Just to remember, I recommend Bonsai Barber, it's a fun game just to pass the time and play a few minutes a day. But fun indeed.

 Will do guys, and thanks for keeping them coming. I'm planning on re-adding the VC games starting tomorrow (I got in a bit of a funk from the random erasure), but I'll add in the WiiWare recs first.

And has anyone from a PAL region played Swords and Soldiers yet?



Around the Network

Alright, WiiWare is now back up to speed. I'll be updating DSiWare next, then trying to retackle Virtual Console, before finally moving on to making this whole mess readable.

Which brings me to my next questions: first, what do you guys think of the format? Is it too big? Should I eliminate the shovelware games, and thus make this whole thread more of a "best of" type of thing? Doing this would allow me to do more with each title (including having a pic that's actually see-able...), but it would involve removing at least 4/5 of the titles. On the other hand, that might be a good thing, which is why I'm bringing this question up in the first place. Basically, would you prefer depth or width?

Second, I'm planning on adding "tables" later on that summarize which games are liked, which aren't, how much they cost, how many players they have, etc. Is that a good or bad idea?

Third, does anyone have any idea how to back up forum posts? I'd hate for the VC thing to happen again, especially since I have no idea what caused it.

Thanks in advance everyone, and let me know if you have any other comments or issues: this is just as much your thread as it is mine.



Good luck with re-adding the VC. I think it was a jealous mod that erased your VC work!

Thanks!

And I always did think that Onyxmeth harbored some secret envy....



I like Fun! Fun! Minigolf for three reasons:

1) Fun
2) Fun
3) The bitch in yellow makes me angry (in my pants)



WHERE IS MY KORORINPA 3

I am so linking to your review!



i'm diggin bubble bobble plus!, best wii ware release since bit trip beat.

Honestly i've never played Majora's Mask, but i gave it a try, and wow, i'm floored, i think its the best zelda 2nd to ocarina, so much better than TP, running at 480p and the game plays very similar to ocarina, the world feels so alive, i love this game.

Glad to hear that Bubble Bobble lived up to expectations. I've always been a fan, but the DS version did a lot to kill my enthusiasm. Anyhow, I'll add your recs.

And welcome to the world of Majora's Mask! Always glad to have another fan on board.

Space Harrier – Virtual Console Arcade
Experience SEGA's classic shoot 'em up in its original arcade glory, and without the coins! Run and fly through colourful alien worlds, blasting waves of enemies and gigantic bosses to rack up that all-important high score.


Nintendo DSiWare
The following new Nintendo DSiWare release is now available:

Space Harrier. That's not too shabby. And an Artstyle game. Solid release week overall for both territories.



Today's the day Final Fantasy IV: The After comes out. It's episodic, but I *really* hope they bundle in multiple episodes: I'm not paying $45+ for a cell phone port, no sir no way.
