What went wrong? It's one of the biggest flops this year alongside Avengers
Battletoads 2020
it was never going to do well. battletoads wasn't a well loved franchise back in it's day, Zig Forums meme'd it into existence and if it wasn't for the memes no one would even realize it existed.
shoulda made her ass an actual dump-truck

Kek deserved

It's on gamepass so there is no reason to buy it if you have a subscription.
I hadn't even realized it came out, not that i planned on playing it anyways though
Microsoft is going by the Netflix model of production now thanks to game pass.
It doesn't matter how shit the game is, or if nobody plays it. So long as the subs are good who cares if you fund a bunch of trash.
what is it with jews and scat
Real talk, where people actually craving for a new Battletoads? Let alone one with this artstyle and humor? It's so disrespectful for the franchise.
Their mistake was that they didn't make a retro pixelshit game like Shovel Knight
Would have gotten decent sales on Switch.
Is this real?
brb gonna fap
If it was done like Battlemaniacs, then I would have been on board.
It was literally because they redesigned Dark Queen into a pile of shit with zero attractive. The coomerbux are NOT to be underestimated.
I would’ve liked a new battletoads if it was made by people who actually gave a fuck about the originals
NO ONLINE MULITPLAYER
>have 2 old friends
>we all live in different countries as adults
>BT is coming with 3 player co-op in an age when everything is connected and online is priority
>but it is just offline like every* fucking (side scrolling) brawler game in the last 20 years that was made for co-op
*99.9%
textbook example of GO WOKE GO BROKE
Even toddlers know this is dogshit
Too much SJW, rectons and fourth wall breaks, even saying that Battletoads was a dream all along and none of the games ever happened.
Might get a port down the line like both Ori games did
Why? A colorful classic series with legacy on Nintendo's platforms was bound to do well with its crowd.
If only.
battletoads has always been a shitty meme game that only gained a “following” because it was badly designed 99% of the people who even knew about the game have never touched it. what the fuck were they really expecting?
It's free on xbox or Microsoft store, no shit that its sales sucks on steam. Only babies would pay the full price to get it instead of havit it at free.99 cent with gamepass
Kys zoomer battletoads is a fucking classic
I had no idea this even existed.
all I saw and continue to see of this game is the same unfunny dump truck joke, its a wonder why this failed
It got the amount of respect a teenage mutant ninja turtle clone deserved.
The only good thing about this trash is that it brought some pretty decent fetish pics into the world.
This game is about 12 years too late when the gamestop prank call meme was a thing
It spits on the original and is filled with shit humor, kill yourself for defending this garbage.
Seriously. MS trying to be "hip" by waving around Battletoads in various ways over the last few years is legitimately one of the most pathetic things in the industry. Nobody has nostalgia for it. It's a combination of people repeating hearsay shit about how unfair the bike level was and the meme about calling the fucking pawn stars or gamestop asking for it.
Nobody has ever given a fuck about Battletoads but somehow we just keep going without the suits realizing that.
Battletoads is one of the most technically impressive NES games and plays insanely well for a western platformer in 1991. It just so happens to be extremely difficult too.
Battetoads was never good.
>What went wrong?
It was a big scam.
A shovelware game studio took a shot by offering to work under Microsoft using one of their abandoned IPs, and Microsoft foolishly bit.
Dlala just used the Battletoads license as a stepping stool to get their name out there, it was obvious they never gave a shit about Battletoads.
It still worked out for them, because despite Battletoads not having a new game since over 24 years ago, Battletoads was still more relevant than the entirety of Dlala.
In the end Dlala got away with a boosted business portfolio and development funds from Microsoft, while the consumers got a huge pile of cow shit.
I tried to like the game but it wasn't fun at all. Even wayforward would have done a better job.
Microsoft is the worst major game publisher.
