I was hoping it would be good, Hudson haven't been as much of a shining star as they used to be. I hear the game is pretty atmospheric, but I'm not sure I'd end up playing it if I actually got it. It'd probably just be a waste of space.
Well, it's official. Scott Pilgrim is now the greatest thing ever. Scott Pilgrim Movie = Zelda Music + Micheal Cera + Scott Pilgrim Scott Pilgrim Game = Anamanaguchi + Paul Robertson + Scott Pilgrim
Am I the only person who's actually bought and played the PC one here? xD It's an amazing game. Infact, I saw this, and I'm fairly sure I can now die happy knowing that Wiiware is in good indie hands.
@outrun2sp: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was made using the Street Fighter 4 engine, so the Wii could handle that. Blazblue has a game coming out for the PSP - while it's not Nintendo, it's not exactly "HD" either. And for the rest of the games, they can keep their generic borefests (I'm looking at you, Heavy Rain and FFVIII).
@Roo: A really, really, really, really small body bag? Makes sense. x3 Eh, I'm British, and I don't really use CN, so congratulations to you over in Australia.
@Egg miester: It doesn't matter what the graphics of the game are. This has the gameplay level of a retail game, and it's selling for much cheaper than that. Stop complaining.
The fact that they took out (or didn't put in in the first place) the blue shell-esque mechanic because it was "dreaded" is something I dislike. The fact that everybody hated it made it interesting and made it so matches could go either way no matter what happens.
@Mahew: To be honest, it's a Nintendo fansite and we all know they tend to be a little bias towards Mario games. I mean no offense to you guys, this is a fine establishment you're running here, but I'm just saying it makes sense for Mario to be the hot topic.
@Aviator: If I worked with Nintendo and was one of the first to play Tetris, I sure as hell wouldn't get a job teaching religion to year 8s. No offense to them, of course. I do love the Gameboy. I still consider the graphics better than some today, however weird that may sound.

Re: Review: Donkey Kong Country Returns (Wii)
I pretty much expected a 10/10 from this. Retro Studios + Donkey Kong = Instant 10/10.
I didn't read the whole review, but did you comment on some of the amazing sillhouette eye candy? It's pretty damn beautiful. Good work, Retro.

Re: My Starry Night
If this game is rubbish, and the review tagline isn't "Waste of Space" I'm suing you for lying about every staff member having a degree in punnery.
Re: Scott Pilgrim Movie Features Zelda Music, Gets Miyamoto's Thumbs-Up
Well, it's official. Scott Pilgrim is now the greatest thing ever.
Scott Pilgrim Movie = Zelda Music + Micheal Cera + Scott Pilgrim
Scott Pilgrim Game = Anamanaguchi + Paul Robertson + Scott Pilgrim
Greatest thing in existance.
Re: Shantae is Nearly Finished but Not Submitted
@smashbrawler331: Which is in turn about one size larger than your average stickman.
Re: Podcast: Episode 16 - Get Ready for E3!
I'll consider this podcast NL's birthday present to me, and I'll consider it a pretty damn good one. E3's gonna rock. :3
Re: Review: Art Style: Penta Tentacles (WiiWare)
Is that an Oracular Spectacular pun I see? :3
Anyway, I'm getting this. This is one of those occasional times when I'm glad that I'm British. : P
Re: Pokémon Black & White Set in Megalopolis Where Nature and Man Co-exist
Looks pretty awesome. Staying firm that the starters look ridiculous.
Re: Complete Your Living Room: My Fireplace Stoking up WiiWare
I don't know what you guys are talking about, this game looks awesome!
Re: Don't Get Too Attached to 3DS Name, says Iwata
The 3S. : P
Re: MySims Head Ever Skyward with SkyHeroes
I just realized that MySims reminds me greatly of LEGO. How odd. :3
Re: Hey Now, Kirby Wii Might Actually Be Happening This Time
In June? Best birthday present ever.
Re: Fancy Playing Super Mario Bros. With Other Nintendo Characters? Now You Can
Yeah, my friend Dean linked me to this yesterday. I was like "YES". I actually play as Link :3
Re: PC Indie Games Compilation Coming to DSiWare in Earnest
YESSSSSSS.
This massively entertains me. Now we just need the recently released Sleep is Death.
Oh, and I'd like a Matt Thorson Anthology. That'd be pretty interesting.
Re: BlazBlue Blows Overseas to Western Shores, Swaps Some Letters on the Way
For some reason, the new title deeply infuriates me. : D
Re: Cave Story Win a Wiimote Compo Winner
I'd congratulate him, but I'm too busy wallowing in my own despair.
I mean, congratulations, Bakajin : P
Re: Review: Surviving High School (DSiWare)
@2. My mind has also been blown.
Re: Super Mario Galaxy 2 Forecast is Cloudy with Chance of Co-Op
The trailer actually scares me.
Re: Monster Hunter Creators Will Not Appear at GAME'S Lanch Event This Friday
@Kid_A: Damnit, I was going to say that.
