Didn't like Gyrostarr, Animales doesn't interest me, and V.I.P. Blackjack doesn't count as a game. Luckily I am very interested in The Conduit, though.
I accidentally downloaded this and I actually like the music quite a bit! Sounds very 16 bit like Riverman Jacob said and I have to say though, that even though arcade mode is over quickly, the game itself can be quite fun. The only thing I dislike is that the Quakes are a little on the cheap side. Good overall though and very impressive that the game is only 89 blocks and made by 2(or is it 3?) people!
@x.SuperMario.x Still bitter about Bplus I see. And for good reason too. The game is only 800 points however, so it isn't so much a jump off the deep end like Plattchen's 1000-1500 price tag.
@Badknux I have a DS Lite that I got when they first came out and let's just say that the little guy has been through some bad scrapes and the thing still works amazingly well! If there is one thing besides making great games that Nintendo is known for, it is that their consoles, handhelds especially, are durable little suckers. Game Boy anyone?
Gradius 2 looks good but I have enough shmups right now so I might actually go with MadStone, because of its very cool logo and I've heard multiplayer is quite fun.
@Riverman Jacob Thanks for joining the site and I hope your game does well!
One thing I do like about most of these devs for WiiWare games, is that they seem very down to earth and don't seem robotic or repeating the same information. For that I respect them.
"A mere 1000 points." Umm...a thousand points really isn't that cheap for a downloadable game, but that does all depend on how fun the game turns out.
"You never need to worry about screwing up." That worries me, because if the game is too easy I might not want to play the game again because of lack of challenge.
We still have a bit to wait yet so I will see how the game turns out. Hopefully the physics engine is fun to mess with!
@KnucklesSonic8 Yep, same here. Gonna stick with my prediction of 1000 points however. @x.SuperMario.X Eww. Good thing no goo is near me right now, otherwise I would have to build bridges with it!
@Mr. Cheez You shall get absolutely nothing but your own pat on the back! Wow! btw it is beastMAN, so since you did that you now get a poison cupcake. Enjoy!
Meh, moving on with my life. I really never liked these games too much. I'd much rather have Majora's Mask or Battletanx. Also anyone gets a present if they know about the Battletanx series!
hopefully Megaman 9 stays up there for a loooooong time! I am very, very, very, VERY glad that spogs is gone now. Maybe the success of Megaman 9 will generate some very good retro games.
@ Jeph Yeah, it'd be pretty hard to screw it up because mostly there is no plot, the graphics are simple and such things as clipping and sprite limitations are ignored for the most part, and the music already sounds awesome. But if it were me as a developer, I'd start making some 16 and 32-bit games already.
This list sickens me. Come on why is poor, poor, poor Toki Tori failing! I just want to cry when I see pong toss(It doesn't deserve capital letters.) so high up. ;_;
Why can't Nintendo just say like "So and so games are to be released this week and next week it will be these games." Why do they have to be so secretive about everything? And if a game is delayed for whatever reason, can't they just say it will be and explain why? Why is that so difficult!?

Re: Marvelous Bringing Discipline To WiiWare
Any radical game on WiiWare is welcome IMO.
Re: OFLC Update: Mega Man 3
Hopefully we get this and the X series, and possibly the Wily Wars as I haven't played that one ever. That is probably wishing too much though.
Re: Treasure: Buy Dynamite Headdy, You Fools
I have S&P and love it. I am very glad that S&P 2 is coming out. That is good enough for me.

Re: MadStone Coming To WiiWare On Monday
I still have 900 points left so I could buy this. It depends on what is released for the VC though.
Re: MadStone Coming To WiiWare On Monday
another puzzler...could be good though.
EDIT: Yay first, first post ever for me!

@x.SuperMario.x
You're just a natural poet maybe!
Re: More Informaton On Boingz From RealNetworks
Sounds like an ugly Toki Tori. Also I already hate the name. But who am I to judge.
Re: Why You Should Be Excited About Cave Story
This game looks awesome. This is also the first time I've heard of it. I will most likely buy it.

Re: BPM Racing Gets the Green Light For WiiWare
Hopefully it does end up like audiosurf, but keep the ability to add your own songs.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bomberman Blast And Art Style: ORBIENT
@Samus 2008
What are you supposed to do in it? It looks somewhat interesting, but I will wait for the review for now.
Re: Mega Man 9 T-Shirts Now On Sale
@RadioShadow
They do have that. And it is cheaper($18.00)!
Re: World Of Goo Submitted To Nintendo For Approval
I'll stand by my 1000 points in the bet, but 1200 would be fine too...
Re: EU WiiWare Update: Mega Man 9, Strong Bad Ep 2 and Helix
Happy gaming Europe! Enjoy your Mega Man 9 and have a brilliant time while I go to sleep!

Re: World Of Goo Submitted To Nintendo For Approval
I actually do want this game. I betting 1000 points. Anyone want to make a guess?
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (24th Sept)
hopefully Megaman 9 stays up there for a loooooong time! I am very, very, very, VERY glad that spogs is gone now. Maybe the success of Megaman 9 will generate some very good retro games.
Re: Mega Man 9 Confirmed For US Release On Monday!
@worrybomb
Well 6 didn't suck IMO. I think 5 was the worst of the NES ones.
Re: Mega Man 9 Confirmed For US Release On Monday!

Re: More Info About Mega Man 9 Bosses
So that's Splash Woman then? Meh. But I'm seriously digging Galaxy Man's design right now.
Re: More Info About Mega Man 9 Bosses
@Tides of Chaos
It is 8-bit so the detail is not quite as good but he sorta looks like Gutsman.
Re: Luc Bernard Quits Videogame Development
@ Bigby
Now THAT is constructive criticism! Good show! Here have a cookie.
Re: USA VC Releases: Star Parodier and Break In
I only want Mega Man 1+2 and EarthBound, so I might be waiting awhile.
Oh yeah and Super Mario RPG. That'd be great to have as I have never played it.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in America (6th August)

Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in America (30th July)
Hopefully more people buy Toki Tori as it is an awesome game!
