@MisterMan I am normally not very good at these type of games. The controls would take me some time to get used to and it sounds like it is a tough game? I may give it a shot though.
Done some research. Not sure I like the sound of these control options. Are they easy to use/play? Shame you can't move/aim with one joystick only and fire with a button on the controller other than the shoulder buttons.
@Megal0maniac Thanks for the reply. Not sure I like the sound of those control options. Are they easy to use/play? Shame you can't move/aim with one joystick only.
@paleozoic Okay great news! Thanks for the replies. Think I will give this game a go now. I like platform/adventure type games, with not too much backtracking.
Can you download New Super Luigi U as a stand alone game or do you have to have New Super Mario Bros. U already on your system? If so is it worth it, I have never played it!
Where is Friends of Mineral Town for Europe? It has been out for ages in the US. Come to think of it where is More Friends of Mineral Town? Hope the e-reader Super Mario levels come to Europe soon. Won't hold my breath though!
@Aurelis Europe is still waiting for the other SMA games that are already out in the US. This maybe a long wait, if it comes at all. Fingers crossed it does and not on the NX.
@Aurelis Agreed we need this game in Europe asap along with Friends of Mineral Town and More Friends of Mineral Town. The US have had the better downloads so far this year.
Does anyone else think Metal Slug 3 is worth downloading even if you have the Metal Slug Anthology for the Wii? I am thinking about it as the classic controller cannot be used with the Metal Slug Anthology game but it can be with the Virtual Console version. Hope this post makes sense!! I do like these games though and they are better to play with the classic controller.
@urbanhispanic: Yes i have heard good reports about this game and think i will download this as well as Metal Slug 3. Have you got Legend of the Mystical Ninja then?
Is this game really that good and worth getting over the master system version? Is it worth more than a seven then and why. I have the master system version and just want to play this in 60hz.
@Sean_Aaron: What are the Metal Slug games you have so far and which one is the best? @gojiguy: Thanks for that - i have the Anthology already and Metal Slug 1 and 2 on the VC guess i will get 3 on Thursday then! 900 points is a big outlay that's all. It's either Slug or Legend of the Mystical Ninja for me.

I have emailed NoE to ask them if Europe will get any more Wii VC games released this year or before the new Wii Console is launched. We still have to catch up America for Mega Man 5 and X.
Wii VC is dead in my opinion. Guess we will not see Mega Man X now or Mega Man 5. Poor show NoE. Saving my points for La-Mulana if that ever comes to Europe.
Yet again no Wii VC downloadable games - will we ever see another one for the Wii in Europe? It must have been over two months since the last one. Please can we at least have Mega Man X and Mega Man 5 before the service dies?
Yet again no Wii VC it must have been abandoned, shame i wanted Mega Man X and Mega Man 5. When will La-Mulana be out for the Wii-Ware or has that been forgotten as well?

Re: Out Today: Monday Releases Are a Thing on the Switch eShop - Good Times
How are the controls for ETG? Can you use just one button to fire and use the d-pad or joystick for directions to move/aim?

Re: Review: Olympia Rising (Wii U eShop)
@paleozoic Are there any more patches to come in the UK? I have heard there are still some issues with coin collecting and lava levels. Thanks
Re: Review: Olympia Rising (Wii U eShop)
@paleozoic Hi there! Any update on whether the patch will/has come out in the UK? I am considering getting this game. Thanks for any reply.

Re: Nintendo Download: 4th February (Europe)
Nothing for me this week or so far this year, come on NoE.
Re: Review: Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 (Wii U eShop / GBA)
So this didn't come to the UK the this week. We got SMG and I have this on disc so no deal Nintendo!

This must come to the UK next week? 😃 This would make Monday a good start to a bad week for me!

Re: Nintendo Download: 6th October 2011 (Europe)
Reply from NoE to the lack of Wii VC games in Europe:
Dear Mr Robinson,
Thank you for your email.
There should be VC updates available for the Wii console every week, but there has been a dry spell.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused and hope that this has not spoiled your enjoyment of Nintendo products.
Many Thanks
The Nintendo Team
So that's there answer a typical politicians response we are none the wiser are we?!!
