Not too low, actually. I believe she was at least top 20 during the Smash Ballot, and two games of hers became ports to the Switch. So it's a possibility, she could have one of the most unique move sets in the game.
T. T.: We'll see, she has a pretty good history for just four games. But I think she'll make a great addition, I wouldn't mind if she becomes a Mii Costume or a trophy either, at least it would be something.
I played the normal Game on the Wii U and the DLCs on the Switch, the Risky Boots DLC is the best because i had the most fun while i played it. I have played him so many times. Friends to the End was not so much fun and i have don't cleared it yet. I hope this long time announced costumes are more fun.
Now that the ultimate edition is announced for the public, then that means there is only one more thing to be excited for now. Shantae V :D make it come true WayForward 0/
The one game I tried to get on the Wii U, but wasn’t able to. Now that it’s on the Switch, I can get it with all the content and more! Thank you wayfoward! Now where’s that Shantae amiibo? I NEED IT DESPERATELY
This is great for those who haven't purchased the game yet but as an early adopter, I feel like I was punished since there isn't any way to get all the new content without paying full price AGAIN.
Exactly this, I feel kinda cheated because there is no "Ultimate Edition Upgrade" or something for people who already bought the game and some of the DLC
Sebasbrawler I know that Beach Mode Shantae, Ninja Mode Shantae, and Mighty Switch Force Mode Shantae will be available in the digital version as paid DLC later this month (April 10 I think) Can't say the same for the previously backer only content though like Classic Risky or Blue Shantae. That all seems to be in the Ultimate Edition.
harrijwsesuorg As a backer who's played Tinkerbat, don't expect too much. At least compared to the other other ones, it may feel a bit underwhelming. It's still fun and all, but it's a novelty.
This is why I love Wayforward! Unlike most companys, this isnt just some way to sell all the same stuff all over again. I actually have some cool new things to do that makes it worth playing and buying this game again! Love you guys!
Can’t wait to get the Switch version; definitely worth skipping the Wii U version and waiting till the physical copies came out! Here’s hoping that WayForward decides to make the next Shantae game a 3D platformer!
The Ultimate Edition was originally supposed to come out on April 3rd, but when I went to EB Games (the Canadian version of GameStop) to pick up my pre-ordered copy on that day, I was surprised to find out that the release date for this game has been moved up all the way to the 24th. Which means I had to wait another 3 weeks before I could finally pick up!
Glad l restrained myself from buying it on release now ill be able to enjoy this sweet platformer to the fullest on the switch, one of the very few games I'm willing to preorder... thanks wayforward
Beat this game three times on PC, played through it again on Wii U along with Pirate Queen's Quest... ...preordered my copy last night. Lol, I am very excited!
I may already have the game on Wii U, but i’m willing to get this package for my Switch. I heard it was coming with a soundtrack CD too if i’m not mistaken.
I still like Pirates Curse more than this game, but I enjoyed it regardless. Honestly I'm just glad there's still support for this series, and I really hope she makes it in the new Smash game/updated version. Seriously Shantea's like in my top 5 list of characters that I want to be in Smash.
SonicJBoom agree First let's try asking for more known characters like shovel knight but... Did you know that sakurai has a criteria for selecting characters? Because people don't seem to realize It when they begin to yell fanatically about having rundas (from metroid ) in smash brothers
I don’t get how a non funded game turned out to be way better than one that was funded 900k. Did they not put effort into it because they stopped developing when the money ran out?
You do know that Shantae is actually officially more popular than Shovel Knight? Sooo Shovel Knight made it in as an Assist Trophy! Making room for an playable Indie Game Character! 😘
537CH me too I have vanilla Wii U version and Dlc Switch version, so I don't really feel like paying for the same game 3 times. I really hope they're gonna release this new stuff later as paid DLC, or else that would really suck
So would have I. I would have waited just a few more months before my second purchase of the game (I downloaded it on both my Wii U in late 2016 and on my Switch about two months ago)...
I "acquired" the regular edition of this for the Vita, but because I want to support more small creators and also because I love every game they've made this far, I'm buying this version for the Switch. I hate being nickel and dimed by DLC, so thank you for releasing an all inclusive edition.
Well, I see no reason to skip out on this game now. It may not be Pirate's Curse, but with all this included content there's definitely content worth exploring.
Ok, this looks freakin awesome! I don't even mind buying the game again if I can have it on the Switch with all of the extra modes and stuff. Besides, Shantae's great, she deserves it honestly.
Shantae for smash 5 Edit: here's some ideas I have for alts for Shantae if she gets in smash Shantae but with Risky Boots color pallet Shantae with Rottytops pallet Pirates Curse Shantae Pajama Shantae Ninja Shantae Mighty Switch Force Shantae Beach Shantae
Looking back, I wish we could have managed to implement the two bonus chapters from the missed stretch Goals from the Kickstarter Campaign. "A Dish served cold" and "Clockwork Night"
I still haven't finished the game because I can't find the last item and I refuse to look up a guide. I was just thinking about getting the DLC before I saw this. I am not a hardcore Shantae fan but I really like the games since I started with Pirates Curse. Luckily this game comes out before my next paycheck and will get Day One for sure. Also Shantae for Smash! If we need to make a petition, let's get that started!
When will there be a new shantae game be released like i am excited for Ultimate Edition but we have lots of ports and re released too can we try making a new shantae
What ever happened to making a simply good Shantae game with puzzle elements, charming cartoons and anime like characters, and a deep story that made you feel for the characters? This game is all about gimmick ideas.
Aye you know what? Was keeping money for KH3 but really out of nowhere got some hype listening remixes and ost of Shantae's games, just got this one as soon as it came on steam, it's a cool game, great work there

