ThruSpace looks like something I might download sometime soon.

This is great news! Since my room is too far from our router to have a strong enough signal to stream HD on my PS3, I just watch stuff in SD on my Wii anyways. Glad to see when something useful comes out, since its a bit more convenient.

This 10/10 rating is not overrated one bit. Came home with my copy around 10:30 am...been playing it for over 2 hours, and I still feel like I want to go back and collect things in the first couple worlds. Everything from the art work to the music is so charming...I am not kidding when I say it's my favorite game on the Wii this year.

@WAM2: I just want to say that you, sir...you rock. Your comment made me feel like digging out my old Space Jam VHS

Good review. I am really interested in this game, since I adored the original. However, with quite a few games coming out his month as well as in November, I think I will wait for a price cut.

I think i'd like Wii Party much more than Wii Play, but still not picking it up since Kirby is coming out this upcoming week. ^.

Tempted to pick up Sonic 4 today since it's my day off and I could def have a blast playing it. However, if I am going to pay $15 for a downloaded game, I feel it would be more wise to get an HD version on a console with more hard drive space, like my PS3.

I am more interested in the All-Stars compilation hitting the US than this, but I am happy that you EU get both..lucky!

This great news. I really wish that NA/EU got the game at the same time, but I am just happy we will be getting it at all. I don't see why EU would get it and not us? I am most excited about the history book and CD.

Nice job, Corbie! I agree with your score 100%, it is a perfect 10 in my book. After downloading the game, I was just worried it wouldn't live up to the hype, but in the first few minutes I noticed that the amount of polish and fun were top notch. Anybody who does not have this gem on their DSi menu, is really missing out.

I just got home from work and downloaded Shantae The excitment has built for so long! What really stinks though, is I had maybe an hour or two sleep at the most last night, so I am probably gonna nap before I even play the game...im THAT out of it, at the moment. I am just so freaking excited it's finally arrived!

I remember playing this game...but for the most part, it was McCrap.

Too casual for me, but glad to see families will have a blast.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up, James! I hope it's almost as good as that Shantae soundtrack that just got released.

I am looking forward to Splinter Cell. The words explaining the mission in 3D is gonna be SO cool!

As far as the classic remakes go I want OoT and StarFox for sure.

I am with Dodger on this one. I know a lot of people wanted a Holiday release, but I really don't have the cash right now to buy the 3DS with. By March, I can easily save enough for the portable as well as a plethora of launch titles and VC titles. We have enough great games until then to keep us busy.

This is very exciting to hear, since I gave my Game Boy Color to a friend years ago, and missed it ever since. Also, I hope that when the virtual console on the 3DS starts up, it has the steam that the Wii VC started with (around 3 games a week.)

Just downloaded it, and it is very good and making me extremely anxious for the 4th of Oct. to arrive. I don't think anybody should feel like a jerk for clicking "Get it Free", since the game is more expensive than normal DSiWare games, I see it like a "bonus" they are letting us have.

Hm...not sure what to think about this, because I really was looking forward to the game. 1,500 pts is too much for one episode, but if I end up getting it, I might just buy it on the PS3, since it's got better visuals; at least get a little more bang for my buck...

@WarriorCatFreak: No...it suits you. Assuming you are a warrior as well as a Cat Freak like your avatar implies.

For 1,200 points this game better be BIG. I have MFC, and it's decent, but I don't know if I am going to really plug away and try to beat it before I buy Shantae. Hopefully the prize for just owning it is decent enough.

I was gonna pre-order the game at Gamestop anyways when I go to pre-order Kirby this week, but yeah it seems pretty interesting. I am probably just gonna hang it on my wall with a tack instead of using it for a WiiMote lol.

It's funny because I had been saving 800 points on my DSi for this, but it looked like we might not get it till December or something, so I ALMOST spent them this week. Thank God, I saved those points since Oct. 4 is just around the corner.

