1UP: Final Fantasy CC: My Life as a King Review

My Life as a King's depth is surprising for a downloadable title, and it suggests that this could have been slapped on a DVD and sold at retail price. But such as it is, downloadable is the way to go, and based on the evidence here, the Crystal Chronicles series has a bright future ahead of it. The only knock on the game is that it portions off the extra races (Selkies, Lilties, and Yukes) as downloadable content, but it's otherwise highly recommended.

Yeah this really is a fun game and I agree with him on the part where you just want to do one more game day to see what your adventurers do. Then that one more day turns into yet another one more day and so on and so on ^^

Good to know about putting houses next to mage temple. I'll do that for sure and he's right about looking at stats can be fun. You can have 3 saves and I'm sure I'll be making 3 towns ^^

Top 20 WiiWare Games (20-11)

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "This past week, Nintendo announced that after more of a decade they would be shutting down the Wii Shop Channel. Many gamers (myself included) have found memories of taking our Wii consoles online, putting in our Wii Point Card numbers and downloading a whole bunch of classic Nintendo, Sega and NEC titles onto the Wii system. But the Wii Shop Channel was also home to a whole catalogue of new games that made up the system’s WiiWare service. It was here that many of the system’s smaller and more experimental titles came into being and many of the developers that brought us these games are now responsible for big indie series’ thanks to their original success on WiiWare. So as a sort of goodbye to Nintendo’s original download service, we’re counting down the Top 20 Best WiiWare games starting with numbers 20 through 11 today (check back next Friday for 10 -1)."

we dont have to say "farewell" to any of these games. We can say, "welcome aboard" and play them on the wii-u.

Nintendo should use that as a marketing angle. "Don't say farewell to those wii games. Say hello to them all over again on the Nintendo Wii-U."

Or something to that effect.

Venoxn4g4210d ago (Edited 4210d ago )

yea or "people, who didnt own a Wii, now can enjoy Wii & Wii U games on one console" yeay! :)

btw, here's a good list of games Wii and others, made by me ^^ :)

Yep i Didn't have a Wii, but i preordered the Wii U. So i will get to play all those great games i missed and i know there's more than that list!!!

beerkeg4210d ago

There's tons of games for the Wii. Some thought themselves too much of a gamer to appreciate them though.

Nevers0ft4210d ago

I know its only an opinion piece but... No Sin and Punishment, no Dead Space, no Zack and Wiki? There's numerous other gems out there but those three seem like no-brainers.

DanielRCampbell4209d ago

Those were actually on the docket to be added to the video, but it would have caused me to miss my deadline for the piece. I had to stop where I was. :-(

DSi/Wiiware franchises we want on the eShop

Gaming Gauge writes:"eShop is on its way in a just a couple of hours and then just a few hours later Nintendo will be hosting their 2011 E3 press conference. Whilst Nintendo will surely be pre-occupied with Project Café and upcoming 3DS games but hopefully they'll give us a look at a few upcoming eShop games. Among those hypothetical eShop games there are a whole bunch of previous Nintendo Downloads that I've love to see revisited."
