Shantae Advance [GBA Beta Demo - UNRELEASED!]

[otakusoul22]

Lol Godzilla GBA music in a Shantae video....that's pure win.

[twilightwindwaker]

I heard this was never released and was canceled. Did they manage to make a portion of the game though?

[JefteNintendoNerd]

@twilightwindwaker DSiWare

[twilightwindwaker]

@JefteNintendoNerd Well that's a DS version of the game not the GBA one and I actually got the DS one on 3DS eshop.

[N4Y3F]

did anyone know where i can get the rom or is even a rom of it out?

[ElmntNinja]

@N4Y3F The game was never released.

[metroidfannumber1]

oh, i get what you did. you used godzilla music because you didn't write any music for the actual game yet. and since godzilla is cool, you used the menu music for the game and the character selected theme to the end thing.

[metroidfannumber1]

if i can't get the demo rom file, then can i get some sprite sheets for it?

[zeldafan215]

Nintendo Power said that wayforward also tried to make a shantae game for the gamecube, but you couldn't see anything because of her her hair.

[SipuraEin]

NOTE: This game is NOT a beta anymore! You can buy it from the DSi ware or 3DS store now. It's called Shantae Risky's revenge.

[59shado]

@SipuraEin it still is. Riskys Revenge is totaly different from this. the only thing thats the same is thfinding the egg part, the characters, and shantae herself. sorry iff i sound like a douche

[DrMiniY]

@SipuraEin Except not. Advance had completely different powers, areas, enemies, and storyline. The only similarities this game has with Risky's Revenge is the egg retrieval.

[PacGuy765]

someone should make her on MUGEN, thumbs up if you agree

[zsxdflip]

Is there a rom of this?

[zsxdflip]

Is there a ROM od this anywhere?

[RaycxellTorres]

Hey that music is from the Godzilla:Domination game,right down to the sound effect the game made when she got the egg

[Yohko86]

I think that Shantae would be a mix of Zelda and Castlevania, considering the gameplay, which consists of going between towns and getting directions/hints on where to go next, leading to a dungeon (normally); while in towns, you buy items and attacks and get information/hints from the townspeople. So it's more "Zeldavania" to me than Metrovania.

[DrMiniY]

@Yohko86

...but that's pretty much what Shantae is.

[strongo25]

@Yohko86 Metroidvania games have a lot of those aspects too. So no, it is still a Metroidvania type game.

[Curttehmurt]

I see they carried over a lot of the sprites for Risky's Revenge

[utoobninja]

Where did you get this game?

[triskalguilo]

Awesome music!

[girandpiggy95]

I officially love them for breaking the fourth wall :D

[Dailyman]

need the music to this shit

[Neocasko]

@Dailyman The music is from Godzilla: Domination.

[dMITIC]

is there any way to get the demo rom?

[violink4swords]

lol

"Yeah. I do that a lot in demos."

[MajorasWrath97]

You're fucking stupid. This game isn't even close to Castlevania.

[KyubiStewie]

@MajorasWrath97 It's considered Metroidvania, mind you.

[OkamiShiranui97]

@KyubiStewie I know that, I mean the actual scene, setting, characters. Stuff like that.

[KyubiStewie]

@OkamiShiranui97 Well, doesn't have to have similar settings, but the gameplay is similar to Castlevania, as well as Metroid and The Legend of Zelda (Zelda II, case in point).

[OkamiShiranui97]

@KyubiStewie Yep, in that regard, it is similar to Castlevania. I don't really think Zelda II was that Metroidvania-ish though, when I went through it, it was more linear, with not much backtracking to be done.

[Yohko86]

Seeing such a beautiful-looking game such as this be canceled makes my heart sink a little, but it perks up knowing that it'll be available for DSiWare this year Q1!

(Plus, as some more possible icing on the cake, they're planning on making three more episodic sequels!)

[ScReWaTtAcKeD]

bolo f***ing broke the 4th wall!!

