Nintendo Download: 20th September 2012 (North America)

What a weird title for Denpa Ningen RPG. I'm not even sure what to think about it...

People will still call this a bad week just because there are no 3DS VC games released.

Grabbing the Denpamen demo.

Obviously i will pick today La Mulana.

I´m interested too in the review of Retro Pocket, i liked the video.

And i will play the demo, i didn´t know anything about that game.

I was expecting Harvest Moon GBC and Legend of the River King, this week, due to PS3 getting PS2 versions of each on Tuesday. Oh well, still a very good week.

Denpamen demo for sure, La Mulana looks pretty solid as well.

Urrrrrgh, La Mulana should be for 3DS eShop.....

I'm buying Rising Board 3D and Sakura Samurai this week, and Denpa Men next week!

Does the English version of Denpa Ningen explain what the meaning of "denpa" is, and that it's a Japanese word? Or is it just displayed as a silly video game term?

I mean, of course people here look at that and know what it means right away, but denpa...its not exactly a Japanese 101 word, and of course people who don't study the language aren't going to know what it means. It'd be nice if at least in the games instructions they explain the word. Nice little learning moment.

Sakura Samurai is fun and worth the couple of bucks that it costs but let me know if you ever beat the final boss, he's really tough.

Finally! A worthwhile Wiiware game. Of course, I'll have to dust off my Wii and see if I have any points left for La-Mulana.

After seeing a weird trailer for Denpa Men, I'm willing to give the demo a shot.

Jeez! I had no idea La-Mulana was coming this fast over to the US on the same week the UK got it. That seems like the only thing worth downloading this week. Although with me, I'll wait until after I see the reviews for it.

@Bass_X0

Just be glad we got something good last week like Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon from the GAME BOY.

@ouroborous

I thought the same thing about La-Mulana being for the 3DS and I nearly got flamed for it at the beginning of the week.

La-Mulana looks cool, but I don't really buy downloadable stuff for the Wii anymore. I wish it had come to 3DS eShop, which judging by this week's haul could have used a good game.

Yeah, the first WiiWare title in AGES that makes me wish I hadn't handed my Wii over to my mother. But I'll definitely be giving that demo a shot and likely purchasing it next week.

Retro Pocket looks interesting, but I'll definitely be downloading the demo today.

I don't know, but the more I think on La-Mulana being put out on WiiWare , the more I think that THAT game may be the FINAL game on WiiWare before the whole WiiWare service dies.

Getting rising board and maybe retro pocket if the review is good and will get the demo.

Today is La-Mulana day!

@3DSLUIGI Nope, Retro City Rampage is still coming. I just spoke to the developer recently and he confirmed this.

Is there a demo up for LA MULANA?

Today is also The Denpa Men day! <3

If I could, I would vote for getting the demo first (in the NL poll).

Nice week for me! Interested in La Mulana, Rising Board 3D, and the 3DS demo.

@sketchturner

You're a dope you know that. No one said anything about Retro City Rampage you troll.

Retro Pocket seems interesting to me.

@divinealpha I agree the demo should have been a poll option since I want that. Why can't I see it on the eshop yet?

@XCWarrior It will be in an hour from now.

Retro pocket... I believe you mean LCD handhelds.

I mostly understand that demo versions don't really count for the poll, but The Denpa Men should be an exception because I know people who were really wanting this forever!

Everyone should get every demo anyway, even if they have been waiting for it or not. Its something free to play at least.

@Bass_X0 I totally agree with you. It's a demo, why not try it out? I have a buddy with only 1 3DS retail game and a few downloads, yet he hasn't downloaded any demos yet. Mind boggling.

@3DSLUIGI You said you thought La-Mulana would be the last game to hit WiiWare. I was just letting you know that at least one more was coming. Not trying to troll at all.

@ Tasuki
Nice! Looks like Gearbox stepped it up with BL2, unfortunately all of my spare cash is going towards the Wii U launch.

@sketchturner

Sorry about that, but I thought I read somewhere not too long ago, I can't remember where exactly. But anyways, point overall, I thought I saw somewhere that Retro City Rampage was supposed to have been cancelled.

