Moki Moki feels like a concept that would work well as a cheap iPhone game with its simple controls, but there's not really enough here to justify an 800 Point WiiWare price tag. If you've got kids they might find the cute characters appealing and the controls accessible, but it's doubtful anyone will want to play through all 100 levels of this game when there are many cheaper, more worthy puzzle games available on WiiWare already.

http://streetfighter.neoseeker.com/w/i/streetfighter/0/02/Street_fighter_logo.png

When it's all said and done, you can't help but appreciate how solid this PC Engine version truly is, especially when you take into account that it's running on what is basically a souped-up 8-bit console. When you consider that there are already superior versions of the game available on the Virtual Console service, however, it's tough to recommend this unsung import PC Engine release of the game. If you're looking for a Street Fighter II fix, you'll probably be better off sticking with either the Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis releases, but if you're one of those die-hard fans of the series that has to own them all, you'll likely find this PC Engine import more than adequate.

A Boy And His Blob: Trouble on Blobolonia (NES) (500 Points) *1 Spieler*

http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/article/104/1049779/BoyAndBlobInline1_1259130734.jpg

What is a good game, though, is A Boy and His Blob for the Wii. That Wayforward-developed remake just launched last month here on Nintendo's current console, and it actually achieved what this first NES attempt was trying to do -- it built an engaging, truly playable experience around the concept of the jellybean-eating, shapeshifting blob. This NES original has likely only launched on the Virtual Console in response to the release of that remake, which makes it timely for those who are curious and want to go back and compare the new vision with the old -- but those are the only people who should really consider spending 500 Wii Points here.

Everyone else, keep that five dollars in your pocket. Take it down to the local game store, pair it with a few more bills, and walk out with the new Boy and His Blob instead. (Or just go down to the grocery and grab a bag of jellybeans. A better outcome for you, either way.).

Quiz Show
keine ign Wertung || 8/10 bei nintendolife.com

http://www.planet-nintendo.de/img/articles/7278/TV-Show-King-WiiWare-2.jpg

There’s so much more that could be said about TV Show King 2 than what we have room for. The game has been improved and expanded across the board. Additional expansions upon the original formula that we didn’t even touch on include more question categories, new mini games to help shake things up in between trivia questions, and even more game modes of play (although you’ll likely just spend most of your time in “classic” mode). And all of it delivered at a cheaper price point, too.

TV Show King 2 takes a skin and bones first entry and nurses it back to health to make for a far more satisfying trivia game that successfully replaces its predecessor. Although not quite perfected yet, there’s not much left to improve. A long lasting and satisfying trivia experience for experienced players and an accessible entry point for those new to the genre awaits those willing to give this series a second chance.

The princess has mysteriously disappeared from the royal apartments, and hidden object game fans assume the role of the young knave who, armed only with a sword and a magnifying glass, must scour countless rooms and gloomy dungeons in the meticulously detailed settings, rendered with hand-painted 3D graphics.

http://pspmedia.ign.com/psp/image/article/101/1015298/stunt-cars-20090818060026326_640w.jpg

Despite the game's name, there is very little emphasis on actually performing stunts in the game and to make matters worse, what racing action there is tends to be very basic and offers little in the way of intensity. Stunt Cars feels like it's trying to do too many things at once and gives the game a very erratic feeling at times, making you wonder exactly what the developers were ultimately going for when they put the game together.

Unless you just have to own every single racing game that comes out, you'd probably be far better off avoiding this rather lacklustre WiiWare racing effort. As difficult as you'd think it would be to mess up a racing game, the developers of Stunt Cars have somehow managed to do just that.

http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/a...ress-a-day-of-fury-20091102115120158_640w.jpg

Stop Stress feeds the player's innate desire to smash things by using motion controls to do the smashing, though everything isn't as much fun to smash as it could have been. Because of the demanding objective to smash everything Stop Stress also stresses your arm joints; so much so that anything longer than a single play session would probably be ill-advised on health and safety grounds! Having said that there's enough fun in the game that many will find it worthwhile - assuming they can get past the 800-point asking price for a game that will take less than an hour to play through.

If you enjoyed Shinobi III or Revenge of Shinobi – both of which have already released on the Virtual Console - then it’s likely that you will get a kick out of Shadow Dancer too. It’s not quite as difficult and lacks some of the original ideas and glorious set-pieces that made the two aforementioned games so appealing, but the “one-hit” deaths ensure that it’s a slightly tenser and often more exciting experience. Many Shinobi fans have argued that Shadow Dancer does not stand up to the quality of the other two Mega Drive entries, but in many ways it is a lot more fun due to the simpler arcade-like style of play. Regardless of what has been said in the past, you can take it from us that this title comes highly recommended to all ninja fans.

http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/a...right-ace-attorney-20100111055058441_640w.jpg

Capcom has taken its recycling one step further for Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney. The company has always been known for recycling existing game engines to produce new games and additional franchise sequels – Mega Man, Resident Evil, Battle Network, Ace Attorney on the Nintendo DS, just to name a few. But this is the first time the company’s simply farted out a console port with the laziness of what looks to be handheld system emulation. Yes, I still think that Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney should be experienced because it’s a fun adventure, but it’s impossible to overlook what Capcom did to get it running on the Wii console. It’s downright embarrassing. And what’s worse: you know that there are two more on the way.

