Awesome games you played there! Can't wait for the individual impressions.

Great impressions James, What a shame thwre wasn't some of the cool games on E3, still, can't wait to get to see the 3DS myself.

Awesome impressions, as a big fan of the original DKC series, for me, this sounds like a dream come true , YAY for 2D platforming!
Once again, thanks for all the great work Corbie.

I'm sooo hyped about this game and DKCR , and this one has some splendid visuals (so charming ), sounds like tight controls, and, hopefully, fast paced gameplay, as KSS.
This E3 showcased the return of awesome 2D platforming! And I'm loving it.
Thanks for the impressions Corbie, you are the man .

LOL Corbie just wanted to play not talk.
Epic Man, can't wait for the "longer, more coherent article" .

Corbie, we are all with you!
You are the man! Have fun .

I predicted shovelware for WiiWare!
Good to see MM4 on VC, though I have the MM collection, that means absolutly nothing for me this week.

On a side note, heck those G&W games are too expensive, what a rip off Nintendo; those games are better as Club Nintendo awards. I'm with Stuffy here, better go get G&W Gallery 4.

Awesome selection! Gonna listen to it now, thanks!

Not a bad week, is good to see some love for the NEO GEO shmups. Nothing I would want to DL, which is good, I'm broke again ...

Finally, Super Mario Kart congratulations EU!

I'm with you Don: some Mario Super Picros for NA please?

I'm too smart to have a tweeter account, is there any other way to enter? /kd lol

Good luck to all NL tweeters!

Happy Anniversary Nintendo Life!
You guys are the best, talking points, news, reviews just name it, you own it . And thanks for helping me invest my valuable "wii"points since fhe days of WWW and VC-R .

@aNt New features are coming?! YAHOO! , thanks for working so hard on the site.

You guys rule! Awesome joke! LOL You got me for a moment there .

Also, Happy Merge Anniversary! I almost cried when I saw the old layouts, I miss those days, when I had barely discovered WiiWare-World.

What a shame, Red Steel 2, looks sweet. I think the reason of this poor performance, are all those first party titles about to come out (Sin & Punishment and SMG 2 are around the corner, money must be saved), and of course Monster Hunter 3, which seems to have full Nintendo support (many videos on the Nintendo Channel). I don't think I will be able to get MH3 nor RS2 in a while. Still, if I had to chose between slaying "old west human badies", or "cute (imo) awesome monsters", bring on the badies >:3.

Interesting week, as I said before, I'm all over Wiiware versions of PC games, so I will get Dinner Dash, but later on, I'm totally money less . Congratulations, to all the strategy lovers for getting Ogre Battle 64, not my genre, but I've heard this game is sweet .
Also, After a good research on WarioWare DIY (that means, I just read Corbie's great review ), I really think is not for me, so no need for the Showcase.

It sounds possible, but I don't think 3D is such a big thing, also two words:
Motion Sickness
I have enough problems with "unperfect" 3D thank you. It still depends on the camera movement and placement though, so I'm ok as long as it can be turned off.

Alright! Finally Cave Story! , I'm getting it and Tumblebugs 2 right away. PC games onto the Wii FTW! XD

There go my hopes of getting this and Rondo of blood this monday .

But it has all the extra content so is not that bad, and we're finally getting it .

Rondo of Blood?! O.O... Oh Yeah , as a fan of Dracula X, I've been wanting to try the, so called, better version. I hope to be able to get it next week, along with Cave Story.

I agree with this review. Played this game a couple of times at a friend's house, didn't like it at all, too much text for a dumb story to begin with, then too much touch screen gimmicks, and finally the fact that I'm lefty, and didn't like to use my right thumb to move the character with the buttons instead of the pad, so I started switching from pad to stylus, and was awful.
Of course that's just me, and I see some people liked it, so, if you've ever considered getting this game, why not try it?, but really TRY IT FIRST.

Great review Corbie! Man, I'm gonna have to steal some money to get this!

-Besides classic arcade, what is your favorite video game genre?
-How many games do you consider yourself, good at?
-Any general tips for breaking records on classic games?

Good update! Very interested on Mega Man 10, retro gaming FTW! but I have very little money, and I need to save every penny I get for SMG2.

It sounds great! imo. The controls are interesting and different; and I always wanted to know what Samus thought about the "little" metroid sacrifice. I can't wait for this game, it will be my birthday present for sure .

After reading most of the news, I have to congratulate the NL staff for the great coverage , good work guys, thank you.
So, there wasn't any spectacular announcements in the event after all (except perhaps Cave Story release date for me ), but the release dates and all new footage and information about this year's big hits are well received .

