411's Release List for the Week of January 18, 2009

411mania gives a rundown on this week's game releases. Highlights include Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica, Star Ocean: Second Evolution, Commander in Chief, Big Bang Mini, The Excitement of Haruhi Suzumiya, and Ultimate Shooting Collection.

Ar tonelico II
"Overall, the better-than-average story, unique battle system, and all the little things that you can do in the game help to make this a worthy purchase for those of you who like JRPGs and do not mind buying PS2 games this late in the system's life."

Star Ocean: Second Evolution
"As far as changes go, you can expect new playable characters, updated artwork, cut scenes, and voice work, as well as new dialog."

Commander in Chief
"While I am apprehensive about juggling so many issues at once, I was sold on the idea that I can 'determine the course of world events by invading a neutral country, toppling an unfriendly regime, or plotting assassinations' and then face the 'economic, political, and military consequences.'"

Big Bang Mini
"Obviously, maneuvering around enemy fire, debris, or anything else that's moving about is done with the stylus. To keep the controls completely on the touch screen, the game requires you to flick the stylus toward the top screen to launch attacks. Making it through the game requires you to figure out when to attack and when to move your ship to safety."

Suzumiya Haruhi no Gekidou
"The main game plays simply enough - all you have to do is watch the bar at the bottom of the screen and wave the Wii remote as instructed."

Ultimate Shooting Collection
"Despite its shovelware-looking cover and shovelware-sounding name, the three games that are included might actually be worth more than the shovelware-price, at least if you are a shmup fan."

Dreamcast Classic Confirmed for Nintendo's Wii

Cubed³ has just received official confirmation from O3 Entertainment that the arcade game Karous, or 'Crows' in English, (the last ever Dreamcast game) is in development over at Milestone. Whether or not O3 will be able to pick it up for publishing in the US is currently unknown, but this is indeed fantastic news as it seems it will be the first shooter game on Wii.

On gamecube's flash memory. Small titles are well suited for the Virtual Console, but Saturn and Dreamcast games should be headed to the PS3 for download. That's the only console suited for downloads of those size.

Unless they're talking about a disc release, which is worse... gamecube 2 is getting mostly ports of PS2, Gamecube and Xbox games, the only thing left was a dreamcast title...

I'm pretty sure they aren't talking about putting it on VC. It would be a disc release. Plus why not call it Wii or Nintendo5
