[Jumpman Jr.]

So how is Wii Play? Can't say I've seen anything positive about it.

 

[AniHawk]

Just Sonic for me.

I'm mildly interested in Chulip though.

 

[gutter_trash]

PSWii FTW

SEGA!!!

 

[The Jer]

Doesn't Flow hit the PSN on 2/22 ?

 

[Pureauthor]

Oh shi-

Izuna comes out next week?! I still need to buy FFVIa and Lunar Knights!

Hurry up, summer drought! HURRY UPPPPPPPPP!!!!

IT'S ABOUT TIME.

 

[Aurelius]

IF it finally comes out.

 

[Vexidus]

Anybody know when Raw Danger comes out? I thought it was in feb

 

[XSamu]

Crackdown for me please

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

Tuesday (2/20)

Crackdown, NBA Street Homecourt

January Games Of Unqualified Awesome: Check.
February Games Of Unqualified Awesome: Check.

2 FOR 2 IN 2007. Keep the hustle alive, three six.

 

[BuddyC]

Doesn't Flow hit the PSN on 2/22 ?

It's up there. Check the PS3 section

Anybody know when Raw Danger comes out? I thought it was in feb

I can't find a date more specific than Q2 2007. According to IGN though, the Japanese gets it 2/21.

 

[Kiriku]

Wow, Chulip is actually coming out? Hasn't that game been delayed forever in the US?

 

[The Jer]

It's up there. Check the PS3 section

Oh, I see it now, must be blind.

 

[ghostmind]

That's it for this week... next week is a bunch of undecideds for me...

 

[MrPing1000]

Remember Wii Play is a $5 game with a controller. It really isn't all that.

 

[dock]

Chulip! Whoo! I've had this on pre-order for about two years - I can't believe it's finally coming out! ^o^ I really enjoyed playing it at E3 2004 at the Natsume booth. It's fairly simple but it has a great sense of humour and good game structure. And you go the bathroom to save game.

 

[Fuzzy]

Remember Wii Play is a $5 game with a controller. It really isn't all that.

I really have to wonder what stock will be like for the game since it comes with a Wiimote.

 

[Community Forum]

I really have to wonder what stock will be like for the game since it comes with a Wiimote.

I know. GameStop / EB Games stopped taking preorders on it a month ago.

 

[Wollan]

Wii Play is a very low budget game as you all know. Definitely worth the cost due to the controller (I mean, it's a controller with a game disc) but the game itself will probably just last you 30mins to finish (at max). And then you will probably just revisit a few of those games a couple of times more (in my case it was the shooting, air-hockey and billiards).

 

[jwj442]

I'd rather save $10 and just buy a controller. None of the games look like they'll be that great in a hardcore or social environment.

 

[Ranger X]

yay!

Almost free game with a Wiimote. I like.

 

[RevenantKioku]

No VC games this week?
I gotta hunt down a freaking Classic Controller...

 

[BuddyC]

No VC games this week?
I gotta hunt down a freaking Classic Controller...

There are, I've just been busy this morning. Will update the list itself in a bit...

Kirby's Adventure™ (NES®, 1 player, 500 Wii Points): Not everything is well in Dream Land. For some mysterious reason, the Dream Spring, a magical well that is the reservoir for all the dreams of the citizens of Dream Land, is no longer working. Everyone is being subjected to their worst nightmares every time they go to sleep. Upon reaching the Dream Spring, Kirby finds out that evil King Dedede has stolen the Star Rod, thus depriving Dream Land of the magical energy that feeds its spring. Using 20 unique tricks and the ability to steal enemies' powers by swallowing them, players have to make their way through a horrific land filled with all kinds of nightmares. Recover the broken pieces of the Star Rod and everyone in Dream Land will sleep peacefully once again. Fail and the citizens of Dream Land will be subjected to a lifetime of terrible nightmares.

Ice Climber™ (NES, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): As Popo, players use a trusty mallet to work their way up the mountain. They chip away at the blocks overhead, then jump up through the resulting hole to the mountain's next level. Once Popo reaches the top level, he enters a fast-moving bonus stage in which he can pick up veggies and, hopefully, reach the summit for a big point payoff. Of course, not everyone's supportive of Popo's pastime. Toppies fill Popo's holes, so players must jump through the gaps quickly. It's easy to slip off some of the icy levels, as Polar Bears, Toppies and other ferocious fauna don't want players up there. There are 32 challenging peaks to scale – players can face them alone or with a friend.

Kid Icarus™ (NES, 1 player, 500 Wii Points): In a time when men and gods lived in harmony, the kingdom of Angel Land was ruled by two goddesses: Palutena, the Goddess of Light, and Medusa, the Goddess of Darkness. Unlike Palutena, Medusa despised all humans and enjoyed destroying their crops and turning them into stone. One day, Palutena decided to punish the evil Medusa and banished her after turning her into a hideous monster. But Medusa would not go without a fight. She created an army of monsters and evil spirits and captured Palutena. Players play as Pit, a young angel trapped in the Underworld, and Palutena's only hope. They use a magical bow to retrieve the Sacred Treasures, defeat Medusa and restore peace to Angel Land.

 

[Ranger X]

Wow. That's an update. I'll have to grab Kirby at the very least!

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Definite:

If I can find it:

Kind of need a Wii too I suppose.


When I feel like punishing myself:

[Vexidus]

I believe it's September now ......

=(

ACK! After seeing the cover artwork and then reading this, I don't think I can recover!

 

[dskillzhtown]

Crackdown and NBA Street for me next week. I am really looking forward to both games.

 

[Kobiekun]

As for me, I'll be grabbing:

Chulip (if and when it actually ships)
Virtua Fighter 5 (if and when Sega reissues the high grade sticks and Play-Asia ships one to me)
Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja
Sonic and the Secret Rings (if reviews/opinions are favorable)

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

VF5, Crackdown, and NBA Street for me

 

[Tiktaalik]

Damn when is Metal Slug Anthology coming to PS2?

 

[dirtmonkey37]

Just Crackdown for me. Why? Because sadly, I only have a 360 now, and nothing else (well, putting aside last generation systems).

 

[gutter_trash]

<<<<< if Q*bert is hopping on the 22nd onto PSN, I'm getting that too
