That's difference between how you and I choose to look at this. It's a Virtual Console release as far as I'm concerned. It's allowing me to get a few really great back games from a previous generation without having to pay through the nose or spend time looking for a good deal on a used game. And frankly since I'm kind of cheap, I'd rather have the standard version of the game for $10 rather than pay $50 or $60 for the same game with prettier graphics.

Should be $20 with HD, then $5 in a sale soon after release. That's how online shops are meant to work.

By the way, everyone who has been playing Smash needs to click and check out this graphic. It's a giant graphic so it's too big to post, but remember when I did that thing with my kid and showed him game boxes and asked him to name the game? This is a little like that. A guy showed his mom and dad all the characters from Smash and asked them their names. A few they knew. A few they were close on. But most.... well it's fucking funny. Check it out.

Edge, I'm sure I know exactly what boss you're on.  In an arena, right?  DS3's problem to me is that it is a little long, but it was still my second favorite behind the instant Classic DS1.



Its the dumb spider....but I figured it out. ...or got lucky enough to beat him.

There's good things in the game also but it just feels thrown together on one hand & focus tested on the other.
I'm well on my way to finishing it at least.

Hey Edge I know you'll appreciate this, Allison Williams' character got her ass eaten out on the HBO show Girls.

Make me wish I watched the show. Nyaa



I never heard of her or the show so I googled her....is she the same girl from espn? Either way, I greatly approve this chowing!!

I kinda get it, I mean I missed out on a few wii games like Kirbys Epic Yarn and The Last Story and I'm sure there is other stuff, so in that respect for £8.99 it would be worth it.

But what the fuck...they could AT LEAST do like Microsoft did with the N64 Rare titles on 360 and bump them up to HD, and make whatever other little tweaks to controls, widescreen etc that they have to, to make them a bit more respectable. It doesn't have to be a straight up remake...look at Perfect Dark on the 360....its a beautiful version of an N64 classic, yet a very simple upgrade. This is what Nintendo should be doing. Not these lazy ass ports.

I am kind of tempted to get Metroid Prime Trilogy though...just being able to launch that from the Wii U menu sounds nice. But again, if this package was bumped up to HD and maybe had redone Gamepad controls? Fuck....sold.

I wouldn't declare it as a lost case just now, but I have to admit it looks a bit generic.  F2P even  Uneasy  Nintendo should have stuck with their chuncky graphical style they do so well, instead of attempting to copy contemporary F2P aesthetics.  I'm trying to determine what it is exactly that I dislike about the style.  I think it's just due to the fact that it isn't considered a big budget game internally.  It's like they're testing the waters instead of going full out with a new IP.  You can clearly see the polygonal makeup of the environment, whereas in a game lik 3D World, everything looked perfectly rounded.

Yeah I'm with you, but Nintendo is using the Wii Mode to be able to play any Wii game. Now they can bypass the menu but you have to assume that it's running in a similar state, where heavy code checks and retweaking don't need to take place. To make them HD would probably require them to work natively on the U architecture in an emulated state, which would require more power, more time, more cost etc.

MS did get Perfect Dark updated and all that but those are just a couple of games. I expect to see a lot of Wii games released on Wii U and this may be the easiest option to do that.

I think it will do allright but I have low expectations. The problem is if it bombs, Nintendo will assume people don't really want new IPs.
