    I’m sure those who loved The Wonderful 101 the first time around will get a kick out of playing this game again on modern day consoles with nicer visuals. For those that hadn’t experienced it before though, this remaster feels like an artifact from a bygone age that couldn’t adapt to a new set of input’s without the Wii U controller. The combat and concept are still sound 7 years on. Everything else needed to be reworked or tweaked further.

    If you walked away from The Wonderful 101 early on, like I did back in 2013, Remastered is unlikely to change your opinion of the game’s character-action merits. Newcomers shouldn’t approach The Wonderful 101 Remastered like Platinum’s other games, e.g. Bayonetta or Astral Chain, in which big, easily readable combatants beat up bad guys a few at a time with balletic, combo-chaining grace. It’s more like pitting dueling riots against each other, which offers its own style of fun. The Nintendo Switch’s success has given many overlooked Wii U games a second chance to find a new audience, and The Wonderful 101 Remastered deserves to be experienced by more players.

    The Wonderful 101 Remastered is one of the most unique games out there, with excellent gameplay good story and impressive level design. BeforeThe Wonderful 101 Remastered is one of the most unique games out there, with excellent gameplay good story and impressive level design. Before we get to the praising this game has only one complaint, and that’s how long it takes to master the controls, it mostly takes about an hour or two but after that believe me the game is outstanding. The most unique aspect of this game is the gameplay, it’s Divided to many amazing segments but it’s main focus is the combat system which is awesome and unique. The story is surprisingly good, with moments that are beyond amazing, plus the soundtrack is great. There is also cool bonuses like a gallery and a neat multiplayer mode. The Wonderful 101 Remastered is the definition of unique, it’s amazing gameplay and story supported by an excellent soundtrack, a must play indeed. (Amazing 4/5) Your Missing Out!… Full Review »

    - O game possui ideias muito originais, dificilmente encontrará algo parecido.

    Contras:
    - O jogo dura mais do que o ideal.
    - Um alto ponto negativo nesse game é sua jogabilidade tendo que moldar suas armas através do analógico que nem sempre funciona da maneira que se espera atrapalhando muito em vários momentos cruciais.
    - Dificuldade, assim como Dmc e Bayonetta ranks são dados conforme sua proeza durante as missões mas por conta da jogabilidade ser um ponto negativo acaba que a dificuldade só piora a experiência tornando tudo frustrante.
    - Excesso de Kick-time events, pensa num jogo com kick-time, esse jogo é o cúmulo do exagero nesse quesito nem se compara aos kick-times de God of war ou alguns jogos interativos, simplesmente o extremo do irritante

    Conclusão: The wonderful é um hack-slash com ótimas ideias porém com uma execução duvidosa, o jogo foi originalmente planejado para Wii u o que explica muita coisa sobre seus defeitos, toda questão de desenhar suas armas para combater seus inimigos com cenas épicas e quick-times empolgantes parece funcionar muito bem numa jogatina frenética utilizando o controle do Wii u mas no Ps4 simplesmente só me soa irritante e desengonçado.

    Eu fico na duvida se recomendo ou não esse game, sinceramente deixo por sua escolha, se esta interessado em algo único com ideias muito originais eu recomendaria...
    Porém saiba que poderá passar muita raiva se jogar o game em sua dificuldade padrão sem nenhum auxilio, para facilitar você pode usar um item chamado "automatic" que impede que suas construções de armas sejam desfeitas enquanto esta em processo de construção porém seu rank final é afetado.

    Enfim espero que minha review tenha lhe esclarecido um pouco sobre The wonderful 101, infelizmente sendo uma decepção pra mim porém não posso negar que esse game é bem criativo e original.    … Full Review »
