@ Rift Whatever you wanna call it. If you just tried button mashing your way through Other M I imagine you'd get killed pretty quick. Did you even make it to the end or did you just give up? I think other M haters were just expecting another Super Metroid. It ain't gonna happen people.
I don't care how many people wanna hate on Other M. I personally enjoyed it and would like to see the next Metroid take ideas from the last game and expand on it. Samus needed a personality and no matter how you feel about the one they gave her at least she's more human now. If you played Fusion you'd know she's more than just an emotionless alien blasting bad ass. If you wanted that you're playing the wrong franchise.
I keep trying to talk myself into Zombie BBQ but I get the feeling I'll be let down. Seems like it would get old fast. If I didn't already have Chronos twins on Wiiware i'd probably download the Dsiware version.
Oh brother, Another Wiiware title that ain't worth crap. See this is why we need La-mulana. To save Wiiware from the flood of garbage that's been getting released lately.
When and if this game does get released there better not be any glitches or other problems. Remember when Cave story finally hit Wiiware? Yeah let's have no more screw ups like that. As long as this is taking it better be perfect. Now GIMMIE DAMMIT! We've waited long enough.
Metroid 2 on Gameboy was actually the start of my love for the series. It was only magnified when I got my hands on Super Metroid. Been a fan ever since! I couldn't really play the first one worth a damn though. I like this series for breaking away from the norm. It proved all videogame girls don't have to be helpless damsels waiting to be rescued.
@ LTD Thanks for that sample of picross. I think I get the hang of it now. I may go ahead and get it. It'll be good for when I want a little a brain teaser.
LOL @ everyone proclaiming the death of Nintendo. Get over yourselves. You act as if this is the first time Nintendo has fallen on hard times. Guess you weren't there for the N64's day or the Virtual boy. they aren't going to suddenly sink into the Abyss over this.
Awesome! I loved Detana Twinbee on Wii VC. Sure glad the next 3D classic wasn't Urban Champion. How bout we skip that one all together? Now if Konami would do 3D Graduis I'd be thrilled!
Can't we already get pretty much any Nes game we ever wanted on Wii VC by now? What's left that hasn't already been released? I can't really think of any that I wanted that hasn't already been made available.
No Gameboy games two weeks in a row? That's some BS. I guess they don't want to take the attention away from that Golf game that probably stinks anyway.
Surely you'd think that GBA games will eventually be available to everyone right? I don't have to worry about it but It wouldn't seem fair if those GBA games never were on there for anybody with a 3DS.
Awesome! Guess I'm covered then. I've had my 3DS since launch. Giving away 20 Nes games for free is hard to believe though. I had a feeling GBA games would be coming but never expected Nes.
If this thing doesn't come out soon I'll be out of the mood. I've almost forgotten it even existed. Lately Wiiware has been one crushing dissapointment after another. We need La-Mulana now so we can finally get one last good game before the Wii dies.
So this get's a whole 3 extra points compared to the Nes version just for being 3D? How does it go from a 4/10 to 7/10 so easily? I skipped the Wii VC version but this one has me tempted.
I used to have a little stuffed Gizmo doll I carried around with me when I was a kid. I was obsessed with those movies. I remember they had a Gremlins game on Nes that I rented alot. It was actually pretty good. I might have to track it down sometime.
I've got no problem at all with Ganon being left out this time. It was getting old having him in every Zelda game. This new guy seems interesting. Let's hope his character is memorable. Anyone know how his name is pronounced?
It sure annoyed me when Wiiware came along and pushed aside the real games on VC. Those old favorites we all know and love got put on hold even longer. The fact is most of those Wiiware games are half ed trash.
Wiiware for the most part has been a big letdown. Only the Retro styled revival games were truly satisfying to me. Mega man 9 and 10 still stand as my favorite games on the service. It's a real shame when things like La-mulana get held back until god knows when but they keep adding garbage instead.
When a game is cancelled doesn't that mean there's no going back? I mean... When you're dead that's it right? Anyways it's looking like Mega man 9 and 10 was Capcom's way of saying goodbye to our blue hero. The next time we all hear any news about a new Mega man game we'll all scoff and say.... Yeah right.
Why does every game made or published by Nicalis for Wiiware take so freakin long to be released? What's the problem? Get it out and stop teasing us dammit!
Xevious is not nor was it ever a good game. Adding 3D to it doesn't suddenly make it a good game. Just look at the review for the Wii VC version. A score of 4/10 is not what I'd consider a worthy addition to VC. No need to wait for a review of the 3D classics version. It's the same lousy game in 3D. Yeah that'll suffice for today's update.
How did they get enough support when making Mega man 9 and 10? Weren't they affraid that wouldn't turn a profit? After all they were 8-bit games made in a world of HD and high res graphics. Several people (mostly the younger crowd) were complaining about Capcom being lazy for using the old outdated graphics. Somehow they still made an impact and people took notice.
What I wanna know is can our current Wii VC collections be transferred to Wii U? Also will they continue to offer classic titles from the shop as well? It Shouldn't be just Gamecube.
Mega man 2 on Gameboy is the one that really sucks. I don't know what happened to the music but good god. The sound in that one is awful. The best ones are 4 and 5. I owned both back then and played them all the time.
Can't wait until they announce Mega man 11 then pull it right out from under us. All they have left is Zombies and fighting games. This company might as well go bankrupt like so many others lately.
@ KeeperBvk Yes, The stages themselves are slightly different than their Nes counterparts but I've always viewed them as the poor kids Mega man. It was the only alternative for kids who's parents couldn't affort an Nes. mixing the bosses between the games was odd. At least each game had a Wily fortress that was different than the ones on Nes.
Luckily I still have my original cart of Gameboy Mega man V! In some ways I think it's better than the Nes MMV. It's the only game to feature Tango the Robo cat and the planet themed bosses are cool as well. I still pop it in my Super Gameboy sometimes and play it on the TV in color!
Only the 5th Gameboy Mega man is really worth it since it's entirely original and not just a watered down Nes version like 1-4. We kinda already knew this would be coming though. After all Japan got Wily's revenge. Why wouldn't we? If Capcom wants to make up to the fans after the horrible news today how about releasing MM6 and X2, X3 for Wii VC?
The Arcade version of Zevious isn't much better. It was a crap game then. It's still a crap game today. Even for an early shooter this is bottom of the barrel stuff. 3D classic my rear end.
@ afroevan They haven't given up on the Wii VC. Just last week in America we got super E.D.F. for Snes and a couple weeks before that Final Fantasy VI. I don't think the Wii shop is being abandoned just yet.
Another piece of trash for Wiiware. You guys didn't honestly expect quality from the people who brought us Enjoy your Massage right? Why do they keep adding this crap to the shop instead of something think say.... La-Mulana?
Why does Sony always have to do this? Our stuff is better blah,blah,blah. We're not impressed with Nintendo's new junk. It's outdated and only babies would use it. Blah, blah.
What's the matter Sony. You Jelly? Nintendo doesn't do all this mud slinging. why must you?