Re: Kaiju Busters
I wanted this game, but I'm still not to sure whether to import. 8D
Re: Are You One Of The 7500 Who Signed Their Souls Away To Gamestation?
...
I bought something from Gamestation on April 1st.
Noooooooo! =P
Re: Monster Hunter Creators to Meet UK Fans Next Friday
Sigh. London.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th & 21st April (Japan)
Fall in the Dark looks like Spelunky, am I the only person who thinks that? 8D
Re: Noitu Love 2's 'Devolution' Path on the WiiWare Service
Am I the only person who's actually bought and played the PC one here? xD
It's an amazing game. Infact, I saw this, and I'm fairly sure I can now die happy knowing that Wiiware is in good indie hands.
Re: Monster Hunter 3 to Feature Regular New Online Quests
@The Fox: The game truly is amazing. Nintendo Power gave it a 9, by the way.
Re: Konami Sheds More Light on A Shadow's Tale
I'm buying it. Games like this really appeal to me for whatever reason.
Re: Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 Could Be On Its Way
@outrun2sp: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom was made using the Street Fighter 4 engine, so the Wii could handle that. Blazblue has a game coming out for the PSP - while it's not Nintendo, it's not exactly "HD" either. And for the rest of the games, they can keep their generic borefests (I'm looking at you, Heavy Rain and FFVIII).
Re: Interviews: Tomorrow Corporation
Gray's last comment made me laugh so hard.
Re: New Gifts for Club Nintendo Australia
@Roo: A really, really, really, really small body bag? Makes sense. x3
Eh, I'm British, and I don't really use CN, so congratulations to you over in Australia.
Re: La-Mulana Test Play 5 Video
Looks delicious.
Re: Happy "Nintendo Life" Anniversary!
Happy anniversary, chaps. I didn't realize it was this time already.
Re: New Super Mario Galaxy 2 Trailer
@lex0plex: Well, if you look in the Game Summary...
"Series:
Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Bros."
So yeah, looks like it.
Re: Round Table: Mario's Past and Future
I also agree with pikmaniac, but then again, I'm still a rabid Sonic fanboy after all these years so what do I know. :]
Re: Feature: The Making of Star Fox
Nintendo Magazine System is an awful name for a magazine. (as shown in one of the screenshots)
Re: Cave Story
100th post get! : D Also, amazing, amazing game.
Re: Nintendo's 3DS Announcement Wasn't Supposed to Happen Like That
For some reason, I laughed hard at "The Land of Not Japan". Maybe I'm crazy.
Re: Suda51 Keen on Making Game With Nintendo
Make it happen, Nintendo.
That is all.
Re: Review: WarioWare: D.I.Y. (DS)
Have it. My game "Squidplosion" is awesome. :3
Re: First Impressions: Sora o Kakeru Shōjyo Shooting
"old-school shooting action (and teenage anime girls)"
Yep, this game sure is Japanese. Anime and nostalgia.
Re: Review: Tornado Outbreak (Wii)
I enjoyed Tornado for the DS, but I'm still holding out for a Katamarii Damacy, so I probably won't pick this up.
Re: Nintendo Download 22nd March 2010 (North America)
Curses. My Ameri-Wii is broken right now! No Cave Story! DDDD:
Re: Cave Story to Cost 1200 Wii Points
@Egg miester: It doesn't matter what the graphics of the game are. This has the gameplay level of a retail game, and it's selling for much cheaper than that. Stop complaining.
Re: Review: Wonder Momo (Virtual Console / TurboGrafx-16)
@Sean: Yes, you play it for... "tight" reasons. Oh my.
Re: More Last Story Artwork Emerges, Looks Suitably Gorgeous
I find the predominant cats deeply suspicious.
Oh well. Lookin' good, LS.
Re: Earthworm Jim Wriggling Onto DSiWare
@Lonnie2Hottie: I can too, but I required facial reconstruction afterwards.
Re: Interviews: Steve Lycett - Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing
The fact that they took out (or didn't put in in the first place) the blue shell-esque mechanic because it was "dreaded" is something I dislike. The fact that everybody hated it made it interesting and made it so matches could go either way no matter what happens.
Re: Podcast: Episode 14 - Mario Month is Here!
@Mahew: To be honest, it's a Nintendo fansite and we all know they tend to be a little bias towards Mario games. I mean no offense to you guys, this is a fine establishment you're running here, but I'm just saying it makes sense for Mario to be the hot topic.
Re: Feature: The Making of the Nintendo Game Boy
@Aviator: If I worked with Nintendo and was one of the first to play Tetris, I sure as hell wouldn't get a job teaching religion to year 8s. No offense to them, of course.
I do love the Gameboy. I still consider the graphics better than some today, however weird that may sound.
Re: BIT.TRIP RUNNER Gameplay Trailer
Anyone else notice Meat Boy around 1:29 on the video? Seems like Gaijin are returning the favour.
