The two games got bundled together with the console, then finally in 2011, they removed both games from the bundle and sold them seperately (you can now buy Wii Sports solus seperately from the console as part of the Nintendo Selects range)

More people have played it, it had a greater impact on society and some people are miffed about the existence of the Motionplus accessory (and may subconsciously blame WSR for its existence) Either that or they just liked Tennis the best

Has anyone else here still not recieved their code? I submitted my choice the day after the promotion was revealed and I'm still waiting on my New Style Boutique code...

Yeah, you're right. Sorry, must've gotten it mixed up with its sequel But despite that, I still suspect that this'll be the same set of games that was compiled for PS2/PSP before, so I reckon that it'll also include some CPS titles

Ghosts N' Goblins is CPS1 at least... I suspect that this'll probably be mostly the same set of games as on those PS2 Capcom Classics collection (though hopefully with decent emulation this time!)

For those who yearn to play N64 games with a fixed analog stick, there is a solution... http://www.ebay.ca/itm/160655759083?redirect=mobile I bought a set of these and replaced the sticks in my controllers. The difference is ASTOUNDING! It feels just like it did on the first day I bought them and come HIGHLY recommended!

Just seen it and I loved it. That being said, I must say that it didn't feel as lighthearted as I would've liked and a bit too similar in tone to the to the LOTR trilogy, while the one scene which I was hoping would match up with Fellowship (Riddles in the Dark), did not (I think they missed a trick by not having Gollum speak the same line he did in the intro of Fellowship, though the scene was wonderful regardless) They'd snuck in quite a few nice bits from the Appendices very well, like the White Council scene with Galadrial (I think the flashback to Moria was also a part of the Appendices rather than The Hobbit, but I don't really remember - been too long since I have read it last!) It was slower in pace than the LOTR movies for sure, but it doesn't get boring at all. They did a great job of representing pretty much all of the original material, or at least all I remember of it (don't think anything was cut out AFAIK, though I must confess that my memory is not the best) and it does leave me wondering what is left to add into the Extended Editions... (content from Silmarillion perhaps?) All in all, very happy with how it has turned out. Not perfect, but still wonderful. Looking forward to watching it again (gonna watch the 3D/48FPS version on my second viewing; I'm immensely curious as to how it looks!) Still not sure how they intend to draw out 3 movies worth of content from the one book, but I have faith that they will deliver. They've done a fantastic job so far! (and of course that's to say nothing of the LOTR trilogy )

http://www.pockett.net/n15527_Divers_Capcom_Arcade_Cabinet_sur_Nintendo_3DS_Wii_U_PS_Vita_PS3_iPhone_iPad_en_plus_de_la_Xbox_360 No list of games yet, but the front cover aludes to it at least including Legendary Wings, Commando, Section Z, Gunsmoke, Trojan, UN Squadron, Black Tiger, Ghosts 'N Goblins and 1942. Since Backbone are out of business now, I think it's highly likely that the collection will be done by Iron Galaxy Studios (same people who did Street Fighter 3 Online on PSN/XBLA), so the emulation quality should be much better than previous collections While I'm not that interested in the Wii U one (since I'd rather see them released as Virtual Console Arcade games, in order to guarantee perfect emulation), I'm really keen on getting them on 3DS at least!

5 games that I could play forever... It's a tough choice because variety is the spice of life for me! (I don't necessarily play my favourite games on a regular basis) But here goes! Advance Wars Dual Strike: This is truly a game that I could happily play until the end of time. Endlessly deep, hideously addictive and with endless challenges and content. It's also both great fun in both single and multiplayer! I choose this one over the other games purely for the larger number of characters and potential game mechanics in play with the level editor, but I'd be just as happy with any of them really! Mario Party 3: No two matches are ever the same with the MP games! With luck playing arguably a larger role than skill in these games, anybody can win and anything can happen! I've played and own all of them (yes even Advance and e!) and Mario Party 3 is my favourite (oh how I you Game Guy and you too Reverse Shroom!) I still play all the games in the series on a regular basis with my friends and I don't think I will ever tire of them Panel de Pon GCN (AKA Puzzle League/Tetris Attack): THE greatest puzzle game of all time by a landslide. Endlessly addictive, unbelievably deep and skill based and another game that provides a wonderful single and multiplayer experience. It's the kind of game that you just lose yourself in, trying to endlessly improve your skills (this is the equivalent of hardcore fighting games for me, in the way that you never stop wanting to get better!). I pick the GCN version over the others for the 4 player multiplayer and because it has the best physics and scoring system (DS version has floaty physics, SNES/SFC version has a nasty scoring bug). All the versions bring something to the table that make them unique and interesting, but the GCN version is my favourite Perfect Dark: In addition to being the single greatest FPS of all time, with impeccable level design, an amazing myriad of weapons, wonderful music (the whole shebang), this game also combines elements of Puzzle League and Mario Party for me. The single player is relentless in its difficulty at the higher levels and offers endless possibilities for improving speed running times, while the multiplayer is so rich and customisable that anything can happen. It's impossible to get bored with this game and I don't suspect that I ever will New Super Mario Bros Wii: I could pick any of the Mario titles as some of my very favourites, but this one is probably the most replayable of them all. The level design is my favourite of the 2D games and the multiplayer element keeps things feeling endlessly fresh (especially when you add on Coin Battle mode!). Add on the speed running element to the single player and I could probably happily play it till the end of my days I should also add that Nintendo Land is looking like a likely candidate to add to this list. I don't see myself ever getting bored with it! (Though it's too new for me to add to it really)

