This game is just about as beautiful as they come on any system during any era of video gaming. Just a magnificent piece of work. LKS is easily 1 of my top 3 games on the Wii.
Great review Sean. I've been interested in this game for some time now. It's dirt cheap to buy anymore and thought about just picking it up. Now I think I will. Love me some shooters!
Man, I couldn't agree more. Seriously guys, stop harking on the fact that it's bigger than the DSi. Calling it a beast is just plain ridiculous.
Personally, I find it great that they're coming out with this model. I wasn't planning on ever getting a DSi until now. The system was too small in my hands and I hated using the stylus. This solves those problems.
Uggh! This is tough. I want to box Doc Louis, but once I finish beating him, I'm done. Now with the Mario cap, I could see me enjoying that for years to come.
Doc Louis could appear on a later version of Punch-Out!!! and I would have felt that I wasted my opportunity to purchase a Mario cap. Wish they had a Luigi cap as well.
Demon Blade and Little Kings Story both will be added to my collection when they arrive here in the states. With so many of us already on board, it's just a matter of spreading the word.
I'm looking foward to playing this game. I've heard nothing but great things about it. Great review, Chris. I've seen many demos of the game, and you were able to explain the mechanics as well as possible.
Can't belive Aquarium is beating WOG.....what's this world coming to? Look at Swords and Soldiers already at 10. That's only going to continue to rise.
Yes, the guy is a real jerk. Seems like a coward as well. He wouldn't ever face Steve in a real competition live. He always hides behind closed doors to beat the highest score. I was rooting for Steve to get the title back, but oh well. I think it's just a matter of time before he does.
This is silly. If they want to "woman" her up a bit, I've got no problems with that. As long as they don't go overboard with it, then no harm. I just don't want that to be the main attraction to the game. I want gameplay, and if I want boobs, I can go to the misses for those. LOL!
Wow, the spirit of the master sword. I wonder if this journey will pertain to the master sword "herself"? Something to do with reuniting the sword with it's spirit? A more mature Link? I was expecting something a little more "hairy".
Looks nice, but I'm sceptical of the whole "it's short". Just how short is this game? I'll get it as long as it's not a couple of levels and then done.
X-citing! A more mature Link is very puzzling. Not sure what they mean by that. Do they mean if you say boobie in front of him, he doesn't giggle? LOL!
Great job Nintendo. You covered plenty in the alotted time. If this is any idea with just how many great looking games are to come, you'll be #1 throughout 2010 as well.
This looks great. I was always telling my friends that "New Super Mario" was lacking multiplayer and they not only made it so two of you can play, but now 4! Great job Nintendo. I WILL buy this day one here in NA. I can't wait for this one.

Re: Review: Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber (Virtual Console / Nintendo 64)
I would've been dissapointed for anything less than a 9. I agree with the 10. I've always felt this was the best N64 title ever made.
Atlas really outdid themselves on this title. Kudos to them!
Depending on how you fair throughout the game, there's a different ending for each situation.
I've only beaten the game one time. My ending was sad......
Re: Might The Next Zelda Sense Your Vitality?
Well, this would guarantee that I wouldn't buy the next Zelda, that's for sure!
Bad idea Nintendo.
Re: Miyamoto Confirms Pikmin 3
YES!!! Im looking forward to this on the WII.
Re: Rage of the Gladiator to Cost 1000 Wii Points
You guys have me sold! I promise you that I'll be downloading this one on my console. Thanks!
Re: Ghostfire Games Announces Rage of the Gladiator Contest
I was already planning on getting this game and now with this contest announced it makes it all the more interesting.
Let me be the first to sign up for the challenge.

Re: Japanese Wii Sales Double in a Week
Just bought my second Wii today. With the promotion by Walmart (buy a wii get a $50.00 gift card), I just couldn't pass it up.
Re: Review: Castle of Shikigami III (Wii)
Great review Sean. I've been interested in this game for some time now. It's dirt cheap to buy anymore and thought about just picking it up. Now I think I will. Love me some shooters!
Re: Nintendo Shifted A Boatload Of Hardware Last Week In US
What's the exact number of Wii's sold compared to DSi's?
Re: Sony Boss: All Your Sales Are Belong To Us, Nintendo
Execs are dorks.
With that said, I was at Best Buy today and their was a skid of close to 60 Wiis sitting on the sales floor.
With that said, there were TONS of people buying Wii software.
End comment. The Wii will win this console war hands down. However, it has peaked.