[RedKingJoker]

That was an amazing dive, by the way.

[kimonji]

nice bass

[Doom2Guy]

The dialogue is made of win

[Grahamx227]

Wow... this actually looked great!

[AndresDragoon]

Or perhaps it's because Godzilla Domination was developed by WayForward, the same people who created Shantae and the fact this video is from the demo of the game. As the video itself states.

[DJFlare84]

I knew I recognized that music!

[GoldenJoe]

Damn.

Great art style, excellent camera panning, and that diving animation at the end was especially beautiful. Ridiculous quality for a demo.

[DieselGreek]

WHY stupid ass CAPCOM never released this game I'll never know!!! The first one for Gameboy Color was great!!!

[u61d]

Awesome music by Virt

[Skrubber]

Finnish this and put it up on DSi Ware.

[Sylverstone14]

It's coming to DSiWare in Q4 2009.

[DelliottP]

The GBA game could very well have been a different game entirely.

[bloodstone86]

Or in the 1st Quarter of 2010

[Meashayshay2]

I wished they'd release this for the GBA afterall. Not many games are released for it anymore. It looks so fun to play...I won't be able to play it on the Wii.

[RabidSonicFan]

I love how everyone is constantly breaking the 4th wall. XD

[edfreak9001]

i know the music. it's from the gba godzilla fighting game godzilla domination! the guy who worked on this also did work on that.

[DemonProjectionist]

You're shitting me. This is seriously coming out on WiiWare? No. Way. I gots to get my Wii Points then. I wonder if Lady Sia will get something as generous? Doubt it...

[Drainage64]

did anyone find a rom to this?!?like of the demo?!

[Ultim874]

They need to get thhe WiiWare one out there. Stat.

[conceitarturo]

heh, so they released footage from the demo? good chaps...nice working with them.

[EdmacZ]

The first was the best damn game boy game out there. I love Shantae and I love this game.So glad that a Wiiware game is in the works.

[tellis4293]

Holay what kind of GBA music is that sounds a little modern there, where is my 8 bit wonders?

[akumacornflakes]

The dialog in this is pretty funny.

[zichzich75]

Really want to buy this! But there's one thing that still irks me, and it's the same in the original Shantae: scrolling centered on Shantae all the time. There's no "extra camera movement" when you move left or right, to position you a quarter of the way across the screen. Ugh, it's hard to describe, but it gives you more "space" to see what's ahead of you on-screen.

[compewtore]

well, the gba screen is wider so it shouldn't be as much of a problem.... hopefully.

[Jiyaijo]

lol i think everybody knows what you ment,atleast i do,you said it right

[Gicane]

I know what you mean zichzich75, but seeing that was people's only complaint about Shantae, I'd say that's impressive

[EdmacZ]

I first read about it back in 2003. I was hoping this game would be released some day. I loved the first one on GBC.

[knuclear200x]

looks good for a game ive never heard of before.

[jayjayjay]

Man, I really hope they release this game. Sadly it seems that they may bump it to the DS.

[RockmanNeka]

hey, that's the reason i got a DS ;)

[PsychoJosh]

It's much better as a GBA game. I wouldn't like some contrived touch-screen element in the game that would completely ruin it.

[RockmanNeka]

well, i talked to Matt Bozon (the actual creator! :D) and he said it isn't gonna come on the DS, but it's gonna be on the DS and possibly on the PSP

[RockmanNeka]

erm, i mean GBA ^^;

[Gicane]

I'm hoping to see Shantae again on a console

[RockmanNeka]

well, i hope she stays on the Nintendo DS, because i feel it's more better that way ^^

[Bibilo2006]

It's being made as a downloadable game for the Wii.

[TtheHero]

I CANNOT wait for this to become Wiiware!

I loved the GBC game, and I'm looking forward to this next one!

[RedKingJoker]

Do you really expect the creators to ruin it like tha - oh wait Star Wars.