WHAT?!!! O.O FOR REAL???
I surely hope so

Not a very impresive update, but GhostSlayer and Mouse House sound decent, will see.
The lack of VC is sad, but I just hope people doesn't start threads about how the VC is "over" or something.

Alright, I knew I'd find this review ready for the weekend, and what a nice surprise a 9, this game sounds cool. Well reviewed Corbie, thanks, this goes directly to the games to DL list (if only I weren't that broken ).

Why is people complaining?, it is Corbie's opinion, you shouldn't be mad at someone else opinion.

Great update W00T!
Shame I won't get its stellar games, since I have the Sonic Mega Collection, and a friend from who I can borrow the PW:AA DS games, which, after playing the first, I know I don't want to actually own.
Eagerly waiting for the Art of Balance review.

Good download! So many things I'd be willing to try if I had some extra money, but I don't ; saving my money for Super Meat Boy, MM10 and maybe Cave Story. Still, eagerly waiting for Blaster Master: Overdrive and Princess Tomato reviews.

I'm glad is comimg, but I'll wait for the review; after playing the disappointing Sonic Rush, I have my doubts.

"the game play is about 99% identical to Zuma" I'm sold , thanks for the review Spencer.

Awesome review Corbie, never imagined you were going to review this, it sounds so different, and unique, as a SMB2 fan, I wish I could give it a try.

WOW, so many comments and panic for a little tweeter rumour, LOL THIS is internet .

Honestly, I'm not trpubled, if it happens they may do it right, and no problem; if it doesn't happen... no problem .

Good update, for me at least . As a Zuma fan, I've been waiting for Tumblebugs, never liked the Magnetica Twist control idea, so I hope this one is closer to the PC game. Also, the last Alex Kidd game seems like the kind of platformer I'd like to play on peaceful afternoon, short, simple and enjoyable. ToMI is a good release too, just not my cup of tea.

Not a bad week, but there's nothing for me. I wanted UNO but I'm with everyone saying 1000 points is a ripoff, I mean I have the actual card game, and I learned my lesson: never buy a game solely for the online.

Wii Play, it's a collection of short burts, arcadey games imo; and if it's the number one on sales, I wonder why people asks why Nintendo is focusing more on this type of games.

YAY! Muscle March! ... awww have no points , but I'll get it ASAP, it looks soooo funny. Also nice VC game, but I'm not into the Shinobi series.

Hooray! It's coming, and only 500 points . This game looks hilarious and fun, I'm just worried about new music, I'd have liked that it kept all the japanese songs, but that wouldn't happen .

LOL Corbie

Not a bad update, Chrono Twins DX looks awesome! , Phoenix Wright is good, but I don't know, I kind of rented it from a friend to try it, and is not the type of game I'd play more than once, so, I'll just finish the DS version.

An "Absolutely Nothing for Me" week, but, since I'm absolutely without points, I don't care .

, is it really that good Corbie!?I Wow, sounds cool, It also seems like a good practice before harder Castlevanias.

This game looks so good, is gonna be a must buy, I know it.

Er... register on twitter to get my name on a game thousands of persons will play... for some reason both of those things sounds horrible to me

Not a bad update, I'm sad we got back to one VC, but it was expected, whatever; I'll get Pilotwigs later on, just for nostalgia. Waiting for the reviews of The Magic Obelisk and Castlevania The Adventure Rebirth. As good as a new, old school Castlevania sounds, the title is gonna sell just for being called Castlevania, so who knows what to expect from the game itself.

I yelled like that when I got my wii, of course hearing "and the first winner of a Nintendo Wii is:" before your name can rise the excitement about it .

Cool video LOL, Thanks NL, and Merry Christmas to you all!

Oh! Corbie this news are a great Xmas present. I really thought Cave Story was going to be cancelled. Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you!

Alright, I'm getting Gunstar Heroes for sure, maybe Puyo Puyo. Mmmm I have the Sonic Mega Collection but I hate the controls, the GC controller's pad sucks, this could be my chance to get at least one Sonic game to play right.

Nice update! Nothing for me (though, Eco-shooter sounds interesting, waiting for the review), but I just got the perfect Xmas present to gift to my best friend, so YAY Smash! Thank you Nintendo for releasing it before Christmas.

Great review Corbie, I already wanted to try this out, but after reading about it, I'm dying for playing it.

Developers should have learned by now that, even well implemented, motion controls are not for everybody, and there should always be an alternative control scheme.

@KDR_11k
I'm glad to hear about Dragon Master's update, I may consider it now. NL should definitely update their reviews when the games get improved.