Shantae for Smash.
Benorian Hardback definitely
Hell yeah
Benorian Hardback That seriously needs to be a thing. Let it happen Sakurai.
Not too low, actually. I believe she was at least top 20 during the Smash Ballot, and two games of hers became ports to the Switch. So it's a possibility, she could have one of the most unique move sets in the game.

Dang it Shantae is just too adorable for me to ignore. I'll buy it again for you guys. I hope you're happy.
If i pay for The regular versión AND The DLC......Is The same that The Ultimate editionnor whats?
@@enriqueu1319 The ultimate edition has all the DLC, extra difficulty options, and alternate costumes.
@@The_Red_Lucario BUT if i bought The original Game with The DLC...Is there Anya way to Get The Ultimate edition bonuses?
My life is complete.
Nope! Just wait until you get into Smash! 😘
@@Christin-Eleven still waiting...
@@omaegaa It's coming! Just wait and see! 😎
@@Christin-Eleven what’re you a leaker or something? The most she’ll probably get is a mii costume.
Okay
This is going to be the third time I have payed for this game. Can't wait to have this on Switch!
I backed this for like $250 and have everything I could ever want from it, but I too am getting this on Switch because that portability my dude.
KinglyPeasant me too
I played the normal Game on the Wii U and the DLCs on the Switch, the Risky Boots DLC is the best because i had the most fun while i played it. I have played him so many times. Friends to the End was not so much fun and i have don't cleared it yet. I hope this long time announced costumes are more fun.
same thing here wiiu digital on switch and now physical on switch
Right there with you
This is excellent for newcomers to this game and in my opinion, worth every penny.
This is cool they have ninja shantae
SOOOO senran kagura dlc anyone?
Fishy army huh?
Beach Shantae is precious and must be protected at all costs
NoOtherPersona I'll never protect her.
Guess im buying this for the 4th time. Worth it
This game is an utter work of art!! The design, the animation, the gameplay, the music...it's the best platformer I've played in years! Well done!!
Seeing the Mighty Switch Force costume in action, complete with sound effects, put a huge smile on my face.
happy 3rd anniversary shantae: half genie hero ultimate edition!!! :3
Ninja Shantae will be the first thing I'll play 👀
careful its a little harder than the real game. the worst has to be beach mode.
Pepper an adventure is no fun if it's too easy unless it's Kirby
Mectro15 lol same
Careful, she's really really sticky. Can barely jump near a wall without sticking to it.
Now that the ultimate edition is announced for the public, then that means there is only one more thing to be excited for now. Shantae V :D make it come true WayForward 0/
Ev'ixyn or a shantae 1 remake, that would also be cool
Ev'ixyn Or Shantae in Smash5
I love both answers :)
#ShantaeForSmash spread the word boys!
Ev'ixyn ... I somehow misread 'Shantae V' as 'Shantae VR', and am now somewhat disappointed that the latter will likely never be an "official" thing
YAY!!! ALL PREVIOUSLY KICKSTARTER BACKER-EXCLUSIVE CONTENT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR NON-BACKERS TOO!!
Pre-ordered the heck out of this! I hope you guys do an HD remaster of Pirate’s Curse in physical form!
That is so...
COOL AND AMAZING
The one game I tried to get on the Wii U, but wasn’t able to. Now that it’s on the Switch, I can get it with all the content and more! Thank you wayfoward! Now where’s that Shantae amiibo? I NEED IT DESPERATELY
Metalguy40 I agree, we need Shantae Amiibo
This is why I want her in Smash Bros Switch, I will keep praying for her to be on that game *in tears of joy and sadness*.
Thanks for going above & beyond what Kickstarter goals were met. Wayforward deserves more recognition for service (and quality) like this
This is great for those who haven't purchased the game yet but as an early adopter, I feel like I was punished since there isn't any way to get all the new content without paying full price AGAIN.
Exactly this, I feel kinda cheated because there is no "Ultimate Edition Upgrade" or something for people who already bought the game and some of the DLC

