I have waited patiently up until this point. I even waited patiently after the May delay. Don't tell me how to live my life. Every week Wiiware games of questionable quality are released and you guys defend them to no end. Why? Why defend a these obvious cash-ins? Wiiware has looked simply terrible for a while now. God forbid I ask for games worth spending points on.
Good update? Did you guys lower your standards even further overnight? A Robot game that won't get over a 5, a 500 piece of porn that you can find free on the internet, and the arcade version of a game already on the service. My god. Where the hell is Cave Story? I'm getting absolutely fed up with waitng for that game. It shouldn't take 14 months to make a DD game.
WTF I called Ant Nation shovelware? When? Where? I want to play the damn game but I want a review first to see if I want to spend 700 points on it. Stop accusing.
SSB is hardly anything to gloat about when Melee and Brawl are 100 times better. SSB is probably the most horrendously aged game of all time, and soon many of you who insist on dropping $10 on something that shouldn't even have been re-released will find this out.
People who thought this ws going to be 500 points need to start using their head: A clock = 200 points, A match 3 puzzler = 500 points, A game that actually has an ending = 800 points
Mighty Flip Champs?! Swords and Soldiers? Pop? Meh. I might get Adventure Island though. And why does everyone want SSB? That game has aged horrendously. I wouldn't even think about playing it today, much less spend1000 points on it.
I've seen people all around the internet make excuses for why they didn't buy it, only a few were particulary good. It's one of the best arcade racers I've ever played, but people would rather complain about not getting a new Zelda game or that this game looks like kiddy shovelware despite not even playing it. The Wii audience gets more laughable after every game release.
Thats fine with me. I'm getting Tiger WM+ Bundle Day 1 (WM+ + Disk Golf + Robust Online = GOTY Contender) and this game is shaping up to be great. Can't wait.
5/5 no doubt. To any fellow European gamers who feel like 900 points is too much, I would have easily spent 1500 points on this game, and I played this thing like gangbusters when I was a kid back in 1996.
"If you're one of those people who, for some reason, didn't care that great games like Ys Book I & II, Samurai Shodown II and Mega Man came out recently..."
Ok two of those games are in compilations that have been released in the past 4 years. It is understandable why people don't want to spend more money on these games, but SMRPG hasn't been re-released since it launched in 1996. Assuming that people don't care about great games like Mega Man and Samurai Shodown II is foolish.
Europe gets shafted all the time when it comes to game releases. It's good to see them get something before North America. With that being said, this game better be coming Monday.

No way! I don't believe it.
Re: Review: NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits (WiiWare)
Is this really worth my $10, European gaming pals?
Re: Nintendo Download: Mechas, Sexy Poker, Football and Art (US)
Once again, people defending this update are just pathetic. So glad the Xbox Live Arcade update isn't an embarrasment every week.
Re: Nintendo Download: Mechas, Sexy Poker, Football and Art (US)
@Madara: These are VC games. They have already been made. Why would it take longer to get better games on the service?

Re: Nintendo Rep: Virtual Console Being Toned Down
If this is true, Nintendo continues to drift off into obscurity in my mind. Will it only take a gen to completely lose core gamers? Looks like it.
Re: Why Capcom Chose To Do Another RE: Chronicles Game
Unfinished business? More like unfinished desires to continue to piss off core gamers.

Re: Nintendo Download: Art, Cards and Crystals Have Gamers Seeing Spots (US)
They've killed VC without even relesing Yoshi's Island. Nintendo is pretty dead to me this year.

Nice

Re: Review: Incoming! (WiiWare)
You guys should review non-blantant shovelware next. Maybe Ant Nation perhaps?
Re: Take on Doc Louis in a Club Nintendo Exclusive Punch-Out!! Game
So for getting gold I only get a stupid calendar? Gee, thanks Nintendo. You might as well just give me $8 so I can buy my yearly Maxim calendar.

Re: Nintendo Download: Bits, Tanks, Ants, Commandos, Pulses and Brains (US)
They might finally realize it when they waste $10 on it. Anyway, Pulsman and Ant Nation look like instant-buys.
Re: Nintendo Download: Bits, Tanks, Ants, Commandos, Pulses and Brains (US)
I still laugh at people who want SSB. It has aged horrendously people. Get over it and play Brawl of Melee.
Re: Review: Pulseman (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)
Sorry fellow NA gamers, NA's VC doesn't get good games anymore.

Re: Shia LaBeouf Disses the Wii
Big words coming from some actor I've never even heard of.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Available on VC This Friday

Re: Sony And Microsoft Suffering From Wii-nis Envy?
What was great about Sony's unveiling of the motion control was being able to figure out who were Sony Fanboys. Truly the industry photocopiers.
Re: Mighty Flip Champs Coming June 1st
People who thought this ws going to be 500 points need to start using their head:
A clock = 200 points, A match 3 puzzler = 500 points, A game that actually has an ending = 800 points
Re: High Voltage Unveils Gladiator A.D.
Meh not a fan of fighting games.

Re: Nintendo Download: Soccer, Pirates and Galaxies (US)
LOL thanks for the weekly laugh Nintendo.
Re: Nintendo Download: Clocks, Calculators, Penguins and Towers (US)
lol. Just lol. I hate NOA more and more with each passing day.
Re: Nintendo Download: DSiWare, Equilibrio & Uncharted Waters (US)
Is Uncharted worth a download?
Re: Nintendo 'Not So Green' Based on Environmental Report
It's like Greenpeace and PETA take turns in a game to see which group can be the biggest joke.
Re: USA VC Update: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (Master System)
Oh boy another exciting Monday. PASS.
Re: Digital Leisure Announces Sudoku Challenge!
100,000 puzzles? Holy crap. 500 points? Holy crap.
Re: EU VC Releases: Earthworm Jim and Shining Force II
Europe gets Earthworm Jim and North America will probably get shovelware. NoA is just that bad.
Re: Mega Man 9
This is the best game for Wiiware and one of the top 10 games for Wii.
Re: USA VC Release: Mega Man 2
I have this on the Megaman Anniversary Collection for Gamecube, but great for you guys that don't have it.
Re: Gradius
There is a new Gradius game coming out for Wiiware. Nevertheless, I like this game.
Re: Ys Book I & II
Wow is this game really that good and worth 800 points?
Re: EU WiiWare Update: Critter Round-Up & MaBoShi
@RGVEDA: Don't worry you guys aren't missing anything. Except maybe Gyrostarr.
Re: USA VC Releases: Super Mario RPG and Clu Clu Land
I've beaten both many times and I just like SMRPG more. SMRPG > Paper Mario > Mario and Luigi in my opinion.
Re: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
5/5 no doubt. To any fellow European gamers who feel like 900 points is too much, I would have easily spent 1500 points on this game, and I played this thing like gangbusters when I was a kid back in 1996.

Re: Kirby's Dream Course
Me and my brother played this game like gangbusters way back in our childhood. Don't d/l for single player.
