    I love these games. I imported the EU/UK physical so I could always have them. I wish it did come with sooner bonus material. I only own Klonoa 2 physically. I really hope it gets patched to hit 60fps constantly

    5:30 I still have the original copies of Klonoa 1 & 2. Neither had frame rate issues.
    7:27 After what they DID with the English language dub on the Wii version, I am not surprised they opted it out for this version.

    I've never played this series but I know it has a cult following that adores it. I'm not a fan of platformers but I might pick this up on sale.

    It’s on sale right now, but the frame rate update needs to come out before I buy

    Never played Klonoa before. I'll pick this up on a sale for sure!

    I’m deciding whether to start this (I imported it) or “Billy Rainbow of LEVIATHAN proportions something something cutesy game.”

    Hy guys.
    amazing gameplay

  • @aimeeandstevewebber4542

    I hope to pick this up eventually but it needs to drop in price with the minimal effort in terms of celebrating the series and the frame rate drops. It all needs to be spot on to justify the current price. Hope there is a drop soon.

    Played and beat both games on Switch. Ordered the physical Asia version from PlayAsia. Bit disappointed with two things.
    One, the pre-order bonus code doesn't work. Hopefully that gets rectified. Says the content hasn't released yet. It's a costume swap of Klonoa between the 2 Klonoa games.
    Secondly, the first Klonoa game felt off, and I finally figured out why. I came across another CZcams video comparing all the Klonoa games, and it went over the remake of the first game on Switch.
    Apparently the frame rate is tied to Klonoa's jump height, and that can make it harder to grab enemies in the air when normally they were easier to on PS1 and Wii.
    I actually have a third issue. The dialogue in the first game can go by way too fast. You'll have a line of dialogue that disappears after 2-3 seconds, then one word or explanation will remain on screen for 5 or more seconds. It's inconsistent.
    Lastly, the inconsistency of text automatically moving forward or requiring an input. Make it one or the other so I know if I need to press anything.
    As I'm typing, I keep thinking of more things. There was one scene in Klonoa 2 where it shows the individual asking for help when you are about to ring the second bell. The music is supposed to change there, but it doesn't.
    The caves in the La-Lakoosha level on Klonoa 2 doesn't have the right amount of lighting. It feels too bright and washed out, losing it's ambiance.
    I am happy that these got re-released. I just wish they could've come out the best that they could be.

    Not for me unfortunately, I'll stick to the Crash series instead.
