Shovel Knight

Treasure Knight is pretty sweet.
 
Treasure knight looks like a big daddy from bioshock.
 
We've got a Bass/Vile type of character now.

As the Yin to Shovel Knight’s Yang, the Black Knight calls nobody master. Clad in obsidian armor, he hounds Shovel Knight to the ends of the Earth, spoiling for a battle. The Black Knight’s skill with the ShovelBlade rivals that of Shovel Knight, or so the Black Knight hopes to prove! While Shovel Knight is confused as to why he has this mysteriously relentless doppelganger, no number of humiliating defeats by Shovel Knight could dampen the Black Knight’s spirit: he will always rise up to fight again!

Pros: persistent, confident, goal-oriented
Cons: slightly inept, squeaky voice
 
New character:

Sometimes the best offense is a good defense, and Shield Knight knows it. Wielding a pair of Asymmetrical Shields, she deflects both melee and projectile attacks easily before getting into range and crushing her foes! For years, Shield Knight and Shovel Knight were inseparable partners in adventuring; with their expert use of unconventional weapons, they worked as one. Now, Shield Knight’s fate is unknown, but Shovel Knight’s goal is clear: he must journey to find Shield Knight, his lost beloved.

Pros: Confident, Powerful, and Tenacious

Cons: Occasional Recklessness
 
This game makes me want to go against my no downloading rule, I hate downloading. New Super Luigi U would've done it had it not gotten a retail date.
 
gotta admit the sprite work looks pretty nice, will be interesting to see how plays too.

Why don't you like downloading? Is it just personal preference, or is it for another reason?

Yeah, the release date can't come quickly enough.

Well, if he's like me, he likes to own tangible carts or discs of games, in case of system failure or deletion of files.

Anyway, I plan on getting this on 3DS. Can't wait!

Yep, I'd rather physically have it, that's why I got so excited when New Super Luigi U got a retail date as well.
