This is one of the best VC weeks we've had in a while! Blaster Master is a must-have, but I'll wait until I download/beat Earthworm Jim 1 before getting the second. And Bejeweled Twist would be a must-have as well, if I didn't already have it on Steam. Heh.
"There are still people who haven't finished Mega Man 9?"
Uhh, surely yeah. You know how freakin' hard that game is?
I'd much rather see a Mega Man X9, but this is still great news! Glad to see that there's finally gonna be an easy mode, and Capcom must really be getting desperate for new "Men" with Sheep Man! XD It'd be nice to see another female robot master as well.
Now I just hope Capcom doesn't make us pay for multiple difficulties like last time...
I remember Game Informer panning this game once in one of their retro reviews. Never looked very fun to me anyway. I guess I'll just go get Streets of Rage or Final Fight on a collection.
Normally I would just say "I'll just wait and use Action Replay", but this looks like something I can;t miss! Plus it gives me an excuse to pick up Soul Bubbles...
Wasn't it a little pointless to have Corbie write a separate review for every game instead of just combining them into one? I mean they're all basically the same game, so I don't see why they couldn't all be combined, and have a paragraph describing each one.
Personally, I won't be getting any of these. Looks like just another DSi scam. The original cart is what, $10 now?
The VC side is weak, but we really struck gold on Wiiware this week! I'm getting Frogger and Excitebike, and maybe Dragon Master if it gets a decent review.

Looks like SPOGS has a friend...
Re: New Super Mario Bros. Wii Twenty Years In The Making
I didn''t think there existed anything that could make SMB3 better, but there it is!
Re: Review: Blaster Master (Virtual Console / NES)
@Bass X0. Apparently, not good.
Re: Review: ChÅtetsu Brikin'ger (Virtual Console / Neo Geo)
Never heard of this one, but it sure looks nice.
Will there be any other JP VC reviews?

Re: Review: Alex Kidd in Shinobi World (Virtual Console / Master System)
@Sabrewing. HEY! No dissing the 'Coot! He was worth something at one time!
Re: Review: Alex Kidd in Shinobi World (Virtual Console / Master System)
@Bro2Dragons. The "best" one would be Alex Kidd in Miracle World, but even that one's not very good.
Re: Nintendo Download: 15-16 December 2009 (Japan)
Ugh, Zaxxon. I can't stand that game. They can keep that one.
Re: Review: Star Wars: Rogue Squadron (Nintendo 64)
I've played Rogue Squadron II on the Gamecube and wasn't too fond of it...

