Nintendo Downloads for 6/8/09. (Swords, Soldiers and Mini-Marios!)
Cool! Been waiting for Swords & Soldiers for months now. I'm going to have to go blackmail someone into getting me some Wii points now.
And for some unearthly reason, that Fish 'em Up game kind of looks good. If that were a couple points cheaper I could have considered that as an impulse buy. Very curious to see what kind of reviews it gets.
Swords and soldiers is suppossed to be really good.
Is Swords and Soldiers like Castle Crashers? If so, I'm buying immediately.

Best thing to do is read the Eurogamer review
Avoid Mario vs Donkey Kong at all costs.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobile
i bought swords and soldiers 2-3 weeks ago when it was made available on the EU virtual console but i haven't played it yet. it looks nice and colourful though.
i also agree that the fish em game also looks strangely appealing.
