Purty.



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

I doubt it will come out on DS. If you can buy it for 5-10 bucks on wii, why would they put out a lesser version for 30 dollars?



You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

Looking very good, I am going to keep my eye on this. If this is the kind of stuff we are going to get from the beginning then we are in for a good thing with WiiWare for sure.

 Portability.

 I've seen DS software for as cheap as $20, too.

Take a look at Eternity's Child. That's also a 2D platformer with an AMAZING art style. I added it in the "Wii games in 2008" thread with LostWinds.

That is VGChartz LONGEST review. And it's NOT Cute Kitten DS

If this and FF:CC:TYKaTPL are what we can typically expect from Wiiware, I'll be extremely happy (and likely broke). Lostwinds looks like a great innovative title, and I hope to see a lot more of those on Wiiware.

Finally a place developers can really experiment with the Wii controls in unusual ways and make some exciting new gameplay innovations.

Yeay, a nice 2.5D game, but how much is going to weight???

Erm.. you mean the file size?

well Wiiware is limited to 40MB I think (or 50MB)

 

as for price, I thought the final fantasy thing had been priced at 1500 points, which is $15 right? (although in UK it works out about £11-12)

WiiWare is definitely starting to look like a viable way of getting games. I had it pegged for endless minigames that use the Wiimote in cool ways but are far too expensive.

Between Lost Winds, which looks highly entertaining and lengthy, and Final Fantasy, we're getting more full games on WiiWare than other systems have.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

 Yeah sorry, I couldn't find the word, here size and weight have the same word, I know it was wrong, but thats all I had in that moment...

Yeah, just 40 MB...
