The Last Story is XSEED’s most successful game ever
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
XSEED has released a ton of games in its history – around fifty titles or so. Out of the entire selection, you may be surprised to hear that The Last Story is the company’s most-successful title ever. That news comes straight from the direct source – XSEED itself.
That’s very encouraging considering the Wii was a “dying console” when The Last Story finally made it to North America. It also bodes well for XSEED’s relationship with Nintendo. We don’t know how many copies The Last Story sold, but XSEED must be pleased.
The official news about the announcement is posted below.
[Review] Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two (Wii Version)
Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Podcast Stories, Reviews, Wii | 0 comments
I’ve said about the first Epic Mickey that it was a flawed, but ultimately deeply engaging exploration platforming experience. We don’t have enough of the genre these days, so when the inevitable sequel to the game– tag-lined “The Power of Two”– was announced, I felt quite a bit of reserved excitement. If Junction Point could manage to take the good of the first game, strike out the bad, and add just a few minor touches, we would have this generation’s Banjo Kazooie. After playing the game, I still stand by that concept.
The problem is that they didn’t do it.

Metal Slug 4 will likely be Japan’s only Wii Virtual Console game this month. It will be available on the Wii Shop Channel tomorrow for 900 points.
The King of Fighters ’98, also a Neo Geo title, was the last VC game to be released in Japan. That launched on October 23.
LostWinds can’t be transferred from Wii to Wii U, fix in the works

At the moment, it’s impossible to transfer LostWinds from a Wii to a Wii U. No one is quite sure why, but there is a fix in the works.
Frontier’s Twitter account said there was “a problem that couldn’t be fixed before WiiU launch.” Fortunately, Nintendo is working on the aforementioned fix.

Walmart is selling Kirby’s Epic Yarn for an incredible price. The Wii game is available for just $8.40 at the moment.
You’ll have to pay tax and possibly shipping (if you don’t choose in-store pickup), but it’s still a great offer.

Donkey Kong Country games taken down from the North American Wii store
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Podcast Stories, Videos, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
The SNES Donkey Kong Country games have magically disappeared from the North American Wii Shop Channel.
Europe will be receiving the same treatment, as the titles will be taken down on November 25. But in North America, there was absolutely no warning given about the removal of the Donkey Kong Country games.
And no, we still have no clue why Nintendo has decided to do this.

Say goodbye to the Donkey Kong Country games on the European Wii shop
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
For some unknown reason, Nintendo is pulling the three SNES Donkey Kong Country games from the European Wii Shop Channel. Donkey Kong Country 1-3 will all be removed on November 25.
At this time, it is not at all clear why Nintendo has made this decision.
