The tagline pretty much summed the review up. Hopefully Taito'll support the VC Arcade eventually and give us Darius Gaiden. I'd buy that one in a heartbeat.
2 VC arcade games in one week? Awesome! Here's hoping we have consecutive VC releases until the end of the month. Will be checking out the Fludity demo too.
I'll be picking up all the demoes except Fate since I already bought that one. Also, do I spy another Neo-Geo game that isn't on a compliation? Awesome.
The only things I liked about this game was the fact you could save wherever and the fact that you could play as Luigi in one player mode and he behaved differently than Mario. Other than that, I prefer the SNES version.

Re: Europe's 3DS Launch Line-Up According to Gamestation
Pilotwings is the only one that interests me.
Re: Mayhem in Monsterland
I played this a bit on the computer and it was fun, but I found the keyboard controls uncomfortable. Hopefully this'll come to NA eventually.
Re: Behold This Boppin' BIT.TRIP FLUX Trailer
Mid-level checkpoints? Good. Maybe I'll actually stand a chance of beating it unlike the game it's based after.
Re: 3DS Battery Life Revealed
That's as pathetic as the Game Gear's battery life. At least it doesn't take 6 AA batteries.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th December 2010 (North America)
I was hoping for Super Bonk this week but oh well. 2 VC games is good too, even if one of them is crap.
Re: Talking Point: Your Nintendo Moment of 2010
Definitely the announcement of Donkey Kong Country Returns.
Re: Talking Point: Your Nintendo Christmas Presents
I got Donkey Kong Country Returns.
Re: Brian Provinciano Addresses Retro City Rampage WiiWare Delay
@Waveboy: Microsoft probably made it a timed exclusive.
Re: Put Your Mario Party Hats On This Monday, North America
Already have the cartridge so I'll pass. Hopefully they'll release Super Bonk next week or the week after.

Re: Nintendo Download: 13th December 2010 (North America)
lit line demo? Awesome!
As for Darius Twin, it's not a bad game but it's extremely bland and easy (except for the last stage).
Re: Nintendo Download - 10th December 2010 (Europe)
@Omega: MUSHA says hi.
Re: No Love for Super Mario All-Stars in UK Top 20 Chart
Good. Also glad to see DKCR doing well.

Re: Nintendo Download: 8th November 2010 (North America)
No demos? Lame. :/
Re: Super Mario Bros. 25th Anniversary
Great contest. I'll probably end up getting either Mega Man 2 or River City Ransom if I win.
Re: Space Ace ESRB Prepped to Enter the DSiWare Dimension
It would be hilarious if it were the SNES version. God that game was awful.
Re: Cave Story Update Now Available
@Bones00: It keeps your save files after you've updated it.
Re: Cave Story Update Now Available
Awesome.
Re: BIT.TRIP FATE Coming October 25th
Can't freakin' wait. This game is going to be AWESOME.
Re: Review: Rival Turf! (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
"The same could be said of Capcom, who struggled to make lightning strike twice with two lukewarm SNES sequels."
Final Fight 3 says otherwise.
Re: Rumour: Limited Edition Red Wii Europe-Bound Before Christmas
@XD375: That would be super awesome, but that's not going to happen.
Re: 1942
This game is alright, but it's a bit dated. Hopefully the sequels will be coming shortly after.
Re: Charity Marathon Sees Every NES Game Played Back to Back
He'll have to play crap like Action 52 and Back to the Future eventually. Then again, it is for charity so he's gotta do what he's gotta do.
Re: OFLC Rates Magical Drop II for Virtual Console
Pass since 3 is on Data East Arcade Classics, which I have. A shame Europe doesn't have it yet.
Re: October is Spook Month on Nintendo Life
I saw Fester's Quest on the Games list in the Retro section so I have a feeling it'll get a review.
Re: Nintendo Release Schedule Outs Mario Party 2, Super Bonk and More
Super Bonk? Awesome. Been wanting to try that one out.
Re: Super Bonk
Sweet. Been wanting to try this one out.
Re: Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Races to WiiWare on October 11th
The anticipation is killing me already.
Re: Cave Story
If I had a DSi I would get this again because it's that awesome.
Re: Interview: Brian Provinciano - Retro City Rampage
This game looks so awesome. Hopefully it'll be 10-12 dollars but I can settle with 15.
Re: SonSon
@Keeperbvk: What I meant was charging 800 points for a game that looks like it should be 500 or maybe 600 points.
Re: Commando
Very glad to see Capcom is showing VCA interest. Hopefully the 19XX games will get ratings soon.
Re: SonSon
800 points? Ugh I hope not. We don't need another Zaxxon repeat.
Re: Exed Exes
USK rated? Sweet, that means there's a chance Capcom will support the VCA outside of Japan unlike Namco. But the question is, when's it coming?
Also, what country or region does the USK rate for anyways?
Re: Doc Clock and the Toasted Sandwich of Time Our New Favourite Game Title Ever
Let's see if Stickmen Studios can make a game that isn't awful this time.
Re: Back to the Future
I've played this game before.
I want those 5 minutes back LJN.
Re: Review: G.G Series: Ninja Karakuri Den (DSiWare)
Sounds like my type of game.
Re: Gunpei Yokoi Gets The Legacy Treatment
The Love Tester from Pikmin 2 is real? Awesome.
Re: Nintendo Download 25th August 2010 (Japan)
Only two games this week for Japan with one of them being medicore? Ouch.
Re: Watch Dr. Wily's Between-Game Preparations, D.I.Y.-Style
Cool.
Re: The Evolution of Mario, Ka-Boomed into a Mushroom Cloud
They had a Donkey Kong hockey game? Awesome.
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th August 2010 (North America)
Time to go back to bed because this week looks especially lame.
Re: Review: Star Fox Command (DS)
Ehh, no thanks. I'll stick with the rail shooter ones.
Re: Review: My Aquarium 2 (WiiWare)
Looks boring. :/
Re: G.G Series: ZONE
Awesome. DSiWare needs some shooters.
Re: Rival Turf!
Looks like a Final Fight knockoff. And a mediocre one at that.
Re: Witness the Birth of My Little Baby on WiiWare This November
More WiiShovelWare. Whoopie...
