Do you mean, are you able to pay only the exact amount required for a Wii Shop Channel game in the same way that you can for a 3DS eShop game? Don't think so. Using credit card/eShop cards on the Wii Shop Channel still forces you to buy in 1000-point increments, AFAIK.

I think Nintendo removed the option to rate demos, lol.
You never could rate demos.

VLR demo is really nice. Picking that and Fallblox up.
Is it really expensive?
What is up with all these price hikes on Eshop? In the beginning of eshop we had games for arround 5 a 6 now they keep increasing prices like it is nothing. like 15 for a pokedex app. Because of these price i buy less games. Fallblox will be a great game but now i will wait for a sale to buy it. Most games are just out of my range of insta buying with prices like these.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic. Pushmo and Crashmo could probably get away with being full priced retail games. Hell, they're better and have more content than most games which cost $60 on other systems.

Eh, quite serious in the context that it is a downloadable game and like m0t0k1 pointed out it feels like there's been an across the board price rise for all eshop games recently, e.g from ~£4/£5 standard pricing last year to £6/£7 we're starting to see with more recent eshop games.
My conspiracy hat says Nintendo is starting to adjust prices in anticipation for the inevitable eshop discount sale (Pullblox has already been on ~20% off sale twice this year in PAL Land), which I will happily wait upon.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
I suspect I'll be more happy playing the game day 1, but to each their own, as they say ;p

If Pushmo were a $30 retail game, I would have gladly ponied up for it.
I guess it's disappointing that for Crashmo they're raising the price by $1 or $2, but if it's anywhere near as good as Pushmo, and has anywhere near as much content, it will be an obvious buy for me at just about any price.

US better get NG this week!
I's worth every single cent.
Can't wait! I just got all the endings in 999 and the sequel seems even more interesting with its trust/betray system.

Exactly my feelings. I am so much more willing to try a new IP when its a nice little downloadable game.
This is what I hate. I was looking forward to buying VC games for whatever they cost. Also the 10% back promotion would've been great to use with VC games.

VLR demo? Nice!
If Crashmo follows Pusmos footsteps it will have insane content (plus level editor, which was already confirmed). Well worth the small price of admission.
Also, Virtue's Last Reward Demo? Woah, that's a surprise. If it's good, I might buy the full game.KirbYuuYuu

I think it's more of a as the userbase gets larger, prices eventually start going up to take advantage of that fact. I mean look at PSN and XBLA. (not that Crashmo won't be worth the price)
We already know how much content it has, it's on the press release--140 regular levels, 90 tutorial levels and 20 additional Spotpass levels over the course of nine months.
I dunno, depending on the publisher/developer I'd seriously consider it, and being a Nintendo title developed by Intelligent Systems that'd make it a prime candidate.
what the fuck
If it's like Pushmo:
You get a handful of levels explaining the mechanics, then a bunch more that are easy stages to let you get familiar with those mechanics.
Crashmo is much harder than Pushmo, plus there are more gadgets and such.
Pushmo was like 66% tutorial-style filler anyway, so I'm glad they're at least segregating that crap away from the main game so I won't have to bother with it.
Huh?
Like the hat?

That's fine then, hopefully the tutorial levels are not a drag like in pushmo.
Geez people, I wasn't even that serious about it. I just like exaggerating sometimes! Saying EDIT: Ninja'd would be just boring to me!
because reggie hates hardcore gamers confirmed.
ah, just a week. i was bracing myself for a month of extra wait. i can finish paper mario comfortably then
NoA, of course!
