I figured I might as well transcribe the block download sizes this week since World of Goo seemed as though it’d be a pretty big file. As you can see, it definitely is big size, so I’m sure a lot of you guys are going to have to clean out your fridges today. Who knows, perhaps I’ll continue to write the download sizes every week.

WiiWare

World of Goo – 321 blocks
Art Style: CUBELLO – 47 blocks

VC

Secret of Mana – 33 blocks
Street Fighter II’: Special Chapionship Edition – 32 blocks

“I am personally very excited for Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, even to the point where I begged R+D to let us play it at EVO last year, if only for a few days. It’s not up to either of us but I will make sure Capcom knows this game would have a warm reception in the West should we be able to defeat that evil-est of Robot Masters: Legal Licensing Issue Man.” – Seth Killian, Capcom Sr. Manager, Community

I’d really like to see Tatsunoko vs. Capcom in North America in its current state, but that probably won’t happen. I can still see trouble for the game even if it was changed so that licensing issues would be avoided. Come on Capcom, work your magic!