Can't say the same for the previously backer only content though like Classic Risky or Blue Shantae. That all seems to be in the Ultimate Edition.
I kind of get you, but at the same time, i'm happy to have another physical Shantae game, and it gives me a reason for another playthrough.
harrijwsesuorg As a backer who's played Tinkerbat, don't expect too much. At least compared to the other other ones, it may feel a bit underwhelming. It's still fun and all, but it's a novelty.
Already bought this game once...
Glad to see them using the best song for the Trailer
Way Forward is officially my favorite game developer.
Here's hoping for future games. Please wayforward, continue the series.
Shantae for Smash?
No
YES
*Cynic _0*
Finally a man of culture in this comment section
Omg, I wish the franchise never dies out.
Preordered the physical copy for my Switch
This is why I love Wayforward!
Unlike most companys, this isnt just some way to sell all the same stuff all over again.
I actually have some cool new things to do that makes it worth playing and buying this game again!
Love you guys!
Just preordered. Cannot wait for this game and the soundtrack CD
Having already beat 1/2 genie hero and its first expansion, Pirate Queen's Quest, I can't wait to get this on Switch. A definite 10/10 game!
Just got this game last week, it's amazing 😍
Already pre-ordered a physical copy for Switch. :)
ArtFenixAsordis me too
Can't wait, as It comes with the soundtrack, the artwork and the extra content, like the tinkerbat transformation
:-)
I Don't Need it,I Don't need it....
*I N E E D I T*
I got this game and all its DLC on the Wii U. But I'm totally getting it again on Switch. I absolutley love this game. Can't wait for Shantae 5!!!
0:24 Wow Clever
Pre-ordered! I've wanted to play this for a long time and this is the perfect chance.
Shantae for smash with the costumes as alts! Shantae in smash would make me flip!
You know a games special when you have no issue in buying it multiple times.
Retail “Day One” editions also come with an art book and music CD!
YES YES YES CANT WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT ON SWITCH
Been playing the regular version on switch. The game is fantastic.

Time to revive my Shantae obsession again
With that... I think Wayfoward just completed it's kickstarter goals, now that everything's been implimented into the Ultimate edition.
Whelp, looks like I'm gunna *have* to get the game now.
Can't wait to play this gem
Something is wrong, I keep rubbing my wallet on the screen but nothing is happening!
FeyWinter Fox Try rubbing it on Amazon like I just did
OH YEAH! Now it's working! Thanks!
Try using your meat (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Can’t wait 😊!!!
Can’t wait to get the Switch version; definitely worth skipping the Wii U version and waiting till the physical copies came out! Here’s hoping that WayForward decides to make the next Shantae game a 3D platformer!