This port gets an F for effort, but that might not be enough for me to not recommend it -- the game is still good. But I'm definitely not going to praise Capcom for what little work the company did to bring it to console.

One day he gets a mysterious marker in the mail. There is no letter attached – only the plain orange marker. Max decides to test it right away, sits down and starts drawing. He draws a monster but as soon as he finishes the lines on the paper start moving and to Max’s great surprise the monster runs off the paper and into another drawing. Max realizes that he has to stop the monster, so he draws himself on the same drawing that the monster is in and immediately finds himself inside the drawing…… Read More »

Run, Jump, Think, Draw! Max & the Magic Marker is a physics-based 2D puzzle platformer, in which the player controls the boy Max and his Magic Marker. While you guide Max in good old platforming fun, the marker provides the game’s signature feature: everything the player draws directly inside the gameworld becomes a physical object. This feature is used to complete levels and overcome challenges but it also provides the player with a unique tool that in itself is fun to play around with.

Laser disc ports are somewhat dated and very repetitive because the footage never changes – but here, it’s all about the quick draw, and honestly it doesn’t matter if it’s video footage of a gunslinger or a fully 3D rendered model. Five bucks is the right price for something like Fast Draw Showdown. There’s not much to the design, but for what it is, it’s a fun, cheap experience.

http://wiimedia.ign.com/wii/image/article/106/1061646/EcoShooterInline_1263767510.jpg

So Eco Shooter: Plant 530 is ultimately a decent design, just not really all that impressive in the end. Spending ten dollars for just three levels of blasting away at old garbage, even alien-animated sentient garbage, feels like an uneven investment.

It is nice, though, that somebody at Nintendo finally remembered the old Wii Zapper shell. Though third parties have kept it active with excellent compatible products like Dead Space Extraction, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles and The House of the Dead: Overkill, it was beginning to look like Nintendo itself was never going to support it again -- lucky for the Zapper, it's going to end up being just a bit more remembered than such past peripheral greats as the N64 Transfer Pak, GameCube Broadband Adapter and Hey You, Pikachu! microphone.

Even with the compromises, Street Fighter Alpha 2 still has a great fighting engine at its core, and is still a pretty good game -- so the score you'll see below is still going to be a good one. But, for my money, there are better options for getting your Fighter fix on Wii -- six other Street Fighter games are available through Virtual Console alone, and we're only about a month away from the American release of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, too.

And if you're specifically wanting a Street Fighter Alpha experience, you're better off searching out a more complete, less compromised edition than this one. Besides, there's a good chance you didn't even know this game existed in the first place, right? No harm in letting it fade from your memory again.

Excitebike is still a fun design in its enhanced World Rally (Challenge) follow-up. The multiplayer mode and the online-capable track creator feels like natural additions to the classic, though an offline, splitscreen multiplayer mode seems like a no-brainer addition and it's a shame it wasn't in the final product. As much as I still hold the classic near and dear to my heart I don't think it quite holds up to today's standards, but this 3D revisit is easily one of the better WiiWare offerings available.

It's an absolute shame that the developers apparently did not test this game on standard televisions, as most of their Wii-playing audience probably has their consoles hooked up to one. The game itself is easy and fun to play, the characters are charming and the graphics are adorable, and multiplayer would be great for bringing in the kids for some good old-fashioned family fun, but the headaches and eye strain are not worth it. Unless you've got an HDTV and perfect vision, don't bother looking for this one unless you've got the patience necessary for plenty of trial and error.

Final Fight 3 is a fitting end to one of the more popular arcade series from the 16-bit era. Sure some of the new additions might rub some gamers the wrong way, but it's difficult to fault Capcom for trying to liven things up a bit with an added layer of depth. The simple fact that Final Fight 3 is quite rare and commands a fairly high price tag on most auction sites makes its 800 Wii Point price tag quite a bargain for gamers who just can't get enough of Capcom's flagship beat-'em-up series. It might not be the massive leap forward that fans of the series had hoped for, but it was definitely a step in the right direction.

I'm all for modern remakes of the classics, but let's see some hustle out there.

Overturn is definitely worlds better than Battle Rage, a joke of a mech fighter on Wii that sells for $25 at retail. This downloadable effort is just $8, runs better, and includes online multiplayer. It's still not a great game, though. These one-on-one robot battles just aren't very exciting. Environments are dull and empty and there isn't even an audience to cheer you on. It fares better online with four-player battle royales, but the gameplay is still very shallow. Add in the fact that the entire story mode and cast seem to have been removed from the Japanese version, and Overturn just doesn't have a lot to offer.

