Yes, some of us do! I currently have 157 VC games and 26 WiiWare games. I go through Wii Points like crazy. I probably buy a card every week or two. I do get disappointed some weeks when there isn't anything that I want to download. I wish they at least give us one solid game per week.

I love this game. This was the original Street Fighter! I used to play this with my younger brother, back in the 80's. It actually has more depth than you might realize. Here are a list of moves:

  • high strong punch
  • low strong punch
  • high weak punch
  • low weak punch
  • high block
  • low block
  • dodge

That's seven moves! That's more moves than most games from that era had. Then you've got other factors that affect gameplay like flower pots being dropped on your head, cops patrolling the streets, a stamina meter and a timer. A lot of people rip on this game without ever having played it. Many of those who have played it, never played it with another person. It makes a big difference. The single player mode is nothing to sneeze at either. The reviewer here says that "The computer-controlled opponents you face are idiots and are very good at walking directly into your fists if you time your punches just right." Thats a load of crap if you play this game for any significant amount of time (more than 10 minutes perhaps?). The difficulty ramps up later on, providing a serious challenge to anyone.

I'm just glad that someone at Nintendo must still appreciate this game. I feel lucky to have this on my Wii.
