This information comes from the Super Meat Boy Twitter…
“ATTENTION: there will not be a Wiiware version of SMB. we are looking in to retail Wii, bit its also looking grim. still looking though. no publishers we talk to say wii retail doesnt make enough money for them to invest. there is still a chance, i dont want to say no till we know for sure there is no chance of it happening”
Man, it’s unbelievable what has happened with the WiiWare version of Super Meat Boy. I feel like the game was announced for the platform ages ago! Xbox 360 owners have been playing it for a couple of months now while Wii owners aren’t even sure if they will be eventually be able to purchase the title. Going to retail really does seem like the only other possible option, but things aren’t looking promising.
I’m hijacking the site for 2 seconds here because I just noticed something really quite silly. And because I know I can do it without getting in trouble. But mostly the first reason.
As I was updating our sister site, GamingEverything, I noticed yet another post about gamers complaining that their Call of Duty: Black Ops copies aren’t working online, despite numerous patches by Treyarch attempting to fix the issues. Every time I’ve posted these types of posts, I never really paid much mind because I personally have had no issues with the online in the game, but then I also realized: No one is really complaining about the Wii version. All the bugs are in the PS360 version of the game!
Sort of ironic considering how the Wii is generally considered an inherently worse piece of online tech… Anyone here experiencing major Wii Black Ops problems? Do you also find it sort of funny that the Wii version works fine? Discuss with me, my lovely readers.

– Game will have the most voice ever for the series
– Can bring your girlfriends and hairstyles from LovePlus +
– Connectivity with the two arcade titles
– “Kareshi Lock” (or “Boyfriend Lock”) is the feature in which girls remember your face
– Girlfriend will ask “Who are you?” when someone else plays
– Won’t be a launch title for 3DS
– “Love Plus Productions” announced, will make LovePlus, Tokimeki Memorial and the Tongari Boushi games
You know, this actually looks pretty impressive for the DS. It might be ignored, though, as its release date is close to the 3DS’ launch.

– 30 hours play time first time through the game
– Amount will vary if players redo quests/revisit dungeons
– Sakaguchi had hoped to make a game with a good tempo and a feeling of “denseness” about the story

– That number was more than Sakaguchi expected
– Can go online after arriving at the first save point
– Character’s level and how much you’ve strengthened your weapons are reflected during the online group boss battle, so you may want to do a bit of single-player first

– Team battle royal mode online
