One of the things I wish I had talked more about in my review ofThe Wonderful 101is how fun it is to collect all the characters. Finding a new hero to join your crew combines the excitement of discovering a secretly bomb-able wall in TheLegend of Zeldawith the thrill of catching a new Pokemon, or finding a rare toy in a random, hole-in-the-wall toy store.
The game hasn’t sold in the multi-millions yet, which means that there aren’t legions of people digging into to excavate all its secrets, though the people who are playing it are playing ithard. WhileThe Wonderful 101may not be marketable, the people who like itlove it, and are playing it to death, working to unlock every inch of it, with plenty of stuff still to discover. While I’m yet to find any gameplay of Wonder Bayonetta in action, 3DSItalia has managed to get video of each of the game’s 115 playable characters… in their underwear.
The video is a bit fuzzy, so if any of you were actually interested in the erotic potential of seeing some relatively low-polygon, big-headed, little-bodied superheroes in their short and skivvies, you may be disappointed. I’m more impressed with how each and every character gets it’s own little logo and unique pose. So much attention to detail in this game. So sad that most don’t seem interested in giving it a try.
