The Aliens vs Predator game would be fantastic, I think it should have been avaliable online long ago.
I suggested Red Earth/ Warzard in the survey. I´ve never played it but it seems very interesting. Looking forward to the translated D&D!

This is more like it! I´m actually thinking about buying a US WiiU to play the latest batch of Neo Geo VC on.

@gurtifus
Metacritic is just an average of scores. This game has recieved praise from some reviewers and since it´s definitly my kind of game I´ll buy it. I´ve been looking forward to it ever since I heared it was Europe bound!

Boycoting the game is just silly. The only result is UBI making the conclusion that WiiU owners don´t buy games like this. However, pity about the delay.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Review: BurgerTime (Wii Virtual Console / NES):
I can´t recommend this game, it´s just so frustrating. I can hardly finish the first level since the enemies are so hard to avoid. Also quite monotonous like many older arcadegames.

Side scrolling action game??? The other Super Robot Wars/ Taisen titles heve been strategy games. This one seems to be just as focused on over the top battle animations as the other one, pity license deals with anime companies will prevent it from reaching west.

Yay! I´ve heared very good things about the first Shock Troopers! Sooner or later I´ll definitly be getting this game. I´ve been waiting for this one since they started releasing Neo Geo games on VC.

This looks amazing, having it avaliable in US & Europe is awesome news!

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Unreal Engine 4 Ports Possible on Wii U:
It is good news since it means UE4 titles can be ported to WiiU. If WiiU couldn´t use it very few companies would be willing to move their EU4 game to a different engine.

@Wesker
He bought the game, and that´s what counts. The first months of sales are generally used to measure if the game´s sold good or not.
Besides, secondhand market has existed as long as trade itself, so it doesn´t damage the industry one bit. The gaming industry just needs to accept that once we´ve payed for their product, we own that copy and are free to give it away, sell it or throw it in the trash.

Ah. I just read the earlier post now. I hate when the music is slower, so I´ll buy the XBLA version instead. Thanks for noticing it!

Does anyone know if this game runs in actual 60hz in europe? Some Mega Drive games are only 50hz, but I´ve heared imports are 60.

Having 2 screens CAN be a problem. I find it really tough to play Contra 4 on DS, you can only have full focus on one screen at once. If you use two screens, it should be clear which one is secondary at the moment.
#21
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Reggie: Wii U Launch Window is Four Months Long:
Still, I wouldn´t say these games are enough to keep the excitement going for 4 months. I´m sure New Super Mario Bros U will sell like crazy, but apart from that... not really system sellers here.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Nintendo Download: 7th June 2012 (North America):
THE LAST BLADE!!! We haven´t seen many VC titles latley, buy boy do they have quality!
@NTELLIGENTMAN As far as I know there is actually a PS2 collection with Last Blade 1&2.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on E3 2012: Meet The Wii U GamePad:
@Skeletor
Chances of two gamepads at onces seems VERY low. Each extra screen would demand extra processor power.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Rumour: Blockbuster UK Lists 25 Wii U Games:
■Rabbids Party Land
■Raving Rabbids
■Rayman Legends
■Shield Pose
■Splinter Cell 6
■Sports Connection
■Tekken
■Your Shape 2013
■Zombie
For some reason this list reminds me of old pirate carts for the NES with "9999 games in 1" where a few titles are given non sense names. "Zombie" is bound to be a development title, but it´s just so generic

I can easily see this in my 3DS collection. The console needs some great plattforming games! Thumbs up.

