yeah, this was a pretty nice launch title. It's still fun even today; I had a blast with the appropriately named Metroid attraction earlier with my sister. E Yeah! e 1 D NoFaceFred 08/03/2015 7:43 PM Ive-ga e-ma otifications-na! E Yeah! e 0 Blake 08/03/2015 8:04 PM I henceforth declare that save rain nor sheet nor shine, I shalth receive that which are called notifications from the one that goes by Stagger. There are no exceptions. At all. Except a glitch, ban, comment limit reached, meteor, giant moon, giant flood, running out of ketchup, or my Wi-Fi going out. Oh yeah, forgot aliens. E Yeah! e 0 Stagger 08/03/2015 8:05 PM This is easily my favorite of the single player attractions, althouth Breeze made some headway earlier today. I'm elated to make it through the second course, lots of tricky stuff here! I went pretty slow from the big rotating box on, as I hadn't seen much past there yet, but I got through. Thanks for joining in gents. I'll cycle through the other six games eventually. I'm really hooked on DK's. E Yeah! e 4 D Stagger 08/03/2015 8:11 PM @Benjamin: I was really into seeking out the Miis for those little coin bumps at first, and as your usual forecasting skills go, when I start to hit the wall pursuing the more advanced Stamps I'm sure to use that cool-down strategy. It is a pretty impressive launch title 'doer. I still find Yoshi's game insipid, although I at least got the first Stamp. The Octopus Dance ... I'm just sheepish when E Yeah! e 1 D Stagger 08/03/2015 8:15 PM I play it I guess. It's not that bad a rhythm game. I just feel kind of silly while partaking. I'm also pretty terrible at the Ninja Castle deal, but it is fun. I went much further in Breeze on a second session, and the difficulty curve is fantastic on it. Exemplary even ... need to deliver that special package and get through the extra levels still. In Falcon's Twister, I got the 5-Mistake Limit E Yeah! e 1 D Stagger 08/03/2015 8:18 PM Stamp and I didn't even know how. :p My best so far there is watching the tunnel close on the fourth extra stage. Back to Crash Course, the Stamps are mysterious to me. I've yet to look for a way to Cut Corners, and Skipping 30 Bananas seems related. I thought that would be a Double Princess Rescue, and have had it spoiled for me that there are four courses, so seeing how those are accessed ... E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 08/03/2015 8:22 PM is of great interest to me. Finally, Pikmin ... the difficulty curve there was abrupt at Stage 11. I've got four of the Extras left to clear. Benjamin, I think you'll be wrong for the first time about my Nintendoland future. I can't see ever enjoying that Attraction half as much as the LoZ and Metroid ones. Fred and Blake, do you guys have this game? Or are you just in pom pom practice? E Yeah! e 0 D Blake 08/03/2015 8:33 PM Nope. I've played it, and I really don't care about spoilers. E Yeah! e 1 Sciz 08/03/2015 10:04 PM Oh yeah, Cut Corners... Let's just say I shouldn't have gotten that one. E Yeah! e 0 D Benjamin 08/03/2015 10:51 PM Are you just playing through the Pikmin attraction or are you trying for Master rank at this time? Pikmin becomes much more enjoyable when you try for the latter, especially for the Bonus stages. I have a hint for you for the DK banana-skipping stamp as well as a few others: Nintendo Land's six single player attractions aren't entirely appropriately named. I'll let you explore that on your own. E Yeah! e 0 D CHELEUITTE 08/03/2015 10:58 PM I really like this game, my favorite attractions are pikmin, metroid and zelda!! E Yeah! e 1 D Benjamin 08/03/2015 11:00 PM ·Spoilers Following up on that hint, the developers cleverly decided that the hardest stamp in each single player attraction still had to be earned solo. Any assistance renders those stamps unachievable for the duration of that run. Note that this affects only the most challenging stamps -- the rest are still free game. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 08/03/2015 11:52 PM Benjamin bro, I'll read that spoiler momentarily ... I think I might have managed to kill two birds with one stone there. I found two ways to skip most of that section. I wouldn't call either very time efficient, but who knows with practice? I'm not trying to Master them yet, and I have a hard time seeing how that would make it more enjoyable. They added the elemental component way too late. E Yeah♥ e 1 D Stagger 08/03/2015 11:55 PM Now that I've read it ... I've heard the Wiimote can impact the single player games, but I'm not super interested. As for Pikmin, again, you've been the Nostradamus of my Nintendoland experience, but I'm skeptical. :p E Yeah! e 1 D Stagger 08/04/2015 12:07 AM Well, I'll take that one at least. I think I came up less than ten short of skipping 30, maybe less than five ... I'd have to check what was absent from that section. I've only found two I can skip in the second course so far, and I'm not even sure it's cumulative between them ... also, I'm at a loss as for how to even start the third course. E Yeah! e 2 D Stagger 08/04/2015 12:22 AM That was incredibly satisfying. I counted up the 14 I was able to skip in that section, and remembered the lengthier way I first figured out to get through Area 10 could be used to skip one too. All it took was a better than average leap at the end of Area 8 to make sure I had 30 skipped on the first course! Woohoo! With that, I can leave's DK's event alone for a while. Sleepy time. E Yeah!? e 2 D Stagger 08/04/2015 12:34 AM It occurs to me that skipping a section diminishes scoring too, so I don't think I'll try to perfect that move with pace for the time being ... since it won't help me catch up to Nintendoer even if it helped me get below his total time for the course. :p E Yeah! e 1 D Nintendoer 08/04/2015 6:09 AM Nope, the scores for the two sections are added together if you skip one. Notice how many more points I earned at the area 4 checkpoint? E Yeah♥ e 0 D Stagger 08/04/2015 7:53 AM Whoa! I hadn't looked at your breakdown closely ... I had just noticed that you one-timed the Area 10 move on the second score to improve a lot. And to think I was going to stay out of Crash Course today. :p Now I'll see if I can do better, ahd learn about that freefall on the third board ... E Yeah!? e 1 D Nintendoer 08/04/2015 8:05 AM Good luck! I wonder if the checkpoint skip you found is the same as mine... E Yeah! e 1 Stagger 08/04/2015 8:16 AM ·Spoilers I can't figure out a way to make it work reliably without going up to the L- button incline ramp, getting hooked at the split, then sliding back to the middle of the R-button bridge and dropping to the R-analog stick controlled platform. E Yeah♥ e 1 D Nintendoer 08/04/2015 8:27 AM That sounds kinda crazy. Definitely more complicated than the skip I use, haha. Which I'm sure you don't want me to tell you, but I will if you request it.
