[quote name='Plinko']Has anybody here bought Pokemon Snap? Does it hold up well? I've never played it, and it would be nice to have a relaxing game to play once in awhile.[/QUOTE]

I did. And Yes, very much. It IS well worth the 1000 points.
I'm very disappointed in the "POST YOUR PICS ON YOUR MESSAGE BOARD!" because you can only choose ONE pic a day...How stupid is that!

Thanks for the reply--looks like I'll be picking this one up. If it's good, maybe high sales will encourage Nintendo to make a sequel for Wii.
 
Just downloaded Pokemon Snap. I actually had 3200 points, that was a nice surprise. I forgot I had bought 2 2000 point cards at TRU for $30. I hope they have another sale sometime, I'd like two more. I really want to try Sin and Punishment, but unless a big game comes out between now and then I won't be spending any Wii points so I'll have enough for Secret Santa.
 
Since this thread is more related to the entire channel---check your WiiWare guys. The Photo Channel 1.1 is up.
Not that it's a big deal, but still.
I do like how you can choose a picture to represent the photo channel on your main menu :)

Starting in January, I'm going to make a new thread and it's going to be a Wii Shop Channel thread, rather then JUST calling it a VC thread. This way, updates and WiiWare titles (and channels) can all go there and be discussed.
 
[quote name='drfunk85']Your math is wrong.



Anyone have any comparisons between Baseball Stars 2 and Baseball Stars for the NES? I used to love that game.[/QUOTE]


the difference is that in Baseball Stars 2, it has season and team management and player development..a la baseball stars 1. The Neo Geo Ver..is complete arcade. Just Solid Baseball and thats it.
 
Off Topic: If anyone is good with Photoshop/Paint.net and is feeling creative.. PM me. You will be a nice contribution to the next thread. Nothing big, as the things I have in mind could take someone an hour TOPS. All credit will be given to you. :)

EDIT: ...Maybe I'll make that in a contest forum..and the winner will get a VC game :) ...:whistle2:k
 
So I put $10 on my VC account today to get Pokemon Snap...and for some reason I just couldn't do it. I wanted to, but I couldn't bring myself to spend the $10 on it.
 
BASEBALL STARZZZ!!!! 2.

Crap, I just picked up a few titles yesterday too. Damn this year has been a bear on my wallet. :( Thank goodness for CAG.

Can the winner get Pokemon Snap?!?! I still haven't brought myself to buy it, as much as I want to.

:lol:, well Strell was the only one who responded to that. If other people ARE interested, I would not mind having a contest. Winner gets whatever they want. Yes, even Pokemon Snap. Hell, even Sin & Punishment :)

BTW, did you get my Electrabuzz? It begins! bwahaha!
 
Stupid question... so the Photo Channel doesn't play MP3s anymore. Does this change the functionality of, say, ExciteTruck at all?

I'm assuming not, but I figured it doesn't hurt to check.

No, because that would be an in-game decoder versus the channel itself.

Edit: Didn't want to double post, so here. I DID start that [thread=163312]Contest[/thread] to make banners for the new thread. Winner gets ANY VC game they want. So go enter :)
 
I should probably sell my mvs cart, but playing with the arcade stick is better.
Gotta love the animation when you hit a line shot in the pitchers gut.
 
[quote name='Tsukento']Last year, Nintendo promised us Super Mario RPG would come out this year.

STILL WAITING, NINTENDO. TELL SQUARE TO QUIT DICKING AROUND! :([/quote]

Christmas is still coming! Hold out hope!
 
so, does anyone want to be on my "Mailing list" for the daily Pokemon picture?! Today is day 3, and today's picture is of an ANGRY Jigglypuff (with a backup singer, woot!)
Yesterday's picture was of happy Squirtles to see an apple :)
Day before that, was Electrabuzz who had a little too much to drink.

Ok, I'll admit. This feature is kinda cool. The 1 a day is lame, but whatever.
Just lemme know if you don't mind getting a picture everyday. Really. :)

[quote name='integralsmatic']sure why not. im down lilboo.[/QUOTE]

Make sure you add my Wii # to your console. I just added you now, so once you go bold for me I'll add you to my annoying daily Pokemon mailing.. LOL

Anyone else want to be disturbed by a flashing blue light, to see it's a Pokemon?!?!
 
[quote name='E_G_Man']I feel so dense..... but can someone tell me how to post the pictures you take in snap?[/QUOTE]

Go to Gallery on the main menu. Put a picture (up to 4) on that square of 4 pictures. Go to enlarge, pick a picture, then hit "-" on the remote. It'll be posted.

Go to the Operations Guide too, it's the 10th option. It explains posting.

Thanks, I guess I should of read the Operations Guide before posting. :whistle2:#
 
Looks like Europe got the following today;

Mega Man 2 (Nes) - 500 points
Top Hunter (Neo-Geo) - 900 points

And that's in addition to their special update on Tuesday with Pokemon Snap and the channel upgrades (gift + photo).

Here's a question; when are we going to start to get the Mega Man games? I know we have the collections here, but Capcom messed up the controls damnit.
 
Bought two Wii Points cards. Wii Shop was being terribly slow today, so all I bought was Super C and Eternal Champions.

Ohhhh god, such great memories. Espcially with Super C.

...Where the hell is the FIRST Contra, Nintendo/Konami?!

Europe also got Cybernator for SNES on Tuesday. They got 4 games this week :applause: Good for them.

Mega Man 2 will come. It's unknown WHY we get some of the games SO far apart. When Vegas Stakes was released, I believe it came out in Europe first..and that was in July or August. I figured "Oh, awesome. It'll be HERE soon!"..but..we got that 3 or 4 updates ago.

So we WILL get it..but...yeah. It could very well be this Monday...but then, it may be the second week in February. Sigh.

You seem to have forgotten, I am the only european on the board ;)

Errr...if you have a DS, just buy Contra 4. Both of the old contra games are on there: Contra and Super C.
 
I can confirm 1 of Monday's game.
Monster Lair for the TGCD, 800 points.

Hopefully, along with Bubble Bobble or Mega Man 2.

EDIT: :rofl: So I played around with Hudson's Japanese site. It looks like Cho Aniki will coming to their VC this Tuesday!

Hopefully you're right. Mega Man 2 + Bubble Bobble = Win!
 
[quote name='Plinko']Monday's mediocre releases confirmed on GAF--

SNES--Cybernator
Genesis--Alien Storm
TG--Monster Lair[/QUOTE]


Sigh. Was hoping for Mega Man 2. Or even Bubble Bobble.
Oh well, maybe NEXT update (the Christmas Eve update!) will be something special!
 
[quote name='Slim Gatsby']Why aren't they putting up good stuff that people are going to want to send with Wii Gifts?[/QUOTE]

Because there's close to 200 titles out now and there IS a pretty good amount of GOOD games to give as gifts.
PLUS we have say..another 4-5 years of VC releases.

So, soon :)
Or.
Eventually :)
