All consoles and handhelds should be region free. I import games. I wish the 360 and Wii were region free like PS3/PSP. I hope they take notice of what we little people are saying.
You get what you pay for. I am into online gaming big time. I would happily pay Nintendo £30 a year for a better online service. Get rid of friend codes. Have more games with online play. Every game should have online leaderboards.
Nintendo do have some fantastic online games this gen. My favourite being Mario Kart Wii, MH3, Bomberman Blast, MOHH2. Alot of the WiiWare games have online components. The Wii beats the Gamecube hands down for online gaming.
I am sure Nintendo will get it right on there next console.
Hey BJQ1972, Your pretty spot on with what you said. The main screen did look crazy dark. I am still enjoying it. But wished it was 60Hz and no spanish text. I am glad that D4 released this rare shump in PAL land. It's only £7.00 if you buy your points online.
I read that bootleg NGCD copies of this game were being sold at crazy prices on eBay. So paying only £7.00 feels good. I don't feel ripped off.
As anyone tryed to contact D4 about this and the rest of the NG games being 50Hz ?.
If D4 are reading this thank you for putting Neo-Geo games on Virtual Console and releasing the on the European marketplace. But please if possible have both 50/60Hz. Thank you.
I didn't buy the first stunt cars game. Because of the bad review on this site. So i cannot help you. Have a nice day way harsh, no need to be rude like that -- TBD
Message to all PAL gamers: Buy arcade games because they all run in 60hz and work with component cable.
Nes games are mostly 50hz and don't work with component cable in most cases.
Nintendo, I will buy many more arcade games. Keep releasing them. TG16 and Arcade games are my favourite part of the virtual console marketplace. Your doing a good job, But don't stop now.
Hey geek-master, Don't you feel a little ripped off having to pay DOUBLE what the rest of the world has to pay?. Nintendo would still make lots of profit selling at 500 points. What's Nintendos real reason for charging DOUBLE. I feel sick.
If the the Americans don't care about this than theres noting more to be said. Enjoy the game )
No American is going to pay $10 for this. None of you are getting it. I was looking forward to lots new players online. Online play is dieing like all WiiWare games. You all should be angry. Nintendo are ripping you off. I payed 500 points. Sorry Gameloft i didn't know nintendo do this. Sorry for swearing. I know the majority here are young children. Sometimes i cannot control myself.
Nintendo if your reading this you have gone too far this time. I don't like what you have done to my hobby. I will never buy a Nintendo console again. Ripping off people.
GAMELOFT what are you F***ing doing?. WTF!, Why did we (E.U JNP) get it for 500 points and the Americans have to pay 1000 points. F**K you Gameloft. Just WOW. Home goal Gameloft.
I don't blame the Americans for not buying it but, You will really be missing out on a brilliant online Wiiware card game with online rankings and Wii Speak support.
Well done Nintendo UK, I saw the Wiiware TV ad last night on E4. It was really good. Keep putting more ads on TV for WW/VC. Great work. Nintendo must be reading Nintendolife.
@25 My DS was made in 2004. I need a new DS. This maybe it. If it's £99.99 i may get it. I have not bought any DS games for like 3 years. I don't know. Maybe i will wait till christmas. Maybe we will see a new Gameboy.
Hello 110percentful, I don't have to thank Nintendo for anythink. I am not asking for too much. You don't care about online gaming that's fine, But i do care. My money is as good as yours. Nintendo has let me down. As you said they don't care about what i want or what i think. I have some power. I can stop buying their goods. The future looks bad for Nintendo. I wonder if their next console will do as well as the Wii. Maybe i am just getting too old, Been gaming for ages. I can't play offline multiplayer. No one i know is a gamer. Anyway online is better.
Thank you for your post, I hope you enjoy all the great new Nintendo games coming out in 2010.
Online multiplay is one of the most important things to me. Nintendo have done a poor job of online. Lack of support for WiiSpeak and the Wii Zapper and the Wii wheel. I hope Nintendo releases some big games in 2010. I didn't buy this Mario game because it had no online play. Online players will always be better then computer A.I players.
That's why one year ago i bought a Xbox 360. Online play is amazing. I have friends across the world. Don't be a fanbotboy try another console.
If Nintendo read this i want 1080p HD online multiplayer/Leaderboards , DLC and a harddrive. Wii demos. I want to be able to play Japanese and American Wii/GC games on a PAL Wii. I want Nintendo to make far more games. Pay CAVE to make Shmups on the Wii. You have 12-24 months to please me or i am gone. Thank you.
I also want Gamertags like Xbox 360. I want wide screen. No more 4:3 like Nitrobike. I want 30 player online F-Zero. I want all VC games to work with component cables. 60hz only games. Stop Ripping off E.U and AUS NZ. Buy Sega.
I just got Puyo Puyo 2. It's a pretty good puzzle game. I like it. Looks good to. Beautiful 60hz I will buy more Imports at 500 points. Not 900. Sega and Nintendo lower your prices for Europe now. 900 points for a MD game you must be nuts.
I will be buying Puyo Puyo 2 (900 Wii points) saving me Wii 400 points. Most of the other games are on the superior Xbox 360 with online leaderboards and online multiplayer on most of the Sega classics and they are only 400 MS points. I got Sonic 2 for 200 MS points.
I don't think any great or even good WiiWare games are coming out this Christmas for Europe. Very poor. I will be playing mostly my old WiiWare games. On the bright side i will save lots of money. Good review Mr Aaron. I don't think 2010 will be any better. I feel very low and will just call it a day.
I got it. Been playing 1 hour 40 minutes. It's more than just a Rubik's cube game. I love it. I think it will get good reviews. I can hear them saying its too hard. So that might put off some non puzzle fans. Hello Collin on the leaderboards.
If your thinking about buying this do so. It will give your brain a workout.
outrun2sp your right 60hz is best. I also love TG16 games. You have some fast times. You will kill me at outrun. Your a big fighting fan, I bet you got a arcade stick. I hope to get a stick in 2010. I bet you had a Dreamcast?. I hope sega bring out Jet Set Radio and ChuChu Rocket! and the rest of there games.
I don't have a PS3 yet but look at the sales figures of PS2. I think PS3 will sell over 100 million machines in it's life time. Mostly because of Blu-Ray.
Also on the 360 XBLA games get released at the same time around the world. None of this Americans and Japanese get it first. We all get to play at the same time. Europeans are treated like equals.
outrun2sp get a Xbox 360 it's the best console out right now. You can play outrun online with me. The Wii is just not cutting it. We want real polished online arcade games. Not the S**t we have been getting for years. I tell Nintendo what i want and i don't get any of it. My 360 just keeps getting better. I will never be a Nintendo fan like i was in the past. I will be playing my 360 tonight.
After playing the NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits demo. I will be buying it very soon. I enjoyed it alot. I hope all new WiiWare games get demos. It will increase sales. I am going to need a bigger SD card now. Thank you Nintendo.

