@MarcusA Try developing independent software for something that doesn't go hand in hand with piracy, like a PC for example. I don't sympathize with you one bit since you knew how flash cards are viewed and decided to spend time developing for it anyways.
I'm not surprised the Wii would do well over the holidays. It's basically the family friendly machine where everyone in the family might be a potential target to get it as a gift, there's just a bigger market for it. What surprises me more is the PS3 outselling the 360, even after the massive 360 console bann-wave.
@110percentful Correcting a Germans grammatical errors in English sure helps you prove a point, especially when it's not their first language. You just added to his statement in spades.. Not that I agree with him, but comeon, really?
oh wow, i got this on release, i even bought a new TV because i felt my old one didn't do the games justice, it's THAT good. If you haven't got this game yet, you'll soon regret it.
It's sad that the majority of people around here would rather pollute more just because Greenpeace attacked their favorite gaming company. Nerd-rage more please.
@jangonov If company's could get away from the bad press by ignoring to give out any information then I'm sure we'd only see 10's. Or are we to simply accept that they keep silent while polluting like none other?
@jangonov Way to contradict yourself.. As long as Nintendo refuse to provide any information, why should we trust that it's anything but the worst possible? I'm not saying it is, I'm just saying it might as well be until they prove otherwise.
Green Peace is a bunch of loud mouthed activists, but they do raise awareness and if Nintendo really is polluting way above average then they deserve to be under a telescope and should look to better themselves. It might not make a difference in our lifetimes, but we're not the last generation of humans to walk this earth.
@aaronsullivan Tell that to my wii-mote who doesn't pick up half of my waggles. And I stick by my statement about throwing the actual ball will improve you alot more than a Wii game ever will.
The only way to achieve the level where Brady is at, is not through a Wii game. It's practice, practice and hope you have got some real f***ing talent behind that thick skull of yours.
This has fail written all over it, you'll get as good at football doing this as you'll get fit/strong playing Wii fit, as in not at all.
@Ezekiel what are you talking about, the majority of contests all around the internet, access to beta and so on are exclusively for USA/Canada. Anyways, this sounds cool!
@IanDaemon start at the beginning and work your way from there. let me hit you with another one, why set up surveillance cameras at stores when shoplifters will only find a blind spot. why have thick steel doors at vaults in banks when serious bankrobbers are just going to find a way to get into there anyways. AND SO ON. No matter how extreme my examples may be it's basically the same meaning.
You should never give up against thieves, EVER, as I said, don't give them the satisfaction. And I'm glad that any sane person knows this or we'd have anarchy on our hands if people could just take whatever they want with no protection against it.
@Adam You're right, and while we're at it, let's stop sending people to prison when all it will do is delay them for a couple of months/years. I know I took the example to the extreme, but you get my point. Never give up, don't give those pirates the satisfaction.
The news that this game would be Japan only was one of the saddest gaming news I've ever heard. Definitely importing the US version when it's released!
How about they release FFIV first on VC as they have promised, many gamers i'm sure even Final Fantasy fans have never played FFIV before and won't get this unless it's out for VC.. personally i'll wait, what's the point of playing a sequel..
It's a shame, one would think that with 32GB SDHC cards now supported we would see a bit more releases like this. Guess i'll have to settle for VC fighters
I'm playing it for the first time on the DS now. Being a big j-rpg buff i've played so many rpg's i've really lost count. And I can do nothing but agree with the hype over this game, it's the most enjoyable rpg i've ever laid my hands on.
If you haven't played this yet then you should, it's even worth getting a DS for.
I feel bad for the developers, Nintendo is really screwing them over with this deal. Sure it would inspire people to make better games, but this isn't the way to go about it.

Re: Konami Readying Castlevania Collection For Wii?
@Damo
Not everyone has a 360 / PS3 you know. I know they're released for those systems, but that hardly helps me now does it?
Re: Konami Readying Castlevania Collection For Wii?
If SotN get's re-released that will be all I need to buy this disc. Make it happen Konami!

Re: Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
@pie4prez
Unless Konami buys the Metroid IP(that's never going to happen btw) a ReBirth of that series is unlikely to be made.

Re: Harvest Moon: Frantic Farming Coming to DS in August
it's amazing this franchise is still around, seeing as it went downhill after Harvest Moon(SNES) which is an awesome game by the way.

Re: OFLC Update: Super Mario Kart Finally Coming!
There's no discussion about this one, 64 is great and all, but it's nowhere near Super Mario Kart. Instant download!
Re: First Look - Pop Plus: Solo
I'm getting this, i never really got into it on the wii, but DS seems like a great platform for it. Nice time-waster if you ever need one.

If you haven't played this yet then you should, it's even worth getting a DS for.
