Awesome review. This game looks great. I'm curious why Nintendo decided to call this Tropical Freeze because I immediately thought the game would be all ice levels but apparently it isn't (thank god). Wii U already has two A+ titles... I'm going to probably pick up a Wii U soon because the games are getting great and hard to resist.

Tropicals Breeze is the best looking platforming game ever made. Great review critic.

"Tropical Freeze" sounds like a Slurpee flavor. Maybe they were originally planning to do a product tie-in with 7-Eleven.

Sounds like I'm not the only one turned off by the name Tropical Freeze. I don't know what the sales figures are for this, but I suspect they are being adversely affected by this stupid, stupid name.
First they call the system Wii U, which is ridiculous, and then they give their best game an awful name. Come to think about it, Super Mario 3D World is pretty bad too!
Sometimes I wonder if the management at Nintendo has any idea what they are doing. Too bad they don't hire me; I think I could have helped them avoid a lot of these landmines they seem to be placing in their own path.

I don't think the name is that bad, but the Wii U having a much lower install base then the Wii so far probably has something to do with the dissapointing sales.

Donkey Kong should probably get sponsored by Taco Bell... Loltropicalfreeze.

Thank god.
Wow, I can't believe you loved this game so much. Are you serious when you call it the best platformer ever? I really want to play this game now.

For those still on the fence about this awesome game, it's on sale right now at Amazon (or Walmart online, but the Critic doesn't get a kickback from them so forget that) for only $39.99:

If you have a Wii U and don't own this game, I have to ask what you've been smoking.
