[Supermarioman], "I do hope you hve to suffer a 2 weeks without Mega Man 9 because, you already have two great games we don't have: Maboshi and Bomberman, not to mention you had the mega mans before us, I want to see how bad karma is to you"
Sarcasm I hope? lol. I'll send you Bomberman and Maboshi if I could have retail releases (and prices) like you do. But heck, the world isn't fair, just take things as they come. I for once don't care about Helix, Megaman, Strongbad or that NoE is 11 games behind, I just want Frat Party!!!
Went to the PEGI link in the news and saw some other WW titles already rated like Critter Round-Up, Helix, Home Sweet Home, SBCG4AP Homestar Ruiner, Midnight Bowling and Plättchen Twist 'n' Paint. But only Critter Round-Up, Defend Your Castle, Helix and Midnight Bowling have all the countries rated.
Already guessed this on Monday before the leaks began pooping up at the US Magnetica Twist News. Going to LOL hard if we only get this WiiWare title, hahaha
NOA has to let NOE catch up, that's why you have single releases. Let us see how many we get this Friday, it will be funny, uuuhhhmmm, OH! I can see it, it's My Pokemon Farm, har har har.
We already knew this. Just read the comments from the old news; which had an "alarming title" for the content it had (guess we are in need for comments?)
Just did a little filtering on the Out Now list for VC, both Europe and US have the same amount of games available (233 with 27 titles exclusive between them).
I'm sure it means it will be released at a later date, like DYC or Pop here in Europe. No need to worries, just buy the steam one and when it gets released on WiiWare buy it again
@Peznaze: Forgot about the one title per publisher, but that kinda makes it worse, since publishers only have two chances to sell said title during a month, having a whole bunch out then. Ohhh, I see it now, they are releasing so few, so every developer has their time to shine, HA! Thanks Peznaza. So that is why after 1 month since the launch of WW they have only added 3 games to the service. The 100 developing WW titles are going to last them years
This is 2 WW less than I was expecting. They need to start picking up, because they lagging behind 7 games.
@Peznaza: It's not simultaneous releases, it would have been if My Pokemon Ranch was also released! Remember, like you say, it's a two week window, and the releases in those two week from the US should be released here also to be simultaneous.
Flash drives are expensive if you compare it via the size/price ratio. It's the future (the wii is the only current gen console that has a flash drive), they are more reliable than a traditional hard drive and consumes less energy. That is why flash drives are beginning to appear in laptops to extend the battery life (expensive laptops). They are also supposed to have higher read times, etc, but it seems they haven't improved performance that much.
I also have plenty of flash drives, but I still would prefer an SD solution since it is what the Wii was going for. SD inserted inside the Wii or USB sticking out the back?
Having to wait 2 weeks for VC and WW releases is going to be hard. 5 games is good for an extension of two weeks (3 one week and 2 the other). For WW 4 is also expected (2 between each week).
So from now on, I would expect VC week to have 6 games released and 4 on WW week. Then it would be equivalent in quantity to what weekly releases should be like for both VC and WW at the same time.
That is quantity, but quality is subjective. This week I like the C64 games
I would like "Elven Chronicles: WW Edition" to be their next project, it was a great RPG game for mobile. It even had DLC!!! Would be perfect fit for WW.
I fear the gameplay issues won't be ironed out completely when the game comes out. This is because the mobile version of the game had horrible controls. Hope to be proved wrong.
Is this true then? I thought it was a rumour! I only listen to what Iwata said (not this nobody), and wait for the day when the SD expansion slot will truly be a SD expansion slot in a future firmware update
@Quimby: Otaku is a Japanese term used to refer to people with obsessive interests, particularly in anime and manga.
Why not use the SD as an expanded memory slot like many other devices do already like mobile phones? I prefer having all my memory stuck inside the Wii than a usb drive sticking out the back

Re: Wii Chess Comes to WiiWare in Japan
Funny thing is, when we first heard of Wii Chess we all thought it was WiiWare.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Mega Man 9 and Plättchen
Lucky Americans
Re: Mega Man 9 Confirmed For US Release On Monday!
Congrats America for MM9, remember to buy Plättchen auch xD
Re: Plättchen: Twist 'n' Paint Going Up Against Mega Man 9
^ NoA bends the rules for certain publishers (themselves and Gameloft). They can do the same for Hudson.
Re: Plättchen: Twist 'n' Paint Going Up Against Mega Man 9
Another two WiiWare next Monday? We need six WiiWare releases next Friday to catch up!
Look at the bright side $15 is much more affordable than 15€

Re: My Pokémon Ranch Due This Friday For Europe
Isn't one game good enough Starwolf?

... IT'S NOT FUNNY!

Re: US VC Release - 30th June - Fatal Fury 2
Just did a little filtering on the Out Now list for VC, both Europe and US have the same amount of games available (233 with 27 titles exclusive between them).
@PSWii60Gamer: Europe gets 5 games per two weeks.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Magnetica Twist
Didn't NOA say that they would only let one title per publisher a month? Two Nintendo titles this month for America.
Have fun with it, it is a good game.
Re: Hudson's Adventure Island Could Be Revived On WiiWare
More retro's like Megaman? Sweeet. Can't wait for Tetris Paaarty.
Re: No WiiWare Games For Europe This Friday
Nothing to see here, only SPAIN is going to WIN the Euro 2008!
Re: Eternity's Child - No Plans For A North American Release
^Hi Luc!
I'm sure it means it will be released at a later date, like DYC or Pop here in Europe. No need to worries, just buy the steam one and when it gets released on WiiWare buy it again
Re: World Of Goo Will Not Be Released On WiiWare In Europe!
@ACK!: And now Europeans have to pay for the funding. No extras could be worth 20-40€
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Gyrostarr
Have fun America!
Re: Gyrostarr Hits WiiWare This Monday!
Here is to hoping we get this in 4 weeks time xD
Congrats America, you finally have the WW you wanted! (if they release it)

Re: Fischer Completes Spectacular U-Turn On Wii Storage
SD slot, just seems like an expansion slot to me, that's what I thought it was when I first saw the Wii. Just turn it into that Ninty!
Re: Get Even With Space Invaders On WiiWare
I remember this game. Didn't consider it back then, but now being available for WiiWare does make it more accessible, might get it.
Re: 1080 Snowboarding Developer Working on WiiWare Project
@Peznaze: Think they are trying to tell you they won't be doing a snowboarding game
Re: We Move: Pain Vs Pleasure - New Video And Information
This has to be a joke trailer to stir up controversy?
Re: Fischer Completes Spectacular U-Turn On Wii Storage
Okey, so the joke turn-a-round and got him back.
Interesting, no plan for hard drive (guess that would include the usb drive). So of the solutions left, I would like the SD or streaming channels.

Re: USA WiiWare Update: My Pokemon Ranch
No need to moan. It's 1 WW + 2 VC. That's 2 VC more than us on Friday.
Still you have over 13 different WW games in the catalogue to download.
Re: Nintendo Working On USB Devices – HDD Possible?
Why not use the SD as an expanded memory slot like many other devices do already like mobile phones? I prefer having all my memory stuck inside the Wii than a usb drive sticking out the back
