Yeah, I didn't get the appeal of Kingdom Hearts.


To me, it looks like Final Fantasy vomited all over some old Disney movies, and called it a game..







But thats probably just my incredibly huge bias against anime talking.

That, and Super Mario Bros. Fun game. Fun game.
I've already got them!

I'm such a retard. It's changed now.
No, wait, ignore that.

I'm considering buying the Strong Bad Games for Attractive People from WiiWare.. that is if I can scrape enough cheddar (read: steal from my brother) to get some wiipoints.






Is it sad that I automaticly type "chedder" nowadays?

I actually caught myself typing chedder in an email to a friend last week.

So I take it I'm the only one who has a problem with pricing and user interface?

Or is it just that I'm the only one who's got something to compare it to?

Yes. You're the only Australian here, and the only one that uses a credit card to buy points instead of cash.

Hmm, can't see anything wrong with saving your credit card details on a free-to-access, easy-to-steal console!

That was one of the first games I bought since my dog ate my old cartridge.

FF7 was terrible. It's the sorta game that people who don't like RPGs like.

KH is... meh, the gameplay is mediocre, the story is mediocre... but it is like pure conscentrated childhood nostalgia injected directly into your bloodstream.

Oh yeah, forgot about the actual topic.
I got MM9... not that good if you weren't a big fan of MegaMan at the time, since it sells itself entirely on nostalga.
I also got all of the Strong Bad CG4AP games. They are brilliant, definitely worth it! Oh, and I felt the episodes got better as they went on; the first one wasn't that great.
And of course, World of Goo.

SBCG4AP is much cheaper (if you buy all the episodes at once) if you get it for PC, plus that way you don't have to worry about it taking up space on your Wii.

I really liked SBCG4AP, but the thing about it is anyone who isn't a Homstar fan probably wouldn't enjoy it that much.

It was... cute, but that was about it. It wasn't a bad game, it was just... not anywhere near the hype.

Free-to-access? It would only allow people to buy things on there. Easy to steal? then the person would be more likely to take my wallet in this situation. Thats a retarded excuse, and you know it.

I agree that the first kingdom hearts was pretty mediocre, but I found it enjoyable.

I felt the second one, however, was much better, especially because of the boss battles. Something about the KH gameplay just works really well with bosses. I also felt it improved on pretty much everything, except the levels were much more linear (but were designed better).

ANYWAY, BACK ON-TOPIC.

There are currently no WiiWare exclusive games I would consider buying. I think it may be because of space limitations (I remember hearing all WiiWare games must be 100mb or less), but that wouldn't explain or the good games on WiiWare that aren't exclusive to it. It's possible I just haven't heard of any good ones. Does anyone know of any WiiWare exclusive games that are worth owning?

I don't understand you, Dingo. Do you want to get into a stupid argument over video games, or do you just have no filter from your mind to your keyboard?
