Nintendo Downloads for 5/10/10. OBJECTION! NO VC AGAIN!
Aren't VC releases on a different day than WW?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The optimist proclaims we live in the best of all possible worlds while the pessimist fears this is true. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
No they all get released on the same day. So this makes it two weeks without a VC release? Ouch. What the hell happened to the Virtual Arcade??
Oh well at least I'll pick up Photo Dojo. I'll give the DSi this, there are some high quality free downloads for it. Sounds like this could be good.
Virtual arcade am fail. There are so many great arcade games just begging for a release.
Yeah I'm utterly disappointed with it. 2010 was supposed to be the big "year of the Wii arcade" for me. The DataEast collection and TvC were good starts. But there hasn't been one notable VA release this year. It's depressing.

We need a VC version of Boong-Ga Boong-Ga.
Now why would I need that?
It's like YOU asking for a Doctor and Daddy simulator on VC.

BTW... I'm going to be referring to you as El Fuerte from now on.
( You would have to read the news from last night to understand why.

Is that the arcade game where you stick a finger in strangers anus?
That's the one. I've said it before, the Wii Vitality Sensor would make a home version of this game a reality:
No new VC releases for 2 weeks now? FU, Nintendo! 
Where's my Pilotwings 64? Nintendo = bastards!
F*** this. I'm seriously thinking of getting all of the old Nintendo consoles again. At least that way I can play Pilotwings 64, Goldeneye and a crap ton of other awesome games that will never come out on VC. AND I won't have to worry about DRM nonsense anymore either. AND I will be able to play Star Fox 64 with rumble! AND my cat will have some new cables to chew on!
--er, wait. That last part may not be a good thing.

PHOTO DOJO LEADS A FIST-PUMPING LINEUP OF NEW DOWNLOADABLE GAMES
May 10, 2010
Admit it: You've always dreamed of quitting your job and roaming the countryside as a legendary kung fu warrior. Thanks to the new Photo Dojo™ game for the Nintendo DSiWare™ service, your dream is finally within reach. The game features customization options that let you add your entire body and voice to wild kung fu matches. It puts you right into the middle of a hilarious fighting game. Best of all, it's available for a whopping zero Nintendo DSi Points™ now through June 10. That's right – ZERO! Don't wait – 200 Nintendo DSi Points will be required for download starting June 11.
After you download Photo Dojo, be sure to keep an eye out for some of the other big games Nintendo is releasing during the next month. We're starting off this week with a hand-held version of the cIassic Earthworm Jim. Not to be overruled, a new Phoenix Wright™ Ace Attorney™ title serves up some justice for the WiiWare™ service.
Meanwhile, the "Big Name Games" section of the WarioWare™: D.I.Y. series keeps on growing, packed with new downloadable microgames from the industry's most talented designers. This week's addition comes from Jason Schreiber of Powerhead Games, creator of the award-winning Glow Artisan for the Nintendo DSiWare service. New "Big Name Games" will be added every Monday through July 26, all available to download for zero Nintendo DSi Points to anyone with broadband Internet access and a copy of either WarioWare: D.I.Y. for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems or WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase software for the WiiWare service. Visit the Nintendo Channel on your Wii™ system today to learn more about these games and to get a look at Jason Schreiber's awesome new microgame.

Complete your game setup by customizing backgrounds and choosing from three awesome soundtracks, then prepare for battle. Two players can share one Nintendo DSi™ system to face off against each other in a one-on-one grudge match, while single-player mode offers the chance to pick your favorite fighter and take on relentless opponents of your own creation.
