That looks great but I'm waiting to hear what music they chose, the Genesis music was different between regions and having the Sega CD bootup music was what sealed the deal that time.

So I was right about it going to be hideous. In what world did they think the Times New Roman on bland white background with blue grid was ever an appealing design? Cripes. The bottom screen of the Japanese version has that too but that's not nearly as bad as having the top screen be that.

It is maybe worth noting that even after the discount it's probably cheaper to get Resident Evil 4 HD (with trophies!) on PS3/360 (the PS3 version is actually on sale right now for like £6 in the UK) Is there a PC version? That's probably super cheap too The Wii pointer controls are my favourite way to play RE4 though

I appreciate that they're supporting Wii downloads and I get that this ties into Halloween, but could they have picked a game that wasn't already available everywhere? Hell, given that their Halloween Wii U Eshop theme has an entire page devoted to "Castlevania Games," even throwing the two N64 Castlevania games or some of the DS games onto the Eshop would make sense, and if there's one thing Konami is supporting on the Eshop, it's Castlevania. No, Nintendo and Capcom, I'm not buying RE4 Wii Edition for $15 when I can get the HD version and a bunch of random stuff I won't play like RE5 from Humble Bundle for 9.48. EDIT: Oh, it's NOE, not NOA, so I wouldn't even get that option. Carry on.

Umm I started playing Freedom Planet and I think my game is messed up? Every time the character's meter fills up they automatically use an attack that either slows me down or flings me off in a random direction... Is it supposed to do that?

The pointer controls in RE4 Wii are more fun than the nicer graphics of the HD version but it kind of sucks that they didn't just port that version to the U.

PAL update (week of October 29):quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS RE4 is playable on the the gamepad using the original controls but the Wiimote/Nunchuk setup is what you want. No, Binding of Isaac doesn't have cross-buy. No, I don't know how broken the PAL version will be.

The Stella Glow demo is up but near as I can tell you have to actively search the game out since the demo doesn't even show up in Recent Arrivals -> New Software at the moment.

Andrast posted:Good. Everybody should play it. I think everybody has played it. The Wii version is definitely the best and most feature-complete SD version, but... you know, it's still the SD version. It doesn't look great on a HDTV. If you have any way of playing any of the HD versions, I wouldn't recommend going for the Wii one unless you really want to play it with pointer controls, and even then the pointer controls do have the annoying side-effect of making the game incredibly easy even on higher difficulties. Plus the HD versions are generally available for a bit cheaper than $15 (the PS3 HD edition goes on sale *all the time*. Seriously, like, every other month. It's on sale now.) Course, you could get the best of both worlds if you plug in a Bluetooth adapter and use GlovePIE to play the mouselook-enabled PC HD version with a Wii Remote, but obviously that's stupid and wouldn't really work so don't do that.

Heads up, Sega is delisting MD Sonic 2 and both versions of Sonic 1 from the Wii VC on October 30; there's no indication that they'll ever come to the Wii U VC, so if you don't own them and think you might want to play them on Wii U at some point, get 'em while you still can.

By the way, info about the CN successor is out and it's sadly not called *New* Club Nintendoquote:http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/library/events/151029/img/47l.jpg quote:We will start a new point program as well, which not only involves Nintendos dedicated game systems but also smart devices. Miitomo (probably not the English name) is a mobile app that you can load your profile and do stuff with it. More info here.

I've only played RE4 on the PS2. Cracking fun and I'm likely to enjoy it again, but is the Wii version radically different? Also I am so excited about an EU release of Freedom Planet. Finally.

Flint_Paper posted:I've only played RE4 on the PS2. Cracking fun and I'm likely to enjoy it again, but is the Wii version radically different? The PS2 version had vastly downgraded graphics and geometry from the Gamecube version but more content overall. The Wii version is basically a mix between the Gamecube and PS2 versions, retaining the original graphical and geometric detail but with the PS2 extras plus the option for the new control scheme which you should try out. The HD versions for PS3/360/Steam are based on the Wii version but upscaled to higher resolutions.

Not really, the Wiimote control system works really well and it's based on the GC version so the graphics are a bit improved over the PS2 but that's about it.

The Kins posted:Worth noting that the XBLA versions will be removed at the same time, too. Not that you'll be missing much what with the 3DS and mobile updates, but it's worth keeping in mind. Actually it is a bit of a thing, because the Wii VC versions are the only versions that have the Knuckles Lock-On features. It's not much, but it's still something unique to them.
