Nice to see that the VC game has lock-on technology. This means I'm buying the VC version over the DS compilation since I already own some of the Sonics on VC.

Also that the Lock-On feature is not present on Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection (the producers said they didn't have enough time to program this and they would have had to take a few games out to get it done in time).

Some notes on this weeks games:

North America is the last region to get Sonic & Knuckles.
WarMen Tactics appears to be a port of a iPhone/iPod Touch game
Prehistorik Man appears to be a port of a SNES game (the same way Rayman got ported to DSiWare)

Yay for the next Phoenix Wright, I'm just about done with the first one. But why can't I D/L the 5th chapter?
The 5th chapter isn't going to be made available until after the third game comes out. It's not a big deal--storewise it has nothing to do with the rest of the 3-game series. If anything, it's more of a transition chapter between T&T and Apollo Justice.

OK, I was a little worried that it was only available for a limited time as a bonus for early adopters and I had already missed the window. How much are the extra chapters supposed to cost?

TJ Spyke · « **Reply #3202 on:** February 16, 2010, 10:00:05 AM »

I think Capcom said the extra chapter will be 100 Wii Points.

Stratos · « **Reply #3203 on:** February 16, 2010, 08:48:17 PM »

That is a very reasonable price. I was expecting and willing to pay 200-300 for them and afraid they were going to gouge us at 500. Nice to see a very reasonable and awesome price for them.

No virtual console game this week.

LAME.

They're telling everyone to save their points for MM10 next week.

Right?

Really? That sorta surprised me. I was thinking more of an early 3D cellphone game.

And yowza. The game's setup, which basically consists of choosing when to pop out of cover and return fire, is so limited it might have been a better experience on a cellphone where the smaller scope would be novel.

But the real party foul? Only five levels... five levels which make the game's story feel only 1/3rd done. Look, I can handle a bad game, but a bad game that doesn't even wrap up its story?!?!?

Maybe it's planned to be an episodic series and they hope you are riveted by the games plot and genre so you will buy the future episodes

I feel pain. Pain and shame.

Don't feel too bad. Know that your experience could save hundreds of others from a similar fate. You're like a martyred hero!

I'm going to pick up that Spanish game because I'm learning Spanish and I've always wanted to have a DS game to help me quiz myself on words.

broodwars · « **Reply #3214 on:** March 08, 2010, 07:36:22 PM »

If this wasn't the censored original SNES version of FF IV, I might have actually bought this version because I'm somewhat fond of the game.

I picked up Max and the Magic Marker. It's pretty fun, and I'd have to say it's actually a little closer to what I was hoping for from Drawn To Life. I think the developers of the game... (I don't recall who made it

,) would do well to work with 5th Cell to implement a bit more solid gameplay with their unique ideas.

It's from a Danish studio called Press Play. According to their website, they only have 9 employees.

that Baby guy · « **Reply #3217 on:** March 10, 2010, 06:10:43 PM »

Thanks. Press Play really made things very fun if you play the game the right way, but things can be tedious due to some of it's collect-a-thon nature. It's very odd how well speed and proficiency drawing for puzzles mixes in with speedy platforming, but when you have to go out of your way to collect a secret orb, it's just time-consuming after a while. It was fun, initially, so I'm going to chalk a bit of it up to fatigue related to playing too much of the game in too small a time span, but it's still more fun to rush through the stage without concern for item collection.

Does anyone know if the last Phoenix Wright game is coming out soon?

vudu · « **Reply #3221 on:** March 15, 2010, 11:24:29 AM »

I think Capcom said they were spreading them out by about a month each. The last one came out mid-February, so I would expect the next one sometime in the next couple weeks.
