Nintendo Downloads for 5/3/10. Zombie Panic, No VC.
Kung-Fu FUNK... I thought it was something else at first, and I'll be honest I probably would have bought it without waiting on a review had I not gone back and read the title a second time.
Very clever, Funker!
I was going to get zombie panic but you just strafe from left to right on a static environment. Looks too constrained to me.
Eh, it's still rail shooter style, it makes no difference to the gameplay that instead of the character running forward it's the enemies that do that. The latter is just easier to do, especially with WiiWare's file limit. At least you also have an added layer of gameplay than simply lightgun-like shooters where you don't control a character. I'll get it at some point, it reminds me of Wild Guns and similar earlier arcade games. But probably after Sin & Punishment 2.
Btw is that on VC yet?

ESRB Rating: E (Everyone)

By repeating previously finished levels, players can try to finish them with fewer crate movements.