Looks pretty challenging and fun! I am really sold on the art style and music, alone.

Despite the mixed reviews from users on the site, NSMB Wii has been one of my favorite games on the Wii in sometime. It totally deserves the top spot.

Little by little I am starting to anticipate quality WiiWare titles. RCR and Fluidity have me really anxious!

Not really interested in any of those four titles, but I LOVE the tweet that Odnetnin posted...maybe we will actually get DK64 around the release of DKC Returns.

I totally agree with this review, a very strong 7. Just downloaded the game on a whim, and I am really glad I did, because this is very pick-up-and-play much like Pop Island: Paperfield. Nothing beats the excitement of finishing a level JUST in the nick of time...seriously on level 10 or 11, I finished with 0.01 left on the clock.

Meh. She doesn't kick a** and take names like Reggie does.

I still have 1,000 Nintendo points on my DSi, so I could buy 10 Second Run and still have points left over for Shantae (being a scrooge and saving my points). Aero the Acrobat 2 got a good review on the site, but eh, not sure if I am in the mood for a platformer, since I am playing Ufouria, at the moment.

I love a good challenge, but if the game is so hard that I get frustrated, put the controller down, and never play again...well, that's a huge problem. Regardless, I think the game will be a lot of fun, and I hope we see it soon (It is a Nicalis game, so I won't hold my breath.)

Recently on a few podcasts I have heard decent things about the game. When it gets cheaper, I really want to pick it up, or if it's short maybe just rent it for a week. It's great that it has such wonderful audio, because to me, a survival horror's audio is 90% of the reason you get so into it.

I actually saw a user on Youtube post a video explaining this awhile ago, and luckily I was already past that point. I could imagine how upsetting it would be to get to that point in the game and realize that all of your efforts were in vain. I have actually blown through and beaten the game, and was surprised that I didn't run into that bug "by accident". Great game overall, even with this somewhat crippling bug.

Wow, it comes here on my birthday...not sure how interested I am, though.

Melee is so great! Even to this day, I change it up a bit, and switch between both Melee and Brawl (and when I feel like going old-school I pop on the original on my VC menu). I think I liked some of the levels in Melee more than in Brawl; always thought Poke Floats was really cool.

I am getting a flight to the UK in the morning so I can watch this vid.

A true gentleman always wears a top hat for his special anniversary.

@EggMiester: Yes, while some of the puzzles can easily stump the player, I think that at the same time, it makes the game extremely rewarding. I remember in the other two games, there were times were I spent quite some time on just one puzzle, but getting it right on that first try gave me a feeling of accomplishment that I don't usually get with most games.

Picking up my copy in about an hour. Glad to know you guys enjoyed it!

Wow, I love Ghostbusters...seeing them butcher that song made me want to run over them with my very own Ecto-1.

Congrats to the winners! I had bought a 2,000 points card and picked up Ufouria: The Saga, and saved the rest for AYIM, but didn't want to buy it yet, JUST in case I won the contest...looks like I can go d/l it now

Never heard of it, but Machinairium looks like an awesome point-and-click adventure...count me in.

I agree, Pixelman. I can't believe I got this game for $5 new, because I would of gladly paid full price for this gem, its soooo fun.

Oh look! It's "Bit & Punishment!" While Runner is my favorite in the series so far, this game looks fan-freaking-tastic, and may even be the most challenging yet.

They should call it, "And Yet It Flows". Seriously though, looks like something I want on my Wii for sure.

Doc Brown looks more like Dr. Wily in that character art.

I have played Trials HD, and its amazing. If this is just as fun (only more cartoony), I am buying it on day 1.

Glad to see you guys gave it a high score. Before picking it up today I was REALLY worried, since the reviews were so mixed. I am still in the begging parts of the game, but I really love it. Sure it feels different, but I am glad to have something like this after three (great) Prime games.

I could care less about this crappy update since Metroid: Other M is out tomorrow
