I can't disagree with this one, New Super Mario Bros. Wii is a masterpiece. It would be my Game of the Year, except for the exceptionally stellar Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, which I feel is a step above the rest of 2009's games.
I've yet to beat a single stage in this; it's pretty freaking hard! So far I'm not finding it as enjoyable as Beat. It seems just a whole lot harder and less fun. But on I'll go as I really enjoyed Beat and want to see all that Core has to offer!
But you guys made an error in the Game Overview section. The number of players is definitely more than 1. A friend and I did 2-player, so I'm guessing it goes up to 4-player but I'm not sure.
A lot of great info on some cool looking games. Personally I'm very excited for a lot of these, namely Super Meat Boy, LostWinds, Bit.Trip VOID, and Night Sky. I'm not totally convinced about Max & the Magic Marker or You, Me, and Cubes, but they certainly look interesting!
I also have a question about Nintendo Life as a whole. Is this site a full time job for a lot of you? As in this is what you do on a day to day basis to make a living? If so that's awesome and I'm really jealous of you and your job. By the way, keep up the great work guys. I look forward to your DSiWare coverage!
Great interview guys. Really insightful and informative. And dang is some of that fan art amazing!
I have yet to play CORE, but I better do so soon before VOID comes out. But I have played Bit.Trip BEAT, and it's amazing, one of my favorite WiiWare games for sure.
If I counted correctly there's been 15 classic Gameboy reviews so far, with 5 left. I'm hoping that Link's Awakening, Pokemon Red/Blue, and Kirby's Dream Land 2 all get reviewed in this time period.
Wow, what a bad score. Even so, I'll probably buy it with my free Nintendo Points just to try it, especially since other sites like IGN have given it better reviews.
Sounds interesting. I still need to check out CUBELLO and ROTOHEX on the Wii, as I loved ORBIENT. The Art Style games really are a bunch of unique titles.
I agree, why stop the Art Style games now Nintendo? There's still all the other bit Generations titles, plus I'm sure you could think up some more original titles like Cubello.
Awesome, I loved the flash animations, but I still haven't had the time or Wii points (not to mention Wii blocks) to buy them... but I'll have to do that soon.
Nice review. I bought it, but haven't had the time to play a lot of it. Probably once I get more people over. And I don't see what's so wrong with an 8... That's a pretty good score.
I bought Fake Man's stage, but paying for more ass kicking doesn't seem logical. The game is hard enough. Maybe they should release an Easy mode if anything (though I wouldn't get that either).
It's my favorite WiiWare game by far... (second is Mega Man 9, and third is LostWInds). IMO it's not nearly as good as Super Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, or Resident Evil 4. But it's still one heck of a game. Everyone needs to buy it and support 2D Boy. We need a World of Goo 2! (And I haven't even beaten the game yet... xD.)

Re: Review: Metroid Prime Trilogy (Wii)
Great review.
My copy should be here from Amazon any day now. I really can't wait myself. I only played the third on the Wii and am eager to try out the other two.

/fingers crossed
Re: Flipnote Studio available for download in North America NOW!
This will probably be lost in the flood of comments and quality of the videos, but here's mine... (took me about three hours for this one...)
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (8th Apr)
Nice to see World of Goo at the top and Bit.Trip Beat doing well. Both deserve the spots.
Though I was surprised Bonsai Barber didn't make it on. Most WiiWare games get on the charts at least one week.
Re: Review: Rhythm Heaven (DS)
Great review. I played the demo on the Nintendo Channel and really loved it, so I'll be buying this alongside a DSi sometime soon.
Re: Review: Pyoro (DSiWare)
Seeing how I never played the original WarioWare and how this is only 200 Nintendo Points, I'll definitely be purchasing this one when I get a DSi.
Re: Review: Paper Plane (DSiWare)
Looks cool. I for one have never played the original WarioWare, so I didn't get to experience this or Pyoro.
Re: Review: WarioWare: Snapped! (DSiWare)
Wow, what a bad score. Even so, I'll probably buy it with my free Nintendo Points just to try it, especially since other sites like IGN have given it better reviews.
Re: Review: Art Style: AQUITE (DSiWare)
Great review. Whenever I get a DSi, I'll get this with my free Nintendo points.
Re: Review: Art Style: CODE (DSiWare)
Sounds interesting. I still need to check out CUBELLO and ROTOHEX on the Wii, as I loved ORBIENT. The Art Style games really are a bunch of unique titles.
Re: Wayforward Launches Official LIT Web Site
The game looks really great. The puzzles look really unique and the game looks kind of spooky overall. Can't wait for it.
Re: Metacritic's Best Wii Games of 2008
World of Goo and Brawl totally deserve those spots, though I would've switched their places.
