Wii Ware Launches
 

Yeah only about a year and a half after the release of the console.
The Wii's downloadable service gets it own class of new content.
And twas far not a bad line-up.

I've only downloaded Lost Wind which is a really cool 2D platformer with you controlling two characters at once somewhat. Only about 15 mins in so far but the music is very calming.

I'm interested in Star Soldier R as it's a continuation of my favourite shmup series, and the FF:CC game looks pretty good. I doubt I'll be buying anything until they release an additional hard drive.

I'm kind of jealous. I've got a homebrew channel installed on my Wii so I decided to wait a few days until the homebrew community is sure Nintendo's not going to brick our consoles with these WiiWare titles before I make the purchase. Lost Winds totally looks worth the money.

when the mexican geometry wars with machine guns and chainsaws releases, WiiWare might be worth something

I hear that isn't always your story.

Well put more time into Lost Winds and if this is any indication of where the service is going. Couldn't get off to a better start.

The game is a little slow and weird without a dedicated jump button. But it is fun. And while it is a minor character you soon forget that you are actually controlling two characters at once.

I hear you have a small hard-on for boys.

We probably shouldn't believe everything we hear.

edit: oh wow, that "small" isn't where it ought to be. But the dye has been cast.

I'd like to drink you.

I downloaded Star Soldier R for 8 bucks and it is the PERFECT in-between kind of game. So sweet. It's now near the top of my channel list.