But they have to port all the other games to a new system anyway! They always ignore the first game when it comes to series re-releases. It's just like HOTD1

Why the bloody hell does this not include the first game? And why isn't it slated for Wii U either? (Would love to be able to play these in bed!)

YEAH! Got my sticker book! BTW, I've been playing this on my daily commute and I'm really surprised at how portable friendly it is! Even when I've only had a short amount of time to play it, I've been thoroughly enjoyingy my time with the game I'm up to World 2-2 and loving it so far. The save points are plentiful, but the enemies are tougher than past PM games, so it balances it out nicely. Not much in the way of story so far, which feels weird, but I love pretty much anything that comes out of the mouths of the Toads The visual gags are also really well done. You can really tell that thu actually physically modelled each environment in real life before rendering them in 3D on the 3DS! Kersti is also a nice partner, knows when to keep her mouth shut (the game has very little in the way of handholding really) and delivers some good lines that fill the hole that Goombario and Goombella have left

Disney do...

Hey! No fair! I call hacks!

DING DING DING! CORRRRREEEECCTTT! https://itunes.apple.com/nz/app/theatrhythm-final-fantasy/id572828338 No EMS stages. Quest stages are probably just a watered down version of the dark notes. Sad. The game deserves much better than a neutered iPhone port Would not want to play a version that has you covering up half the screen with your fingers, nor one that is missing the EMS stages, the Chaos Shrine/Dark Notes and Streetpass support. The Compose Scores mode is a cool concept, but it goes against what the game is about really and feels really out of place. I'm sure that this is much more worthwhile than localising DQM 3DS or Bravely Default...

I never get any of the bargains. Everything that ever goes on sale is something I've already bought Worst thing ever for me was Soul Calibur 4. Bought it on the week of release at full price, literally a week later the price was slashed in half to £20 Haven't bought a Namco game at full price since then (actually, I haven't really bought any Namco games, other than Pacman CE DX and a US Tales of Graces import, since then anyway ) You're probably not gonna see any real bargains on Wii U games until after Xmas. Probably in late January/early February.

Fudgenuts! Oh well, I'm not too upset really. If they feel it needs longer in the oven, then I want to see them cook it to perfection before putting it out on the plate. Take your time Two Tribes.

Me neither. I only managed to get my copy yesterday, so I'd bet on it probably being gone by now

They specifically said that they only bought them in order to own the Star Wars IP and to be able to make Episodes 7-9. Everything else (Indiana Jones, Lucasarts, ILM etc) was just a freebie bonus.

I have no issue with the lack of USB keyboard support. The standard software is more than good enough. The lack of voice chat support sucks though and I hope they patch it in later on.

That's very true, but there's nothing stopping Nintendo from setting off an off shoot company in another EU country to get around the issue, or allowing their distribution partners to run their own versions of the eShop to get around the problem. I'm not blaming them for the current situation as it's a fairly recent piece of legislation that they probably didn't anticipate coming into effect in time for the Wii U launch, but they should seek to do something to rectify the situation for those of us outside of Germany. Edit: Actually, scrap that last idea. Australia is even more restrictive for games than Germany is! Just run it from NOA's servers or from somewhere else.

Cheers Serebii. Crappy situation all round, but that doesn't excuse them from applying the German laws to all EU countries... They should have a seperate eShop server cluster set up outside of Germany. It should be easy to only have the German regulatory laws apply to Germany.

No Nintendo Land. If you're getting NL, there's no reason to get the Basic one. On the other hand, if you're not interested in NL, I see little reason to pay the higher price for te Premium (since an extra 24GB of storage is a drop in the bucket really. It's all about USB HDD storage anyway)

Well, all of the games on the collection are available on the Wii and 3DS VC already, so it's not hard to see why they might not see it as worth releasing over here... The big loss here is the extra Kirby Returns to Dreamland/Kirby's Adventure Wii Challenge Mode stages. I haven't picked up the US version yet, but that's the sole thing I want it for (got all the games on the VC anyway).
