I predict tears.

Oh come on VOOK, there is absolutely no reason as to why Mighty Flip Champs or Art Style: Decode are not out yet and you know it.

Nintendo haven't released all the Master Illusion and Clocks yet.

There are MORE Master of illusion paks?!?!?!?! I has absolutely no idea of this.

 

[Somnid]

There's one more, but if it follows the same schedule it won't release for a while.

 

[Capndrake]

There's three more upcoming Master of Illusion packs. Japan already has two of them.

Apparently the Nintendo Channel already updated with today's US WiiWare game and DSiWare game. Family Pirate Party for WiiWare, Real Soccer 2009 for DSiWare.

Interesting. Does this mean Soccer is the ONLY game for this week on DSiWare though?

I could really kill for some Flip Champs Capn.

 

[VOOK]

Real Soccer 2009 is actually pretty good.

 

[HUELEN10]

Real Soccer 2009 is actually pretty good.

Any relation to the iPhone game?

 

[Somnid]

Real Soccer 2009 is actually pretty good.

Americans just see the word "soccer" in the title and skip it.

 

[HUELEN10]

Americans just see the word "soccer" in the title and skip it.

I never understood this. Football (aka soccer to the USA, ugh...) kicks ass.

 

[Vagabundo]

thanks. nope, it was a three-monther. not fun, and i've resolved to NEVER return to the OT. never

Lol. I just did some search stalking on you. You totally deserved it.:lol :lol

Anyway, back to our regular programming.

 

[VOOK]

Any relation to the iPhone game?

Yeah it's pretty much the same, Real Soccer is also available retail too or that could be the 2008 version. This DSi version has some DSi stuff putting your mug on flags and the stadium and stuff.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Today I shall feed on the tears of NeoGAFers.

Spoiler

That includes myself.

Interesting. Realistic football videogames are not typically my thing, but at least from what I can tell, it doesn't seem like shovelware...

NINTENDO DOWNLOAD: GALAXY FORCE PLAYS REAL SOCCER AT A PIRATE PARTY

May 11, 2009

Nintendo DSiWare™ takes its first trip into the sports category this week with the cool, camera-enabled Real Soccer 2009. For more of a board-game feel, dive into Family Pirate Party on WiiWare™ and see who can collect the most gold. Finally, the out-of-this-world arcade shooter Galaxy Force™ II hits the Virtual Console™.

Nintendo DSiWare

Real Soccer 2009 (Gameloft, 1-4 players, Rated E for Everyone, 800 Nintendo DSi Points™): It’s time to live the soccer season to the max with Real Soccer 2009 on Nintendo DSi™. It will offer you a never-before-seen soccer experience with revolutionary yet easily accessible touch-screen controls. Take a photo of anything with the Nintendo DSi Camera and turn the image into your own custom ball or team flag, or even make yourself into your favorite player. With 198 teams using real player names, realistic opponent behaviors thanks to advanced artificial intelligence, and superior 3-D graphics, you’ll feel just like a professional soccer player. Go ahead, take your best shot!

WiiWare

Family Pirate Party (Aksys Games, 1-4 players, Rated E 10+ for Everyone 10 and Older – Mild Cartoon Violence and Suggestive Themes, 500 Wii Points™): Daddy, Mommy, Sarah and Billy make their return as pirates sailing the seas and skies. Roll the dice and sail through the islands to gather the treasures each island holds. The person with the most gold at the end wins. Family Pirate Party shines with its appealing cel-shaded graphics and endearing music. Challenge up to three other players (friends, the CPU or both) for some four-player board-game fun. Do you have it in you to defeat your opponents and become the king of Family Pirate Party!?

Virtual Console

Galaxy Force II (Sega Genesis, 1 player, Rated E for Everyone – Fantasy Violence, 800 Wii Points): Galaxy Force II is an arcade shooter with a 3-D view from behind your spaceship. Fly through five different planets, taking on enemies in environments that range from a peaceful garden to lands made of fire or ice. Navigate treacherous landscapes by flying low over the planet’s surface and blowing up enemy robots, ships and turrets, then flying through a tunnel to destroy the alien stronghold on each planet. It is your duty as part of the Galaxy Force to defend against the alien invasion and maintain peace in the solar system.

Nintendo adds new titles to the Nintendo DSi Shop™ and the Wii™ Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time on Mondays. Users with broadband Internet access can redeem Wii Points or Nintendo DSi Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel. Nintendo DSi Points can be purchased in the Nintendo DSi Shop. A Nintendo Points Card™ can be purchased at retail locations. All points from one Nintendo Points Card must be redeemed in either the Nintendo DSi Shop or the Wii Shop Channel. They are not transferable and cannot be divided between the two systems.

