Retail and download releases for the week of November 24th

Boingz - yet another Wiiware game I won't be purchasing because there's no demo for me to try it out first. Looks interesting, though.

Japan: not crazy about Nintendo DSi

For me the problem with the DSI is that the new screen is only a tiny bit (almost imperceptibly) larger than the old DS.

What's the point of that?

Give gamers (especially the much older gamers they're trying to court) the choice of a real larger screen. I personally know at least 4 people (including myself) who would buy a large DS (25%-50% larger screen) in a heartbeat.

What is Art Style: ROTOHEX?

Same here. Been burned too many times already.

Rumor: WiiWare sales for third-party devs in the hundreds?

Oct 23rd 2008 5:37PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
The lack of demos definitely affects my WiiWare purchasing. I've purchased nearly 10 WiiWare games and only ended up playing a few of them. Even though the reviews were good for the others, I just didn't find them entertaining. Without playing a demo you often can't tell.

I now buy WiiWare games very rarely because I don't want to waste more money. I'll continue to purchase LiveArcade games but WiiWare is (mostly) out for me unless they add demos. I find LiveArcade is also faster and easier to use.

Culdcept Saga demo shuffles onto XBLM

I played the previous Culdcept game on the PS2 and it was a lot of fun. If you're into tactical rpgs or card-battle games, definitely give it a try.

27% of top 300 Xbox games are back-compatible

Jun 16th 2006 2:18PM (Joystiq)
#22,
I think a lot of the backlash is not because of unreasonable backward-compatibility expectations on our part. It's because Microsoft promised a lot and has severely under-delivered.

Moore stated that "we're going to get darn close to that stated goal of every title done,"

In what alternate universe is 27% considered "close"?

The game I'd love to see BC is D&D:Heroes. My friends and I had an absolute blast playing that game together and I'd love to through play it again.
