Re: Nintendo Download: Jedis, Drills and Bubbles (US)

jhuhn

This should mean that we could expect Super Star Wars Return of the Jedi to be released on the VC sometime in September.

It's also the first time since May 11, 2009 when only one WiiWare release came out that week and the first time that only one new game from each system came out this week in this region.

Re: Japan Gets 20 More Namco Arcade Games

jhuhn

Galaxian would be nice.....but no games from the Pac-Man series? We only saw Pac-Mania so far....but then again, some of those are in the Namco Arcade classics as retail games.

Too bad Pole Position II isn't among the games on the list either.

Re: Nintendo Download: Pilotwings, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Pop Plus, Arkanoid and Bit.Trip (EU)

jhuhn

This might mean North America may get Arkanoid Plus! very soon as well.....for only 600 Wii points. I'll be downloading Arkanoid when it comes out in my area and the other two additional stages at 200 Wii points each. Pop+ Solo will also be another game I'll be looking forward to downloading on August 24 in my region.

Re: Wii "Most Reliable Console of This Generation"

jhuhn

I have the Wii for almost 2 years and it's still in good condition. But now with the possible wear and tear on the flash memory with copying channels from the SD card to the console, the Wii might start to weaken sometime in 2012.

Re: Nintendo Download: 18-19 August (Japan)

jhuhn

Looks like Nintendo of America should get busy to release a VC arcade game weekly with one VC game on the side if needed. Bomb Jack seems to be a potential release for North America.

Solomon's Key for the VC arcade has been given the rated E from the ESRB.

Re: What LucasArts games do you want to see on Virtual Console?

jhuhn

Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire should be a Virtual Console must from the N64 when you play as Dash and the Episode I Racer as well. I haven't tried the pod racing one yet and love to see it on the console within the next year.

Manian Mansion would be another choice, either from the NES or the C64.

Re: Flipnote Studio Available This Friday

jhuhn

I'm pretty sure because of this Nintendo of America will follow suit on the release of Flipnote Studio on August 17, 2009. Oh wait, we got it on August 12? So we actually got it before the PAL regions will get it. LOL!

Re: Review: Battle Poker (WiiWare)

jhuhn

Battle Poker doesn't take up a lot of blocks either....and this game is more of a puzzle thinking game and you have to beat the clock trying to score more points than your opponent.

Re: Arkanoid Plus!

jhuhn

I think it'll be 600 for North America plus 200 for downloadable content to make it 800 Wii points.

Re: Puzzle Bobble Plus!

jhuhn

The total with the extra downloads comes to only 1,000 Wii points in North America, or 200 points for each of the additional downloadable content.

Re: Pop Creator Bringing New Apps to DSiWare

jhuhn

myNotebook could be good to take some notes when needed and saved until you want to erase a page. With 32 pages, there's so much room to write and record. OK Nic, you're entitled to a hug for this..... LOL

Re: Arcade Sports

jhuhn

We could easily get bowling in Wii Sports and the pool games in Pool Revolution Cue Sports are probably much better.

Re: Contra ReBirth

jhuhn

IGN is projecting a North America release in the month of August, near its PAL release date.

Result: They came close, but it was September 4 & 7.

Re: Family Card Games

jhuhn

What card games are there on this Family game? I only see Hearts and that's it.
At least this one has got Wi-Fi.

Re: DRiiFT MANIA

jhuhn

Looks like this game could be targeted for a July 31 release for the PAL regions.

Re: Art Style: CODE

jhuhn

It's now out in North America titled "BASE 10". However, the game should have been made to issue an option of the writer is right or left-handed.

Re: Review: Pulseman (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)

jhuhn

The ESRB has rated the game as E a few months ago, so it could be a future North America release for 900 Wii points if Nintendo of America considers it. With not many VC and VC Arcade games rated and planned for a release, you know why they are mostly doing one VC game a week.

Re: Diner Dash

jhuhn

The ESRB gave this game a rating for their North America release on WiiWare, as rated E.

Re: Art Style: Cubello

jhuhn

You just keep eliminating blocks and get 1,000 bonus and you get another Cubello puzzle to solve. This game only uses no more than 50 blocks so it is a must have.
