Nintendojo: Toki Tori is one of those series that deserves more attention than it gets. Two Tribes is a small studio with an equally diminutive list of released games, but for the most part what the developer puts out is fun and memorable. Edge, Swords & Soldiers, and Toki Tori are arguably the biggest titles from the company, but the latter is easily its most recognizable franchise, with a modest (but devout!) following. The series first appeared on Game Boy Color with Toki Tori, published by Capcom back in 2001. In the years since, it has been remade for WiiWare, Wii U, and now 3DS. This latest effort was ported by developer Engine Software and boasts 3D visuals, while retaining the gameplay improvements of the Wii U version. Despite being a third rehash, Toki Tori 3D is another improvement of an already solid game, and for anyone who has yet to give the series a try, this is the perfect time to start.
Years after the original Game Boy Color game hit Virtual Console, here comes a remake.
Nintendo News: Toki Tori’s history is one that’s flown from platform to platform, virtually landing on any modern system with a digital storefront. The original game, published by Capcom in 2001, made its debut on the floundering Game Boy Color where it was ultimately overshadowed by Nintendo’s Game Boy Advance and its lineup of launch titles.
Nintendo Life: Toki Tori has been ported, tweaked and re-released a lot, with its blend of accessible but increasingly challenging puzzling appealing to gamers of various types on almost any platform you can name. Suitable for touch inputs or physical controls, it's playable on just about any system you want, though sadly we couldn't find a version for the Commodore 64.
