Oh, just to repeat myself and get in on the awesome recapping, TheFleece was totally awesome. He got me both a Commodore 64 classic Twer Toppler, which is surprisingly solid and challenging, but also forgiving (in that touching enemies only bounces you down the tower, doesn't instakill you hardcore-like). He also got me Detana Twinbee, a neat vertical scrolling shooter whose easy-mode I can actually beat! YES! Also, co-op and a pretty interesting power-up system, and the coolest thing ever: auto-targeting homing ground-attack bombs! My brother and I both played it, though we realized that the Twinbee from our childhood must've been a previous game in the series.
Oh, and also, Vudu surprised me with a gift of Bonsai barber. Today I tried it out and it was... awesome. So awesome my brother and I were inspired to get a little creative and "blue light" everyone. I love games where you can post screenshots to the Wii Message Board...
