Zorro on Wii? Why didn’t they make a recent announcement? It’s a good idea, but somehow I feel like it may falll through.

Not too bad of a week.
In case any one is wondering, Tower Toppler for the c64 is also called Nebulus, and it’s a combo Platformer/Puzzler/side-scrolling shooter game. here’s a video of it:

Penguins and Friends, Hey! That’s my Fish appears to be based on a board game of the same name. It looks like a neat strategy kind of game. here’s a video of the board game:

All three of the new Wii games look pretty good. I really like the style of the new Zorro game, and as long as the game play doesn’t stink, I’ll probably eventually get it. Klonoa looks like a pretty good platformer, but I’ll probably wait until I can pick it up for a good price used.

I just want the original Cube Jungle Beat so i can use my bongos. But locally i can’t find it for anything less than $40-50 USED. I rented it once and almost finished it, but it’s a great game i wouldn’t mind owning for a reasonable price.

I miss the old update where you published the press release for wiiware/vc.

pre-ordered Klonoa! yipee!

What is with the DSi Ware releases? Dr. Mario was a cool drop, but that is the only one I’ve seen that I could get behind. What a complete disappointment that Nintendo gives us new hardware with a download and play feature but continue to give us shovelware lite week after week. I call poop on a stick!

I missed the original Jungle Beat. I wanna get that for sure.

Let it be known!
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat is freaking awesome. Don’t hesitate .. it’s only $30.

Strange that Klonoa is coming out this week, because I’ve seen it on the shelf (actual copies) at both of the GameStops that I frequent. I brought the fact that it was supposedly not out yet to the store clerks, and they looked on their computers and told me there was no embargo date (can’t think of the term). I would buy that, but I’m very much not able to afford it right now.
Same goes for DK Jungle Beat. Wish I could buy it!
