Topic: VC Recommendations thread

Get Actraiser, it's awesomesauce! It's both a fun sim game("fun" in a sense that even you could agree with), and an interesting and challenging action game.

Knowing you, I honestly believe you wouldn't have the patience for Castlevania 3. Seriously, that game IS cheap, and it IS unfair. It's still a fun, well-crafted game, but without the right amount of patience and skill, it'll be very difficult to appreciate it. Go ahead, get any other game in the series - I highly recommend them all - but for you, I think you'd be better off skipping CV3, especially as your first in the series.

F-Zero X of course. Chances are it's nothing like the ones you've played, and it's top-notch and a blast the whole way through! Don't forget to try out the Deathrace mode, too.

Thanks for the VC advice. You describe F-Zero X as a very satisfying and fun racing game. I'll be sure to pick it up as soon as I get my next points card.

But I'm debating if i should get Max & the Magic Marker or Mega Man 10 as my 4th WiiWare game .

Yee.

Here's the demo for Max & the Magic Maker, if you need help deciding. Remember that platforming will be a bit easier with a controller, but drawing will be a smidge more difficult with the Wii remote.

Thanks, Mickeymac.

I'm going to get Max & The Magic Marker. I'm going to get Mega Man 10 in early April (So I can play Bass!).

Thanks Again.

OK thanx, Mickeymac. And yes I cannot stand cheap games or games with seemingly unfair difficulty levels (FFIV DS and Blaster Master cough). Will probably pick Actraiser up on my next Wii Points Card, along with (maybe) Rondo of Blood.

I have 500 points and am in the same dilemma as before.

Games I have or don't want:

• Blaster Master
• Kirby's Adventure
• Mega Man Series (Played 9 & 10 to death)
• Super Mario Bros. Series
• Legend of Zelda
• Kid Icarus
• StarTropics
• Contra Series

Any help would be appreciated.

Castlevania

Alex Kidd In Miracle World

Adventures of Lolo

Mega Man 2 is awesome even if you've played 9 and 10.

• Wrecking Crew (NES)
• Wario's Woods (NES)
• Pinball (NES)
• Wonder Boy (MS)
• Wonder Boy II: Wonder Boy in Monster Land (MS)
• Wonder Boy III: The Dragon's Trap (MS)
• Andrew Braybrook's Paradroid (C64)
• Andrew Braybrook's Uridium (C64)

I have 2000 wii points left from downloading Max & The Magic Marker and F-Zero X and I want to know what good games should i spend the rest of my points on.

All help will be appreciated.

-Adventures of Lolo is a great puzzler. I've played through it twice already. (500 pts)
-Excitebike (500 pts)
-Sonic 2 (Master System) 500 pts
-Castlevania III (500 pts)
-Punch Out (500 pts)

I'm also think about getting Tecmo Bowl. But I don't know which version I should get.

Get the NES version. Or wait for Tecmo Super Bowl (why is that not on the service yet?). _{probably licensing issues I suppose}

In the meantime you should just get Ys Book I & II if you haven't already.

Why the NES version?

Well, you could take a look at the reviews here.
The arcade version looks better but is more simplistic. You don't get to choose your play - you simply hike the ball then decide whether you want to pass or run.
The NES version doesn't look as good but has 4 offensive and 4 defensive plays you can choose from.

On NintendoLife, VCA Tecmo Bowl received a 6/10, while the NES Tecmo Bowl received a 7/10.

Getting a Genesis game. I'm thinking about Earthworm Jim. What other games are good?

Do you only want a genesis game?

@NotEnoughGolds

I think i'm going to get the VCA version because of its simplistic gameplay.
