darkmagi_82 commented on Magnetis WiiWare Trailer:
WOOOO First!
Edit: Yes! I got my first first. Now, onto the game. I think it could turn out to be quite an excellent puzzler, with the four player split screen and interesting gameplay, but I could already see the LEVEL UP! thing getting old. Maybe buy for me, have to wait for one of the always-quality reviews that Nintendolife will provide.

Maybe if we all think about it, our collective wills will make it a reality.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I might get this game just for the dialogue.

@Egg miester
It is an April Fools joke, unfortunately.
Wow, I want this game SO much now. * crosses fingers for Monday *

Please tell me this is some kind of elaborate April Fools' joke.

@Corbie
I'm totally with you on the PSP thing. I have a DS and a PSP, but I use my PSP waaaaaay more. Sony's handheld outmatches the DS in almost every way, but is very underrated unfortunately. Long live the PSP!

darkmagi_82 commented on ColorZ - New WiiWare Puzzler:
This one looks like it could either be awesome or tank hard. Considering the Z at the end, though, the latter seems a little more plausible.
The Incredible MaZe: 2/10
BoingZ: 3/10

darkmagi_82 commented on Semnat Studios Interview - Eduardo the Samurai...:
I'd like to see this game do well, it actually looks decent. Come on, the main character is a martial arts oriented electrical appliance, how could it possibly do poorly? Four player co-op sounds sweet.
#9
darkmagi_82 commented on Swords & Soldiers:
I'm guessing that the third faction is oriental in origin (hopefully ninja related).
If you look at the Swords and Soldiers logo, you can see an arrow (Aztecs), an axe (Vikings), and a shuriken (???) protruding from the wooden shield.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!! There... happy now?
Looking forward to Swords and Soldiers in the new year.

@Marioman64
I agree with you in full...except your favorite game. My favorite is definitely the circle game, but the reason is that it's the only one I am good at.

darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Maboshi's Arcade and Pool ...:
Downloaded Maboshi, and it is quite good. I was reluctant to believe the reviews at first, as some of the people that had played it said that it wasn't worth it. Eventually I gave in and discovered a very simple, but exceedingly complex game that is just what I was looking for this holiday season. It has very addictive gameplay, and if you play it with a few buddies who don't mind its simplicity, that addictiveness is multiplied tenfold. Maboshi is a glittering diamond disguised as a stone.

darkmagi_82 commented on RealArcade Interview - Tiki Towers:
@shadows262
Well, I'd start out by purchasing the first level of Space Invaders: Get Even to see if you like it and adding on more if you think its worth it. Art Style: ORBIENT is also quite an excellent game if you don't already have it, don't know about the other Art Styles though. Defend Your Castle is great and absolutely worth 500 points. As for VC, Paper Mario and Star Fox 64 are very nostalgic downloads. You've probably purchased Super Mario 64, but that is also excellently nostalgic if you haven't... Whew, there's my two cents.
Still unsure whether Tiki Towers will be shovelware or not, though the interview provided an image of what would appear to be a good game.

Don't worry, on S&S's site it says that they are aiming for 1000 points or less.

darkmagi_82 commented on Behold The All New Swords & Soldiers Trailer:
If I get some Wii points for Christmas, I'm saving them for this.

darkmagi_82 commented on Evasive Space - New Screens & Trailer:
This looks like a winner for me. I just hope the controls are decent.

darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Space Invaders Get Even & ...:
@longtimegamer
Just downloaded SIGE, along with some level packs, and its awesome. It's got great graphics, fast-paced gameplay, and a lot of replayability if you're willing to spend the extra $ for some level packs. In this case, one level is not enough. As a bonus, the humans utter some pretty humorous lines as you blow up their buildings, abduct their cows, etc. I'll quote one of my favorites: I'll keep fighting 'til I run out of quarters. Oh, Almost forgot... its also quite a challenging game; if you don't have your wits about you during some of the boss fights (which are pretty epic), your little UFO is toast.
Hope this gave you at least a little taste of what you're getting into when you DL this game.

@Stardust
, but thanks anyways. World of Goo is an incredible game, other gamers should take your advice.
I've had WoG since it came out in the US
#21
darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Space Invaders Get Even & ...:
Space Invaders, Woot! What I want to know is if it's just the starter pack or the DLC packs as well. I have 1,500 Wii Points, so I can get 2
#22
darkmagi_82 commented on Tiki Towers Coming to WiiWare in December:
This looks like a cheap knockoff of World of Goo. . . shame on Realnetworks.
I don't think anything could surpass World of Goo except a sequel

darkmagi_82 commented on World of Goo Coming to WiiWare in Europe!:
@Mr. Cheez
I agree, they should definitely give us more content . . . World of Goo ended too soon.

Dang it, Space Invaders was replaced by a cooking sim
#25
darkmagi_82 commented on Review: Space Invaders Get Even (WiiWare):
There have been a lot of similar scores L-eight-ly, all accompanied by gr-eight reviews that really str-eight-en your view of the games...
Anyways, if Space invaders comes out in the US, it will definitely be in my collection.

All I have to say is: excellent game, absolutely worth it.
#32
darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Bomberman Blast And Art St...:
I just got Art Style: ORBIENT, and didn't regret it. Its unique gameplay, great music, score system and relaxing atmosphere make it absolutely worth six dollars. Besides, its just plain fun
. I'd give it a 9/10, but that's just me. You'll have to look at the WWW review to get a more detailed opinion.
#33
darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Bomberman Blast And Art St...:
@Objection_Blaster - I think it takes up 128 blocks, but I'm not entirely sure...
#34
darkmagi_82 commented on USA WiiWare Update: Bomberman Blast And Art St...:
Art Style fell out of the sky... and it actually sounds decent. For only 600 Wii points, I may have to get it. It will depend on the review, though.

darkmagi_82 commented on First Impressions: MadStone:
This looks like a 7-8 out of ten to me.

Yay achievements, this will make me want to play the game even longer.
My favorite is: 19 Gamer's Day: Clear the game 5 times in 1 day.

Once you get the hang of it, its not too hard. It took me a while, but I finally got all 27 stars in all three categories. Then I unlocked...something.

Woah, didn't see that coming. Europe gets Bomberman and Plattchen, while we get stuck with another puzzler. XD

@Wiiboy
Thanks for the info, sounds like an interesting puzzle title. I'll have to see the review before I purchase it, though. 1500 Wii points isn't something to be spent lightly.

It's good to hear from this game again, I've been looking forward to it despite its horrible price.

darkmagi_82 commented on Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (10th Sept):
I'm sad that Groovin' Blocks didn't make it.
I downloaded it this morning (316 blocks, wow) and found it incredibly enjoyable. It was a bit hard to get used to, but once I got the hang of it, it turned out to be the best eight dollars I've spent. I would have gladly payed the usual ten dollars to obtain this gem of a puzzler.