Re: Review: Happy Holidays: Christmas (WiiWare)
I totally didn't expect that score at all.
Re: Nintendo Download: Rayman, Notebooks, Stress Busting and Ninjas! (US)
"seems like some people here need to get lives, or get off their whiney butts and scour used shops."
What he said.
It's OK guys, you only have to be outside for a few seconds to get from the car to the store.
Re: Virtual Console Blaster Master To Spearhead Sunsoft Revival
Little late on the draw there, but it's still good news and I'm really looking forward to it. I loves that Blaster Master!
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (DS)
I was disappointed in Phantom Hourglass, but that won't stop my Zelda fanboyism from making me buy this game.
Re: Nintendo Download: Rayman, Notebooks, Stress Busting and Ninjas! (US)
@Ganondwarf. It's a remake of the original Rayman game.
It's a shame. I was expecting it to be an all-new Rayman platformer after 6 years. I am disappoint...
Good to see the original Shinobi though, and a release of Street Fighter that's not Street Fighter II.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1-2 December 2009 (Japan)
That Rompers game remind me a bit of Chip's Challenge. Not sure why.
Re: Ball Fighter Coming to DSiWare on Monday
Who doesn't want to fight some balls?
Re: Review: The Combatribes (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
I remember Game Informer panning this game once in one of their retro reviews. Never looked very fun to me anyway. I guess I'll just go get Streets of Rage or Final Fight on a collection.
Re: Review: Earthworm Jim 2 (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)
@JayArr. What about Worms?
Re: Review: Castle of Shikigami III (Wii)
I think I'll get this one. It looks like a good place to start for bullet hell shooters.
Re: Yet Another Sonic Collection Inbound - This Time For DS
A no go for me. I have the Mega Collection already, and I have Sonic Advance for all my portable Sonic needs.
Re: Review: Copter Crisis (WiiWare)
This score is too generous...
Also, can somebody tell DL to start using a graphics engine that's better than Windows '98?
Re: Review: Christmas Clix (WiiWare)
Holy crap! JV games made a decent game!? It really is Christmas...
Re: Nintendo Download: Monkey Island, Zoos, 'Copters, Face Stealing and Puzzles! (US)
Aww hell, why don't they just go ahead and call it Cave Story Forever while they're at it!?
Re: Nintendo Download: Karts, Blobs, Bits, Shops, Tournaments, PooYoos, Castles, Notebooks and More Plankton (US)
Ooooh, me likey!
Re: Super Mario Kart Hits Virtual Console on Monday
It took them long enough! And now people will finally stop complaining about Smash Bros.! Hallelujah!
Re: Guides: Everything You Need To Know About Importing a Wii
Screw the Wii! I'm importing that Brazil chick!
Re: Copter Crisis Gets Release Dates
I can't wait [/sarcasm]
Re: Rare Pokémon Found at US Toys 'R' Us Stores
Normally I would just say "I'll just wait and use Action Replay", but this looks like something I can;t miss! Plus it gives me an excuse to pick up Soul Bubbles...
Re: Feature: FC Mobile II Console Review
Pure awesomeness. Too bad I don't have any NES cartridges to pop into the thing.
Re: Review: Street Fighter II': Champion Edition (Virtual Console / TurboGrafx-16)
Now that we have 5 iterations of Street Fighter II, can we PLEEEASE have the Alpha games now, Capcom? Or something, anything else!?!?
Re: Wii Music Plus Possible?
Anyone hear that? That was the sound of millions of fanboys crying foul.
Re: We Pray - Coming To A Console Near You?
I just saw the video. This looks like something only the Onion would cook up.
Re: Nintendo Download: Pokémon, Whips, Fighters, Bowling Balls, Robots, Intersections and Demos (US)
F**k yeah demoes! Once I'm able to get my Wii online, I'm downloading the ones for MLaaDL and Bit. Trip!
The games themselves are disappointing (ANOTHER version of SFII? Seriously?).
Re: Christmas Clix Coming to WiiWare
Sorry Chicken. It's not too late to quit, you know.
Re: Review: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Reflex (Wii)
This review is quite a surprise! Still not going near it though.
Re: Review: Ninja Gaiden (Virtual Console / Virtual Console Arcade)
I'll wait and play it on Ninja Gaiden Black for Xbox.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (11th Nov)
Excitebike is at #1. This should surprise no one...
Re: Review: Frogger Returns (WiiWare)
Eh, good enough for me. I love Frogger!

Re: Crystal Mario Surfaces Down Under
DAMN AUSSIES! * shakes fist *
Re: Review: The Rub Rabbits! (DS)
lol @ the Right Said Fred reference!
Re: Nintendo Download: Bikes, Frogs, Dragons, Bombs, Plankton and Cybernoids (US)
The VC side is weak, but we really struck gold on Wiiware this week! I'm getting Frogger and Excitebike, and maybe Dragon Master if it gets a decent review.
Re: Review: Carnival King (WiiWare)
I like shooting things, so I'll have to put this one on my wishlist.
Re: Review: Chibi-Robo (GameCube)
I always thought this game looked stupid, but maybe I'll give it a shot now.
Re: Mario Bricks Himself
I wish I had the skills and patience to make something like that. All my original Lego creations were lame.
Re: Old Cart on the Block Has the Right Stuff
Let's just thank the stars that this game was never released, and laugh at the guy who wasted $600 on this. XD
Re: Feature: Retro Duo Console Review
I never had a SNES or a NES, so maybe I should consider getting this...