Remember that both Wii and Nintendo DSi feature parental controls that let adults manage the content their children can access. For more information about this and other features, visit Wii.com or NintendoDSi.com.

UGH

EDIT: Curse you HUELEN!

 

[Shard]

Well, better selection this week, not saying much.

 

[Wilsongt]

Damn those edits.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Nothing can beat last week. Still though... literally nothing worth buying.

 

[HUELEN10]

Curse you HUELEN!

:lol

Well, better selection this week, not saying much.

Let's face it. At this stage, it seems like we got piss instead of shit. That ain't saying much.

So how many more VC titles till the big 300?

 

[Wilsongt]

Next week, but don't hold your breath.

 

[Shard]

298.

 

[HUELEN10]

Well I don't really care about Majora, but Smash Bros would be nice. Better yet, Yoshi's Island, but I know it won't happen soon....

 

[Hobbun]

Next week, but don't hold your breath.

If we don't get MM for the 300th game (whether it's next week or the following), I'm going to be pretty pissed.

There's no reason NA shouldn't get it as both EU and Japan, have.

 

[Somnid]

-Family Pirate Party

-Party Fun Pirate

The start of a shitty trend?

SHouldn't Smash Bros come first?

Why? Has Smash Bros. already been released in other regions, as well?

 

[Captain N]

I'm still hoping we get some sort of VC on the DSi around E3. Because I will not be a happy guy if all we get are tiny pieces of old DS games.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Next week is VC game 300, all I ask for is Majora's Mask, I wouldn't even mind if nothing else gets released that day!

 

[Somnid]

Judge for yourself.

Thankfully, it looks a lot better, but name is still terrible and nobody would ever be able to tell them apart.

That doesn't look as bad as I expected it to, but I am still a bit creeped out by the family swimwear fun there at the end.

I still doubt we will get a VC for consoles on DSi. A Handheld one makes much more sense, especially since licenses are tired to system, and it doesn't seem like that will go away any time soon.

 

[PepsimanVsJoe]

Guess I'll get started on those VC reviews for my blog. It's not like Nintendo is giving me anything better to do. =(

Editorial for the rumor mill or predictions for E3? I am working on one right now.

"Where The #&@% Is My Mario Party 9?"

I meant the handheld VC..which I guess would be a VHH(?) and I would be all over that. Of course I just went back and played some of my old Game Gear games and the ones I played didn't stand the test of time.

 

[BikoBiko]

Editorial for the rumor mill or predictions for E3? I am working on one right now.

"Where The #&@% Is My Mario Party 9?"

I think it will be there. I hope it will be there.

 

[HUELEN10]

I think it will be there. I hope it will be there.

Yeah, as a Mario Party fan, I want 9 so bad. I loved the GCN ones, god 7 was something special, but holy shit, 8 sucked so hard. What the fuck were they thinking. graphically, it sucked and the minigames RELALY sucked.
Well, I will stop now, I don't want to derail this great thread.

 

[nincompoop]

Press Release.

On the bright side, my copy of Klonoa should FINALLY arrive today.

 

[abstract alien]

They have to be saving up for an awesome e3 release...right? I mean, is this stuff even making any money?

 

[beelzebozo]

They have to be saving up for an awesome e3 release...right? I mean, is this stuff even making any money?

maybe. i've sort of removed myself emotionally from hoping things i want will come out. it became an unhealthy practice for me.

 

[Somnid]

I doubt they are storing much at all, probably just stretching what they do have.

 

[crowphoenix]

I doubt they are storing much at all, probably just stretching what they do have.

I can understand doing that for the Nintendo releases, but one would hope they'd have enough quality titles from other systems to throw us a bone every 4-6 weeks. But, this is a point well discussed here, so I digress.

Like, Beelze, I'm not as invested as I used to be, but mostly that's because a Retro store opened up near me, so I go there now.

There's been a noticeable drop in all platforms even in Japan. The amount of western releasable games from what we know is increasing at a rate slower than 1 game a week. They just aren't concentrating on it anymore.

 

[bryehn]

Another week that Nintendo doesn't want my monies. See y'all next week.

Which is distressing. There are some games, such as Zombies Ate my Neighbors, that I'm beginning to wonder if they'll appear. Ah well. I've still got my copy, but I would like other people to be able to give that great game a try.

 

[Hobbun]

Hopefully that is temporary. There are still too many games I want to see for the VC.
