Couch Campu's Hollowman writes: Growing up, I can remember playing the living crap out of two games on my NES; Super Mario Bros. 3 and Excitebike. While many may look at Excitebike as just another 8-bit racer, it really was more than that… It was simple and addictive; a quality that makes a game timeless. The new WiiWare title, Excitebike: World Rally, is now here to cater to fans of the original, and maybe grab a few newcomers. Do I think this game will succeed in today's market, seeing as it is basically the same game as its predecessor? It's hard to say, really; nostalgia-hounds like myself will eat it up, but it may seem to archaic for children who grew up with these high-adrenaline, extreme racing games.
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "This past week, Nintendo announced that after more of a decade they would be shutting down the Wii Shop Channel. Many gamers (myself included) have found memories of taking our Wii consoles online, putting in our Wii Point Card numbers and downloading a whole bunch of classic Nintendo, Sega and NEC titles onto the Wii system. But the Wii Shop Channel was also home to a whole catalogue of new games that made up the system’s WiiWare service. It was here that many of the system’s smaller and more experimental titles came into being and many of the developers that brought us these games are now responsible for big indie series’ thanks to their original success on WiiWare. So as a sort of goodbye to Nintendo’s original download service, we’re counting down the Top 20 Best WiiWare games starting with numbers 20 through 11 today (check back next Friday for 10 -1)."
