I couldn't find where it said it was coming out on 7/13 at Game Informer. Even so, I'd wager it was a guess like IGN. Even if it does end up being right, I'm willing to be they were still guesses.
@jangonov It does, but it SECRETLY updates on Sunday Nights sometimes with whatever WiiWare and sometimes DSiWare are going to come out a few hours before the PR comes out.
Ah wait a sec here. Tales of Monkey Island is confirmed via IGN date guessing?
While I do think theres a good enough chance, that's not exactly too reliable. I remember a few instances last summer where they had a lot of upcoming WiiWare games with the next Monday's date stamped on it and more often then not it turned out to be wrong.
Besides, wouldn't Telltale tell us ahead of time like they did with Strong Bad?
Great, now that Europe has BOXLIFE the US better get the last 2 Art Styles in the next couple weeks.
Keep in mind the US got ALL THREE WiiWare Art Style games before Europe AND Japan got their first one so we can spare being late to getting all DSiWare Art Styles.
I'm so glad they updated saying they aren't done yet! I REALLY HATE IT when people blame Nintendo for not releasing games when it's not their fault it's not finished.
We're at 95 games right now so I'm guessing it's gonna be another Triple Release next Monday and a Double for the 6th. In fact, I guess getting Bit.Trip Core to be Game 100 like that might be why they ramped up the amount of releases lately so I imagine it'll go down soon after that.
All these kind of applications have been released. At least as far as Clocks and Calcs go, this is it. Expect the next few weeks to be full of Art Styles, Sudokus, Gameloft titles, and those Domo games.
Poor Europe gets hurt with higher prices. Not in this case. I'm pretty sure Space Harrier will be 800 all around. They also get Gaplus for 100 cheaper then we do so it's not all ripoffs.
Unless NoJ have a series of errors on their website Mr. Brain is indeed coming next week: both the DSiWare index and the Mr. Brain page state 27/05 is the release date.
I didn't realize what I said could be taken TWO ways. I meant the 6 DSi game deal Square and Intelligent Systems had.
Gosh I remember when M&L came out and I was wondering about the Star shaped thing that had a poster. When I was browsing around NCL's site I thought they had a made a franchise out of Twink from Paper Mario!
What is meant by a "ton more content" on the 360/PS3 versions of Crystal Defenders? What else are they doing different that isn't in the WiiWare versions? I know out game lasts longer, I think.
I hope NA gets S&S on monday, but, with the 300 VC game comming, NOA may neglect Wiiware.
Nah there's no way they WOULDN'T upload a WiiWare game. Besides, seeing as how IGN US did a review of it, and all of their advance WiiWare reviews hit the weekend before, that pretty much seals the deal that its coming Monday.
You got it. There was only one file per Jungle Beat. It was games like these that made me buy a 1019 GC Card so I wouldnt have to share with my brothers.
the European market that tends to get at least 2-3 more titles per week across the formats than we do in the NA market, and that IS a problem, Have you been paying attention lately? They've pretty much had the same kinda weeks we do now.
Oh you know these numbers I have tacked on the end are just a formality or something like that! You can just leave them off when you wanna refer to me. Or use my typical nickname "WF". I always feel kinda weird seeing it all written out in a conversation.
DSiWare isn't doing anything to the VC and WiiWare releases. They were like this before DSiWare came out. WiIWare isn't even doing anything to the VC releases. They were slowing down before WiiWare came out. It's not a matter of taking up slots, Nintendo just doesn't have as much in the queue as they did in 2007.
I noticed that Family Pirate Party on the NIntendo Channel has the BLUE WiFi logo on it. I believe in Japan it had the Pay to Play Logo on it. The DLC has become free or a simple mistake?
NO! NO! I HATE articles like this that imply that we should be mad this isn't going on the Wii or something like that. I'm not angry because its going to XBLA, I'll happily buy it again. I'm angry that I'm being told I should be angry its going to be XBLA when its nothing to be angry about!
Why would it be the end of one game weeks? Europe isn't really getting more releases, they just possibly decided to stop splitting up the categories. This release matches a typical Monday for us.

Re: Revenge of Shinobi - Spidey goes pink!
What about the Hulk/Terminator thing? Everything Ive read says he wasn't replaced in the revised versions so far but how about now?
Or is the resemblance not as obvious?

Oh lord...
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - August 2009
I wonder why Final Fantasy VI wasn't part of the intial Final Fantasy's coming to the VC?
You skipped over V? I'm insulted!
I think 5 and 6 will show up eventually. Hopefully. Square did say there are currently no plans to DS Remake those two and this could be why.
Re: What Neo Geo games do you want to see on the Virtual Console?
Are companies actually asking for these or are we just hoping sending in wishlists will convince them to support VC more?
Re: Nintendo Rep: Virtual Console Being Toned Down
Oh great, now NIntendoLife has fallen for this. I thought you guys would know better...
Re: Review: 5 Spots Party (WiiWare)
Glad to see it got pretty good score.
Re: Nintendo Download: Bits, Tanks, Ants, Commandos, Pulses and Brains (US)
IT'S BEEN OVER THREE MONTHS SINCE WE GOT A GOOD WEEK, NOW IT'S HERE!
Are you kidding? We've had good weeks these last three months.
Oh wait, don't tell me you only consider weeks with more then one VC as good weeks? How pathetic.

