Soo.. that was that with WiiWare demos. Today the last WiiWare demo (Bit.Trip Beat) disappeared from the Wii shop channel. CommanderVideo spent a lonesome week by himself in the WiiWare demo genre before leaving it echoing empty. If I remember correctly Bit.Trip Beat also was the first game demoed. Is this the end of the WiiWare demo saga?
Probably, yes, since all old demo's are gone. Have all demo's (as far as I know they excist) n my SD card, even the ones from November 2009 It would be pretty unfurtunate if they really stopped with it. :/
There are still demos in NA that EU has not: lilt line, BIT.TRIP CORE, BIT.TRIP RUNNER. And demos in EU that NA don't have: HoopWorld: BasketBrawl, ColorZ
Apart from that there are a few games that really should have a demo: Bonsai Barber, LostWinds, Swords & Soldiers.
I know of newer games like Liight where the developers themselves said there would be demos because they submitted them already, so I wouldn't call the service dead just yet.
Nintendo really didn't support wiiware demo's at all. They tried it, but didn't really take full advantage of it like they could of, and it would have made a difference in wiiware sales if they did. Oh well, hopefully they will see it's greater potential one day and use it like they should of in the first place.
There sure is several more games that´s worthy of a demo. Personally, without checking any "games out now" lists I´d like to see as demos: Plättchen, You me & Cubes, Lostwinds. Yeah, that old Plättchen game
We already got the NyxQuest demo some time ago.... or is this demo different from the earlier one? I'd rather see new demos, instead of seeing them re-releasing older ones.
