I can understand MARI0's comment, but like to disagree. I played it as well and friends had a go as well. It showed that enjoying the game is really all about the correct setup. While I didn't have any problems and the game felt natural, the others found it to be awkward and unresponsive. We sat together, but the difference was that I had a window behind me. This made us play around with the set upsome more and it seems the initial calibration isn't even that important, as long as you have a bright room/background and don't extent your arms completely (=camera sees face as huge blob).
Once the controls work the game is incredibly addictive. Really one of a kind.
I checked and the UK topics and recommendations are different from what you posted ("For the whole family", "Hidden Gems", "Brain Teasers", "New Game, Old School"). Also about 10 VC titles are included in the lists here (clicked on the page title and there were more listed). The press thing and the news on the shop said it will be updated weekly... maybe NL could look into this?
Well, you know, 8.8% means more than 10 million. You think that's bad numbers? That's only 50% MORE than the PSP sold in Japan since launch in 2004. Would you please explain where you get the idea that this would be a bad outlook? It kind of seems you saw the post on kotaku and took it for granted including the questionable conclusions they made. Nintendolife should deliver better.
Also, considering that's a survey based on nothing, for a system noone knows anything about but it's code name, that's an amazingly high anticipation level.

Re: NA Wii Shop Channel Updated
I was wondering why this didn't get mentioned, since this update was described in the EU press release posted by Sean last week: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2010/04/nintendo_download_23rd_april_2010_eu=
Seems it got overlooked.

@TwilightV:
Do you have a page of your own?

Re: Review: Nostalgia (DS)
I honestly never heard of this one before. And a 9 to boot... I wonder if Etrian Odyssey 2 will ever make it to Europe.
Re: Competitions: Mario & Sonic at the Winter Olympics (Update)
Is it just me or is there a typo in the answers to this competition?
Re: Competitions: Halloween with The Three Musketeers: One for All!
As a long time lurker I now registered, so consider these competitions a success. Need to find an avatar, too.
