Lol @ 'Dud of the Year'.
I should really download MaBoShi some time; it's got much better acclaim than I though it had.

Quite a good week, I hope Tiki Towers is received well as it looks interesting.

Really great review Wiiloveit.

I'm enjoying Rock 'n' Ball despite its few issues, and I can't wait to download World of Goo soon.

Fantastic update! Just downloaded Niki - Rock 'n' Ball and I'll get World of Goo later this weekend.

Amazing news, can't wait to download it. Thank God I bought a wii points card the other day.

Looking forward to this one actually, looks pretty fun.

Hopefully it won't turn out to be another Plattchen scenario...

Fantastic week. Strong Bad and PCP don't interest me, but I really must try out one of the Art Style games soon. I just need to decide which looks/sounds best...

Very good review. Not interested in this if/when we do get it though, there's only so much Sudoku I can play before I get bored.

@coire: Much appreciated, thanks.

@Mr. Cheez: Yeah, I'm a new addition to the reviewing team, so I will be reviewing more games.

It really depends on what you're looking for, as both games have their merits, but personally I prefer Midnight Pool over CueSports.

@WiiMan192: Thanks!

@Objection_Blaster: In my opinion, yes, but only very slightly. Both games have something different to offer.

@gameking23: The European download requires 219 blocks.

@Corbie: Thanks a lot, I enjoyed reviewing it!

@Wiiloveit: Thank you too. And yeah, as far as I know!

@worrybomb: Much appreciated, thanks.

Fantastic week I must say; 4 games is a real treat!

A sincere congratulations VCR! I remember back when the site and forums just launched, doesn't seem that long ago though.

Well done though guys, for both this site and VCF.

The Japanese should enjoy LostWinds, good for them that they're finally getting it soon.

I enjoyed it thoroughly and although it is short the gameplay is what's really important. Roll on the sequel!

Did Canada get these games today?

This is the reason I'm so disappointed that we Europeans have to wait 'til Spring and we have to pay full retail price for extra content that I don't even want.

One of the few WiiWare games (that I haven't already downloaded) I actually want and we aren't even getting it...

Great week for North America, can't wait 'til we get SoM.

Poor week, but I'll download Mega Man 9 ASAP since I haven't done so yet.

Fantastic week, can't wait to download MM9 when I have points.

Great week for you guys, it's great that you finally got Vectorman too.

Great week, I've been waiting for DoReMi for ages ;D

Fantastic that we're getting DoReMi finally, I've wanted it for ages! ;D

Amazing! Can't wait to download it ;D

Great week, Star Parodier is a fantastic shooter and I recommend it even to those who aren't fond of the genre; the music and colourful graphics are really a joy to behold Not that difficult 'til the final few levels either - a great place to start for newcomers to the genre!

@ Tides: Yeah, pretty much. I'm sure it's an upgrade from the flash game but if bought it I'd feel that I'd regret spending even as small amount as 500 points on something that I could play online for free. Using a cursor worked fine in the flash game too.

Not a bad week by any means though.

Ok week I suppose, could be better though.

I look forward to the Wild West Guns review, even though I don't think I'm too interested in it. I definitely won't be getting DYC though for obvious enough reasons.

Couldn't care less that MM9's not exclusive, and if anyone else does I don't really understand why... I'll just get the cheapest version now

Cool, downloading the soundtrack right now.

Ireland didn't qualify either

Co-op in EC could work really well; I hope this plays as good as it looks, and 500 points is a real steal.

I really don't mind that we didn't get any WiiWare games this week, especially with the large no. of VC games we got.

Brilliant news, hopefully EarthBound will be next and we don't have to wait too long for both.

Brilliant week I must say, now lets keep this consistent

@koresh: Thanks a lot for the info, I'll definitely download it soon .

Maybe the reason that Eternity's Child and many other lesser-known developers who submitted games were accepted because they were some of the first to apply, while this anonymous poster may be applying with hundreds of other unheard-of developers.

Nintendo have announced that there is over 100 games in development; maybe they're got plenty of n00b developers as it is and at this point they are looking for developers that stand out and with a bit more... experience?

Probably an awful theory, but I tried

So this game is suitable for someone who's totally new to shmups? Nothing too difficult? Are there difficulties to choose from?

I'm surprised that TV Show King is at #4, but generally the rest of the list is as expected.

LostWinds should be a tad higher though...

How is the easiest difficulty in this game? I'm pretty new to the SHMUP genre and I want to try to find the easiest possible one to start with as I know the genre is notoriously difficult.

Great news for the US; it's my favourite WiiWare game.

Nice week for you guys; I know a lot of you wanted Dr. Mario.

I really want this game in the EU... I was convinced we were getting it in the latest Hanabi.

Great review Drake, I think I'll get this as my next WiiWare games. How about you give Two Tribes a ring to see if they can gift it to me?

This or Dr. Mario? (haven't played the originals of either).

@Simbabbad: No it's not...

Lower score than I expected too, and since Toki Tori is 9 I think I'll get that for now.

Great launch, just downloaded LostWinds and either Dr. Mario or Toki Tori later

We are getting Dr. Mario with our launch on Tuesday.

I'd love to play the likes of FF III & IV, Chrono Trigger and Super Mario RPG, but somehow I still don't see some of them being released.

Nice review Corbie, very informative. You've convinced me to consider downloading it, that's for sure

Didn't know you were a reviewer, Pegasus

Nice review too.

Definitely getting this one, can't wait for it.

Will I have to register on the new WiiWare forum or will my VC-Forum membership be carried over?
