ResumePlay's Michael Perry evaluates the releases on WiiWare and DSiWare and tries to come to terms on why these have overall been a failure.
When a game released exclusively digitally disappears from distribution, it becomes impossible to play it legally. Actually, quite a few gems have disappeared in this manner, with the legendary P.T. being just the beginning of the story.
Nice message and physical should always be supported, but I am not supporting this article being set across like nine pages.
The Wii Shop Channel will be going offline very soon. Here's everything you'll need to know if you want to make some last minute purchases, or want to preserve any games that you've previously bought.
Luckily with the Homebrew scene on the Wii being as big as it is, you could still get these afterwards.
The Switch VC can't come soon enough. I wish they'd wait until then to phase out the Wii's VC.
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The official end of the WiiWare service may not be until early 2019 but we wanted to give everybody as much of a chance as possible to remember all of the great games that Nintendo’s first every download service brought us. Last week we counted down the first 10 games in our look at the Top 20 WiiWare games ever made, and if you haven’t had the chance yet you can check out those picks right here but now we switch our focus over to the very best that WiiWare has to offer so if you still have a Wii (or a Wii U) kicking around make sure to download these games before they are lost forever."
I can think of about 20 great games on wiiware just off the stop of my head and the price point is great.I own both a ps3 and a xbox and yes there are some good downloaded games but there's nothing better then wiiware when it comes to great games.Ever monday i sit waiting on what comeing out.If i'm at work me and some of the guys will call home asking are wifes to look for us.Wiiware isn't a failure and dsiware is too new to pass jugment on it yet.I can't get my download fix on the other 2 systems and neather can friends.For everything the wii gets wrong wiiware isn't one of them.
failure? what is guy talking about? the wiiware is great, now with the SD support it's just wonderful!
ok wiiware is great more than that even(love me some WORLD OF GOO) and dsiware for us is barely a few weeks old and already has great games for cheap price AQUIA and PiCTOBiTS
Wow, the DSiware may have the Master of Illusion stuff but it's already also got(here in the UK) PiCOPiCT, AQUITE, CODE, Dr Mario Express, Real Football 2009 and Pop Superstar. The last two are only included because they're full games.
It's also got The Moving Notepad coming, Mighty Flip Champs and Dragon Quest Wars and in Japan they have a bunch of other games on there including Mr Driller. It's not bad at all.
There's plenty of awesome games on the Wiiware and ones coming in the future such as FFIV: The After. The complaint seems to be that Nintendo isn't hyping them.
