No. You deal with these issues in console ports. Make the text larger, that's easy. Maybe tweak camera angles and such. There doesn't seem to be any cursor wobble on the Wii, at least not on the newer gameplay videos of Metroid and Zelda I've seen.

... maybe it'll use AA batteries too.

LucasArts has absolutely no power over the new Sam and Max. As for old LA titles on Virtual Console, there's no real reason Nintendo and LA couldn't make a deal about that. Probably depends on how much LA would want for those rights.

You just have to cram the cartridges in there really hard.

Why force wifi on an immobile device?

Oh come on, the controls aren't so unspeakably horrible you couldn't get used to them.

I still think you're a viral marketer.

You can critisize them. There are only a small number of games, notably the Fallouts, Planescape:Torment and Tim Schafer's games, that are so profound you can find a lot of bad things about them without actually suggesting they are bad as a whole at all. I may be heavily intoxicated, but what I'm saying is that when something is really, really good, you'll find a lot of positives AND negatives (maybe not quite as many negatives).

Okay, I'd like to clear up what my gripes about Metroid 3 are. It's not that it's a run-of-the-mill FPS. It's that it's a run-of-the-mill shoot-em-up from right before Doom was released. The level I've seen is so uniform people get lost while playing it.

Hmm, I didn't get that impression. I thought you turn with the nunchuk. EDIT: I checked. You only need to point a bit off-center to start turning (albeit slowly). The more off-center you point the faster it turns.

I've been checking out gameplay clips of the new Metroid. The Wii controller seems perfect. I don't think the problems people were worried about (like the Red Steel video earlier) actually exist. Metroid looks like a boring FPS, though.

They're going to haul all those consoles there, see that it's a holiday, take them back to Japan and try again next March.

Yes, Unbreakable is excellent. I've watched it many times and it keeps getting better.

Japanese language lessons cost loads. I'm not getting Wii at launch. I've never owned a console except a Gameboy Color for a month. Still, it's pretty likely I'm getting a Wii.

Thanks <3

Nope, from the new series.

Absolutely fantastic.

I just saw a BMFM toy in the store

$250 tends to convert to around 250€, at least in Finland. I bet that's the price. I wonder how much later it'll arrive to Europe... Well, at least we'll know if it's as good as it seems by the time we get it :/

Fallout is terrific. The first one is a lot tighter and more cohesive, a better game in my opinion, although shorter. You need to 'get' the scenario and the world to like it. I absolutely love it. Planescape is wonderful too, but my personal preference goes to Fallout.

Gotta love the tradition of taking the most violent movies ever and making them into children's cartoons like Toxic Avenger and RoboCop. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toxic_Crusaders http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robocop:_The_Series

You know, I don't think we ever got Street Sharks the series, but I know we got the toys. A bunch of my friends had some and I think my little brother had one. I had a couple of BMFM toys Oh, some Toxic Avenger toys based on the animated series we never got either

I downloaded The Deadly Mantis and that one is ass. Manos is great, though.

Maybe that's a bit too much of a copy...

TMNT for life.
