Interesting... every single one of my Turbografx games is being listed as "Updated". Anyone know what the updates are for? Is it possible they've fixed the blurry picture quality?
Will try downloading one later to see what changes have been made & report back if no-one else gets there first.
Can't say for certain. I tested Dragon's Curse out and I thought it looked a little bit cleaner. I'm prone to being wrong however.Originally Posted by Cosmonaut X

Probably a better way to test the picture quality is R-Type and/or Ninja Spirit. Dragon's Curse is a bit too "clean" for a really accurate test.
What's the news about mii channel?are they upgrading it?
Australia recently got all TG games Europe has, with the exception of Devil's Crush and Drop Off. So all those games have updates which have something to do with that.Originally Posted by Cosmonaut X

Hm. Just tried updating R-Type and it downloaded in a a couple of seconds & appears to have made absolutely no difference to the game. Ah, well.
Noooooooo! My dream of playing in the original resolution is ruined again :(Originally Posted by Cosmonaut X

FUCK YOU HUDSON. Fix this shit. tks.
I had totally forgotten about Galaga 88/90. The original is one of my all time favorites, but I have a soft-spot for these kind of remixes.
Did they mention mii channel specificly?Originally Posted by BrandNew
Yep same here.
It's pretty much a certainty that Check Mii Out is about to go up. Woot.
I was obviously wrong in my conclusion.Originally Posted by Bluemercury

But still though, we'll probably be getting that channel in the next few weeks. I think someone said something about what the parental controls for this update entails. Something about receiving content from other users online (moreso than messages).
OH SHIT! Look what was just uploaded to the US server (Note: These are images of upcoming games they aren't up yet):
Oh another:

In defense of Somnid, I haven't seen him to be a man who misleads. Also those all look like title screen pics which is what they used to always upload anyway (although the res of the SitD pic looks a little strange).
Well I see this ground has been pretty well-covered. I'll just be standing over here.Originally Posted by BrandNew

It's blury, but the caption says "Shining in the Darkness" (the sequel to "Shining Force", which is already on the VC).Originally Posted by BrandNew

Again I will reiterate for those who don't understand so there is absolutely no confusion: These games have their shop images uploaded early, they aren't out yet but there is a good chance of seeing them on Monday (no guarantees though).
Metroid and Super Metroid will come around the release of Metroid Prime 3... it makes too much sense.
Believe people! The time is at hand!! :D :D

Bought Waverace 64. Still a sweet game to this day.
Fantastic, Super Metroid. One of the Quartet of Sidescrolling SNES Awesome, along with Yoshi's Island, Kirby Super Star, and Donkey Kong Country 2. Just two remaining after SM hits.
I just checked as well, those three are indeed on the server.
Back to games appearing on the server early please?

i've been refreshing awaiting your celebratory meltdown, sharp
Such a cocktease. I haven't played Super Metroid for close to a decade.
Also Metroid NES would be handy, the port of Metroid included with Zero Mission is shit.

Who's going to make the official thread? When it comes out I mean. Not now. The title should be something like "The OFFICIAL No GAFer Left Behind Super Metroid Campaign: Time to Turn on your Wii."Originally Posted by beelzebozo

You know. Or something.
they should include metroid nes as a downloadable preorder bonus.
When the game becomes available Nintendo should automatically deduct eight dollars from every Wii owner's credit card and install Super Metroid on their Wii. You know, in case they didn't know it was out. Actually maybe they should just deduct the money preemptively and then they can make with the game later.Originally Posted by beelzebozo

Edit: Or WAIT maybe it was included in the launch price of the Wii! It's like getting Super Metroid for free!

Yeah, I guess you're right, they don't save your credit card number.Originally Posted by PepsimanVsJoe
No
or issue a public apology for the lava pit on the sides of ridley's boss room in metroid nes, which were nearly impossible to jump from if you fell
Well obviously that's why you don't fall. Doesn't get much clearer than that.
Let's hope PAL gets Super Metroid and WaveRace64. ;p
I wonder why Nintendo uploaded these images? It's been almost 6 months since they uploaded images more than a day in advance (the last time we got them before Monday was back in February, like they finally figured out what we were doing).
Considering that you already have Metroid I'm pretty sure you're at least getting Super Metroid. Probably before we do. Super Metroid for PAL regions this Friday BELIEVE.Originally Posted by Furoba

Or maybe someone's on vacation, but anyway.
Hey Pepsiman: What was wrong with the Zero Mission NES emulator? It was the same solid emulator as the NES Classics games.
