eShop Release List (Updated Every Thursday)

Mr E

New version of Bubble Bobble is out now on WiiWare.

Majoras mask is such a great game, past the second temple myself. I still have to clear Twilight princess. Ive never cleared any Zelda game. I find the OOT requirement for getting Epona a bit much.

This has probably been posted before but it gives a list of upcoming games (no release dates unfortunately).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Virtual_Console_games_(PAL_region)

The original (and still my favourite) Mario Kart is in there as in Pilotwings. It does still all seem a bit half-arsed though, surely this is still a potential goldmine in the right hands?!?

Retr0gamer

There's a lot of games there that got ERSB rated and thats what the list is based n. However some games are cluster****s because of legal issues. Pilotwings is probably one and has been on that list for ages. Mario Kart uses a DSP1 chip which I'd say nintendo hasn't bothered to emulate more than likely. I think the best case in point is Axelay. It was released over a year ago in America and japan but still hasn't been released here in europe because the publishing rights belong to some obscure and defunct publisher so it probably will never be released here.

Is there anyway to bypass the region locking to use the US store like how psn you just make a US account with virtual credit card?

Retr0gamer

I don't think so and I think if you can there's problems because your region gets locked in the console.

Mr E

*cough* *cough* .... damn, this thread got dusty. There are cobwebs on the cobwebs.

For those who still have Wiis, its time to dust them off. Pilotwings is out on Thursday night.

Oh sweet

The Wii is getting powered up for the first time in ages!!

Retr0gamer

Nice. Pity we haven't got pilotwings 64 because I still have never played it.

Gummy Panda

America gets SNES Super Mario Kart tomorrow (800 points), still no release date for Europe, but hopefully won't be too much longer

Phoenix Wright was released on Wiiware yesterday... Looking forward to playing the cheesy soundtrack LOUD!

zero86r

Megaman 10 hitting the Wii Store on the 1st of March! 1000 pts

Mr. K

Super Mario Kart is out Friday April 2nd, for 800 points.

Mr E

I'm on 40 posts per page on boards, and the top post on this page is from 18-11-2008. That's a bit depressing really!

I'm going to try and revive this thread for a bit and see what happens.
Firstly, its been renamed to cover DSiWare and WiiWare games too.

WiiWare:
Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising
Kung Fu Funk: Everybody is Kung Fu Fighting!

Virtual Console
Nothing this week.

DSiWare
5 in 1 Solitaire
Soul of Darkness
3d Space Tank
4 Travellers - Play French

I'm still waiting for Cave Story to appear on WiiWare, but I did grab Soul of Darkness this morning for the DSi (500 points). Its a Castlevania clone (and so close in graphics, style, enemies, puzzles and everthing else that it probably made Konami's lawyers sit up and say WTF?). Its a very good game, and it has been well received too. For a fiver, you can't go wrong.

Mr E

Not very good this week.... I don't know why they aren't churning out 3 or 4 VC releases every week on the Wii. The last C64 release was February 2009?!

DsiWare
Pop Island - Paperfield
World Poker Tour: Texas Hold 'Em
Crazy Pinball

WiiWare
Girlfriends Forever: Magic Skate
Arcade Sports: Air Hockey, Bowling, Pool, Snooker

Virtual Console
Aero The Acrobat (SNES)

Mr E

Another dud week I'm afraid.

WiiWare
Dive: The Medes Islands Secret
Family Pirate Party

Virtual Console
Nothing

DSiWare
Pop Island Paperfield.

Retr0gamer

Virtual Console has just seemed to die which is a pity. Wish they would keep putting out import games and it's not like they have gotten through all the titles.

Mr E

They haven't even scratched the surface of available titles.
I'd love to see more C64 games, but the last update was February 2009 (after releasing just 19 games).

I imagine that there just is not the appetite for C64 games, at that price

WiiWare
Sandy Beach

Picked up Pearl Harbor Trilogy - 1941: Red Sun Rising over the weekend after a bottle of wine and am quite taken aback with how good it is for a downloadable title! It's tough, very tough in fact and it took me a good hour to get past the first level but it's the type of game you can go back to and have a challenge each time (there's no gimmick to winning).

700 points well spent and while there's no multiplayer or online, I'm hoping they'll sort that out for one of the other two in the trilogy....fingers crossed
