The freeware PC game is coming to the Wii.
Developer:
Release:
Now why would you pay for something that is free on your computer? Well if you're like me this is great if you like gaming on the couch with a gamepad!
Oh and it's on wiiware so it couldn't cost that much.

If the graphics are upgraded to a nice 16 bit or 32 bit look, I may bite. This is a great game and well worth $4, but no more.
There are new "features" but does that trandlate to a new level or such? A sequel to this game would be great.
I play it on my macbook with a wired 360 controller - I wonder how the controls will transfer to the Wii.

Really? Altering the graphics would really make me reconsider purchasing it. Cave Story's greatest strength is how well everything goes together. The music, the story, and the graphics all go together so well that altering any of them significantly might make things worse.

Less pixels would be nice. I am thinking of Pokemon Leafgreen for GBA, they took the Game Boy pixelated graphics and smoothed everything out.

what is this Pixel guy doing now. And how popular was this indie game anyway, cause my video game blogs are flipping out about this announcement.

The enemies, the sprites and the backgrounds all have a retro, pixilated feel to it (although the game has gotten a full graphical overhaul for the Wii). - Kotaku has a new story up: http://kotaku.com/5060673/cave-story-+-everything-thats-old-is-new-again

The game was just sent for re-approval according to Nicalis' twitter.
Also, their twitter has a recolored sprite of Quote for an unknown reason.

Nice, interesting to see it coming closer. I've been interested in this since it was first announced.

It's been far too long for this game to be released and it just can't live up to the expectations that that has created. Must... temper... enthusiasm....

I was saving up points for this, but got frustrated with the wait and picked up something else. Now I'm thinking we're going to get nickel & dimed with DLC. (Hate the new character sprite too.) Might still pick it up eventually, but considering the further delay I don't regret spending the points now.
