Chrono Trigger is coming to the DS, mark that one off your wanted list, it was announced yesterday, I know this is the wiiware site btw, but I haven't gotten around to making myself a VC-Reviews member haha, this sucks though! and i also know this is off topic! sorry!
@Symphonia King check out the other games the developers of Pirates are making and see if you're still interested in it. Total garbage lol, there's an article about it on IGN.
we need a new console game of this type though, it's been awhile since we've had a brand new castleroid type game, there have been remakes, but nothing really new
@strade32 we don't even have much evidence to determine whether the game will be good or not. However, we do know that the game is artistic, and that Luc Bernard is very creative.
yeah this game picks up the difficulty fast, and you lose 200,000 dollars if you lose all your lives, it's a lot of fun, and the casino theme doesn't take away from the game at all, in fact, it's quite charming, i own dr.mario rx, DYC, gyrostarr, and this game, and I rank this right up there with Dr.Mario, if not higher!
i'm still confident we'll get it, SSR was originally a Japan-only release, but Hudson decided America should have it too. If we don't get it, i'm going to be so sad though, I'm not a fan of pc-gaming unless it's RTS.
WHAT!!! NO NEXT GEN GRAPHIX AND WAGGLE CONTROL WTFFFFFFF!!! I WANT ONLINE DEATH MATCHES WITH FRIEND CODE EXCHANGES AND LOBBIES WHERE I CAN PRACTICE BLASTING MY ARM CANNON AT SANDBAGS! THIS IS DISGRACEFUL!! I WANT A REAL MEGAMAN SEQUEL, LIKE A SEQUEL TO X COMMAND MISSION OR MEGAMAN RACING!
haha kidding, Capcom is smart, one of those game companies you can't help but love.
i was playing this again lastnight, and as I was shooting my blaster (upgrades or no upgrades doesn't matter) I was watching how the blast follows along the path you shoot it in, so you can hit enemies around corners and stuff, it's pretty cool looking, but anyway, I really think this game has no reason to be compared to SSR.
SSR is a competitive shooter, this is simply a game to pass the time, you're never going to see gyrostarr tournaments, it was just meant to be entertaining and to do so at a good price.
And I think it accomplishes both of those very well.
if you turn off the wii, while gyrostarr is on, even the main menu, it deletes your progress, you have to return to the wii home menu, then turn it off
hmm, this seems interesting, japan have keep it though, i'd rather just buy comics from the local comic shop, i can get like 20 for 5 dollars from this place called Mad Cats, and they're good comics.
@andy836 I'm thinking we might get a 2 wiiware 1 vc week, then a 2 vc and 2 wiiware week but one of the games will be beer pong
i had an idea, nintendo would publish it design make blahblah whatever, anyway, it would be a side scrolling shooter, where you control link, except he has a magic tunic with angel wings on it, and you fly and use the master sword for close range, and the bow for long range, and bombs clear the screen of enemies, anyway, you fly around and yeah, it's basically r-type with an elf boy and his flying tunic, sounds fun right??
Gyrostarr has an interesting combo system, it builds up slow but once you get it to 5x on everything, and set up smart shots and clear house with the bombs, it's pretty exciting, the more I play gyrostarr the more i like it, it could definetly benefit from ranking that makes sense and individual player profiles though
I bought this! There are certain levels where you kind of...fall into this "zen" zone, and your dodging and grappling and shooting and everything is going perfect, and at the end of the level you're just breathless, then there are other levels where you don't even need guns all you need is to dodge and you're like bleh, so I'd give it a 7/10 too.

@thewiirocks
DYC is superb! I've clocked wayyy more hours into that game than i thought I would (I bought it with left over wii points)
I'd also like to say that Block Breaker Deluxe is a very good deal at 800 points, there's a lot of content and it gets hard!
Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in America (2nd July)
@thewiirocks
just curious, what are your favorite current wiiware titles??
Re: Final Fantasy: My Life as a King Downloadable Content
@zss_shadow
is that a joke or are you being serious??
Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in America (2nd July)
Go Gyrostarr!
Drive Fast,
in a futuristic Car
Go Gyrostarr!
Blast other guys,
With 4 different weapons
Or Maaaaybe five!
I can't remember,
but it's awesome anyway!
Go Gyrostarr!
Lightning Fast,
But only on the later levels you are
Go Gyrostarr!
Pokemon Ranch is garbage
You are the head honcho
Las Palabras de mi madre
Tu es muy bonita
y facil en el gato!

haha the youtube videos are really "bare-bones"
but doesn't it seem good considering it's only going to cost 500 points??

However! Being the nice American boy I am, I'm going to throw Europe a party to celebrate the release of Brawl!
