Try Before you Pay and Play

Yesterday was the big WiiWare release day, but since I don’t have a Japanese credit card (yet) I didn’t have time to pick up points to snag any new games.
But that’s okay because I found this slick shockwave demo of Kotoba no Pazuru Moji Pittan that faithfully recreates the entire game-experience right there in your browser, and its free of course.
What does that tell you about Mojipittan? Well it’s certainly not a very technically complex game (it’s kind of like Scrabble), but maybe the simple fun is what’s needed for the initial WiiWare release? The demo certainly made me want to pick it up.
Since I can’t get every WiiWare release after work today I’d like to ask you, the readers, what games do you want to know more about? The majority vote will get purchased and reviewed at the end of the day!

I would like to know more about the Pokemon ranch channel actually. Is that out yet? Seemed like a cool way to extend your Pokemon experience to the console.

I think I’ve heard enough about all of the WiiWare releases. It seems the more promising ones are:
Dr. Mario
Pokemon Ranch
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King
Saku Saku Animal Panic
Possibly Star Soldier R (depends on what you want from the shooter)
Pokemon Ranch seems to have the most features, though, so I wouldn’t mind hearing more about the game.

Just so everyone knows, the full list of titles to choose from are:
Okiraku Ping-Pong
Word Puzzle Mojipittan
Saku Saku Animal Panic
Star Soldier R
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King
Angel’s Solitaire
Dr. Mario
Everybody’s Pokémon Farm
and Lonpos

Unfortunately, the only game that I truly want (Besides the Ping Pong game) are not available so far: Joysound and Bomberman WiiWare.

Sorry for double post, but I meant to say “…I truly want to know more”

I’m sure it will change by the time wiiware starts in the us, but i just want more information about al the games in general. They’re all kinda mysterious still.
