I'm not going to say that this game was a big disappointment to me because i wasn't expecting it to be a masterpiece to begin with. I fail to see what is so amazing about this game and after playing it everything seems to be worse than i expected.

That's just a really bad excuse...

I've played this game on PC and loved it. Great review!

He's talking about stupid fanboys, if somehow you felt offended by his comment, then sorry, you belong to that group.

The only chargers that interest me are the ones that allow me to play my games while the console is being charged. I have to say that i'm very concerned about that on the 3DS, because that charge cradle don't look so confortable.

Japanese gamers have a weird gaming taste. No surprise here...

@30. SilverBlacktail

Now you know about two, 'cause i don't think the BIT.TRIP games are all that. They're not bad games, but i never got too excited by none of them.

I loved the first two, but i've never finished none of them. I always stop playing for whatever reason...

I tried the game and didn't like it at all.

I completely agree with the score, the game is a bit generic, but it's fun as hell.

@ Stuffgamer1

You know that the only StarFox game Rare worked on was StarFox Adventures, no?

Oh god, i've got stop reading about the 3DS, otherwise my head will soon explode...

Fair score. This game is very fun and you can get used to the waggle, i recommend this title instead of Furry Legends, for exemple.

I don't know what i hate most in this game: the repetitive music, the clumsy controls or the inconsistent frame rate.

I'll come back later when they have something to show...

Yeah, they should have released this game as DLC for Tetris Party. If you look for the game data in the disc, it has only 55.3 MB. The biggest WiiWare titles have 42 MB which let us with a difference of only 13.3 MB.

@zkaplan

That makes perfectly sense.

There is a problem with the third prize, Nintendo never launches a new game every month...

@ vonseux

Yes, it is.

@23

While i still thinking this game is going to be great, nothing that was showed until now makes me want to play it. I have no problems with changes, because i loved Metroid Prime since the first videos and i remember loving the Wind Waker art style from the very first time i saw it.

Coming soon to a theater near you...

Seriously, i wanted to get excited by this game, but i just can't. Retro, i miss you...

I prefer the Rabbids in party games. I played Rabbids Go Home once and never touched it again, on the other hand, the previous games in the series i play every now and then with my girlfriend.

Altough i love the N64 version, i don't see why Mario Tennis is better than Mario Power Tennis. Everything is better in the GameCube version, just turn off the power shots. However, in the Wii version the controls are totally screwed.

Good to see another N64 game on VC, but i think Mario Power Tennis (GC version) is a better game in every aspect. However, the NPC version is crap...

I can't say that Kinect isn't technologically interesting, but i doubt Microsoft will be able to sell that thing.

Retro Studios + Donkey Kong + Country + 4 = SUCCESS!

C'mon, the man is obviously holding his excitement to not spoil any of the surprises that will see at E3. I hope so...

Now she should write a new letter asking for some games.

@warioswoods: Haha, good one!

Excellent review Sean! Congrats!
The game is very addictive, but World of Goo still holds the crown of best WiiWare game, IMO of course.

Yeah, SEGA used the emulator jEnesisDS created by Stephan Dittrich (Lordus) for the homebrew community.

Yeah, this game deserves a 9/10 at least. It's a much better game than Picross DS.

@ timp29
I second that.

Maybe Nintendo can show SEGA how to make Sonic controls flawlessly in 3D.

The first one was a very unique experience with a great soundtrack. I hope it's a sequel.

Now Wii have four Famitsu perfect scores, in less than 2 years:

• Super Smash Bros. Brawl
• 428: Fūsa Sareta Shibuya de
• Monster Hunter Tri
• New Super Mario Bros. Wii

@ JimLad

I share the same opinion, the companies that developed for the N64 with passion (Rare, Nintendo, Camelot, Treasure, Hal, Hudson, Boss, Atari, Midway, etc) released some of the biggest masterpieces of the video game industry.

I have no doubt that the Nintendo 64 is the best console ever made, IMO.

I can say that i'm a experienced gamer but i'm not too persistent when it comes to beat hard levels or bosses, if it become too frustrating i usually just let it go and play another game. I think this Guide Mode is very interesting.

I have a bad feeling about the WM+, it seems to me that most third-parties developers won't take advantages of it at all.

I agree a 100% with the score, the game is unbelievable! Great review Corbie!

@43: When it starts to get interesting, it's over! But it's a very good game and i recommend to all the Contra fans.

Nice game, but too short!

This game does look impressive and the controls are great, there's no need to worry about it.
Now, about waggle, which i think is a somewhat pejorative term, those who says the Wii Remote isn't accurate enough don't knows it well (overall, mostly are users in this case) or are lazy when working on the controls (developers). The combo Wii Remote + Nunchuk has at least 4 fast access buttons (A, B, C, Z), which i think is more than needed in any action game, other commands like inventory access or pause can be easily performed by the other buttons. I can't see a point to complain about the Wii controls.

@pixelman: Yeah, if every chapter cost the same you'll pay $50 for the game, it should be a retail release after all.

I bet mostly Wii users don't even know what HD is. I think that's the Nintendo point.

@ KeeperBvK
From what i can remember, mostly, or maybe all the puzzles were in the DS version, so if that's what is holding you from buying the game, i think you should pass.

@ Ren - The game has four "rooms", each room has 3 levels, each level has nearly 50 shapes. Overall the game features about 600 shapes and that is quite a lot.

NEVES is not new but is a ton of fun and has many game modes including multiplayer. For it's price, is a steal!

@ The Fox: the problem is that he has insulted over 50 million people in his comment and should think before acting like a tool, which is the only way he can actually act.

I don't feel like reviewing Icarian, but for those who aren't sure about downloading it, my recommendation is: DO IT NOW!

The game is simple yet fun, plus it have a nice presentation. It's all i expect from a Wiiware game.
