Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - March 2010

Namo

@15 The same kind of applies to me. The VC is the reason I wanted a Wii in the first place. If Nintendo phased out VC, I wouldn't exactly sell my Wii instantly, but it would definitely happen eventually, especially with the lack of quality WiiWare exclusives (Every good Wiiware game except Cave Story and La Mulana seems to be going Multiplatform, like Explodemon and Super Meat Boy).

Re: Data East Arcade Classics

Although this is an awesome collection (Magical Drop 3 for the win!) one has to wonder why this is released on disc form rather on the virtual console.

Wait a minute... does Samus have a facial mole? Check the screenshot close up of her face.

Haha, awesome.

Re: Cave Story

Namo

Everyone who doesn't get this game has horrible taste in games.

Re: Last Ninja 3

Namo

Whats hilarious is the guys who made this NEVER rereleased it with the bugfix, and hilarity is added again when the idiots said "Hey, lets put the exact same broken version on the Virtual Console! No one will notice!"

Two words:
EPIC.
FAIL.

Re: GlobZ Announces Globulos Party for March

Namo

I'm hoping, if there's no WiFi, that there's single player modes with AI controlled enemies. In my group of friends I'm in the minority that plays all the weird things, so it's a bit tough getting my friends to play these kinds of games with me.

Re: WiiWare Market Grows to Nearly $60M USD in 2009

Namo

Ah, nostalgia. Checking the Wii every monday to see the new releases...

Pfft, I don't even DO that anymore. What's the point? Nearly every week is a disappointment now.

Not in March though. March has some genuinely awesome Wiiware titles coming out soon. And I shall call them squishy and they shall be mine and they shall be my squishies.

There's lots of VC games that could be released, its just, nobody's doing it. Take Hudson for example. They have over 10 bomberman games they could release: The 5 Super Bomberman games, Panic Bomber W, Bomberman B-Daman for the SNES, and Bomberman 64, The Second Attack, and Bomberman Hero for the N64. And where are they at? Nowhere, because they're taking forever to release the reboots for Bonk and Military Madness (not that I'm complaining).

On top of that, most of the Wiiware games at this point are shovelware at best. I can think of a few titles I've had genuine fun with, like World of Goo, Megaman 9, but I can name many more VC games I've enjoyed more, like Sin and Punishment, Toejam and Earl, etc etc et al.

This is pretty much Nintendo not thinking things through and then bitching about it like idiots. "Derp derp we aren't selling enough VC games, herp derp, wonder why."

Re: Dimps Revealed As Sonic 4 Developer

Namo

Finally, Sega gets smart. Nearly every Sonic Team game that doesn't involve Sonic is mediocre at best, and every Sonic Team game that DOES involve Sonic after Sonic Heroes were just terrible.

Re: Super Meat Boy Coming to Xbox Live Arcade

Namo

For some reason, whenever a game is multiplatform, developers just feel the need to HAVE to make the wii version worse. That's how it always is. I mean, yeah, the Wii's graphics are suck compared to the other two, but that's no goddamn excuse to remove features. No goddamn excuse.

Re: DS2 Rumour Is Rumour No More

Namo

Careful, if it functions TOO much like the iphone, we're screwed. Why?

There'll be a new one every week.
Drop it and you need a new one.
Get it wet and you need a new one.

Finger grease will seep in through the screen and kill the internal machinery (Yes, that happens.)
