Europe/Australia can keep their games. I'm not interested in them. I must say though, I didn't realize that the US had that many exclusives!

UPDATED: Added the games that are missing in Australia.

Due to the missing games, we haven't hit 100 yet. We still have 4 to go.

Wow, I feel kinda bad for Australia :(

I like all kinds of birds. Every thing from bird people like Janaff to those delicious hot wings. Yum!
I've been playing games since 1990. Golden Sun is great, but Fire Emblem is also good.

We don't, unless it went up today. Did you actually see it on your Wii, set to Australia?

Well we didn't have it a few hours ago, and to my knowledge we have not had it at all. EU has it, but not us. I will double check, but I am pretty sure we do not have it.

I can't believe we in Australia don't have Contra Rebirth. Is this supposed to be coming any time soon? That's really disappointing. Does that mean it is unlikely we will see Castlevania Rebirth also? Man that bites.

I haven't seen Lostwinds 2 either.

Awww... that's kinda ruined my evening...

Currently playing: Viewtiful Joe, Street Fighter II, and eagerly awaiting NSMB:WII

We EUians got (or are getting, I didn't bother to look at the release date when NGamer reviewed it) Groovin' Blocks, albeit as a beefier commercially released title. Too bad it's a bit crap.

If I'm online within the next couple of weeks tell me to get lost and do some coursework.

I tried Gyrostarr on a friend's Wii, I love it, sucks it isn't available legally here in Europe...

Overturn is amazing. You're really missing out with that one.

None of the EU exclusives interest me.

I've yet to see any release info on the Groovin' Blocks disc for Europe (and I looked); it's already out in the States though!

The US exclusives I've downloaded to my new Brazilian Wii (country setting to minimise credit-card pain in the shop):

Gyrostarr
Groovin' Blocks
Evasive Space
Eduardo the Samurai Toaster

I actually gave my thoughts on these in a recent blog post.

Updated. I haven't checked the Australian WiiWare yet, so there may be some releases from yesterday (20th) that did not make it to Australia.
