I loved these types of games as a kid (on paper). Might try it out, waiting on the review first of course. 700 points seems kind of steep and an odd price point.
I'd love a NL shirt, as long as it is a NL shirt and not a Super NES controller with NintendoLife wrote on it. I would get that hoodie of theirs if it weren't for that.
I was 1 point off on my guess of a 7. I'll be downloading this and EWJ1 on my next credit card purchase of points. Waiting until after the new year to see what they have planned for the next few weeks.
The sprites and attacks in these games are not very good in my opinion. Miracle World is the one I've played and I like it none whatsoever. This game has a good concept (Shinobi World), but I hate the sprites and attacks.
I love the art in this game. If anyone is going to get this I'd like to throw out there that the complete Alpha collection for PS2 is on Amazon for 18 dollars. The second seller has it for 10, new. That includes 5 games I believe. Just a heads up.
@20: Almost like it's an American based site, even though its not. lol Looks like there are more American commenters as well. Could also mean we have big mouths though
I was going to buy this, but with a 4 out of 10 and poor controls I will wait til I have some money to blow on something not worth the money. Thanks for the review.
If they were going to do anything, I wish they would have a TV cable for your DS. Unless there is one I don't know about. They should stop their trickery though.
I'm getting this when I get off work in the morning. I might buy two copies and keep one in its shrink wrap, looks like one of those RPGs that will be worth 2 to 3 times as much in 5-10 years.
Nintendo DSi sold worldwide: 6.68 million (as of June 30, 2009)
I think the big N's plans are to get all the money you can from a system then move on to a different version of that system as soon as you think it's possible.

Does look like a less colorful Power Stone.

Re: Nintendo Download: Rayman, Notebooks, Stress Busting and Ninjas! (US)
@Mach-X: 6 dollars that could'ave been used on a better game. Cheers
Re: Review: Happy Holidays: Christmas (WiiWare)
Wow. 500 points for this lump of coal. 505 games needs to stop taking advantage of people who don't know what they are buying.
Re: Ball Fighter Coming to DSiWare on Monday
@6 I took it as fighting with balls, which sounds funner

They aren't kidding there.
Re: Review: Castle of Shikigami III (Wii)
Beautiful looking game. I wish these games weren't so bad on my nerves or I'd try it out. I suck majorly at any shmup.
Re: Review: The Combatribes (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)

Re: Review: Stunt Race FX (Super Nintendo)
Great game. I rented this game once a month at least when I was young.
Re: Review: Christmas Clix (WiiWare)
It's not that its christmasy or kiddy looking. It just looks like something I could get free legally on my PC instead of giving up 10 dollars for.
Re: Review: Christmas Clix (WiiWare)
You're right, but if someone's opinion is it looks horrible then that is what they think. It's not a fact.
Re: Review: Christmas Clix (WiiWare)
@WiiCool: Opinions aren't wrong. I think it looks horrible as well.
Re: Impressions: Max & the Magic Marker
This game looks gorgeous. Sounds like this or Cave Story will be the next wiiware game I spend money on.

Re: Miyamoto: I Wanted To Patent Jumping In Games
@Sean: After I made a comment about that I figured that would end up being the case, so I take back my lol.
Re: Miyamoto: I Wanted To Patent Jumping In Games
Very smart man, even if he didn't follow through
Re: Review: Super Mario Kart (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
I was thinking a 7, but I respect your opinion
Re: Nintendo Blocking Third Party Releases On Virtual Console?
Re: Super Mario Kart Hits Virtual Console on Monday
Woo Hoo! Yippie! Now you have 5 weeks to live up to those big words Nintendo. Don't disappoint again
Re: myNotebook Applications Get Release Dates
Are all the colors as bright as that blue is. Kinda hurts my eyes with the brightness and the uncoolness of that color of blue.
Re: New Super Mario Bros. Wii Strategy Video
The game looks awesome, CANT WAIT. The title of the video made me laugh.
@pie4prez: I didn't know people still shopped at K-MART
Re: DS XL Promo Footage Shows Off Generous Proportions, Family-friendly Nature
If I were to get a DSi it would be this one since I do have problems with my vision, but I still see no point in an upgrade.
Re: Competitions: Do you feel lucky, punk?
aww : ( congrats winners
Re: First Impressions: New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Thanks for the first impressions. Makes it even harder to wait.
Re: Talking Point: How Does The DSi LL Compare To Rival Handhelds?
The actual new handheld console from Nintendo is looking further away or closer, I am really not sure lol
Re: It's Official: Big-Screen DSi LL is Confirmed
If they were going to do anything, I wish they would have a TV cable for your DS. Unless there is one I don't know about. They should stop their trickery though.
Re: Competitions: Win a DSi and Nostalgia!
@53: It's in the text of the review on this very site. I think this was a test to see who actually reads the reviews lol.
Re: Competitions: Win a DSi and Nostalgia!
I went to buy this at wally world this morning when I got off work. Noone was working in electronics so I couldn't get it. Maybe this is why
Re: First Impressions: Wheelspin
Publisher in America was Deton8
Re: Review: Nostalgia (DS)

Re: Japan to Receive Widescreen DSi
All the different physical makeovers they do to their handhelds and they haven't done anything to the Wii, except change its color.
Re: Review: Bonk 3: Bonk's Big Adventure (Virtual Console / TurboGrafx-16)
