Major League Eating comes to DS this week, so you can, I dunno pack your face using the stylus while you chow down at a McDonald's on a lunch break or something. Remind me to tell you all sometime about the abortive fried chicken eating match contest I nearly got into at West Wendover, Nevada back in 2001.
Actually, that's about all there is to the story. A lawyer friend in Las Vegas, unintimidated by my claim to clean drumsticks in two bites, proposed we meet at middle ground (between Vegas and Denver) and settle up. But we couldn't get the International Federation of Competitive Eating to sanction the duel,. And my attempts to get the local chamber of commerce to give us free shit didn't pan out, either. Also, the idea of spending an entire weekend in eastern Nevada eating chicken was not, shall we say, palatable. So we both mutually bowed out. But I'll take any of your asses on, especially if you live near a Bojangles.
Anyone picking up any of these? Let us know in the comments.

Sweet, Assault Heroes 2.
WiiWare -- another thing to drain my pockets dry.
Looks like money printing week for Nintendo with Wii Ware, We Ski, and Deca Sports.
busy week for wii this week. a lot of those i want to try.
wait, wiiware comes out this week?
I thought it was in june...
I really hope its more than just the FF title for wii ware...
No Dr. Mario. :(
Sounds like its going to be the Wii-k of games. I know, silly pun but I had to do it.
One hell of a boring week, I say.
i'm 50/50 on the FF for Wii.
Doing so hurts my Myst loving soul, but I must warn all of you to keep way from its DS port, being one of the most awful things I've ever touched. Even Final Fantasy X-2 is better than that.
Assault Heroes 2 & Rocketmen: It Came from Your Uranus.
Will probably have a look at Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King when it makes it to Aus.
Think I'd rather go buy some food (and you could get a lot of good food for the probable RRP of Major League Eating) than buy a game about eating food. The same goes for most sports games incidentally.
But fairly slow week. Myst DS might be interesting, although I could never get anywhere in the original.
you forgot lost winds!!! also tv king trivia and a poker game for wiiware
yay wiiware! boo major league eating!
What ever happened to Bill Nyne the Science Guy?
Lost Winds? Defend your Castle? World of Goo (hopefully this week)? You're missing quite a few...
Crap, I didn't realize Castle of Shikigami was this week ... I'll have to get. I've got Drone Tactics pre-ordered already, and I'll have to get Wii Ski - my gf said it looked fun. Damn! I have to stop this addiction ...
Does Toki Tori come out this week? I didnt see it in the press release but I'm buying it when its put up!
This list comes straight from Gamespot. They're missing all the WiiWare games except FF.
I'm still not convinced the list of debut WiiWare games is the true one, but if it is I'm definitely picking up Dr. Mario and Lost Winds.
Too broke!
I have been out of town and haven't even played GTA4 yet. I want to check out FF on the Wii, Assault Heroes is a must, I loved the first. I am so far behind on my gaming :(
Im really excited for Wiiware.
Wiiware!
Isn't Lost Winds also coming this week!?
Yay! A week with nothing I feel compelled to get! That's a rare thing lately.
I'm playing GTA, and the backlog has gotten huge. War of the Lions, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, Persona 3: FES, Disgaea 1 and 2. And with a lot of interesting stuff on the way, like FFTA2, Operation Darkness, Lego Indiana Jones, Ninja Gaiden 2 and Civ Revolution coming soon. I am going crazy with tons of good stuff to play!
castle of shikigami 3, and maybe some wii ware? depends if any of it looks interesting. I don't see Lost Wind in the line up ...
you guys forgot Critter Round Up?
im pretty sure u guys will regret for forgetting it because its a fun game, which is what is all about.
Hey you guys forgot the rest of the release day WiiWare line-up?!
i want Narnia!
I managed to pick up a couple of 2000 Wii points cards for $15 each this weekend (one of those Wal-Mart deals with some useless controller jacket thingy) so I've got some points for the WiiWare stuff. I'm guessing at this point that I'll just hold out for the Strong Bad games though...
I've got Drone Tactics payed off, and would kind of like to pick up Castle of Shikigami (though I think I'll go with new shoes instead). Other than that, I'm good for the week.
Nothing in terms of movie or games this week. Next week marks the arrival of the new Indiana Jones though, so that's something.
I have Castle of Shikigami III on my gamefly list. From what i read about it seemed like it'd be fun, but not worth a buy simply a rent.

Thats a list of WiiWare launch games due out on the 12th, that date set by their companies. If not all of them are out by then, just call it a "Launch Window" list.
Hmmm, I only plan on getting Drone Tactics this week.
I'm getting Lost Winds which you guys forgot to put on the list.
FFCC:MLAAK and LostWinds for sure, and... ugh... Drone Tactics is so tempting, but I haven't beat the last DS Atlus SRPG I bought yet.
Is there anyway you writers could say if its for Xbox Live Arcade, Wii Ware, or a PLAYSTATION Network thing?
I know most of the time, but I'm confused about some of these games. Don't care enough to look 'em up though.
MLE: The Game will NOT be on the DS. It's a WiiWare title.
LostWinds
Only in a world where we play a /game/ called Survivor could we have one centered around professional gluttony. Do we really call this reality, or am I stuck in a glitched Matrix?
