I bet it's even more rubbish than the real Thundercats.

Up there with Skyrim in the 'best RPG of this generation' stakes.

I think I speak for all of us who play games AND occasionally go outdoors and/or talk to girls when I say 'this falls under the umbrella of 's**t no-one cares about"

Link's Awakening is still an astonishing technical achievement, when you consider the specs they were working under.

The DEFINITIVE version of Tetris. End. Of.

A close-run thing between Xenoblade and Zelda for me. Voted Xnoblade on the grounds that it's destroyed my life between September and well....last week.

Wow, this looks like it has some varied gameplay with lots of weapons that play completely differently to each other.

I know judging on graphics alone is a mistake but my word that's an AWFUL looking screenshot. Is it a mock-up?

1500 points? This is going have to get World Of Goo level reviews or have longevity of the FFCCMLAK level to persuade me I fear.

Bought, completed and traded SMG, bought, got bored rigid with all the brown and traded TP.

Now, Paper Mario...

Gives me time to buy and complete Inazuma Eleven then!

At that price, I'm a afraid not(geddit).

Wow. Lots less brown than TP.

I liked his 'drawing pass patterns for Madden' comment, that would be ideal for FIFA/PES - imagine the precision individual player control you get with sticks/buttons, plus the ability to precisely pick your passes...

Ooooh, just in time for my week off work!

Bet it's rubbish.

At the risk of trivialising the deep hurt some of you are feeling - IT'S JUST A COMPUTER GAME. You won't doe if you don't play it. Go outdoors and get some sunshine.

Will probably get this, although I'm a bit wary of what wikipedia describes as a combat system similar to FFXII's..

Oh God. Just Dl'ed this. Just one more go. Then I'll do that thing.

It's an expensive piece of kit with an uninspiring range of launch titles possibly?

SSX3 is the boss of this series. This is the 'Vice City' of SSX. The one which inexplicably gets the most fan-love, despite not being the best.

Oooooh Pokemon Quest!

@2 - that'll be because it's backwards compatible with the wii. Bit pointless NOT having a slot for a sensor bar.

I personally favour old-skool C64 beige.

Massively misleading headline. The key phrase is 'Meta-analyses reveal that violent video game EFFECT SIZES are larger than the effect of second hand tobacco smoke on lung cancer, the effect of lead exposure to I.Q. scores in children, and calcium intake on bone mass. '
Effect size of a measure of the strength between two variables in a study.
It's NOT saying 'games are worse for you than smoking' it's saying 'there's quite a strong corealation between findings and theory'.

Been reading good things about this all week, now off to buy it.

They should have just called it 'I can't believe it's not Layton' and had done with it.

£25 quid for three 8 and 16 bit games? Pass.

I suspect that sales will be less than of the wii.
Look at the PS2's sales as opposed to the PS3.

This is outstanding. One of the finest games of the last generation, in a any format. I'm now on my third copy.

Intriguing. There's been a lack of quality releases on Wiiware since Christmas, this could be a cracker if updated properly and not just lazily ported.

I can't imagine a handheld version of MH being anything other than a wrist-aching nightmare, lord knows the controls are 'unique' as it is..

I think this sort of thing falls under the large umbrella of 's**t no-one cares about' ultimately.

Looks to have elements of God Of War to me.

I BET they're BOTH rubbish.

No wiiware?
Nintendo doesn't care about this service

I say 'French speaking nation' when I mean 'has a large number of the populace who speak French'.

The offer still stands..

Canada is a French speaking nation is it not?

I may be able to do you a deal....

Hell yes, it's on its way back as I write this.

Although I was VERY tempted to try and ebay it off to some other mug

When's the English version officially coming out?

I bought a copy off of Pixmania.

Only to find it all in French...

I've said this before and I'll say it again.

There's a HUGE reserve of untapped C64 games out there BEGGING for a VC release. I came to consoles somewhat late in life(my first console, as opposed to a 'computer' was a PSOne) and so a lot of old console games don't have that nostalgia element so important in seeing past some of the more outdated aspects of play, but c64 games? Now we're talking.

The C64 version of Turrican(arguably THE definitive version), CREATURES, Infiltaror, Elite, Mercenary, Speedball 2.....I could go on for hours here..

My first impression of that, looking at it?

'Micro Machines' in 2D.

I've just looked for this on Amazon.

It STARTS at 56 quid..

Now....the online mode could be a deal-maker here, wasn't previously THAT interested in this..

Perhaps if third party companies bothered to actually market their games like Nintendo do...

I've said this before and I'll say it again.

Other than wii points, is there anything on Club Nintendo which isn't tat?

When's this coming to the EU then?

there's 'hard' and there's 'needlessly difficult due to poor controls'. CTDX is the latter.

Having played the demo I can't disagree more. The controls are heavy whichever method you use, you die apparently arbitrarily and the whole look and presentation of the thing is painfully reverent to the 16 bit era that it's desperately trying to be part of.

I'm well pleased with the Chronos Twins demo.

I was contemplating buying this, now I've played the demo I've it's got heavy controls, is confusing and plain unfriendly.

Money saved here.
