Missy Posted December 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 From ShackNews.com: NINTENDO NEWS: FOUR NEW CLASSIC GAMES ANNOUNCED FOR WII SHOP CHANNEL Dec. 1, 2006 - Every Monday starting Dec. 4, Nintendo will add classic games to the popular new Wii™ video game console's Wii Shop Channel. Four games will be added at 9 a.m. Pacific time on Dec. 4. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new games are: Donkey Kong Jr.™ (Super NES®, 1-2 players, 500 Wii Points): Based on the popular arcade game, Donkey Kong Jr. is the sequel to the immensely successful Donkey Kong®. Players play as Donkey Kong's son, Junior, and rescue his dad, who has been kidnapped and imprisoned in a cage by Mario™. Players use their jumping and climbing abilities to clamber up vines and chains, gather vital fruit and keys, and open the cage to free their father. Make sure to avoid the pesky birds, nasty electric sparks and creepy chompers. Four different worlds filled with numerous climbing and jumping puzzles await in this timeless classic. Victory Run™ (TurboGrafx16, 1 player, 600 Wii Points): Victory Run is a rally racing game, made up of eight different stages set in different countries from Paris to Dakar. Players can race across highways, deserts, savannahs and coastlines. In order to advance to the next stage, players must dodge traffic and cross the finish line within the time limit. Players can upgrade their race car with such parts as tires, gears, engines, suspensions and brakes. Driving on rough courses and hitting obstacles will cause damage to individual parts, so making repairs is critical. Choosing the right setup of parts may be the difference between winning and not finishing the race at all. So go out there and prove to the world that you have what it takes to take raise the gold cup in Victory Run! Columns™ (Sega Genesis, 1-2 players, 800 Wii Points): Players test their hand at the ancient Phoenician game of Columns. Multicolored gems drop from the top of the screen into a pit. It is up to players to quickly arrange the order of the jewels into lines of three or more as they fall. If gems pile up and reach the top, the game is over. Ristar™ (Sega Genesis, 1 player, 800 Wii Points): Greedy, an evil space pirate, has corrupted the kings of the Valdi System's seven planets and enslaved the people who live there. The plea for a hero is answered by Ristar, who uses his amazing extendable arms and courage to save Valdi from Greedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Jim Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Old age consists of ages nearing the average life span of human beings, and thus the end of the human life cycle. Euphemisms and terms for older people include advanced adult, elderly, and senior (chiefly US) or senior citizen and pensioner. Older people have limited regenerative abilities and are more prone to disease, syndromes, and sickness than other adults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drqshadow Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Incidentally, the Japanese Wii Manual had a few more warnings than the American. http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/top/the-japan...nual-218939.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted December 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 It's very easy to mock these kinds of manuals, but sadly some people are so fucking dumb they're necessary. The question remains: are they smart enough to even read the manuals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRetreater Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 well, that is why there is all the pretty pictures. They don't have to read. It's for all those people who refuse to play games without voice actors... /slice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 The manager of Gamestop is supposed to hold me a Wii tomorrow, so I'll be joining you all in the wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tubeman gameplay that is the Wii.

Stavros Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 I can only assume that the player attempting to improve his luck in Super Monkey Ball by stuffing a four-leafed clover into his Wii. Those read like the alternate Fight Club air safety instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Keith Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 Has there ever be this huge of a world wide release of a system than with the Wii? Seriously, everytime I look up IGN I see a new place where the Wii has been released. So far I believe Japan, Austrailia, Canada and Europe have all had a Wii released to their land, on top of the States getting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