Seriously Shantea's like in my top 5 list of characters that I want to be in Smash.
gamer504 I would really like her in smash, but in terms of indie characters I would think shovel knight would have a better chance of getting in
SonicJBoom agree
First let's try asking for more known characters like shovel knight but...
Did you know that sakurai has a criteria for selecting characters? Because people don't seem to realize It when they begin to yell fanatically about having rundas (from metroid ) in smash brothers

@@Christin-Eleven How is Shantae more populair when Shovel Knight sold 2 Million, Shantae doesn't even come close too that
If I had known they were gonna do this I would have waited for the ultimate edition...
537CH me too
I have vanilla Wii U version and Dlc Switch version, so I don't really feel like paying for the same game 3 times.

Thanks for releasing backers content, to the rest of your fans.
I will happily buy this game again

Yes, i'll finaly buy this game on my Wii U!
I’m convinced to BUY THIS GAME AGAIN ITS JUST REALLY GOOD
Already pre-order it
yes thank you
Well, I see no reason to skip out on this game now. It may not be Pirate's Curse, but with all this included content there's definitely content worth exploring.
Nice to see the Backer Blues showing up here! Now I can have it on my Switch.
honestly i own the game and the dlcs but to support you guys AND AND GET A PHYSICAL COPY IN RETURN, HELL YEAH im buying this
Have this on pre order for awhile on the Switch. Can't wait
So much fan service i love it must buy for me! never played shantae
Black Creed.Network I really recommend playing the Shantae games, they're really fun and humorous!
Cartoon68 I'll give it a try i always wanted to play the series I'll be getting this game thanks for the recommendation
Ok, this looks freakin awesome! I don't even mind buying the game again if I can have it on the Switch with all of the extra modes and stuff. Besides, Shantae's great, she deserves it honestly.
Wish I could have had a hardcopy of that, with a nice big poster
Shantae for smash 5
Edit: here's some ideas I have for alts for Shantae if she gets in smash
Shantae but with Risky Boots color pallet
Shantae with Rottytops pallet
Pirates Curse Shantae
Pajama Shantae
Ninja Shantae
Mighty Switch Force Shantae
Beach Shantae
YES
Looking back, I wish we could have managed to implement the two bonus chapters from the missed stretch Goals from the Kickstarter Campaign.
"A Dish served cold" and "Clockwork Night"

I didnt like that you guys pushed back the release date, but ill wait gladly
Shantae 😩💞💞
A Tinkerbat Transformation? Bandit Town will became reachable without tedious shapeshifting again? Wait, wrong game.
This was a Kickstarter Exclusive thing for a special tier of backers.
Awesome! Thank you, WayForward!
0:52 "Eat balls"? Suggestive themes all right
BEACH ball, you dumb idiot.
Clearly, someone doesn't understand what "suggestive" means...
Preordered and ready to go!! Super hyped and excited! 😃😍🙌
happy 4th anniversary shantae: 1/2 genie hero!!! :3
What ever happened to making a simply good Shantae game with puzzle elements, charming cartoons and anime like characters, and a deep story that made you feel for the characters?
This game is all about gimmick ideas.
YowLife Productions
It’s simply fanservice they didn’t have a good budget back then.
As the saying goes "good things come to those who wait" #gimmegimme
Pre-ordered the ultimate edition and can't wait to play this game for the first time!
Looks amazing!!! I'm going to buy a Nintendo switch just so I can play this game.
Yes!
I'm so excited!!!!
Yes Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ITS BEATIFUL!!!
CAN’T WAIT
When will this be released?

You can never have this game enough 😍😍😍😍
Aye you know what? Was keeping money for KH3 but really out of nowhere got some hype listening remixes and ost of Shantae's games, just got this one as soon as it came on steam, it's a cool game, great work there
My switch collection just got bigger.
Definitely a day one buy!
Whelp, I was planning on getting this for my Switch anyway...
When does it come out?
April 24
Great series.. I just wish new stages were added as well as characters.. I’ll get it for the switch.. Already have the standard edition on PS Vita
