this shit looks so fucking bad
the ponytail doesn't look like part of the character, it looks like background art she's placed in front of
what the fuck is this deviantart tier shit
>>715023951 >the ponytail doesn't look like part of the character
That's because it isn't, it's clearly a spacefuture energy projection and she's got super-short hair
>Got to talk to Matt and Cristina at PAX >Cristina literally knows I have a crush on Shantae now
Moving up in the world, I guess. I wish I still had that 2010 Nintendo Power with the Risky's Revenge writeup in it.

dude should just already offer a series of official lesbian porn doujins to fund new games... it worked for the team behind the Godannar anime.

I honestly think it'd be really cool if the other half-genies show up in future games, even just as NPCs. They were great(and really hot).

Pirate's Curse is pretty fucking good, it's also the game that completely ignores the dancing concept and gives Shantae more traditional equipment upgrades instead of cluncky dances
>>715028154
Got all of these except D and the one right below it since I don’t care for the chibi aesthetic. I remember Matt mentioning that those ones also sold the least so I can imagine this time around they didn’t do any like that. We’ll see.

Why doesn't Wayforward do a "SEGA" or "Nickelodeon" and license the Shantae IP to be made into a comic series? It'll probably give them more revenue and would actually turn Shantae into a franchise and not just series.

Matt has described Shantae and Wayforward’s relationship as sorta like Pokemon and TPCI.
The Bozons own the Shantae IP and series and license it out to Wayforward, who Matt happens to be a founding member and CCO of. If/When Matt retires from Wayforward, he’ll still retain full control of the series.

They're all moderately decent platformers with light metroidvania elements whose earnestness and cheesecake art doesn't quite make up for their simplicity or lack of polish. They're by no means bad games but when it's carried this hard by aesthetics it's difficult to distinguish secondaries who just jack off to the girls in bikinis from the idiots who have played five of them hoping the next one is going to be good (myself included).

It's not a design they're using for a Shantae game. That Shantae pops up at the end of a tech demo for something not related to Shantae, using a heavy sci-fi theme, so it's obvious she was just placed there as a fun 'what if.'

I played on release and found it immensely boring, and the story is dogshit with characters being way more retarded than in the rest of the games. The bomb scene especially.
But the biggest reason is that there's no Virt.
>>715026813 >hanging breasts
One of the most underrated fetishes out there. I don't ever really seek it out, but I can't recall even a single image with them that didn't make me hard as diamond.
>>715045068 >hanging boobas
I could do you a little favor anon. Name me a girl you wanna see with hanging boobas and i miiight Ai prooompt her for you here.
>>715039683 >villain tricks Shantae into having her hair cut >has to equip cybernetic hairpins >each one completely changes her hair whip to different weapons like a boomerang, sword, flail, etc
I think it'd be fun for a game.
