NINTENDO DOWNLOAD: WHETHER AT HOME OR OUT AND ABOUT, NINTENDO'S DOWNLOADS MAKE FOR GREAT FUN
Feb, 22, 2010
Let's say you're relaxing at home, but something doesn't seem quite right. Maybe your house has ghosts. Clearly you need to get GhostSlayer, with its Wii MotionPlus accessory functionality, to figure out how to deal with them. Or maybe your house has a mouse. Mouse House puzzles seem the logical choice for you. Maybe you just need to get out of the house and try some fresh air with Family Go-Kart Racing. If it seems a bit brighter than usual outdoors, that's probably because Aura-Aura, the star of Aura-Aura Climber, has fallen out of the sky. While you're out having fun, take and share some crazy pictures of your friends and family with Faceez, or spend a few relaxing hours directing flights with Flight Control. And while you're out there, you might want to spend some time helping a little boy recover his lost pet goldfish, Flipper.

toythatkills said:Flight Control seems pricey.
Tell that to Nintendo of Europe, they've released no VC games in FIVE weeks this year so far.radcliff said:With a seemingly lackluster release list for WiiWare and DSiWare, you would think this would be a good time to release either Megaman 4 or Castlevania: Rondo of Blood for VC (or any VC game for that matter).
You say that now, but little do you know that they come up with the name of the press release first by pulling words from a hat, and then find game that go with the words.Stumpokapow said:Also can I just say that the whole "get ready to super mario kart your ninja turtles with kirby in gameloftworld" title / lede paragraph format for their press releases continues to get stupider and stupider?
I preordered all the copies, so they are out of them to sell. You can buy one from me for $89.99 USD + Shipping. Yes, I do realize they are a downloadable game, but this does not change the facts.MoxManiac said:What the fuck, where the fucking fuck is fucking Mega Man 4?
nincompoop said:Mouse House looks like a pretty spiffy Lolo clone, although the developer's track record doesn't exactly inspire much confidence.
To be fair, they did that for a period last year, too, and back then they didn't have as much Wiiware content to fill in the gaps, either. At least there's quite a bit of Wiiware stuff coming out currently.Capndrake said:Tell that to Nintendo of Europe, they've released no VC games in FIVE weeks this year so far.
Hmm, yeah, looks like it.heringer said:This GhostSlayer uses M+, no? I'm curious to see if it's at least decent.
After the beginning of the blurb I skipped the rest, but 600 points for something to do with my MotionPlus that isn't Wii Sports Resort might be worth it.Enjoy the thrill of slashing ghosts and vaporizing them by swinging your Wii Remote controller and experience sword-fighting game play at a new level of realism by using Wii MotionPlus accessory (this game can be played with or without Wii MotionPlus).

Somnid said:But I'm still somewhat expecting something about DD to come out of that media event this week. The rare no-VC week showing up on this of all weeks seems a little coincidental in any case. I do remember that Japan had no games the Tuesday the week VCA was announced.
Should be evident by tomorrow night if this is the case.

Does anyone know a good Metacritic like site for WiiWare and Virtual Console games? I just got a 2000 point card for a gift, and while I know 1000 of that is MM9, I'm trying to figure out where to spend the other 1000. So... many... good... choices...

Mafro said:Yup.
Stumpokapow said:dude wait like two weeks and get the good-looking gladiator game
The game will not support MotionPlus despite earlier reports that it would. The High Voltage guys told me that's because it didn't make sense to offer more precise motion control for the right hand, while leaving the player's left hand with the default motion sensitivity of the Nunchuk.

He's talking about Rage of the Gladiatordonny2112 said:600 points.
Did they change Tournament of Legends to use Motion+? When it was first announced, they weren't going the Motion+ route with the game.
Edit:
Apparently not. From Stephen Totilo,

Stumpokapow said:I'm not talking about tournament of legends, i'm talking about rage of the gladiator, which does support M+, looks MUCH better than this, and will cost at most 1000 points.