Re: Review: New Super Mario Bros. Wii (Wii)
Great review Corbie and might I add, spot on.
The game is great, peoples. If you are a fan of the old side scrolling Marios, you will love this game. It's unique in so many ways.
I bought this game this morning and haven't regretted a single penny spent. This comes from someone who rarely buys a game for full price.
Yoshi is by far the most fun to play with. Nothing like eating hammers and spitting them back at the hammer bros.!
Re: Muramasa: The Demon Blade - Locations Trailer
Simply beautiful.
Re: Brand New Rage of the Gladiator Gameplay Video
This looks fun! I'll be getting it for sure.
Scott,
Thanks for your comments. If someones willing to put that much effort into coming on the boards to give answers tells me you guys are top notche.
Keep up the good work.
Re: Take on Doc Louis in a Club Nintendo Exclusive Punch-Out!! Game
Uggh! This is tough. I want to box Doc Louis, but once I finish beating him, I'm done. Now with the Mario cap, I could see me enjoying that for years to come.
Doc Louis could appear on a later version of Punch-Out!!! and I would have felt that I wasted my opportunity to purchase a Mario cap. Wish they had a Luigi cap as well.
Re: Incoming! Coming to WiiWare in July
Do I really have to yell incoming? Just asking, neighbors might start complaining.
Re: Marvelous Sad Over Poor Sales
Demon Blade and Little Kings Story both will be added to my collection when they arrive here in the states. With so many of us already on board, it's just a matter of spreading the word.
Re: Dragon Master Gameplay Video
Umm......I was at one time looking foward to this game. Now after seeing that, I'm not so sure. The controls looked terrible.
Re: Icarian: Kindred Spirits flies onto WiiWare this Friday
This game looks crisp. I'm glad to see it's coming out, even though I'm not getting it yet. I look toward the review.
Re: Aliens: Colonial Marines For DS: Not 'Game Over' After All
I'll play it even though I wasn't THAT impressed by the trailer. I love Aliens, so that alone will draw me to it.
Re: R-Type Boss Molded in Plastic
Wow, someone really took some time to make this. Great job whoever you are.
Re: Muramasa: The Demon Blade gets revised European release date
Yes, this game looks amazing. I watched several trailers of it during E3 and was nothing short of impressed.
Re: Ronimo Games Announces North American Swords & Soldiers Prize Winners
What's up with the uber long Mexican name? Is it some sort of envy.......LOL!
Re: Street Fighter II's Bonus Stage: Live Action Spectacular
At some points he has this look on his face like "crap that hurt more then I thought it would"! LOL!
Re: XSEED: Retro Game Challenge 2 Isn't Coming To The US
Too bad, RGC is a great game. I would have loved to seen the sequel. Maybe we'll see it via VC sometime.......
Re: Wii Sports Resort: now with online features!
Would be fun to sword fight online.

Re: Nintendo Download: Wars, Conquests, Rivalries and... Fish? (US)
Wow! What a great update. I look foward to Swords and Soldiers, Fish em' All, and Khan II.
Re: Master the Fish'em All Challenges Video
I am so getting this! Shake that Wiimote baby!
Re: Steve Wiebe Fails To Crack Donkey Kong Record At E3
@Corbie
Yes, the guy is a real jerk. Seems like a coward as well. He wouldn't ever face Steve in a real competition live. He always hides behind closed doors to beat the highest score. I was rooting for Steve to get the title back, but oh well. I think it's just a matter of time before he does.
Re: Steve Wiebe Fails To Crack Donkey Kong Record At E3
Too bad Steve. I liked the show King of Kong. It was interesting to say the least. Never knew this kinda of rivary existed until I watched that show.
Re: Metroid: Other M - Will Samus Get Sexy?
This is silly. If they want to "woman" her up a bit, I've got no problems with that. As long as they don't go overboard with it, then no harm. I just don't want that to be the main attraction to the game. I want gameplay, and if I want boobs, I can go to the misses for those. LOL!
Re: New Wii Zelda Artwork Leaked?
Wow, the spirit of the master sword. I wonder if this journey will pertain to the master sword "herself"? Something to do with reuniting the sword with it's spirit? A more mature Link? I was expecting something a little more "hairy".
Re: Oh No, There's a Zombie Panic in Wonderland
Looks nice, but I'm sceptical of the whole "it's short". Just how short is this game? I'll get it as long as it's not a couple of levels and then done.
Re: New Console Colours to Hit Japan
The black ones sharp! I love the Wiimotes. starts shaking can of black spray paint
Re: Miyamoto Keeps Check On The Opposition
Yeah, way too expensive. Great job Sony, you are pricing yourselves out of competition.
Re: New Super Mario Bros. Wii Only Multiplayer At Home
Big whoop. I'm still buying this day one. I've plenty of peoples to play with over here.
Re: More Than One Metroid In The Pipeline?
Yes, yes, yes! Side scroller baby!
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (3rd June)
It's finally out of the way. Swords and Soldiers will be in the top 3 in no time flat.
Re: Swords & Soldiers Out in North America Next Monday
@ObjectionBlaster
As in the immortal words of the Kool-Aid man "Oh Yeah"!
Re: Swords & Soldiers Out in North America Next Monday
About darn time! I'll download day 1.
Re: Miyamoto: Why Pikmin 3 Was Absent From E3 This Year
I am sadend by the fact that it seems this game is so far away from release.
Re: New Wii Zelda Game in the Works
X-citing! A more mature Link is very puzzling. Not sure what they mean by that. Do they mean if you say boobie in front of him, he doesn't giggle? LOL!
Re: Super Mario Galaxy 2 E3 Trailer
Now I need to work harder at beating the first one!
Re: Metroid: Other M E3 Trailer
Amazing Nintendo. Now I'll sit back and see how the game play functions and hopefully we have a winner.
Re: E3 2009: Nintendo's Announcements
