Go! Gaming Giant's Wiikly WiiWare Wiiview: Hubert The Teddy Bear, Bloons, Tomena Sanner, and Blaster Master Overdrive

From the review:

"Blaster Master defined NES gaming for me as a child. To this day, it is still one of my favorite video games ever made. So, when Sunsoft announced Blaster Master Overdrive last week, I was both thrilled and a bit terrified. For years, I have been saying that the franchise needs to return, but at the same time, I worry that it will get the same treatment as some of my other childhood favorites such as Bionic Commando or Spy Hunter. When the time finally came, I loaded the game with excitement, closed my eyes, and hoped for the best."

I'm still really stoked about Blaster Master Overdrive. I really hope Sunsoft decides to continue the franchise.

I never played Blast Master on the NES, but it does look interesting. My buddy loves games like that AND he has a Wii. Looks like its time to pull out the "Would you kindly..." question.

You should definitely check it out. It gets a bit difficult at times, but I had so much fun playing it. I even go back every couple of years so I can play it again. Now that this new version is out, I may return once more just for the heck of it.

oh man, Blaster Master, I remember that game on NES. That makes me wish I didn't get rid of my Wii.

Murgatroyd75194d ago

I can never understand why people get rid of their Wiis. I know there is a lot of shovelware, but there are more than enough great games like Blaster Master to make the Wii worthwhile. And if you can get homebrew up and running, it almost open even more options with emulators of all of the great classic consoles.

bloons is fun, they have it online on some game sites, so no need for a wii.

Murgatroyd75194d ago

Especially when the Wii version is just a BAD port.

LukeA5194d ago

Bloons is not worth the purchase at all, but Blaster Master is. Man that game is great.

Murgatroyd75194d ago

I'm glad you agree. With great games like Blaster Master and Bionic Commando, it's no surprise that my NES got overworked and went on the fritz. Heh.

Bloons was my jam in college.

Decent list but PixelJunk Monsters should be on there somewhere.

I'm just no good at tower defense games, but that doesn't mean I don't like them.

Casual Monday: Tomena Sanner

One of the greatest aspects of the mobile games market is that it often gives games overlooked on other platforms another shot at success. One such title is Konami’s strange sidescroller Tomena Sanner, which first found life as a WiiWare title back in 2009.
