Toki Tori FTW. TT doesn't get boring after 25 mins.
Maybe if they'd added some damn music so that messing about with the wind on long walking trips wasn't the only thing that you had to do, I'd enjoy it more.
As someone whom hates the Ecco series, I thought 3 was to high a score, lol.
IMO Bubble Bobble needs a 5 though. It's just amazing on co-op. But then again, as there's so few co-op games out there, I always rate co-op games highly.
@Mike
Well we do want them, so I'd love to see more non Ninty games coming through via the imports. And a load of non Ninty games being released normally. Like IK+, ZAMN, Parodius, Castlevania III and Rondo, Green Beret, Combat School, Chase HQ, Chuck Rock, Joe and Mack, Push Over, Snow Bros., North and South etc...
Upon getting the game I'm quite dissapointed, unless I'm mistaken, there seems to be no co-op mode. And without it, IMO SF2 still whups this game all over.
I used to love it and still enjoy it on 2p. My point was though, NC, AB and BF are all 2 Stars games. And IMO some are noticeably better than others. Which makes me wonder why they're all 2 Stars.
If it wasn't for the fact that this game is like 500 points every month for to get the full game, I'd say it looks good. But that really puts me off for what you're getting. Obviously it's hard to tell just what you're getting from these, so I'll be interested in the WWW review.
How funny would it be if Alex had every Poke game, figures for all 493 Pokemon and then the trainers, comics, DVD's, wallpaper etc... Just so that Poke fans can't rag on his score?
Could be worse, it could be a Final Fantasy game that has no action in it what so ever, wait... lol.
FFCCMLAAK is a truly amazing game, and it's irritating to see just how many people are A. Being idiots and buying it without researching it. B. Complaining about the fact that it's a sim game. And C. Saying it sucks because of the above.
I've never wanted this, it's always looked crap, and now I guess I have my proof.
XBL:A had like 20 titles on launch though, and multi region launching. Plus online play, achivements and fairer pricing. So... As you were saying... It's hardly XBL:A is it? lol
I just got bored of the demo after 5 mins. And irritated at the dodgy ball firing. It always went the way I didn't want it too (Like if I needed it to goto the left of the ball, it'd go to the right).
Everyone's different though, and hey, as I've never played this version before, this one might be better and have some cool modes. Can't wait for the WWW review
On a side note, I forseen this week. I knew we were overdue for a 1 gamer.
I'm nearing my 19th gaming year and I'm only just turning 21.
Only ever played II and III on the X-BOX version. I hated both I and II, but loved III. Upon getting I on the VC, I love it. So no idea what I'll think of II and III now. Shame it's looking like I'll never find out :x
See, I still like the game and find fun with it. But unfortunately, I'm the only one. My brother hates it. And therefore it's no SFII to me (Beat 'Em Ups require 2 players. It's why I never play the MK series, as I'm the only one who likes MK out of the lot of us I guess they just hate me pwning them with Sub "AWESOME" Zero).
I understand that it's supposed to be a pause, but it doesn't do what it's supposed to IMO. Because when you see a huge pause, you expect to be about to deal A LOT of damage IMO, and then you just... Don't. Which is why I hate it as much. Because SFII only pauses when you do a significant blow. Either due to damage or due to just a well timed attack that stops your opponent in his tracks.
So it's every minute or so if that. Not every attack.
And I believe the guy I like is called Hontau. I also like the Blue Guile looking guy.
On a final note, I love how there's now screenshots in the actual review boxes, and Damo, don't second guess yourself, it's still a belter review
Firstly, you're gonna have to teach me how to link things.
Secondly, why the hell would they put that in? (I'm not saying that it is a glitch, I'm now simply asking, WHY SNK WHY?!).
It's horrible, because it doesn't do what it's supposed to. It makes you think that you're about to deal a horrific blow, and then you look at the energy bar (Because you have more than enough time), and it takes 2 millimeters if that.
So all I've got left to say is... When the hell is Samurai Shodown Turbo Hyper Fighting coming out? lol
Maybe Ninty are trying to get people to buy past tiltes. NA's top 20 hasn't had a 3rd party title in it for ages. So maybe they're not happy with the state of it and are thinking up ways to change that.
Koresh and Bass, me. I've never played it before the VC and it's atrocious. Take away the Slowdown, and you'd have a really big problem for SFII. But the Slowdown is killing it.
Adroitone, that vid isn't of VC footage. I'll be uploading one later to really show it off.

Re: EU VC Releases - 20th June - Epic Fail
Lame.
Re: Microsoft Befuddled by WiiWare
For online PSN>XBL>NWFC.
For Demo's XBL>PSN.
For downloadable games VC>XBL:A>PSN>WW.
At least for Europe. If we had NA's WW, then WW>PSN.

Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in North America (18th June)
I'll give you Toki, but I haven't played LW since launch. Bro bought it for me and it's one of the most boring games I've ever played.
Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in North America (18th June)
And NA wonder why they get crap VC releases.
Re: Review: Block Breaker Deluxe
I adore Arkanoid, but I've never been a fan of Ark clones, so I'll be skipping this one.
Re: Review: Cocoto Fishing Master
WOW! A LOT! Higher than I expected.
Re: Oxygen Games Interview - Pirates: The Key of Dreams
That's why I want it

You ever get the feeling that they thought it'd be out by now too?

Re: EU WiiWare Releases 13th June: Spare Some Change, Squire?
Pirates would've been nice though, seeing as it's a prequel to the soon to be launched DS game.
Re: Beer Pong Is Evil And Wrong!
And playing Mario makes kids eat strange Mushrooms and special Flowers. Dr. Mario makes them take pills. Manhunt gets them to knife people.
And recent studies show that it's all bull!
And when will these retards learn, THAT BAD MOUTHING IT IS A SURE FIRE WAY TO GET KIDS WANTING IT!
I remember when GTA 1 hit, no one I knew played it because they liked it. They played it 'cause it was taboo.
These people are just morons.
Re: OFLC Update - Super Mario RPG On Its Way To Europe
Cool.
Re: SNK Virtual Console Releases In Jeopardy?
No offence, but I hate articles like this.
Re: EU VC Releases - 13th June - The Last Ninja 2, Alex Kidd and more!
Amazing week, bought all 5, love all 5
IMO Burning Fight and Ninja Combat are very underated. They're no Streets, but they're better than Altered Beast.
Re: MadStone
Does anyone actually know what is going on here? What is the point? It looks like you just literally shoot forever.
Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in North America (11th June)
Odd, I wonder why. Because it surely can't be a language thing. Because then pretty much every country in Europe would require its own list.

Re: Most Popular WiiWare Games in North America (11th June)
Poor Toki Tori. This is why NA are getting crapped on, because devs are sick of them not buying quality games and only going for the hyped up stuff.
Bring on 7 WW games tonight, WE'LL BUY THEM!
Re: Review: My Pokémon Ranch
Super Mario, I read Alex's review, where he states that there's 493 Pokemon

Re: Review: Magnetica Twist
Really didn't expect to like this, but I'm addicted to it. So freaking good. And considering how much I hated Zuma, I'm well shocked.
Re: Samurai Shodown
Yeah, Galford. I play as the Ryu Hayabusa clone, lol.
Re: Ninja Commando
From this description, it sounds like a pretty cool game.
Re: EU - 6th June - No Virtual Console Games!
XBL:A had like 20 titles on launch though, and multi region launching. Plus online play, achivements and fairer pricing. So... As you were saying... It's hardly XBL:A is it? lol
Re: EU WiiWare Update: Actionloop Twist
I don't even enjoy playing Zuma for free. No way I'd pay 1,000 points for it.

Re: EU - 6th June - No Virtual Console Games!
Jogurt, you've obviously never played Zuma/Actionloop then.
One of the worst puzzlers I've ever played. It's just so boring and irritating and it's just plain crap.

Re: USA WiiWare Update: Protöthea And Toki Tori
Hopefully Pirates hits at Midnight
Re: US VC Release - 2nd June - Ninja Combat
Maybe Ninty are trying to get people to buy past tiltes. NA's top 20 hasn't had a 3rd party title in it for ages. So maybe they're not happy with the state of it and are thinking up ways to change that.
Re: Samurai Shodown
Apologies for the delay, but it's up now
Re: Are Shantae Fans Going To Finally Have Their Wish Granted?
Yay, someone else who prefers 2D platformers
Re: Toki Tori Coming To America On Monday!
It's because of tax. It costs £15 for a 2,000 point points card, which works out at about $30.
Re: Toki Tori coming to America on Monday!
Amazing game. Best WW by far
Re: Are Shantae Fans Going To Finally Have Their Wish Granted?
Shame all of these greats hit when I was a skint kid. NINTENDO! GB/C GAMES ON VC, NOW!

Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - June 2008 (Super Mario RPG!)
Bensei, exactly, it was 7 months between our 2. So you never know, maybe in Nov we'll get another
With Gaiden II and III, SMRPG, Earthbound, PSIV and Vania
Re: EU VC Releases - 30th May - Samurai Shodown
Nope, we have a kick ass T.V and Samurai Slowdown is very apparent.
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - June 2008 (Super Mario RPG!)
Ah, I knew they were cheaper. It's just what with comments of people saying that JPN get crapped on with prices threw me off.
Re: EU VC Releases - 30th May - Samurai Shodown
To see how much blood there is, watch my review
Re: King of the Monsters
Me wantee, but where's Mutant Fighter? Most underated fighter ever.
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - June 2008 (Super Mario RPG!)
900 for SMRPG but 700 for PSIV, odd.