Re: Bit Boy!! and Tales of Monkey Island Coming to North American on Monday
The approx time when the Nintendo Channel SECRETLY updates on Sunday Nights is like 3-4 AM Central.

Huh..is the Game & Watch text the same as the Pictobits text?

Re: Nintendo Download: Cores, Bubbles, Chariots, Sports, Numbers and Cars (US)
Their not saving SSB for 350. Thats silly. If anything they just wanted to space out the releases of Majora's Mask and SSB.
Re: Nintendo Download: Cores, Bubbles, Chariots, Sports, Numbers and Cars
3rd month in a row where a C64 game is part of the first update for that month. Coincedence or Pattern?

Then all is going according to plan....
Re: Rumor: Nintendo Prepping More Non-Games For DSiWare
Hey doesn't Japan's DSiWare have some kinda Nintendo made Map app? If its anything like that I'm all for it.
Hell I'm all for whatever they make out of these. I'm cool with non-games.
Re: Nintendo Download: Fantasies, Fishing, Warfare, Reversi and Sudoku (US)
Man, sometimes I wish Cave Story was never announced, then some people wouldn't immediately shun every WiiWare game that wasn't Cave Story.
Re: Nintendo Download: Fantasies, Fishing, Warfare, Reversi and Sudoku (US)
I doubt they're going to release more than 4 games a week since the recommended games list on the front page can only hold 4 games.
Uh no...The Reccomended Game list on the Front Page doesnt even always list EVERYTHING that came out that Monday so it doesn't really matter.
100th wiiware confirmed already. Its bit trip core. Hopefully it will be more than one game.
Well yeah there has to be. We're at 98.
Re: Nintendo Download: Fantasies, Fishing, Warfare, Reversi and Sudoku (US)
But Super Fantasy Zone doesn't have Warps!
Re: Nintendo Download: Fantasies, Fishing, Warfare, Reversi and Sudoku (US)
Super Meat Boy, though the latter I think we'd have heard something about its release by now.
Don't expect Super Meat Boy for a long while. Upcoming Games List from E3 said it was coming Early 2010.

Re: BIT.TRIP CORE Coming to WiiWare July 6th
OH SO THATS WHAT 100 MEANT.
We're at 95 games right now so I'm guessing it's gonna be another Triple Release next Monday and a Double for the 6th. In fact, I guess getting Bit.Trip Core to be Game 100 like that might be why they ramped up the amount of releases lately so I imagine it'll go down soon after that.
Re: Review: SimEarth: The Living Planet (Virtual Console / TurboGrafx-16)
Sigh. I was hoping this would be a good game. But it's not, leaving us with a medicoric week for the Virtual Console.
Uh...6/10 is still a pretty good game....
Re: Nintendo Download: Toasters, Rainbows, Catching, Calculators, Clocks and Harriers (US)
All these kind of applications have been released. At least as far as Clocks and Calcs go, this is it. Expect the next few weeks to be full of Art Styles, Sudokus, Gameloft titles, and those Domo games.

Re: Nintendo Download: Flip Champs, Final Fantasy IV, Boulder Dash (US)
Why did they not release Final Fantasy IV before The After Years?
Because we haven't even gotten the first one yet. That has to come first.
Re: Nintendo Download: Space Harrier Arcade, Fish'em All and Art Style: NEMREM (EU)
Poor Europe gets hurt with higher prices.
Not in this case. I'm pretty sure Space Harrier will be 800 all around. They also get Gaplus for 100 cheaper then we do so it's not all ripoffs.
Re: Review: Photo Clock (DSiWare)
I don't really have a problem with the Clock (or Calc) apps. Maybe if they were anything above 200 but I'm totally cool with them.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26 May 2009 (Japan)
Unless NoJ have a series of errors on their website Mr. Brain is indeed coming next week: both the DSiWare index and the Mr. Brain page state 27/05 is the release date.
I didn't realize what I said could be taken TWO ways. I meant the 6 DSi game deal Square and Intelligent Systems had.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26 May 2009 (Japan)
Mr. Brain isn't part of the 6 DSi games deal. Not from what I can see. Also I just noticed the Tanagrams puzzle is really NEVES Plus.

Re: Nintendo Download: Masks, Crystals, Chess and Art (US)
What is meant by a "ton more content" on the 360/PS3 versions of Crystal Defenders? What else are they doing different that isn't in the WiiWare versions? I know out game lasts longer, I think.
360/PS3 = 12 maps
R1 + R2 = 26 maps
That's the why I understand it.

It probably already is for all we know. The ESRB doesn't always show games before they get released.