Is La-Mulana anything like Spelunky (XBLA)? Or do they just share a similar setting with very different gameplay? I know L-M is supposed to be great, but I played the free online version and was turned off pretty quickly. Hopefully the WiiWare version is more accessible...

Isn't the Japanese term "denpa" basically equivalent to "misanthrope"? Totally my type of game! I hate people, and they certainly give me weird looks when I tell them I can see radio men flying around my head

I really want to get Marvel Pinball, but not until it is fixed. I heard the patch is out in Europe, I thought it might come today to NOA.
When it comes I'll get it. Glad Zen is supporting their product.
Until then, La-Mulana perhaps?

Nothing for me until I see about La-Mulana.

Can't find the denpa men demo.

I bet a lot of people will buy La-Mulana without understanding what kind of game it is, and end up disappointed. Or maybe I'm just underestimating how many people actually like old-school "hard as balls" games.

^ This is exactly what I was thinking. Not always good to follow the hype lol.

What an odd name for Denpa men, they should have left the subtitle out, the game itself doesn't interest me though.

I WANT ZELDA II AND WARIO LAND 2 GOSH DARN IT!

But...yes, La Mulana should be lovely.

Sooo the odd title interests you but not the game itself.

Well maybe that's why they gave it! To attract some interest.

I can't find the Denpa Men demo either. Anybody know what's going on?

I think my Wii's WiFi is dead.

@photofool83 Neither could I. Just search "Denpa" on the eShop. It pops up. Downloaded it just now.

Don't worry guys, I sent an email to Nintendo about the disclusion of the Denpa Men demo. I'm sure they'll put it up.
Never mind, they just put it up.

@birthgirth Thanks. Downloading it now.

Denpa Men demo for me. I'd get La Mulana as well, but no longer really use my Wii, and nothing else this week interests me.

@photofool83 Hmmm, it appears theres still some kind of error going on. My download stops at 98% and errors.

EDIT: Just keep trying

Great... and I currently have no internet at home. sigh

hum... lazy ninty in eshop is back...

very interesting la mulana, but... none for eshop...

To an earlier commenter: La Mulana is not very much like Spelunky. La Mulana is not randomly generated and I think it is open world, not level based.

Both however are 2d combat based platformers with an archaeological theme and a whip as primary weapon.

Spelunky is awesome. I haven't played La Mulana yet but know enough to know what I've told you.

Searched Denpa Men to find the demo, and after playing it, what an awesome game we're set to be getting next week. I really like what I've played so far, and can see myself investing a lot of time into the full version coming next week.

Nothing again this week. It really isn't that hard with the back catalog of NES,Game Boy, and Game Gear games to release just 1 Virtual Console game a week.

Am I the only one who can't get the demo, even by searching for it? I decided to update just to try this stupid thing, and nothing :/

They did say "We're Denpa Men and we live around radio waves" in the demo, so the translation is there. Maybe it's just weird calling them Radiowave Men.
@1takauchiha I live in the West Coast and I got it. There's a banner that just says "Demos" with the Denpa Men graphic and you can't miss it. (The 5th icon to the right of "News") Try again at a later time if you must.

Ah, hell yeah for La-Mulana!

Finally! I'm getting another points card tomorrow just for it.

Ugh. Bad week this week, but not as bad as the other weeks thanks to La-mulana and the demo. But seriously, if the two game gear sonics are in the COMING SOON section, and have eshop ratings (meaning the files are uploaded to the eshop and playable), then why is it taking so long for it to come? I just want them as they are fun games to pass time, PLUS we are closer to the epic sword of Hajya game!

Happy that there is a demo this week, as I'm out of money. But still, where are those games that were promised 2 (almost 3) months ago?

Awesome, totally wasn't expecting a demo on a game that I'm n the fence about and will definitely help me make a decision. giant hint Nintendo!
Hurray for La-Mulana too. Good week!

Denpa Men! Everyone was waiting years...

I seems like nothing this week gets the most votes

EnjoyUp does what Ninten... err Nicalis don´t.

Wooo. Buying La Mulana next week.