Hm, the XBLA version will be upscaled... and Wii is 50hz. Decisions, decisions. Getting the game for sure, I really liked playing it in japaneese.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Europe's Virtual Console Loses 6 Games This Month:
Well, of course most games will stay on the service as long as it lasts. But the thing is, it´ll most probably not be around forever. If I may speculate, I think Nintendo will support the service 3-5 years after the last Wii is manufatured. The games I´ve downloaded will be on my harddrive and SD card for as long as they last.
I still think regular cartriges and CD:s have a more reliable lifespan. If my Wii breaks ten years from now, the games will be gone. If my N64 breaks, I can still play my games on a new machine.
#31
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Europe's Virtual Console Loses 6 Games This Month:
Really?
Better stack up with some TG 16 games then. Thought about getting R-Type III as well, but I´ll buy a real cart instead.
This is really bad advertisement for digital downloads. We´ll see how many years Nintendo will support downloads for Wii.
#32
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on In Fire Emblem 3DS, Death Isn't Always Permanent:
I´ve started to love Fire Emblem, I´ll probably go classic mode but it´s nice to have choice. I like how death matters in these games. It makes the struggle feel more important whan you know the fate of the characters lay in your hands.
Nice to see they´ve returned to a more traditional look for the game, the Shirow artwork for Shadow Dragon was so grey and dull...

Eeh? It´s possible since 3DS got Super Street Fighter IV, but I really didn´t expect it. Buying the 360 version this month though.

Nintendo has my permission to delay it till 2013 as long as the game is good.
#36
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on UK 3DS High Street Price Drop Round-Up:
Tempting, but I´ll wait until Nintendo releases exclusive games worth buying. So, a unit from Amazon in November seems pretty likely for me.

@Hortencio:
Oh yes.
Oh yes it is. FFII is a cute game and all, but FFIII is mindblowing.
#39
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Review: Final Fantasy III (Virtual Console / S...:
This review misses out on FFIII´s amazing story and endearing characters. I think it deserves mention, since it´s one of the best tales ever told in a videogame.
For me the soundtrack is the best RPG score ever. That includes Chrono Trigger (altought that one is very good as well). Tracks like Tina, Devils Laboratory, the opera piece and Dancing Mad are just outstanding.
On a sidenote: The battle system is plays a lot faster in this title than the Final Fantasy PS1 titles (and FFX), and the interactive abilities where you use slotmachines or Street Fighter:esque commands for your attacks are great fun.
A 10/10 from me if there ever was one. Glad it got a 9 at least, though
#40
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Japanese Virtual Console list - March 2011:
Gasp, this is just awesome games! I already own FFIV, but it may be the best game ever. I will buy Last Resort if it comes here. Still waiting for Waku Waku 7, though. Fire Fighters (as it´s called in the west) is a cult classic, nice to see it on VC. And online Puyo puyo... cool stuff.

Neither of the Bomberman plattformers are supposed to be any good. I´ll avoid this second-rate 3D plattformer.
#42
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Monster World IV Comes Westward, Finally:
@JumpMad: The earlier parts were called Wonder Boy (...) in the west. They play more like a Kid Icarus than Alex Kid, some upgrading of equipment a ´la Zelda.
#43
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Monster World IV Comes Westward, Finally:
Wow. I´ve got this in the Monsterworld collection, I really hope we´ll get a translated version. It´s a superb game.

That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Review: S.C.A.T.: Special Cybernetic Attack Te...:
Hm... isn´t that "nuke" screenshot from the japaneese version named "Final Mission"? S.C.A.T. / Action in New York has the "running soldiers" intro instead. By the way, awesome that we get the best version in europe too! Arnold / Sigourny is such an epic teamup!
#45
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Nintendo Download: 4th February 2011 (Europe):
SCAT rocks, I sure hope they kept the legally questionable names "Arnold" and "Sigourny" for the main characters! So much more awesome than the new names in Action in New York.
#46
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Nintendo Download: 21st January 2011 (Europe):
Sorry, Black Tiger hasn´t aged well. The controls are very frustrating when it comes to platforming, it´s definitly not a more accessible Ghosts´n Goblins. 1942 plays decent, but seriously it´s a very unexciting design. Nothing great on VC this week.
#47
That_Guy_from_Faxana commented on Review: Goemon's Great Adventure (Nintendo 64):
10 / 10. This is one of my favourite games ever. Way better than the SNES games, the levels, enemies, soundefects, music... it´s ace! Superb 2 player mode too.
#48

You can present a character in a competent or incompetent way. Feelings are good. Ellen Ripley in Aliens should be the rolemodel for Samus, Sigourny Weaver displayed a very believable mother/ child relationship while still being badass. Just like many other japaneese productions Other M:s characterization is too pathetic.
