The product's Web site says, "Today THQ announced Worms Battle Islands for Wii. Worms Battle Islands is a turn-based strategy game that allows players to battle across 6 unique and custom designed levels as they take control of and customize their islands."
I played a ton of F-Zero 64 in college, to the point where I would always come in first. I set a new challenge of seeing how many fellow racers I could destroy before crossing the finish line. The best score was coming in first out of one.
Somehow, I have almost no memories of the GameCube sequel. I'll have to revisit it this evening. Thanks for the motivation!
I loved this game and was disappointed by how short it was and at how inaccessible the sequel was. The original is available for Windows at GOG.com, but I'll probably never get to play Heart of the Alien.
This is a tough game but utterly fantastic. I remember reading that the hacking element was completely different (and inferior?) in the Genesis version.

How does the music integrate into the gameplay, other than being "integral to the overall mood of the levels"?

Every time I see the word "Racer" in a Wii download, I think it's going to be Uniracers.

Six levels?

Oh, hey -- the game's creator published a free Game Boy ROM version of Another World. Slick!

I remember spending hours grinding on the convoy levels so I could afford the best equipment. It was worth it,

I loved Mario Clash, but I find it hard to believe that the Virtual Boy would've taken off if given a chance or more time.

Was there a content-based reason why this game was deemed unacceptable for Western audiences?

The link at the top of the article is broken. bit_trip_runner should be bittrip_runner

Kenji commented on Review: Sunset Riders (Super Nintendo):
A great game, but I'm pretty sure the SNES port lacked levels found in the arcade original, which was a major bummer.

My brother and I spent a summer playing this game's battle mode. I thin the final count was 300 to 200.

One of the best books about video game history. Good enough for me to own two copies... (not sure how that happened.)

I'm surprised FFIV:TAY has been on top so long. Are that many WiiWare owners old-school RPG fans?

Meh. I prefer Mega64's take — even if it is less macho:
