I had this on DS, it's pretty good though I found it got a bit boring after a few hours. I wonder how much it'll be cut down compared to the full retail release.. I might consider buying it again as a download.
I really couldn't get into this after playing Back to Nature and Friends of Mineral Town so much. Just feels too basic.. I got bored after about 2 hours.
I thought it seemed really fast when I was transferring the other day! This is great news, still not ideal but it'll make the whole block situation a lot easier *goes to dowload some new WiiWare games *
I hope we get this on Halloween (next VC week) I've heard some great things about this and over the past few months I've gotten really into the series for the first time.
ONM's 58% review put me off this slightly but I'll be getting it as soon as I next buy Wii points. I now have space for more games as I've finally parted with Toki Tori..
If only this was the EU update! These are 2 of just 4 or so games I want on VC that look they'll be coming over the next few months. Looking back at the news stories the last VC game that actually got me excited by it's release was Kirby 64 on March 7th...
First half of the title had me fooled for a second I've given up waiting, I'll just be surprised if we do get something. I'm a bit fed up though, I've completed less than 20% of my VC games and not played about 15% of them for more than an hour because I've had to delete them before getting a chance.
@52. Pocketim: Don't give up, just keep practicing like I am. You can only get better, right? I saw one of your reviews quickly and it wasn't that bad.
I hope we won't end up waiting about half a year, I used to love this! Can't wait to play it again.
@Cally: I haven't actually played the SNES one but that version was missing the level "Intestinal Distress" so I'm glad it's the MD version we're getting.
I don't know why I even bother reading comments anymore, they always consist of 50%+ moaning posts. =/ The VC is obviously going to slow down eventually, some people are just can't accept that..
I'd download this but I've already gone and bought Turbo because I was told it was the best. Ah well.
It's alright, but I find it hard to control and the tricks are way to difficult to perform... I was thinking about giving it another go but other games take priority.
Damn it. I'd probably have a 360 by now, but I've heard they break a lot and I'm mega unlucky with consoles. =[ Plus I don't really have the time for any more consoles than I have.

Re: Nintendo Download: Earthworm Jim 2, Mahjong, Happy Holidays, Foto Face, Karaoke, Magic and Another Notebook (EU)
I was hoping for A Boy And His Blob... glad we got Earthworm Jim 2 at last though.
Re: Nintendo Download: MUSHA, Smash Table Tennis, My Life as a Darklord and Puzzle League (EU)
I'll save my points for Bit Trip Core and Kirby's Dream Land 3.
Re: Review: Ant Nation (WiiWare)
Haven't heard of it before.. looks interesting though.
Re: Review: Moon (DS)
Looks pretty good, I'll consider getting this sometime.

Re: Melee! Pokemon Scramble announced for WiiWare
Wow! This looks awesome, I hope it comes out here soon!
Re: Nintendo Confirms Metroid Prime Trilogy For Wii
I'm considering getting this if it comes out here, I much prefer using a Gamecube controller than the remote and nunchuk though so I'm not sure.
Re: Nintendo Download: Crystal Defenders R2, Penguins & Friends, PiCOPiCT and Pop Superstar
Meh, I got excited about this week for some reason, which I haven't done for months. We get hardly any VC games nowadays...
Re: Excitebots Crashes Out At Retail
I hope they're not going to decide not to bring it out here... I'm really excited about this game.
Re: Review: Harvest Moon (SNES)
I really couldn't get into this after playing Back to Nature and Friends of Mineral Town so much.
Just feels too basic.. I got bored after about 2 hours.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
Well considering he died over 20 years ago I'd say it probably isn't!
Re: Hudson Not Abandoning Virtual Console After All?
I really want Rondo of Blood and Mario Party. I'm dying to play the first one again, so many memories waiting to be brought back!
Re: EU VC Update: Mario Golf and Wonder Boy in Monster Land
Finally a VC game I actually want! Shame I'm 100 points off and unemployed, won't be able to afford anymore points for a fair while...
Re: Wii Firmware Update Makes Transferring to SD Faster
I thought it seemed really fast when I was transferring the other day!
This is great news, still not ideal but it'll make the whole block situation a lot easier

Re: Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
I hope we get this on Halloween (next VC week)
I've heard some great things about this and over the past few months I've gotten really into the series for the first time.
Re: Treasure: Buy Dynamite Headdy, You Fools
I didn't realise it did badly..
I strongly reccomend you guys to download it, it really is an excellent game!
Re: EU VC Releases: Earthworm Jim and Shining Force II
@41. Starwolf_UK
I should have noticed that.. hopefully you're right!
Re: EU VC Releases: Earthworm Jim and Shining Force II
Yes! I've been waiting for Earthworm Jim for ages, I'll be downloading ASAP
Re: Sonic the Hedgehog
ONM's 58% review put me off this slightly but I'll be getting it as soon as I next buy Wii points. I now have space for more games as I've finally parted with Toki Tori..
Re: USA VC Update: Sonic (Master System) and Splatterhouse 2
If only this was the EU update!
These are 2 of just 4 or so games I want on VC that look they'll be coming over the next few months.
Looking back at the news stories the last VC game that actually got me excited by it's release was Kirby 64 on March 7th...
Re: Wild West Guns
I was just about to get this until I discovered it takes up 300 blocks
Looks really good though
Re: Earthworm Jim
Only just noticed this is ESRB rated =o
*Gets excited *
Hopefully not much longer before we see it!
Re: The Wii Hard Drive Is Here And Hilariously Fake
First half of the title had me fooled for a second
I've given up waiting, I'll just be surprised if we do get something.
I'm a bit fed up though, I've completed less than 20% of my VC games and not played about 15% of them for more than an hour because I've had to delete them before getting a chance.
Re: My Pokémon Ranch Due This Friday For Europe
Meh, hope they don't release this alone because it's Pokémon.
I'll finally get paid again next week so I was hoping to be able to get Pop or Defend Your Castle with Puzzle League.
Re: Splatterhouse 2
Looking forward to playing this again.
Re: Space Harrier
Can't wait for this, always liked Space Harrier 2 on MD and if this one really is as superior as people say it should be great. =]
Re: Toki Tori For WiiWare Goes To Euro 2008
Awesome website, just got the soundtrack. I feel like playing it again now! =D
Re: Review: My Pokémon Ranch
Hmm, I saw this coming ages ago but I still hoped it'd turn out good. Ah well.
What's the bet Europe will get this alone for the next fortnights release?
Re: Nintendo Working On USB Devices – HDD Possible?
I really hope it is a storage device, then I'd be able to enjoy my VC/WiiWare games a lot more...
Re: WiiWare Launches In Europe
I'm kind of dissapointed we didn't get Pop, that was the main one I was looking at when I found out Defend Your Castle wasn't coming out yet.
Dr Mario makes up for it though, and I've deleted my N64 games to get Toki Tori or Lost Winds...
Edit: What was with that Dr Mario demo? It was up there for free last night but when I looked at 10am this morning it was gone =/
Re: EU VC Releases - 16th May - Third Hanabi Festival Week
Meh... I was hoping for castlevania.
I'm not fussed on shooters.
Re: Defend Your Castle
121 blocks?!
That's definitely a put off for when it does come out here as I'm running out of games I want to delete...
Re: Introducing WiiWare World
@52. Pocketim: Don't give up, just keep practicing like I am. You can only get better, right?
I saw one of your reviews quickly and it wasn't that bad.
Re: Introducing WiiWare World - Reviewers Wanted
I'd love to do this but while I've gotten better with practice I still find it very difficult to write reviews...
Can't wait to see the new site!
Re: Earthworm Jim
I hope we won't end up waiting about half a year, I used to love this!
Can't wait to play it again.
@Cally: I haven't actually played the SNES one but that version was missing the level "Intestinal Distress" so I'm glad it's the MD version we're getting.
Re: Mega Man
"Dang those lucky europeans they get everything"
0_o
Re: WiiWare: Pop Pricing Still Unconfirmed
I'd say 600. Any more could put people off...
Re: Will Sega CD Support Ever Come To The Virtual Console?
Hopefully we'll get Road Avenger one day... I've heard a lot of people calling it rubbish but I loved it to bits until our Sega CD broke.
Re: EU VC Release - 4th April - Yoshi's Cookie
Not too exciting, I'll probably get it though.
Thank god for Brawl and next week, Mario Kart Wii!
Re: EU VC Release(s) - 28th March - Commodore 64 hits Virtual Console
We got a racer, just the wrong one!
I really wish we could just get SMK before MKWii... I probably won't care about it once I have that!
Re: EU VC Release - March 21st - Sega Week - Mega Turrican
I was hoping for Super Mario Kart a bit too much I think...
It just made sense for Nintendo to release it this week, with people being off school and possibly work for Easter and with MKWii out in 3 weeks...
Re: Defend Your Castle Coming to WiiWare
I'm a bit of a fan of Demonic Defence and Storm the House, so no doubt I'll be getting this!
Hopefully this turns out to be good!
Re: EU VC Releases - 22nd February - Street Gangs
Wow, this makes the first week I completely forgot about VC 0_0
Might get Adventure Island sometime, looks good.
Re: Rolling Thunder 2
Got this game yesterday, it's awesome!
Really glad I decided to take the risk and be adventurous for a change =D
Re: Kirby's Avalanche
I think I'll download this now, I'm just desperate for something Kirby, even if it isn't a proper Kirby game =[
Re: EU VC Releases - 25th January - Super Street Fighter II
I don't know why I even bother reading comments anymore, they always consist of 50%+ moaning posts. =/
The VC is obviously going to slow down eventually, some people are just can't accept that..
I'd download this but I've already gone and bought Turbo because I was told it was the best. Ah well.
Re: 1080 Snowboarding
It's alright, but I find it hard to control and the tricks are way to difficult to perform...
I was thinking about giving it another go but other games take priority.
Re: Tetris Attack
One of my favourite Puzzle games ever, this needs to be released ASAP!
So many memories in need of refreshing!
Re: Harvest Moon
Good game but it's hard for me to really enjoy this after playing the PS1, Gameboy Advance and DS games.
If you've never tried a Harvest Moon game before I highly reccomend you giving this a go, it's a truly great series.
Re: Goldeneye NOT Virtual Console Bound?
Damn it.
I'd probably have a 360 by now, but I've heard they break a lot and I'm mega unlucky with consoles. =[
Plus I don't really have the time for any more consoles than I have.
