Nice. Nintendo Power is great magazine.
So IGN has an article about all the summer games for the Wii. MP3 and PBR are coming. And Manhunt 2 is banned and currently has an AO rating.

Yup. I agree with that.

Well, double post...
I just wanted to say that this fall, tons of great games are coming out.
Pokemon Battle Revolution ftw! Normally, I don't like pokemon games, but this game looks amazing.

IGN.com reviewed it and said it was for the die-hard fans who want to see their monsters in 3-D. Very bare and IGN hopes Super Mario Strikers Charges will do better. Online was a little rough.

Also Wiiware. Sounds very exciting. @ Nintendo.com/community they were saying you first had to buy the Nintendo license then the SDK ($2000 around there) to develope a game for the Wii. Yeah if that's so I'd rather use XNA and pay only $100. Also i heard Wiiware was to compete with XNA. Kind of hard with that price tag.

Even if you don't have Diamond or Pearl, get Battle Revolution, it was worth it.

But a must-have game would have to be the new Transformers game. You can read the reviews about how bad it is for the Wii, but after playing both 360 and Wii versions the Wii impressed me more. The missions are actually challenging, and the "Free Modes" are building-smashingly, helicopter-blowingupingly, nuclear-tank-explodingly good

Just get used to the camera being controlled by moving the Wiimote and you'll be fine

Really? All the reviews I read said it was bad. Hmmm. I do like randomly destroying bulidings. Hmmm. Okay, i'll get it.
By the way: Has anyone here played Mario party 8? I was wondering because Game Informer said it wasn't too good, but they have made mistakes before, is this one of them or were they right?

I've got Mario Party 8.
Personally, I think that if you've got 4 people playing, it's a blast. But it's one of those games where if you're not playing 4 player, then it sucks

@Fusion - Yeah, I was thinking about getting Transformers.
@Moving_Target - Really? Hm. Well, I'll prolly rent it and see if I like it. Oh, and what's WiiWare?

IGN said that Pokemon Battle Revolution sucked.

Post by **Fusion** » Fri Jun 29, 2007 8:50 pm

IGN(orant) says a lot of things

Transformers on Xbox 360 is so fun. I havent tried it on Wii yet

WiiWare = XNA for Wii
Small developers can make small games for the Wii with fresh new ideals that might be too big of a risk for a large developer to make. Google for a bit more info.

I guess it depends if whether Wiiware is strictly for the Wii games (Not N6, Super Nintendo, etc. Also I think it depends on the option given to us. Would we really want every single Wii game to use a Wiimote? Would we have access to 3D and 2D games? Will we be able to legally mod games like Twilight Princess? These questions can determine if Wiiware is worth it or not. Also, when XNA came out for the first time, how much was it?

Modding Nintendo's commercial games? Probably not.

Moving_Target · Post by **Moving_Target** » Mon Jul 02, 2007 6:49 pm

Yeah Wiiware isn't for modding games. It's for new built from ground up games by small developers with big ideas. I'm pretty sure more details will be released during E3.
Also XNA was and still is free. Atleast the SDK and making games for Windows is. Putting it on the 360 is i think $100 a year.

Dohnutt · Post by **Dohnutt** » Fri Jul 06, 2007 8:50 pm

When is E3?
Oh, and if Transformers is anything like the movie, I'm not getting it.
But Battle Revolution is looking even better. I'm gonna have to look up more on it.

By "anything like the movie," do you mean swearing/suggestivity/etc.? Violence level is about the same or lower.

Moving_Target · Post by **Moving_Target** » Sat Jul 07, 2007 6:19 pm

Yeah. I'm about say. Transformers was amazing and totally awesome!

E3 is july 10-13 and E for all is sometime in October like 17th to 20th.
E3 is for Devs. only and E for all is for hte public.

Well, I'm definitely not worried about violence. I'm thinking more along the lines of short movie scenes that are... well, "suggestive".

Post by **Fusion** » Sat Jul 07, 2007 10:00 pm

Nah, barely any dialog in the game, and it follows the TFs more than Sam/Mikaela.

Moving_Target · Post by **Moving_Target** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 8:58 am

Transformers is rated Teen for violence.

I was google newsing nintendo and Square Enix is going to use the Wiifit balance board in future games!
