IS IT OUT ON FRIDAY??????

I've tried to ask, but nobody seems to answer. I've tried in the Rolando thread. I've tried in other threads...what the hell?

I just want to know if it is supposed to be out then, or if it is being submitted then, or any information on it...PLEASE!!!!

Huge hype around Rolando.

Don't we risk to expect too much from this game?

I thought that the official release date was Friday. I can't remember where I read it now, but I could have sworn it was from ngmoco's mouth, so to speak. But I had a twitter reply from them earlier today when I asked if we were still looking at a Friday release date, and they said no official release date had been announced.

However it is showing up on the AppStore search auto-fill, which I believe indicates that an app has been submitted. So, in answer to your question, I dunno, hopefully...

I think I see where the 12th came from. On Nov 19th, Neil @ ngmoco stated on twitter that they'd be announcing a release date. Shortly after, they had a video on their website that Matt on these forums (http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?threadid=1385) said ended with this release date, but the video was quickly pulled and replaced with one sans the specific date. Perhaps they couldn't commit to a date due to the nature of Apple's unpredictable approval process for app submission. Who knows...

what is a tmac34? I just get sick of the smart ass comments. i asked a simple question, several times now, and just wanted to know if anyone had heard anything. obviously others had also heard something about the 12th, and i just wanted to verify.

I realize it's just a game, Daniglue. (Again, just smart ass comments)

Tmac34 is a user that brewstermax got banned. that's why it was funny. And you already got a release date crappy as it may be, it will come out monday.

P.S: WTF does "FTW" stand for?

Maybe you should have done your own research. If someone found out the release date that is not on the development or marketing team, then you could have found out that information too. Learn how to use google before you get into tenth grade.

Your being nervous for this is just pathetic.
I can't wait Rolando's release too, but you really sound sick.

No one knows when it's going to be released.
ngmoco said after dr.awesome and dropship.
Dr.awesome has been released. Dropship will be out tomorrow.

1+1=2

I can guess it will be available the day after tomorrow or a bit later.
No need to be nervous for Rolando, it's just coming soon :)

12-10-2008, 04:54 PM

Daniglue. Did i ever say i was nervous? What the hell is your problem? I WAS JUST ASKING A QUESTION. DROP IT.

I did some research also, but i figured someone on this thread could answer me quicker. Sorry for thinking that. I'll never ask another question.

And now for some more smart-ass comments, i'm sure...

I hope Rolando comes out tomorrow. My dad and I LOVE Loco Roco and there is no way we could possibly go without buying Rolando for the iPhone!!! Tilting is so much better than having to press R and L buttons on the PSP! :D

SO excited!

People who have ever played Loco Roco can tell you why. I'll just tell you right now it's the best game ever ;)

Wow, and to think I probably wont even get it. I like Dr. Awesome and will like Dropship. Rolando= not so much. I may get it since I like platformers, but not worth $10. Give it iPhone 4G time and it will be $3.

I'm people....but crazy is an exaggeration, more like megaextreme excitement with casual surges of adrenaline.

Nah, just kidding. I'm just expecting to see it and how it implements touch controls on the by apple designed device that has brought some joy to us all.:D

I don't own any PS3, Wii or XBOX, but Little Big Planet looks really amazing!
It makes me feel like to get a PS3.

For me, that's the best game ever.
The game 2.0

I'd really like to try that...

People have played it already. It's made to be exactly like a game called Loco Roco for the PSP and it's just extremely fun. The music is awesome and funny. The gameplay is original and I love the artwork.

Just trust me, the game is gonna be awesome.

I hope you guys are right, its just that I have come to experience that, the more hyped a game is, the more likely its going to suck.

Yep. Remember Kroll people. In fact I'm waiting for NFS to suck. But I think that it will be good, since ngmoco has taken it on, and they make great games.

Much as I hate to wait (hell, the 12th is my birthday! This was going to be my gift to myself :p), I think it makes sense that it will come out next week.

Reason? Dropship. It's confirmed to come out tomorrow (the 11th), and I think there will be a lot of people who are going to be either too busy playing it to pay attention to Rolando, or simply not wanting to buy two relatively high-priced games in two days. From a marketing point of view, it might be better for ngmoco to do things one-at-at-time.

That said, it *really* sucks to wait for a game that looks this good :mad:

when u go to the app store on your iphone/itouch type in rolando and dropship in the search bar, it comes up its just an invailed link. Thats means the release for both the games r immentiant! CANT WAIT!! :)
