Wii Warm Up: Wii Ware progress report

I really haven't been keeping up too much with this. I'll admit the FF game sounds interesting but a lot is going to depend on price for me. If these games start going over $15 forget it. Also, it's hard for me to get excited about Wii Ware when we've been waiting months for Everyones Nintendo Channel. Wii Ware seems like it's years away.

It seems like it'll be filled with mostly flash-like games.

Final Fantasy should be good if it's deep enough.

I'm not interested in any of it until they knock off that whole "Points only purchasable in increments of 1000" garbage AND provide a way to switch downloads to a different system in case I ever replace my Wii.

I'm interested in Pop, Eternity's Child and the Final Fantasy game (I'm not much of an RPG gamer, but I like the artwork)

I WANT TETRIS!!

FF:CC, Dr. Mario, Sam & Max.

Has anybody else been wondering how we're going to store these games? I'm thinking it's going to be one of two things: a hard drive will be announced at some point in the near future, or perhaps any Wii Ware you purchase will be streamable from some sort of central server that Nintendo provides.

I guess it all depends on the game, I suppose.

I had heard a rumor of a updated version of WWf No mercy with the current roster. I would buy that game in a instant. I'd love to see the hd super street fighter 2 but I don't know if that's going to end up on wii ware.

I agree with you Mr.Khan about the 4-5gig flash or sd memory. Plus the sd card or flash stick would look "sleek and sexy". A hard-drive would be nice but it would not look as good as using flash. I think that's the reason ninty's going to use flash. Also the 4-5gigs could be right since I added the Megabytes for the Guitar Hero 3 tracks up and it's 443.5 mb's(18 tracks for the 360 verison currently). That's actually pretty small. I admitted 4 songs songs since those four you can only get on the 360 anyway, which is the Halo Theme, Flyleaf,AFI songs, and Marilyn Manson song.(If anyone is curious). Anyways this could also show that Wiiware titles such as Dr.Mario maybe are only 100-150mb's. Cause the 360 and ps 3's games usually aren't that big. I did download Crash Bandicoot 1 for my ps3 and that came in at 450mb's. So on a whole maybe not that much is really needed for the wii in the long term.

Asking us what we want is not a progress report. You interrupted my multi-blog power skimming by making me stop... and read...nothing new! yeah,i know, I'm wasting more time complaining about it.

The heading for this post should be "Filler: discuss crumbs of Wii Ware info 'cause we've got nothing else to work with. "

The real question is how will this change Virtual Console releases?
Why would Nintendo continue putting up crap, when 3rd parties are making fresh creative new games for the same cost?

Huh? Nintendo has a console? OH right, couldn't see mine under a huge layer of dust.. =(

Really, Nintendo... it's time to pull your collective fingers out and get WiiWare OUT THERE.

I'm sick of waiting.

Every week there's new awesome titles added to XBLA like Sonic HD (and Rez HD), while we're stuck(*) with the virtual console mega drive original.

(* "stuck" meaning we have no other option, I'd buy a graphically-enhanced Sonic 1 if it were an option!)

Seriously. How hard can this be?