Although not originally intended to be thought of as an episodic Wiiware series, when viewed as such, Justice for All can be seen as a fitting successor to Ace Attorney as it succeeds in doing the one thing an episodic Wiiware game should do: provide more of the same kind of content to fans of the first "episode" without rocking the boat by screwing with the formula too much. Although a few tweaks were made here and there, the game is almost identical to the first release in the series and even reuses many of the same character animations from the first game, most notably Phoenix Wright himself. As a result, players who fell in love with Ace Attorney will no doubt view Justice for All as a must-have expansion to the first release. But those who were unconvinced that Phoenix Wright was the second coming of Atticus Finch are unlikely to be swayed by this new evidence.

It's a bit disappointing the characters that made Chapters 3 and 4 so good, Murray and Stan, don't return for an encore, but at least you get to enjoy LeChuck in all his evil glory – and with his original voice actor this time, as well! Although the ending isn't quite as epic as it was hyped up to be, and the puzzles are still nothing special, this is still a very enjoyable conclusion to the Tales of Monkey Island story, and it won't disappoint anyone who's played through the rest of it.

Reel Fishing Challenge has some issues and feels a bit shallow even as a digital download. Considering the price however, it isn’t a bad place to start for those curious of the genre. Players who have already delved into larger, deeper games of this sort may not be amused by what Reel Fishing Challenge has to offer, but those looking for a little taste of the genre should be content with what’s being served up here. It isn’t a must have title by any means but genuinely interested players should find enough redeeming qualities to make this one worth a download.

The Bit.Trip games are some of the most entertaining and unique on WiiWare, and Void continues this tradition of excellence. Hypnotic gameplay, foot-tapping 8-bit music, and old school Atari visuals make for one classy arcade game. And it's got a nice price at $6 (8€).

Only a couple small missteps keep Void from the upper echelons of WiiWare titles. The living backgrounds are great until they obscure your view and send you to the Netherworld. And when you finally get that high score your sense of accomplishment will be dampened when you realize you can't post it online for all the world to see.

But Void glows with a retro cool that will easily suck you in, whether or not you've played the previous Bit.Trip games. Hopefully this won't be the end of the series.

Apart from any disappointment about the length of the game, Mega Man 10 still has plenty to offer, and for a game that costs $10, you're getting a lot of bang for your buck. Mega Man 10 is unequivocally worth more than you're going to pay for it, but that $10 might not be well-spent if you don't know what you're getting yourself into. Fans of the series are going to want purchase this game, no questions asked, and you're going to love it when you do. But those who didn't game during the 8-bit era and have no familiarity with older games are going to find Mega Man 10 to be a frustrating, ruthless and unforgiving crash-course in the way games used to play. There's no hand-holding to be found here -- Mega Man 10 takes levels of memorization and skill that pretty much no game today requires. It's as throwback as throwback can get in that respect (especially on hard mode -- just you wait).

But those nostalgic, skilled old-schoolers who want to take another romp with Mega Man are going to fall in love with Mega Man 10. Its graphics, while in an archaic style, are beautiful. The Robot Master designs are awesome. The music is brilliant. The gameplay is classic. And the little additions give the series enough new life to keep things going full steam ahead. It's strange how Mega Man 9 sucked me into speed-running the game just to see my name on the leaderboard, and Mega Man 10 has done the same thing to me. Go figure.

So yes, progression in gaming is a good thing. But when you're talking about the classic Mega Man series, the world of 8-bit is precisely where it belongs. And because of that refusal to take a big jump forward, Mega Man 10 delivers. This might be quite the statement for many, but I stand behind it 100%: in terms of pure gameplay, Mega Man 10 is easily a better game than 90% of what we play on a yearly basis. And you can take that to the bank.

Zaxxon is a classic arcade game and has certainly earned a place in gaming history, but there's not much to recommend it today other than its novelty. For nostalgia buffs it's most certainly worth checking out, but most gamers should probably give it a pass.

In a sea of samey shooters, Saurus managed to make a solid shooting experience by taking bits of ones that had come before it, mixing it up with some nicely detailed animation and a decent - if unobtrusive - techno soundtrack. The fact that you can get such a rare game at a fraction of the going rate for the collectable CD version is one of the things that makes the Wii's Virtual Console service so excellent; especially when the game is as good as this one. If you have access to a Japanese Wii then this is well worth a look; otherwise you'll just have to wait!

So it seems we've run out of potential positives. There's no redeeming Lode Runner here, and no getting past the fact that investing just one dollar more for the already-available Battle Lode Runner would be a much wiser move. Download this one only if you're nostalgic for its original NES release. Otherwise, step up to the 600 Wii Point pricetag and grab the superior sequel.
