can someone tell me the difference in PAL? I hear alot about the 50hz thing, but am not sure what you guys are talking about nor what the diffrence is between pal and what we have over here.
@36 Catalog run low???? Come on now, they have enough titles to last years and years, with all the systems and all the games released for them, just ninty titles alone would last for another 2 years at least at this pace
Whenever I heard someone talking about boxing day I thought that this had to do with fighting...and I always thought it odd that other countries would have a holiday about fighting...but to each his own...so I finaly look it up and it is about putting money in boxes for the poor. Dude, maybe call it money for the poor day, or something more fitting. Boxing over here is all about the violence, not about bonuses or extra cash. (unless your Don King that is)
Oh and I am happy you guys got SOM maybe some peace and quiet from the complainers now.
I say down with WiiWARE, it is because of that crap that ninty is only giving us one game, because they think that if they add 2 wiicrap games that they will have 3 games total showing up in the wiiware channel. They think that we want wiiware as much as vc games. And because of that they are limiting the number of games released to the channel each week, why you ask? prolly because they know people are filling thier channel space/hard drive with this crap and are happy to take thier money.
I would rather have 1 vc game then 10 wiiware games released...and sadly that is about what I am getting because of wiiware. Once wiiware really takes off they will probably just quit giving us VC games altogether.
DOWN WITH WIIWARE....GIVE US THE RETRO GAMES WE WANT...NES, SNES, N64...this is why I bought my wii, to play retro games all on one unit, not some 3rd party shovelware crap that is thrown at us each month.
Just my 2 cents...now let me get down off this high horse...lol And if you like wiiware...to bad...go buy a real game and leave the vc to the retro games
If you guys make a mistake and lordbowser catches it, why not give props where they are due, and not delete the comments? It really is not that big of a deal, except to say that he really knows his games.
@cheeze &Stuffgamer...wow, I saw that wolfenstien clone a long time ago...you shot sheep and stuff I think...very odd indeed. I also played a game called bibleman, this one was pc, but it was about nes quality. Amazing what people will do to get thier point out. Can someone enlighten me about the whole liscenced/unliscened game thing...what does this mean exactly...sorry for my ignorance, and thanks for the information it is very interesting.
For those of you that think that they should do this as holiday specific releases, then I will be waiting for some games this Christmas: "King of Kings the early years" Or "Exodus: Journey to the promised land" for the nes please. Both great christian games that were realeased for the nintendo, and would be a awesome tie-in for celebrating the birth of Christ.
Or maybe just earthbound, so I don't have to hear everyone complain about it...LOL
Sorry I am going to use all the ones I was able to buy...I do have some extra pink controller covers...lol. Maybe someone else can find some extra's at thier walmart to sell to you.
Good luck....and do they not have walmarts where you live? they seem to be on every corner over here.
Hey guys, I went to walmart to get a new points card and at the end of the aisle they were clearing out the points card that was sold with the classic controller cover. That pink/blue/green plastic looking thing. Well they said that they were not selling well since people did not want to cover so all walmarts were told to clearance them.
They only had pink left at my store...my friends gave me a bad time about that...but they were 2000 point cards for $15. Just thought I would let everyone know. I went to another walmart in the area and they had just sold out of them, said someone bought most of them when they went on sale that morning.

Re: USA VC Release - Earthworm Jim
@Mr. Cheez, I had not played that one, but it seems very interesting...he is amazingly strong to carry all that livestock all at once...lol
There has been alot of great religous titles down through the years on the nintendo systems...but doubtful we will get them for the virtual console.
Re: USA VC Release - Earthworm Jim
King of kings:

Both are fun games, if any of you have played them.