Re: Review: Tiki Towers (WiiWare)
Meh... another mediocre WiiWare title. No thanks.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (24th Dec)
Nice to see World of Goo still at the top... it totally deserves it. And hope everybody had a Merry Christmas!
Re: Wayforward Interview - LIT
Nice interview. I can't wait for the game.
Re: Wii Firmware Update Makes Transferring to SD Faster
Very nice...
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (19th Nov)
Nice to see World of Goo back at the top. Such an awesome game...
Re: Review: Target Toss Pro: Bags (WiiWare)
Yeah... no thanks. But it was higher scored than I expected.
Re: Exclusive WiiWare Cave Story Screenshot!
Digging the new look. I'll definitely be picking this up!
Re: Review: Strong Bad Episode 4 - Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective (WiiWare)
Definitely gonna pick this up... that is, once I've beaten 2 and 3!
Re: LostWinds Coming To Japanese WiiWare In December
Good for them!
I still can't wait for the sequel!
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (12th Nov)
Nice to see Tetris Party and World of Goo still 1/2ing it. Both are great titles.
Re: Art Style Series Coming To Europe Soon
I agree, why stop the Art Style games now Nintendo? There's still all the other bit Generations titles, plus I'm sure you could think up some more original titles like Cubello.
Re: World of Goo Coming to WiiWare in Europe!
That's great news for you Europeans. Go out and buy this game... once it comes out!
Re: Strong Bad Episode 4: Dangeresque 3 Coming To US WiiWare On Monday
The madness will end once all five are out...
Re: Review: Yummy Yummy Cooking Jam (WiiWare)
Anyone reading that wants a good cooking game, check out Order Up!, it's by far the best one for the Wii and a damn good game overall.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Brain Challenge and Yummy Yummy Cooking Jam
No thanks on both... on the other hand, Mega Man 3 would be cool.. maybe I'll get that.
Re: Art Style Series Coming To Europe Soon
Good for you guys. Definitely pick up ORBIENT, but I don't know about the other two as I never played them...
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (5th Nov)
Nice to see World of Goo still doing well.
Re: Mega Man 9 DLC Round-up
Yeah, is it confirmed there won't be any more? I'd love to see some more. Like a new stage and Bass as a playable character.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (29th Oct)
World of Goo deserves that top spot still, it's the best WiiWare game so far...!
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Strong Bad Episode 3 and Art Style: Rotohex
Pretty good week IMO.
Re: Baddest of the Bands Launches 27th Oct On WiiWare
Awesome, I loved the flash animations, but I still haven't had the time or Wii points (not to mention Wii blocks) to buy them... but I'll have to do that soon.
Re: Toki Tori Invades Japan
I still need to pick this up. I'll probably buy it soon...
Re: Review: The Incredible Maze (WiiWare)
Crap... goes off to play World of Goo
Re: Review: Tetris Party (WiiWare)
Nice review. I bought it, but haven't had the time to play a lot of it. Probably once I get more people over. And I don't see what's so wrong with an 8... That's a pretty good score.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (22nd Oct)
Who is seriously buying My Aquarium? Is it that good...?
Re: Second Wave of Mega Man 9 DLC Released!
I bought Fake Man's stage, but paying for more ass kicking doesn't seem logical. The game is hard enough. Maybe they should release an Easy mode if anything (though I wouldn't get that either).
Re: Digital Leisure Announces Sudoku Challenge!
I dunno, I like Sudoku, but Brain Age is more than enough for me...
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Tetris Party & The Incredible Maze
I'll be playing Tetris Party soon...
Re: Tetris Party Hits Europe Friday
Good for you guys. I'm downloading it right now, hopefully it's awesome.
Re: World of Goo is Officially the Best Wii Game Ever
It's my favorite WiiWare game by far... (second is Mega Man 9, and third is LostWInds). IMO it's not nearly as good as Super Mario Galaxy, Twilight Princess, or Resident Evil 4. But it's still one heck of a game. Everyone needs to buy it and support 2D Boy. We need a World of Goo 2! (And I haven't even beaten the game yet... xD.)
Re: Capcom Releases Two Mega Man 9 Downloadable Content Packs
Get both if you can. They're worth it.
Re: Fake Man Content Pack Coming To WiiWare Next Week?
Can't wait for more Mega Man DLC. I hope the download packs don't end here, and they keep releasing more DLC.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (15th Oct)
Nice to see Mega Man 9 still selling awesome. I expect World of Goo to take the #1 spot next week though.
Re: Review: Art Style: Cubello (WiiWare)
Great review. Gonna pick this up soon. I loved Orbient.
