This game looks pretty interesting, but I don't think I'll be picking it up. None of the games on WiiWare have really interested me besides Lost Winds. Any suggestions for a great WiiWare game? I don't know much about many of them.

It would be cool if Wii-Ware had demos. Then I could try out a game like Bit.Trip before making a decision.

Oh well.

@Rocci1212: And I feel people are FAR too spoiled by the idea of demos. If the idea is interesting, pick up the game. It's not expensive and it won't kill you.

Besides, demos rarely ever showcase anything interesting. It's usually just the starting stage or some super easy thing set up. It's just a waste of time.

@Ueziel: I think you're a waste of time. Demos are where it's at. Been that way since PS1. Get with the times.

Was very sad not to see Gradius Rebirth pop up last week in Euroland. We will have to wait another 2 weeks before our next wiiware update, and im hoping this is in it.

Looks nice. Not super groundbreaking, but mixing a ball bouncing game (well, ball catching) with chiptunes is alright. I don't know if I'd call it rhythm action since you don't really have to be rhythmic by the look of it. It could be a nice chill-out game like Eden.

Still, I like simple, short-session games like my Wii favorite Galaga '90. This may be a good way to spend some of those leftover Wii points I've had for a year now.

@litrock: Art Style Orbient? Cubello? Star Soldier R? Mega Man 9? Lost Winds?

@Ueziel: Nope. I bought MM9 on XBLA for achievements. And I still haven't beaten the Star Soldier I bought on VC and I have a rule about buying sequels to curb my frivolous purchases.

I just skipped on Lost Winds. And to finish this up, I don't like gravity-based gameplay, so I skipped on Orbient. I honestly hadn't paid much attention to Cubello. Really worth my time?

@litrock: You totally shouldn't have skipped Lost Winds. Also World of Goo.

@litrock: It should have been Lost Winds you fucking FUCK.

I'm sorry. It was wrong of me to yell.
