So no Super Smash Brothers? Oh well, I guess it will be a month. Though they already missed the perfect opportunity to release it, as April was the 10th anniversary of it. I had actually forgotten about that... I need to do something to celebrate.

I was referring to how WiiWare World tended to rate games lower than other sites do. Lots of people view 6s and 7s as poor or mediocre but WWW viewed/views them as OK/good games. I'm I conveying that to you right? I would think you understand what I mean because you frequent that site as well.

I know they SAY that but their ratings still follow the traditional distribution and on most games they're the highest rated review around.

Good point, I suppose. I haven't gone there a whole lot recently so I'm probably just spouting off what I remember.

Though I think IGN rates most of them way too low on average. Their WW reviews really bug me. Not just because of the low number, but sometimes it feels they don't properly review then or spend time with them for the sake of getting the review publish the same day the game comes out.

Wii is successful in the USA. Nintendo will not release popular games right away.

Wow, another Mini-Golf game. Is this one actually worth downloading?

KDR_11k · « **Reply #2885 on:** June 23, 2009, 04:18:59 AM »

It's from the Family series of games which so far managed to botch even the most foolproof designs (air hockey controlled by the d-pad instead of the IR...). Most likely it's garbage.

vudu · « **Reply #2886 on:** June 23, 2009, 01:54:23 PM »

Anyone get NEVES Plus? It looks like it could be lots of fun provided the controls aren't ass.

*sigh* The hunt for a good mini-golf game continues. Honestly, you'd think someone would make a good one, especially in the face of all the dull traditional golf games that have been made.

Wii Play's air hockey was based on IR too.

This does not bode well for Mario/Metroid/Zelda/Resort.

Yes, I meant that the Family air Hockey game DIDN'T use IR and used the d-pad instead. I have no idea what they were thinking.

A new game came out, called bit boy (Well I think it is out now).

Well, Bit Bow is a hard game to describe.... a pic is worth a 1000 words...

[jpg]http://www.wiinintendo.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/BitBoyScreenshots.jpg[/jpg]

Basically, you play the same pacman like game in 6 diffrent bits.... 4,8,16,32,64,128.... I love the concept, but don't think the game looks that good... you should look at the youtube vid for "Bit Boy"...

Well, the pic link didn't work, so if you are still interrested, here is the youtube link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae0_C3Cjwy0&feature=player_embedded]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae0_C3Cjwy0&feature=player_embedded]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae0_C3Cjwy0&feature=player_embedded

Bit Boy was announced, not released. It's made by B Plus, the people behind Plättchen and Niki who use innovation as their excuse for having their games suck.

That was an amazing description of B-Plus. I get a kick out of the people on Nintendo Life of vehemently defend that company.

Snipper, to post images you need to post "img" and "/img" in brackets, not jpg. Also, I'm not sure, but from looking at the link to the image you wanted to post, it might be a direct link. Direct links aren't allowed on this site because that is stealing bandwidth from other sites. What I do to avoid this is I have a PhotoBucket account where I store copies of images I want to share and then link to those.

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #2895 on:** June 29, 2009, 12:47:27 PM »

It's part of the Silver Star series from Silver Star Japan and Agetec. We already got Silver Star Chess a few weeks ago.

Ah thanks TJ for letting me know.

Still no Super Smash Brothers?

What do I have to do, start one of those pointless signatures which states "Not changing this signature until Super Smash Brothers is released on the North American Virtual Console"?

I thought you didn't buy VC games.

I don't. I need an opening for an unofficial Super Smash Brothers Brawl Wi-Fi night.
