Yeah: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles has pay-to-play elements. Maybe if this game would download faster I'd be able to find out what else you have to pay for! Hopefully it's not some kind of service fee, and is just DLC.

The 2ch kids are saying that Mojipittan is going to have downloadable stages that cost money, too.

Hey there's that red circle everyone+GAF flipped out about. See, it was going to be for DLC all alone.

Is that the game where you have to capture animals by making a fence?
 
WiiWare for America is going to be alot more interesting. But now that we know DLC is coming to Wii it is kind of exciting.

Can't wait for Final Fantasy, Spogs Racing, and LostWinds =D

I see a red Nintendo wi-fi logo on FFCC page, Is it for Pay for Play Or dowloadable contents?

Red icon represents that it's a Pay-And-Play game. Maybe it has DLC?

yep, we have videos but.... Konami missed the opportunity to market the game... it kinda sucks but what can we do =/ and it has to go thru them before we release them...

Well, this does make the lack of DLC in Port Band a little more silly.

We might hear an announcement soon then? Pay to Play was announced only recently.

Agreed. It also makes the lack of an HDD even more horrendous. E3 can't come quick enough because I can't wait to be disappointed.

Me neither. Get with it, Nintendo. Hard drive. Now. VC and WiiWare are the best aspects of your home console this gen, and yet they'll become cumbersome because of the Wii's lack of storage. :/

It should be easy to make one too. Cant they just make a HDD that sits right on the back of the Wii, while plugged into a USB slot in the back.

Why do people keep saying this? Buy an SD card and shove it in the Wii's SD card slot PRESTO - instant 2gb of storage space. If it gets full pop in another one - PRESTO - another 2gb.

Because the games can't be run directly from the SD card, and copying to and from gets obnoxious and time-consuming.

You're the type that prefers CD players to MP3 players, aren't you?

Are there any other games up that didn't get much attention (like our friend from Konami)?

You probably would have to copy them to and from an external HD, too, and it would take the same amount of time, since the encryption process would be the same.

Hey, remember the debate over whether the game was a real game or just a time trial?

Well... real game or just a time trial?

It was basically confirmed before, but it's just a time trial mode. You can see it in the video just now posted that there's seemingly no other option for play.
 
What's this I'm read about "pay to play?"

My friend told me this morning he heard that we'd have to pay for EVERY session of play of WiiWare games. I dismissed it as nonsense. Don't tell me he was right.

It's just DLC that costs money, like any other console. Outside the initial fee for the game, you don't HAVE to pay anything to play it.

Not only was he right, but you will also be automatically charged for every time you waggle the Wii remote on all games in the future, whether or not you're even connected to the internet.

I'm serious, and you should believe me, because I belong to a prestigious videogame website
