There have been some prolonged game droughts on Nintendo's little white console. What is happening in the last month or so is crazy. There are so many games being released which I want to check out, to say the least. But I'm finding myself indecisive in even buying them. Here's a list of some which come to mind:
1. Silent Hill - Shattered Memories (sorry gg, still haven't got this)
2. Fragile Dreams - Farewell Ruins of the Moon
3. Red Steel 2
4. Endless Ocean 2 (i can really feel the hatred of teh gg now)
5. Tatsunoko vs Capcom (this I actually did buy just before the flood)
and coming just around the corner:
6. Sakura Wars: So Long My Love
7. No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
8. Rune Factory: Frontier
9. Monster Hunter Tri
and I could even include...
10. Super Mario Galaxy 2
11. Sin and Punishment 2
12. Trauma Team
13. Metroid: Other M
I won't even bother with the games on the Virtual Console and Wiiware as this list would just get too long but there's plenty of great content there too. Somehow i'm tempted to wait for all of them to get down to hobo bin price level but then i feel bad because these are all efforts I'd like to show my support for. Who'd have thought too many good games would be a bad thing
i think all those games with the exception of galaxy 2 will be cheap soon enough. actually i just remembered that amazon deal on galaxy which means that is already cheap before it's released.
i want cave story as well. haven't bought anything from the wii shop in some time. other m is one i have some reservations about, but mainly because i hold most metroid games in extremely high esteem so the expectations are very high
Some games like NMH 2, Little Kings Story and Red Steel 2 have enough 9/10 reviews to be qualified as great. Even Endless Ocean 2 does. Your dilemma is just a taste thing right? Like Monster Hunter 3 looks really high quality but I'm not that interested in it.
Rune Factory is a game that will give you approximately 60+ hours if you get it. A lot of those other games probably won't give you half of that. I'm not saying that's necessarily a pro or a con, just that if you get sucked in you won't have time for much else.
That being said, along with Silent Hill I think are the ones that are going to get the smallest shipped numbers and are most likely to sell out and and ultimately will be the toughest ones to track down later. You might be able to put Fragile Dreams in that mix too.
yep, that would be really good if my 2Mb connection was good enough. for all the talk about online, i can't say that i've experienced anything overly compelling so far (not being into online FPSs i guess doesn't help) so it would be good to get a taste of that.
hopefully online will be unified for NA and EU though something tells me it will be region-locked. guess, having a region-free wii means i could get the NA version
Is the only one on the list I have not got or pre-orded yet (of the ones I plan to get). I've completely backed out of Fragile. EO2 interests me a lot, not because of GG's boosterism, but because of Mekere. If she is so dedicated to the game she is willing to come here it must be truly amazing.
