Well, actually the marketing department of Sony Computer Entertainment was a bunch of mindless jerks who were the first against the wall when the Wii arrived

Still no Toki Tori for you?

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #1855 on:** May 26, 2008, 05:37:46 PM »

Yeah, this is a disappointing week for me since I have no interest in Dr. Mario. No Toki Tori, no Protothea, no Gyrostarr, nothing from Nintendo on the VC.

Smoke39 · « **Reply #1856 on:** May 26, 2008, 06:47:58 PM »

I'd kinda like to get Metal Slug, but don't Neo Geo games not work with component cables on the VC? :/

animecyberrat · « **Reply #1857 on:** May 26, 2008, 06:53:18 PM »

Who told you that? I have World Heroes and I only use the component cables and it runs fine for me.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #1858 on:** May 26, 2008, 06:56:31 PM »

I've used Baseball Stars 2 with component cables just fine.

I don't remember where I first heard about it, but here's a thread in the VC-Reviews forum about it:

The one good thing about this week is that between Wii Ware and the VC we got 4 games this week. They may not be games I care much about but we got a good number of them. The grub's not great, but the portions are terrific!

GRRRRR...

I really love Dr. Mario. It was worth the 10 dollar purchase...I really want to know if Family Table Tennis is good...I have to wait for a review of that one.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #1863 on:** May 28, 2008, 03:15:56 PM »

Thank you shammack. My internet was down. So I couldn't update. Has anybody played City Connection? And isn't it a bit redundant to have Metal Slug when it is on Wii and GBA?

And isn't it a bit redundant to have Super Mario Bros when it is on NES, SNES, GBC, GBA, etc

Seriously the whole of Virtual Console makes no sense by that logic.

Fine fine I retract my previous statement.

The VC poll results this month are as follows.
Reader picks

2.Terranigma
3.Super Mario All-Stars

That's ... odd.

But yes, Chrono Trigger is my favorite sixteen bit RPG. It's super-duper awesome.

What is Terranigma?

Terranigma is an SNES RPG by Enix that was never released it America. It got a European release, so it's been fully translated to English, but it's never made it to our shores. It's fairly highly sought after, and from what I understand a pretty good game.

Vudu, I was just watching it to to get a feel for the game. I will probably forget most of it so it will be essentialy new.

I will also look forward Terranigma as well.

I never had Chrono Trigger on SNES, but I had that and the sequel on PS1 and never finished either one. But that was mostly because I didn't own a PS1 I was borrowing my brother-in-laws system and when he 'discovered' that video games are evil, he threw all his games in the trash and I never got to finish it.

Smoke39 · « **Reply #1871 on:** May 28, 2008, 07:55:40 PM »

You can't talk about Terranigma without also mentioning Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia, which are both fairly awesome.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #1872 on:** May 28, 2008, 10:48:10 PM »

Rat why did he think they were evil? A odd thing to think of video games.

animecyberrat · « **Reply #1873 on:** May 28, 2008, 10:49:31 PM »

I'd rather not even attempt to explain it, let's say it is a religious thing but something I am not too sure about.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #1874 on:** May 29, 2008, 12:05:31 AM »

Fair Enough.
