Not sure why they always make Europe and US differ by like two games. Just release the same across the board. Maybe the Yanks might learn to like cricket, lol.

Different regions have different licenses and laws. This mean that different publishers can hold the rights to the same game. Maybe localization takes longer for another. There are a lot of factors.

Pretty obvious that you don't understand the logistics involved in releasing a game. Why pay extra for a license to release a game in a region no one cares about? Example: Why pay to push a cricket game in the US if no one will buy it?

Physical games people!!!!

Sgt_Slaughter2237d ago

Luckily with the Homebrew scene on the Wii being as big as it is, you could still get these afterwards.

The Switch VC can't come soon enough. I wish they'd wait until then to phase out the Wii's VC.

Top 20 WiiWare Games (10-1)

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The official end of the WiiWare service may not be until early 2019 but we wanted to give everybody as much of a chance as possible to remember all of the great games that Nintendo’s first every download service brought us. Last week we counted down the first 10 games in our look at the Top 20 WiiWare games ever made, and if you haven’t had the chance yet you can check out those picks right here but now we switch our focus over to the very best that WiiWare has to offer so if you still have a Wii (or a Wii U) kicking around make sure to download these games before they are lost forever."