Sega did a amazing job on this game. One of my favourite Gamecube games.10 out of 10. Where's F-Zero Wii?. WipEout is incredible too.

Re: E3 2010: 3DS Could be Region-Locked

Re: Monster Hunter Tri, Sin and Punishment Nowhere to Be Seen in UK Charts
What is it then?
( Japanese Action role playing game )
Re: Monster Hunter Tri, Sin and Punishment Nowhere to Be Seen in UK Charts
One game is a JRPG and other is a on-rails shooter. I think more 360 and PS3 games sell in the U.K
The most popular games are multi-format games. FPS and sport games.
I got MH3. It's my first JRPG and i am enjoying it. I will be buying SP2 soon.

Re: Review: Ironclad (Virtual Console / Neo Geo)
From what little i have played i am enjoying it. looks good for a game made in 1996. I am sure it will grow on me.

Re: The Grinder Gets a Release Date; Goes Multi-Platform
I look forward to playing the Grinder demo on the Xbox 360 when it comes out.
Re: Review: Eco Shooter: Plant 530 (WiiWare)
Nintendo are pricing games too high. I would get this at 500 Wii points. 1000 Wii points is just way too much. I am not the only one thinking this.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th January 2010 (North America)
Ezekiel i don't know. Europe payed 500 points. It would be odd if this game was three different prices. 500, 800, 1000 points. Strange
Why did it take three months for you guys to get it. Three months! what were they doing?.
Why not have one price 500 points for everyone and release the game on the same day world wide. Then i would shut the up
On Xbox live we in most cases get Arcade/Indie games the same day and price. Which is very cool as you kidz may say. Thanks Mr Gates.

Re: Online Mario Multiplayer May Happen Down the Line
I maybe whiny, I maybe wrong. Most of you don't want online functions. I am in the minority. I will shut up now.

Re: Review: Puyo Puyo 2: Tsuu (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)
I am enjoying it. Well worth 500 points. I Would recommend it. 8.5/10
Re: Celebrate The Holidays With Cheaper Sega Virtual Console Titles
I just got Puyo Puyo 2. It's a pretty good puzzle game. I like it. Looks good to. Beautiful 60hz I will buy more Imports at 500 points. Not 900. Sega and Nintendo lower your prices for Europe now. 900 points for a MD game you must be nuts.
Re: Celebrate The Holidays With Cheaper Sega Virtual Console Titles
@84
Good point Madgear.
Lots of the games don't work with component cable.
All TG16 and VCA games fully work with component cable (I think).
All games should be 60hz.
Re: Celebrate The Holidays With Cheaper Sega Virtual Console Titles
@58
You have to the 6th of January son. Buy some more points or ask your friends to gift you them for Christmas.

Re: Review: Stunt Cars (WiiWare)
Hello Richard, Welcome to Nintendo Life
If there is a demo for this game in Europe next year i will give it a spin. I raced RC cars has a kid. So i can tell if your game is any good.
1)Why are you selling it at 800 Wii points?. ( How about you sell it at 500 Wii points in Europe )
2) Why no online multiplayer mode?.
3) You have time trials which is great but you have no online leaderboards.
4) Is Icon Games a English or Irish Developer?.
Thank you for your for time.
Yours sincerely Alfred Saxon.
