The game I called "the budget Final Fantasy" has finally been released on the virtual console. I remember this game costing $39.99 retail and Final Fantasy II (IV) costing $59.99.
Thanks for letting us know about these reprints. My copies of Super Princess Peach and Mario Hoops have been ordered from toysrus.com. I've owned Partners in Time since it's release. I have been a big fan of Super Mario RPGs since...Super Mario RPG!
Thanks for the review but I'm still waiting for my copy to ship from amazon. That's ok though since I'm patient. Amazon preorders also receive a $20 future game credit. I'm wondering though if I should have preordered from Gamestop for the artbook.
Good thing I finally decided to finish LostWinds last week. I'm ready for the next chapter. Just have to try not to stop playing and forget about it again after getting about halfway through the story.
Wow this game is challenging. I went back and forth with the enemy in one mission for so long that we killed about 400 of each other's soldiers before I finally won.
Additional stories are 300 points each with the exception of the last story being released in September for 800 points. There will be 3 stories released next month, then 3 more August and a final one in September. I may be incorrect but you can check the instruction manual before buying the game to confirm this if you wish.
Wow, it turns out I have the GC Zelda disc with 4 Zelda games. I'm set. I pop the disc in my Wii and start the game. You do not have sufficient memory. Please manage your memory. Hmmm..I don't want to delete any data from either of my memory cards. So, buy a new GC memory card or buy VC version of MM?
It seems when you clear a stage and try it again, it adds more waves. The first time I cleared the first stage, it had 5 waves. Next time I cleared it, 7 waves. I'm working on it again to see if there's anymore added waves. I am assuming this is why they wave number is in red text, since you didn't do all the waves in this particular stage
The controls are not that great. You can only do the ABC controls to either Y, B or A on the classic controller and the XYZ contols can only be configured to L, R, or X on the classic controller. I don't like it since I like to have at least two punches and two kicks on the face buttons and the remaining punch and kick on the shoulder (my old SNES SF layout). I am stoked at being able to pull off a couple overkills.

My wonderful wife gifted me Epic Mickey. We both love it so far! We've already had Kirby Epic Yarn and love that game too!

Re: Cave Story Update Now Available
@13 Thanks
I notice my original Cave Story is still on my SD card. I suppose the new version doesn't replace the original.
Re: Cave Story Update Now Available
Will this affect our game save? Might we have to start over?

I remember buying this almost 20 years ago because it was the "budget" Final Fantasy priced at $39.99.

Re: DSiWare to get Hacked and Slashed by Zenonia
I might have to pick this up since I find the iPhone version awkward to control.
Re: Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
@Orgone. I'm assuming since Castlevania Rebirth is out today that you've played it to back up that comment.
Re: Review: Pro-Putt Domo (DSiWare)
So let me get this straight. Domo? Not the 711 "Oh Thank Heaven" Domo?

Re: Doc Louis's Punch-Out!! - First Screenshots
I'm wondering if you guys will actually review this sort of minigame when it's released.

Re: Nintendo Download: Masks, Crystals, Chess and Art (US)
And because duplicate comments add to the heaps.
Re: Nintendo Download: Masks, Crystals, Chess and Art (US)
Haha, I remember Doug. That old Nicktoon!

@KnucklesSonic8 It sounds like thewiirocks has tried both R1 and R2.
