@KS8 - I have both Pit Crew & SIGE (all the packs)

This update is way better than last week! I'm downloading both!

@ Bass - Yes it might be. The Japanese get the game at a lower cost tomorrow, which is 500 Wii Points.

Ha ha! Look's like I was right in my predictions how much this game would cost here... It is 800 Wii Points!

"Something tells me that Picross isn't quite as popular as SoM."

Yes, we've been waiting....BASICALLY A YEAR for Mario's Super Picross. I have no idea when we'll get the game.

There's only 10 titles lined up for the month in total, which is also a surprisingly low amount.

I think Japan is going to have a big WiiWare month rather than VC.

Pit Crew Panic! is coming to the Japanese WiiWare service on December 2, 2008 for 500 Wii Points. Although it will be that much there I believe the game will be 800 here, but we'll wait and see.

Here is the page of the game from the NoJ site:

Overturn is coming to the Japanese WiiWare service on December 2, 2008 for 800 Wii Points. The controller options are very interesting as it supports the Wii Balance Board and the Wii Remote + Nunchuk.

Here is the game page on the Nintendo of Japan site below:

@wesleyh - Yes, Nintendo should be blamed for this.

@Wiiloveit - http://release.square-enix.com/na/2008/11/players_help_space_invaders_get_even.html

Ouch.
I wish the game was like LostWinds.

YES, the slump is OVER!
(for one game)

"Not only do you get your first Art Style, but you also finally got your second Strong Bad episode"

It's their third Strong Bad episode.

@Bass XO - All the titles on the left were good!

@Dazza - Very weird. MaBoShi is out everywhere else (at least in Europe and Japan).

I also wish Gyrostarr (and some other games that we got) would come to Europe as well... more catch-up weeks are needed!

Meh week for VC and WiiWare.

When is MaBoShi coming out? I can`t wait anymore!

Sounds interesting... I'll watch this!

Pop-Up Pirate! is coming to Japan on Tuesday for 500 Wii Points.

Hopefully the game will be the same price everywhere else (unlike Pool Revolution: Cue Sports).

@PaulB - Oh really?

@killraven - Pool Revolution: Cue Sports is 500 Wii Points.
EDIT: Well at least our Japanese friends!

YAY, CATCH UP WEEK!
(basically)

@Wiiloveit: From the Wii Menu when you click on the Nintendo Channel icon.

@Wiiloveit - One thing that I noticed from the Nintendo Channel update is that the music doesn't skip anymore on the start screen.

Back on topic, it's nice to see that files can go to the SD card faster!

Here is proof of saving to an SD card faster:

Those are quite interesting screenshots!

I'm thinking of getting this game once it comes out.

I hope MaBoShi will be coming before the end of 2008 at the latest.

@Dazza - Thank you for the update.
Those updated screenshots makes me want to get the game!

Great review Drake!

I think I should pick up the series sometime now. It's getting interesting!

Not interested in these games.
EDIT: Strong Bad interests me now after I saw all those reviews. I'll pick up the episodes by the end of the year (after the games in the comment listed below).

Hopefully we get Space Invaders Get Even or MaBoShi's Arcade (which is way overdue) next week with this Sudoku Challenge! game.

Great review of SIGE Drake!

I am still wishing the "Play from the SD card" news was true. 700 Blocks for this game is a big chunk out of the flash memory.

Pool Revolution: Cue Sports is coming out Tuesday to Japan!
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/wii/wiiware/wcsj/index.html

This game is 500 Wii Points.

I'm going to watch this game.
Hopefully, screenshots will be coming soon!

I think I will pass on this game, doesn't interest me.

This week is decent for us, and I love surprises!

This is the best WiiWare update we've ever seen!

Even though some people think that this is not the best game in the series, Gradius Rebirth is a fine addition to the WiiWare service!

YES!!!!!

This is exciting news!

Corbie, your top 20 list is awesome!

Look's like Corbie is the main editor for Japanese games!

Wow... Arc System Works seems to make a lot of WiiWare games at 500 Wii Points! I'll be keeping my eye on this little racing game!

Very Interesting... Mega Man on paper!

Japan gets this, Europe gets tgat BBC thing, AND WHAT DO WE AMERICANS GET???

I don't watch TV programs that much, so this kind of service doesn't really interest me.

Art Style: Rotohex = instant download!

Another good week for WiiWare!

It's great to see some WiiWare games that have been released in Japan to come to other parts of the world!

@ Angelic Lapras King - Unless Nintendo does the unexpected and release WiiWare games next week!

As for this billiards game, I think I might get it.

I wonder when Toki Tori will be released in Japan?

I think all these games will come in November.

@bboy2970 - Home Sweet Home is 1000 Wii Points

This week's releases for Europe are a bit better.

@ SRPirate - There is one small change. A button called "View Compatible Controllers" is added in the details section of the Wii Shop.

With the severe lack of puzzle titles available for the WiiWare service, it's obviously going to be quite refreshing to see a new entry come to light.

We've seen loads of puzzle games!

Another WiiWare game for Japan, which is awesome!

@Objection_Blaster - It says on Kemco's website that it's coming in 2008 for Japan, but I think that's about it for now.
