Great to be back, time for me to add my two cents. To begin with I'm a hardcore Bplus, I own both Plattchen and Niki, and I'm happy with my purchase(Niki was a gift). Albeit a few oversights the reviewer made, I wholeheartedly agree with the review. I saw unbiased, in depth footage, and it doesn't show anything signifigant. Secondly, on a note to the haters, it's not as bad as it looks, the level design is underwhelming paired with cheap AI, but is not poor by any means. Third, to the defenders who say it's a high score game, if the core experience is AGONIZING, why would someone come back to it to top their score? That's like me saying Big Rigs has great replayability, be beating the opponents in a shorter time. Please keep in mind I'm not saying Bit Boy!! is like Big Rigs in any way, I know someone will pull that. I end my comment with this. I love Bplus' works except this one, I never liked the concept, or to be exact, their ulterior motives for it, trying to compensate because of their games being bombed by not so favourable reviews, and SOME a bit closed minded and underinformed, but that's another fight. Bottom line, stop deluding yourselves avid defenders because it's not that good, it has blatant design flaws, and the haters, to each their own who BACKED THEIRS UP like Doogle, to those who just hate them, give at least ONE game a try, and to those who only join the bandwagon(I know, I do it too), make your OWN opinion. My rant's done, feel free to flame. Ugh, disgusting.
@diego_pmc: can you say 'lawsuit'? But fanboys might cheer because it could kill off a few casuals.
Personally, I find it more as a piss taking sensor for a stealth game. You're so close, your heart races, then you're caught. It would make it in depth but I wouldn't use it. I see a lot of other uses, but the possibilities are locked up.
I'm CONSIDERING a PS3 because I like those freaky enhanced graphics and those exclusive games plus PSN, where the PS One classics hold a great deal of nostalgia on me. But these statements are really taking the **** out of me, a major turn off Sony, clean up your act, and I'll see if I can add your system to my gaming family(me, Wii, TV, controllers, DS).
Mmm... Swords & Soldiers looks delicious. A must buy for me, and since I've never played a Mario Vs. Donkey Kong game, I'll pick up the game when I get my DSi, using me freebie 1000 points.
Yes! YEEEEES! Bubble Bobble+ for 600! I better switch gears to begging now. As for the update itself, good overall, obviously, I'll be picking up Bobble Bobble+, but it seems to be the only thing for me this week. But, on another note, what is wrong with everything? When Nintendo finally starts letting the games flow, everyone starts clashing, it's NA vs. EU all over again! Does Nintendo have to crap out on us again for us to band against our common enemy? Although it is biting the hand that gives gifts but whatever. Not looking forward to next week, I HAVE to play a Final Fantasy game.
EDIT: I'm neutral in NA vs. EU, but I'll be more than glad to stir the pot.
Eh, I'm still in for it. @Wiiloveit- yeah Plattchen and Niki were great, even though I've beaten neither at this moment \_\. But I think it should be released on WiiWare even though the market is broader. They'll get shot down by most of the errr... not too fond people aware of the games. But I'll pick it up on retail either way, even though I have to go to GameStop.
Hmm... never played a Final Fantasy game, so I'll be sure to pick it up. And for the episodic content, why not have seperate stories as DLC for 200-500 and the whole package is 800-1000.
What's mext an RPG that has a DSi door or something? BUUUT on toopic, what a waste of time, processing and money. <_< Let's see a new game come onto the field.
The high price point is probably because it's a "brand name," I'll get a generic RPG esque tower defending game then. But to the point of these games, if they release the games simaltaneously, or consecutivley, I might just get one, but if they have a decent spacing I'll get them both if I'm satisfied with the first/second one.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Shaping Up To Acquire Troubled Atlus
My worry is Persona 5. I hope the project isn't cancelled entirely because of the acquistion. Plus, will it sell well on a new platform?
Re: 3DS Screenshot Site Does What It Says On the Tin
And if something along the lines of We Move: Pain vs. Pleasure comes onto the board again? I assume it'll ensue the lulz.

Rocking review, can't wait to get my grubby little hands on it. And if sales boom, will we get a Pop+ Versus?
I made a little Pop Flipnote too:
Re: Extreme Hangman Coming to DSiWare
The sadist in me is already hooked, offer a bit more substance and a decent price point, then it's an instabuy for me.
Re: Review: Incoming! (WiiWare)
The tank game that tanked, how ironic. Will there be more games like this?
Re: Gaijin Games Releases BIT.TRIP Teaser
Yeah, this further solidifies my guess we'll get something like BIT.TRIP TWIST or along the lines of it.

This is strange, this is pretty small, even for Japan.

Re: First Impressions: Escape Virus
One comment now, why not be the second? Hmmm... it looks good, but the package all together seems a bit.... random.
Re: Lead the Meerkats Coming To WiiWare
Umm... I expect there will be a HEALTHY amount of options, right? Or you will definitly lose me.

Re: Interviews: Vektor Tank - Bplus
Great interview Corbie! Proud owner of Plättchen and Niki, and looking forward to the next ones!
Re: Check Out Some Final Fantasy IV: The After Years Gameplay
Wow lots of criticism associated with the episodic content. I'll get it anyway though, peer pressure from Final Fantasy junkies.
Re: Check Out Some Final Fantasy IV: The After Years Gameplay
Hmm... never played a Final Fantasy game, so I'll be sure to pick it up. And for the episodic content, why not have seperate stories as DLC for 200-500 and the whole package is 800-1000.

Re: Capcom Confirms Monster Hunter 3 Tri For Western Release
Cool I could use MH in my library.
Re: Review: Rainbow Islands: Towering Adventure! (WiiWare)
This seems like a letdown for me. I never played the original Rainbow Islands, but according to this review I won't be getting the update either.
Re: Bit.Trip Bug!
Haha! I like the Plättchen-esque bug. It makes me strive for a better score or I can't proceed.
Re: NSFW: Manhunt 2 Wishes It Was This Hardcore
Thankies! Man that was funny!

My list:
Pyoro
Dr. Mario
200 point game or app.
Just enough to keep my hands busy.
Re: More DSiWare Titles Revealed
Instant gratification, we all suffer from that.
Re: More DSiWare Titles Revealed
I just need something to keep me busy, so these things work.
Re: More DSiWare Titles Revealed
One comment now, why not be the second.
I'm getting Dr. Mario Express, although the express title is off putting.
Re: Ubisoft announces first DSi-enhanced game
@NESGamepro, lol true.
What's mext an RPG that has a DSi door or something? BUUUT on toopic, what a waste of time, processing and money. <_< Let's see a new game come onto the field.
Re: Crystal Defenders R1 and R2 Coming to Europe Soon As Well!

Re: Crystal Defenders R1 and R2 Coming to Europe Soon As Well!
Screw that then, that's a whole points card.
Re: WiiWare Versions of Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands Coming to Europe Soon
Yay, now NA please? Ah who am I kidding, but it's good to keep my wavering hope.
Re: Crystal Defenders R1 and R2 Coming to Europe Soon As Well!
One comment now... why not be the second?
Okay, why split it up into two games, are they trying to pull that pokemon version thing? Because they're going to run me into the poor house.
Edit: So they have to break it up into two games because of the size limit? I hope they keep their prices at about 700 each.
