Square Enix has released some new screenshots of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles : Echoes of Time for the Nintendo DS and Wii in the latest Shonen Jump magazine. The game is due for release on January 29 2009 in Japan.
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)."
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The Final Fantasy series is one of gaming’s most revered franchises with many of its games finding themselves near the top of ‘best games of all time’ lists and simply uttering the words ‘Final Fantasy’ usually evokes images of epic quests and world class polish. But not all of the games to bear the name have been worthy of praise. Some, in fact are terrible, unplayable, ugly and obnoxious games that make you wonder how Square Enix ever approved them. So for this week’s Top 10 we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel and counting down the Top 10 Worst Final Fantasy Games."
Addition of FFXIII Lightning Returns and Crystal Bearers make your list redundant.
Though I appreciate the lack of FFX-2.
And I agree with the rest.
Since when is After Years or Lightning Returns bad?
This article is garbage, the absolute worst FF, Final Fantasy XIII is nowhere to be seen.
Also, why include a game that doesn't even exist anymore? FFXIV 1.0 is long gone...
SuperPhillip Central writes, "Currently, Wii U owners don't have a lot to play as of right now. However, the Wii U does feature something that makes it still worthy to own for those who missed out on the awesome Wii back catalog of games. A common criticism among those who are ignorant is that the Wii has few games worth playing. This assumption is most definitely false, as evident by our list of fifty of the best Wii games. That said, while you wait for some titles to finally launch on the Wii U, why not use the system's backwards compatibility to play some Wii titles that you may have missed out on? Better yet, how about you check out this list of twenty Wii games that are available for $20 or less? We could all use some financial assistance, especially in this economy, so why not be a bit frugal in our purchases? That is exactly what this list is for. If you missed out on the Wii for any reason, and you are looking for something to play on your Wii U, this list is for you!"
Not to excuse the software drought the Wii U has been in for the past couple of months, but backwards compatibility is indeed good for something in this regard.
Monster Hunter Tri really shouldn't be on this list. 3 Ultimate comes out THIS month. Unless of course you just want a cheap Monster Hunter game; in which case, knock yourself out.
Kinda saddened that Muramasas: The Demon Blade was not listed. That one was pretty cheap when I nabbed it off of Amazon around half a year ago.
Its funny that people bitch and moan about backwards compatibility, when in this case the players could fill the Wii U "drought" with Wii games we all know were overlooked by most.
Just picked up Trauma Center Second Opinion for 5 bucks. Do yourself a favor and get a copy NOW. :]
Well might not be all under 20 but I'd recommend
The Last Story (30 brand new)
Xenoblade ( get lucky at random GameStop 50)
New Donkey Kong Country
Pikmin 1 & 2
Okami
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn (50ish but worth every penny)
Pandoras Tower (new for 40 launching in April)
Metroid Prime Trilogy ( pretty rare these days unforunately)
Zelda Twighlight Princess (20 or less)
Zelda Skyward Sword (20 new at best buy)
Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 (cheap)
MH Tri (under 20)
Fragile Dreams (under 20)
Arc Rise Fantasia (30)
Tales of Symphonia DotNW (20ish)
Sin and Punishment (10 or less)
Metroid Other M 10ish and one of my fav wii games ever, really underrated)
Exc exc
Truth be told wii had one of the best library's of the 3 consoles last gen. It just didnt have multiplats but what's wrong with nearly all exclusives? Lots to love. I'm still playing GameCube games to this day. Matter of fact I just bought a few new ones. Nin has never disappointed me in the games department and I'm sure the WiiU will be no different.