Re: Metroid Celebrates its 25th Anniversary Today
If Nintendo had any respect for this anniversary at all they'd give us Return of Samus on 3DS VC.
Oh and I'd just like to say Other M did not ruin Samus.
I too am a fan since the early days and I still enjoyed it.
Re: Europe, Your Spirit Will Avenge on 3DS VC Soon
Never heard of this game before.

Not sure I would enjoy it.

Just keep those excellent games coming and I'll keep buying.

Re: Talking Point: The NES Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console
Well I guess it would be neat having portable Nes games.
i just can't imagine there'd be that many people with a 3DS but no Wii.

Yeah I'm looking forward to that one too.
Hopefully we'll see it released before years end.

Re: Capcom Blames the Fans for Mega Man Legends 3 Cancellation
Guess It's all our fault guys.
bad gamers!
Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did.
Hey Capcom... BLOW IT OUT YOUR HINDQUARTERS!
Re: First Impressions: Sonic Generations
Well that's dissapointing. You'd think after the backlash of Sonic 4 they'd figure out how to do the physics right.
Re: GameCube to See New Downloadable Life on Wii U

She doesn't even know the difference between Wiiware and Virtual console.
How credible can this information be?
Re: It's OK Mega Man Fans, Dr Wily's Revenge is Imminent

Excuse me while I jump for joy.
