I was at a GameStop yesterday just browsing and didn't even see a WiiU section. There weren't even WiiU games mixed with Wii games. So either they completely sold out of all of them, or they're all in the back where no one can see any WiiU related products at my local GameStop.
@kyuubikid213 - ... more like Fire Emblem you say? Did you watch the video? Fire Emblem is a grid-based strategy rpg, hmmm, so is this game.
I also don't see why people don't think it will leave Japan, it's a pokemon game. Very rarely do pokemon games not leave Japan (and in those cases it's stuff like Pikachu Teaches Typing). This wouldn't be as niche as people think.
Valve doesn't allow you to reveal sales numbers from Steam either, yet an awful lot of developers seem to like Steam for some reason. Nintendo's downloadable shops have way more problems than something like that.
If an updated Mario Paint were to come out and it was able to export .bmp/.jpg and possibly .wav for sounds (onto SD card) ... it would be the most awesome thing ever.
If it turns out good that Strategy game will be first on my list of must-haves I love Advance Wars and Fire Emblem! And Rose Princess looks good too, can't wait!
Now that the last episode of Strong Bad has been released ... I seriously need to do some catch up (episodes 3-5) ... damn you life not allowing for the time to play all the good games that are out!
Pretty good list. Only a few titles I have actually played, once I get more points and try to catch up on the recent WiiWare/VC games I'll check some of these out.
Damn it, that just adds one more game to my list of games to buy on WiiWare when I get points ... and space. I kind of wish they sold 2200 Point Cards so I would have enough Wii Points ... and definitely wish there was more storage space (even doubling it would be pretty damn good).
@Marvel_Maniac How does it require switching machines or any of the like? MMAC is just putting a disc into the Wii. I like Twilight Crow just have my Memory Card and Wavebird plugged in to the Wii at all times and it requires no extra effort to just use the collection. Plus you get 3 more games in the collection that will NEVER come to the VC.
Noooo (well not really). I only have 400 points But now I need to get Strong Bad, Megaman 9, and Bomberman Blast (assuming it comes to NA this month as well). Wiiware is a lot better than I had originally assumed it would be.
@vherub - Dr. Mario has been updated (as well as a variety of VC games being updated to fix minor bugs), but I don't know of any others. It is possible though which is good.
Telltale has made sure to not say any kind of specific release date for this game so far. And since it was slated for July I can believe this ... happily.
... but sadly I probably still won't be playing it for a while since my next two weeks are busy as hell
I will still wait to see some reviews, but as long as it scores a 6 and has the standard tetris mode intact (which I have no doubt it would) ... well I am a sucker for puzzle games
This is interesting, but couldn't it have been a new Photo Channel update instead? It would have been a major overhaul, but adding these features in there would have made perfect sense to me.
I am really anticipating this game when it eventually comes out. Thank you for putting so much effort into this Luc (just wondering if you are still around ... how do you pronounce your name? Whenever I read it my brain thinks Luke like Skywalker Luke, lol)
damn, I was hoping it would be exclusive. But the Wii is still the best choice for the NES-style controls ... crosses fingers make it cost more for the XBOX and PS3, lol.
meh, I bought the collection for $13 and suggest every other US gamer to just do the same. It's far cheaper and once you get used to using B as jump and A as shoot, it is like second nature anyway.
hmmm, I have only heard a little bit about it. $15 is a bit much for me on a download. I can't consider that an impulse buy so I'll wait for some reviews.
I know there are people that like the old fighters, but when I heard of the VC I had dreams of playing classic Nintendo titles most of all (SMRPG, Earthbound, DK64, etc)
