The Mask of Norro Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 For Christmas, I received $100 worth of Wii Points cards. Five cards. 10,000 Points. I still haven't finished spending all the points Thus far, I've gotten the following: all of Megaman 9's downloadable content, World of Goo, Mario Kart 64, Sonic 2, Sonic 3, Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire, & Comix Zone. 3,500 points still left and I'm waiting on Smash Bros 64 to come out in January so I can pick that one up. All in all, I'm pretty satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skummy Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 Bwahaha. I seriously just had to rack my brains to even remember what the fuck Toshinden was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katsuya Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Toshinden has a special place in my heart, because it was my first game on the PS1 (followed by Ridge Racer and Jumping Flash)...so, yeah. They better have this set for a PAL release now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mongrel Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I got myself Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney today after hearing good things. Was wondering how the fuck they were giving him my name as a nickname, until I found out that he's called "Nick" on all versions. Still, it's pretty awesome fun.

Katsuya Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I only started playing Trials & Tribulations a week or so ago, because I completely forgot I bought in in like, October '07. So I jumped from Justice For All to Apollo, then back to T&T. Either way, all Phoenix games > everything else on the DS. Maybe not EBA, but Phoenix is a series, so nyeh.

LexChaney Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Just got a Game Cube for £14.99 and two games with it. Resident Evil: Zero and Resident Evil 2. I'm yet to play on it. But it's there for a rainy day and that. I just need the Resident Evil remake for it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toe Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 House Of The Dead: Overkill sounds awesome and the concept is cool. Has anyone played it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenged Probably Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 I must say Professor Laytons Curious Village game is one hell of a bundle of fun. Its got a fun little whodunnit midsummers murders style story, but the main point of the game is the puzzles. Some are directly related to the story, where a lot are just kinda random. Its hella fun, and a lot of the puzzles are rather testing. I think its something for everyone cos me and the GF have both played and we manage to find opposite puzzles hard or easy.

John Stones' Paint Trophy Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 So, fun local multiplayer games for the Wii that aren't Mario Kart, Brawl or Wii Sports? Got some friends over tomorrow and we'll blast through the usual fare pretty quickly so am wondering what else there is. Boom Blox looks fun but I'm not sure how it would go down. Cheers for any suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Smash Bros, Guitar Hero, Mario and Sonic, any of the Mario sports games, Mario party can be fun for a while. RedSteel is supposed to be good, ditto to Sega Superstars Tennis. Other than that you're probably looking at the likes of PES and FIFA, the reliable brands of sports games unless I'm missing something glaringly obvious. The new SVR got good reviews too, if that's your thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted February 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Boom Blox is fantastic multiplayer, you should buy it. I would also recommend De Blob and World of Goo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Stones' Paint Trophy Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Cool beans. Thanks for the help; picked up Boom Blox and am having a ton of fun with it thus far and World of Goo is downloading as we speak. Also picked up Eledees/Elebits for £8, just based on the fact that it looked like a fun, little casual time killer but haven't played it yet. I've been too busy going for all the medals in Lylat Wars to really play much else right now. Goddamn Sector X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 In holy shit news, Nintendo has shipped its 100 millionth DS: Nintendo accounce sales milestones - 100 million DS systems shipped and 83 software million-sellers See press release below: March 11, 2009 - Somewhere - perhaps in Paris, maybe in Chicago, possibly in Tokyo - the 100 millionth system in the Nintendo DS™ franchise has been shipped to a retailer or distributor as of March 6th 2009. The combined total sales of 100 million Nintendo DS systems, Nintendo DS Lite systems and Nintendo DSi systems represent a significant milestone in the life of this franchise, which is still going strong. Since the original Nintendo DS launched in early 2005 in Europe, its dual screens, touch screen and voice-recognition capabilities ushered in an era of new experiences not previously possible on portable systems. The successor, Nintendo DS Lite, launched with a slimmer, trimmer look. The third iteration of the Nintendo DS hardware, Nintendo DSi, launches in Europe on 3rd April. Nintendo DSi includes two cameras and the ability to record, manipulate and play sound files, and will allow consumers to personalise their very own Nintendo DSi experiences. It will again transform the way people access, experience, create and share portable content. From the beginning, consumers around the world responded to the novel software options available on Nintendo DS and this is reflected by the fact that as of the end of December 2008, there were 83 Nintendo DS titles, the global shipment of which exceeded 1 million, and seven of them topped the 10 million shipment figure. . Experiences like Nintendogs and the Brain Training series began a paradigm shift for the industry, as video games grew beyond the traditional audience of young men to include girls, adult men and women - and even seniors. Traditional games like New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart DS keep people coming back for more. Nintendo DS games demonstrate an "evergreen" quality: They frequently remain in the top-selling lists, months - or even years - after their launch. The system continues to expand into new territory with titles such as Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What To Eat? and Walk with me! Do you know your walking routine?

apsham Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Should I be all that pissed off that I cracked and got a DS lite when the DSi isn't that far away? I mean, I'm not interested in their virtual console on there at all and the other features are kinda meh to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 I got a DS Lite instead of waiting for the DSi so I could still play my GBA games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
