    Street Fighter fans, save yourself the pain and just play Street Fighter Alpha for your "Pre-Street Fighter II" fix.

    Seriously, WORST. CONTROLS. EVER.

    @shouryuuken: Just trying to save you 800 Nintendo moneys, but I understand nostalgia, so have at it.

    I also remember getting this for my TG16, popping-in the game card, and feeling like my wallet had been kicked in the balls. #wiiware

    @sandwiches: lol i understand man.. thanks for the warnings.. i know it was bad.. but im a bit of a collector and itd be cheaper than tracking down the real deal for my tg 16.

    im just showing my love for all things street fighter, but in the end.. i have more important things to spend my cash on.

    ive never actually played it for the tg 16, because i didnt get a tg 16 until like 01, and when it came out i was an nes/genesis kid. but i do remember going to this arcade at the local mall and playing it.. good times. #wiiware

    Fighting Street was awesome! It's hard to make yourself play it now, but back when I was waiting for SF II to make it to the home consoles it was the best!

    Too bad it's just the Master System version of R-Type. I thought the TG-16 version was way better! #wiiware

    I saw the word "viking" in the title and was momentarily filled with jubilation, that quickly left my body as swiftly as it came.

    If only Blizzard could be so kind, if only. #wiiware

    @Duin: The Lost Vikings 1 and/or 2 are games that I keep hoping for on the VC! They probably won't ever come though. It seems like Nintendo's been pretty stingy at games with big cult followings. Of course, the issue may also be from licensing with Blizzard. It's a pity that our hopes can be raised and so quickly dashed with the mention of a single word. #wiiware

    Does the DSi already have a photo app with a photo editor in it? I'm guessing with Sparkle Snapshot's release that it failed to capture the huge sparkle market that demands such things from their photo editors. #wiiware

    @Archaotic: it would seem that that would be on konami more than nintendo.. i mean i know there are approval processes.. but since its already been released in japan and castlevania isnt a series that hasnt broken into the western market, i dont see why nintendo would be giving konami a hard time..

    i would imagine itd be more to do with konami localizing the game.

    with that being said, i cant wait for this game. i watched a video and was blown away.. i can never get tired of remixes to classic castlevania tunes. after years of the metroidvania play style, im very happy to be playing a new classic castlevania styled game.

    this is almost what ive been suggesting for years. a brand new 2d classic vania game for the wii with sprites on the same level of games like a boy and his blob or warioland shake it. add more leveling up and more interesting magic... but go back to the classic whip gameplay (but having different power ups to the whip like ice or fire attributes) that includes directional control of the whip and swinging from objects to add variety to the platforming, and id buy 2 copies.

    sorry for the long rant, but i love castlevania. it was the first video game i ever played. #wiiware
