The only true flaw of this one is its price. There is a serious lack of content in this volume...there are only around 20 mini-games this time around, and they're pretty much hit-or-miss in my opinion. The only redeeming content in this installment is the online multiplayer...and although I didn't get to fully test it out (I rented the game from Blockbuster for a seven day period), I'd assume that the online community is swarming with the game's target audience- pre adolescents who wouldn't offer much of a challenge in terms of competition.
Looks nice! I typically don't go for the spin-off titles of the Super Mario franchise, but this is one that I'll give a run for its money in the near future.
I'm glad the most notorious arcade game of the 1980s has finally made its way to the VC Arcade.
I downloaded it a few weeks ago. Although 800 points is quite an asking price for something that most people are going to buy for nostalgic purposes, I found it to be a fascinating romp. And, I am most certainly thankful for the option to readjust the difficulty. It took me about two nights to finish the game on the easiest difficulty setting, but not after non-stop playing. Hopefully Capcom will decide to release the arcade version of "Ghouls N Ghosts" to VC Arcade as well. And, I'd especially like to see the Commodore 64 version of this game make its way to the VC as well.
This may be yet another one of those Wiiware titles that turns out to be surprisingly good. This isn't something I'd devote my time and money to...but, I'm interested in seeing how this one turns out.
