"Following Capcom's hugely successful attempt at bringing Street Fighter back from the dead, Bionic Commando represents another stab at digging through the archives for inspiration. After only a few minutes with Bionic Commando it's easy to see why Capcom has been holding back on the 'true' sequel to its 21 year-old NES classic (itself a sequel of sorts to the earlier Commando), which was originally due to appear alongside the XBLA/PSN remake of the original, as the swinging mechanic is a tricky beast to harness.
The sequel takes place several years after the events of the NES original (and XBLA/PSN remake), with players taking control of Nathan 'Rad' Spencer. Despite Bionic Commandos like Spencer helping to combat the Imperialists, public discomfort led to a 'Bionic Purge' in the years between and so Bionic Commando begins with Nathan without his bionic arm and rotting on death row - kind of like a down-on-his-luck Superman without his cape. A sudden and mysterious strike on Ascension City, however, changes things in an instant, and so Spencer finds himself drawn back into action."
As much as we love our iconic characters in Video Games, some of the character designs are just bad. Here are the top 5 worst character designs in Video Games.
Genuinely a poor list. When I read a title like "Worst Male Character Designs.." I expect the author to have some grasp of artistic methods, aesthetics, and knowledge--but here all we get is a few sentences which add up to "dun like the character because they look angsty".
Prince - Warrior Within
Danta - DmC
Chris Redfield - RE 5
Rad Spencer - Bionic Commando
Remy -SF 3 Third Strike
Not worth a reading IMO

So, Nintendo's got a new mini NES with 30 games packed in.Here's 12 classics they snubbed.
It is called rights, and RARE is no longer got any rights with Nintendo. as for some of the others, maybe someday they will be added VC games can be downloaded to it FYI
Rare have got all the rights to their games FYI. The only games rare don't own the rights to are where Nintendo characters are involved I.E the donkey kong games, Diddy Kong racing etc. Hence why banjo is on Xbox ;)
i find it funny that you think nintendo didnt give careful consideration to the 30 games it included in the collection.
any games not included were left out for a reason.
Super Dodge Ball was great, but how do you forget Track and Field, Double Dribble, Skate or Die, Paperboy, Bad Dudes, Top Gun, Blades of Glory, WrestleMania, Tecmo wrestling, bomberman, etc
There are probably about 5MB worth of games here. I didn't feel like doing the exact math, but considering these games average from 8KB to 128KB My estimate may in fact be too high. The user interface will probably be about 1GB (1024MB) so I'd be surprised if this thing even holds 2GB, honestly it probably costs Nintendo less than $5 to make one. That being said I'll probably still buy one since it looks pretty neat.
Agreed it does look good. Im just being a spoiled american and wishing it was more than 30 games or at least a promise to add future titles
At one point it was reported that the Wii had enough memory to fit every game in the library of NES & SNES in it woth room to spare so I think these 30 games take up even less then your estimates
