Outrunner

@bboy: I think with that post you just proved Jonno's point...

In FF4 DS I just beat Rubicante in the Tower of Babil and I don't think I've done much grinding so far either.

Wog will be enough for me. don't need an inferior (and generic) looking copy of it too thanks...

I'm very disappointed. ONM reviewed Secret of Mana in their last issue which led me to believe it was coming this week. A tad miffed over here... Also, yes 50hz thing is crap too. Wish they'd sort that out.

Exactly what I was thinking. The Gottlieb tables look boring. That helps a lot. I'll wait for Williams. Thanks!

@thewiirocks: Hey, should I get the Gottlieb collection or wait til Williams is released here? I like the look of the Williams one.

Also, does anyone know how to get into the bonus round on table 1 in AC Returns after you've beaten it once?

BRILLIANT NEWS! Instant download for me!

Downloaded it today. Have to say I'm impressed. It's just shot to the top of my favourite shooters along with Gradius 3, R-Type 3 and Soldier Blade.
@Jon: The fact that it's tough should add stars to the score! 7 stars I say!

Does anyone know how to activate the bonus table warp a second time? It's driving me nuts!

No matter to me as I'm the only one that plays my Wii most of the time unless mates come over.
Downloaded this last night. It's great so far. The story mode is a bit short though.

Not getting this. It's too expensive and takes up too much memory.

I'd buy this in a heartbeat. As long as there's loads of objectives on each table I'll be happy just with score-chasing. I love the first one on VC.

@Devastator: The Saturn is apparently very hard to emulate because of the dual processors. I think there are other factors too. I would love to have NiGHTS on my Wii though. As well as the Panzer Dragoon games and Shining Force 3.
I wish there were some more Mega drive games from other developers. We're still waiting for Rocket Knight Adventures.

Hi BrazCanMan. Sadly I haven't played it since it's not out in Europe but welcome anyway.

This game is pure class! I think I'm enjoying it even more than Castlevania 4. The music is just brilliant and the level design is spot on. Nice one Konami!

No confirmation on Europe getting it though, am I right?

When are they going to release some non-sega developed md games???

This storage 'solution' is ridiculous... Seriously, I hope they have something else in the works...

I wonder if they'll do this again when the game is released in Europe. IF it's released in Europe...

Am in 2 minds of whether to get this... I love C64 but it looks a bit... meh.

I wants Flimbo's Quest! Grrr!!!...

I just downloaded it. I hate it when you're winning an online match and the other player quits. They should dock them points or something.
Anyway, it does seem to let you twist your block after it's touched down for a bit, but then it locks into place. Not quite infinate spin but still...

Edit: Yeah this version of Tetris is fun. I'm really enjoying it. It was worth the download.

Aw cool! Thanks Mayhem. Yeah I remember getting the one with Rick Dangerous awhile afterwards.
Just looked at your scans there. Yeah the names definately ring a bell. Power Play and Fun Play. That one was red and the Flimbo's Quest one was black.

Brilliant game. I hope it gets the recognition it deserves over there. This reminds me that I haven't completed it though. Must get it back on my channels...

My C64 didn't have a tape deck. I was only wee so didn't know much about it other than that I had 2 carts for it, both with 4 games each. The first one had Fiendish Freddy's Big Top o' Fun, a Soccer game, Flimbo's Quest (my fave), and Klax. The other one which was on a red cart had another Soccer game, Rick Dangerous, a skateboarding game, Stunt Car Racer I think and Dizzy's Fast Food. Oh wait, that's five games... Aw man the memories...

But can you turn it off? When you play online?

When I saw "Flimbo's Quest" mentioned I nearly fell off my chair. Lol. Hope it makes it to VC eventually as that was a childhood favourite of mine. I loved Rick Dangerous too.
Were any of the Dizzy adventure games ever available on C64? I can't remember. I'd love to play one of those.

Really??? Awesome!!! Definately getting this then. Tetris DS had infinite spin and it ruined it for me. Cheers Dazza.

Makes me wish for Picross...

Every game that gets announced makes Wiiware look worse and worse. The only good game so far imo is MM9. This takes the biscuit!

Does it have infintate spin?

A maze game... zzzzzz

I deleted my last comment because after spending a good few hours on this I've actually grown to like it. (The pal version is very slow however...). I still wish we'd gotten the TG-16 version but this will have to do. And being a Space Harrier fan how could I not download this? I just hope Sega pull a Street Fighter and upload other versions...

Is this as good as Shining the Holy Ark?

It was for original Gameboy was it not Jona?

Great wee game. It makes me want Flimbo's Quest even more though...

Alien Soldier is AWESOME! A game packed full of nothing but top-notch boss battles. What's not to love?

No Mana. Me angry...

Does it have infinite spin? I hate that! Hope not...

Wish it was on Wiiware in Europe. I don't see myself buying this at retail... How much more expensive will it be I wonder and just how much extra content are we talking...

YOU LUCKY BUGGERS!!!! Me want secret of Mana. Hope it comes to Europe on Friday.

... another puzzler. zzzzzzzzz

@whalleywhat: I don't think Headdy is a weak effort at all. I think it's a solid, well rounded and wacky little platformer with loads of quirks. There's never a boring moment in it. Each level has something different and the gameplay style even changes around (some of my favourite levels are the shooter stages). Not to mention it has some of the best music in any game on the Mega Drive. Treasure are one of the only developers that actually made the MD sound better than most Snes efforts. The boss themes are particularly good. Oh and speaking of bosses, the ones in this game are awesome!

Yeah people moan about the DS Castlevanias too because they're in an anime style. Me, I love 'em.

I have the X remake on PSP but would LOVE to get the original on VC. I only had Sega consoles back then so I missed out on all this stuff.

Headdy is my favourite Treasure game. I played it all the time when I was wee and it was an instant download on VC. You people who have overlooked it don't know what you're missing.
On the other hand, I totally agree with the 50/60hz thing. It shouldn't be happening in this day and age... sort it out Nintendo!

How is the PC version of WoG anyway Corbie? Did you mean it's higher than a 7 or lower?

I don't care what IP they resurrect. They're all brilliant!!

Oh man! First Sin and Punishment 2 and now this? AWESOME!!!!!!
Imagines playing online Guardian Heroes

How idiotic...
