Have you ever played a Castlevania game and thought it was holding your hand too much? Is getting Samus to take her armor off just not enough of a challenge for you anymore? Do you look at the platforming gauntlet at the end of Shantae and the Pirate's Curse and just yawn? If so, then you might be on the same wavelength as the certifiably insane folks at Nigoro, and their cult hit explore-em-up La Mulana EX might just be the game for you. If not, you'll probably still get a kick out of the game... just don't plan on ever beating it.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Thanks to the timing of the Vita’s release and its relative power compared to the home consoles at the time (PS3 & Xbox 360), it saw the benefit of a number of these late ports which have remained the ‘definitive’ versions to this day. It’s these games that I’m aiming to look at in this article – titles that are best on Vita by virtue of extra bells and whistles, tweaked controls, and content, or in some cases just a general feeling that Sony’s portable hardware is the most enjoyable way to play."
La-Mulana EX is available today for PS Vita as both a Collector’s and Standard Edition exclusively at Limited Run Games at 10 AM Eastern Time.
