My Pokémon Ranch Due This Friday For Europe

Yup, I saw an article on Serebii that said pretty much the same thing. This will be good for those that need extra storage space or want the elusive Mew.

They like to tell us about Pokemon coming early for some weird reason...

Anyway the question is now, what else do we get on Friday?

Well, if people want it...

Isn't one game good enough Starwolf?

Already guessed this on Monday before the leaks began pooping up at the US Magnetica Twist News. Going to LOL hard if we only get this WiiWare title, hahaha

... IT'S NOT FUNNY!

As much as I've been slamming you guys in Europe because of the gross favortism you've been recieving in your VC releases lately, I still hope you'll get more than just this come Friday.

I hope we get more than that 4/10 game...

@ Bensei- I'm pretty sure its the same exact game we got...
But on a happy note, the game got a score of 4, and it's being released on the 4th.
Ironic much?

Well, at least we are going to have that game this Friday. Doesn't look so bad if you are a Pokemon fan.

@PALgamer +1

Isn't one game good enough Starwolf?
To be honest i'm on Holiday so I'm not bothered but I can understand how some people are fed up of waiting for Pirates: Key of Dreams and Pop both launch window titles...

Also if it is going to be one game it shouldn't be the equivilent of a microwave dinner done wrong* (seriously, Q: how do you mess up a concept as simple of Pokemon Box?. A: Get Ambrella to develop it)
*-Its still edable but it tastes wrong...very wrong...and the worst part is cleani...

Either way its going to sell like a landslide especilly now that NOE announced it in advance. This moment I'm sure there are people wondering why it isn't up yet

It can't just be Pokemon, EU only gets WiiWare every other week, so one would assume a minimum of two titles. But then, expecting sense from a board room isn't very sensible.

Interesting to note, their "simultaneous (or as near as makes sense to us)" thing seems to trump their "one title per publisher per month" thing.

haha, Europeans.

Actually some people down there might be excited about this. : l

Europe are slipping badly WiiWareWise. Sure, we're getting Pokemon Ranch, which is a big (but not neccesarily better) title and since the US have got all games currently available in both western regions, they will get even further ahead.

I reckon NOE should bring out alongside Ranch, realistically either DYC, Pop, Family Table Tennis or (These are really titles i want) Protothea and Gyrostarr. I Love SHMUPS

Who cares!

Sucks to be you...just like it sucked to be US.

man, Europe only gets the bad games

But on a happy note, the game got a score of 4, and it's being released on the 4th. Ironic much?

Just because the site gave it a 4 doesnt mean EVERYONE thinks its a 4....

Not a surprise at all that Europe is getting MPR this Friday since we got Magnetica Twist on Monday.

Oh, Wariofan, Wariofan, always trying to find the lighter side of things...

Anyone ever thought about a boycot? But if we boycot then Nintendo will just think of it as a failure and do away with the service lol. It really grinds my gears that they have 100s if not 1000s of titles to release out of all the systems they can use and they release one or two games a week in american and 5 or 6 a week over there. Now don't get me wrong, sure they aren't going to have the rights to all the games (I dont think), but out of all the games from the NES, SNES, Mega Drive, Genesis, and Nintendo 64 you know they could release at least 3 a week everywhere. I mean how long do they think the Wii will last, surely they are already planning for the next console. I love you Nintendo, but you are being a bad bad girl right now

Congratulations Europe as you get Pokemon Ranch this Friday =) /sacrasm. I hope you guys get another title though on Friday as well.

For some unbeknown reason, I am not disappointed by this announcement - rather I'm.LAUGHING MY ASS OFF at the constant ineptitude of NoE to provide any reasonable input into the WiiWare service. Like I've said before, the Wii is THE console for the eternally hopeful and I hope you guys get to see at least some good games on the service outside of the famous four (Star Solider R, FFCC:MLaaK, LostWinds and Toki Tori) Me? I've decided to forgo the whole service and write to Nintendo asking for weekly VC releases again.

NoE really ought to rename the service to WeepWare or WeakWare or even Why?Ware. Then again, WiiWare seems more appropriate than ever considering that outside of launch day the service has really taken the piss in Europe.

Jerichoholic Josh said "how long do they think the Wii will last, surely they are already planning for the next console"

Look at Nintendo's history and you'll see that they milk each console release for all it's worth. They only released the SNES when they did because of competition from Sega and NEC... Even the Cube lasted for around 5 years and that was probably their least successful system to date. The Wii is a monster sales-wise and will be around for a LONG time yet! So while they have 1000s of titles available to release on VC and eventually WiiWare, they will be planning to put new releases out every week for the next 2-3 years minimum I'd say.

As for this WiiWare release I will quote Catherine Tate and say "Am I bovvered?" Hopefully there may be something else released alongside it but I have my doubts. Language translation is really impacting European WiiWare...

lack of good games is killing me

Finally, but heck, it's my round for rants: I do love surprises, why they announced this one that's one of the few titles I was waiting for?
Not fair, I could have come home tonight (after dinner at a friend's) and discover it by myself and proceed to dance and hug my mudkip (....stuffed doll; ok, ok...).

Anyway I have a feeling some surprise is due for tonight.....

The only reason to get this game is if you want to get Mew for Diamond/Pearl.. After depositing 999 pokemon and an egg the next day hayley is supposed to give you Mew.

have fun.

Meh, hope they don't release this alone because it's Pokémon.
I'll finally get paid again next week so I was hoping to be able to get Pop or Defend Your Castle with Puzzle League.

Maybe we'll get Pirates since it was due for end june and was delayed again

Yay, cheap week this week

I just hope we get the FFCCMLAAK content. But if not, doesn't really matter, I'll just play someat else

Ben, if we don't get Pirates I'd be amazed, because it's out on the DS soon, so you'd think that they'd want to put the Wii Ware prequel out a few weeks before the DS one.

Hey ballkirby, how do you make those straight faces?
