That's perfectly understandable. I've never bought world of goo, and probably never will, and it seems everyone thinks that game is the best thing since sliced bread.
Well, I did buy the game, and while I've only been online once, I found an opponent in less than 10 seconds. Also, the puzzles in this game are very fun. Some seem like they are impossible and then you feel stupid when you realize how easy it actually is.
@ wiiloveit I know that, but maybe he was basing what he said on just the reviews from here. B plus's first game was given a 3/10 and their second was given an 8/10. Aksys's games have been given bad reviews, so he's hoping this will get a good one like niki did.
One cool thing about it is you earn points when you do tricks which you can use to buy new boards, characters and cheats which range from being invisible all the time to always having your SBK meter full which lets you do tricks worth a lot more points. Not having online sucks, which is why I don't play it much as I don't like the single player.
You have to have really good balance to use the balance board. As some people have said, it makes their race time about 2-3 times as long. If you're good with the balance board it will be a fun experience, but if you aren't very good with balance like me, then you probably won't like it.
@ KnucklesSonic8 How much did you get for NiGHTS, cause I just bought it brand new for $9.99 from futureshop.
Also, I own SBK DS but have never tried any of the others in the series. The story mode is quite fun, but I find it way too hard which is why I have not played it in a few months before today. You can also just race against AI in 8 levels from all around the world. There's no online, but does have local multiplayer which is fun, but I'm pretty sure each person needs to have the game to play. It's a decent game which is quite similar to snowboard riot and if you like SR than you'll probably like SBK DS.
I'm pretty sure what he is trying to say is that some people may not like using the pointer to shoot and would rather use an analog stick like that on the gamecube controller or the classic controller.
@ AlexSays "So even if you take away 200 for game saves which is a stretch" Not trying to stir anything up, but two games I have (We Ski: 81 blocks, and SSBB: 128 blocks) equal more than 200 blocks.
"It's amazing how I can have thirty-one games and several channels yet not experience the same "problem" some of you are." That's weird, because I have all the nintendo channels released in North America, 3 VC games, and 3 wiiware games and I only have 170 points left.

So does that thing measure how many button presses you can do with one finger or two?
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Gradius Rebirth
Why is this game 174 blocks? Seems a bit steep.

Re: New Golf Game Coming To Japanese WiiWare Next Week
Might be, might not be. Never tried any of the games, so I don't know my actual opinion of the series.
Re: New Golf Game Coming To Japanese WiiWare Next Week
Of course!

Re: New Golf Game Coming To Japanese WiiWare Next Week
Kinda hoping it's a game we know little about, cause I've spent too much on wii points this past month according to my parents. (Only $60)

What difficulty level are you on? I'm on easy and I'm having trouble.
Re: Harvest Moon Coming To WiiWare
I'll probably get it if it's 800 points.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
There's no way to jump in this game, is there?
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
Already in third in the top 20 in canada. It's taken out my aquarium.

@ Sean Aaron
I would have thought that even though you had a japanese wii, it would access the shop from the region that you live in.
Re: Family & Friends Party
Didn't enjoy Onslaught?

@Nobarai
Sounds like my mondays.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
It's so much fun. I've already beaten the first 4 levels.
Re: Review: Snowboard Riot (WiiWare)
No, but you actually can play with a single card. Not sure if there is less tracks you can choose from like how mariokart does it though.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
Am buying it right now.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
Just got a points card today. Going to buy it tomorrow after school.

Re: Batten Down The Hatches For Family Pirate Party
Maybe that they put out a game that got a 3/10, then they released a game that got an 8/10.
Re: Family Pirate Party
I hope it's better than mario party 4, cause I hated that game.

Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (25th Feb)
Sweet. The four games I have bought are all in the top 20.
Re: Review: Onslaught (WiiWare)
Same with me. I've only got 300 wii points, but no cash to buy any more.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Onslaught
@ Bahamut ZERO
Doesn't it throw it where your cursor is pointing?
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Onslaught
I don't have the game but the grenade throwing sounds similar to red steel which I had no problem with.

Re: Bit.Trip: Beat
Hopefully swords and soliders will be coming with this as most places say it's coming in feb '09.
Re: Equilibrio
Maybe this will come out with swords and soldiers tomorrow.

Sweet. Thanks
Re: Tetris Party Tournament No. 3 Details
Right here http://www.vc-forums.com/official-tetris-party-friend-code-swapping-thread-t9284.html as posted by Dazza. So is this game really worth 1200 points? Seems like a lot, but I guess if I'm good enough I can win it back in this contest.

@ Wii is MYcrack
According to google maps, you live 229 km from me in the little old town of Lakefield.
Re: LIT
Club ninendo says game can take a few weeks to show up in your account after purchasing them, so it may be a while before the points show up.
