The WiiWare library has expanded considerably these past few months, with many games being excellent examples of what PALGN would like to see more of in the future. Of course for everything good, there's a heap of absolute rubbish. Once again, Bplus fails to deliver with their latest WiiWare game Bit Boy!!, while German elephants invade the service in one of the worst fighting games seen in years. Still, there's certainly something that will appeal to everyone, whether it's some glorious platforming in NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits or defending a castle in My Life as a Darklord. Until next time, stock up on those Wii points!
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)."
Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "The Final Fantasy series is one of gaming’s most revered franchises with many of its games finding themselves near the top of ‘best games of all time’ lists and simply uttering the words ‘Final Fantasy’ usually evokes images of epic quests and world class polish. But not all of the games to bear the name have been worthy of praise. Some, in fact are terrible, unplayable, ugly and obnoxious games that make you wonder how Square Enix ever approved them. So for this week’s Top 10 we’re scraping the bottom of the barrel and counting down the Top 10 Worst Final Fantasy Games."
Addition of FFXIII Lightning Returns and Crystal Bearers make your list redundant.
Though I appreciate the lack of FFX-2.
And I agree with the rest.
Since when is After Years or Lightning Returns bad?
This article is garbage, the absolute worst FF, Final Fantasy XIII is nowhere to be seen.
Also, why include a game that doesn't even exist anymore? FFXIV 1.0 is long gone...
The Final Fantasy world has some of the most creative, scariest, and weirdest locations
The lack of Ultimecia's Castle is disappointing. That area with its atmosphere, branching paths and secrets along with secret bosses, and not to mention locking out nearly all of your abilities (even saving) makes it one of FF's most intimidating areas....imo of course =p
Ultimecia's castle definitely seems like a glaring omission. I thought that waking up in the Shinra tower to find that Sephiroth had gone on a bloody murder spree was pretty damn creepy the first time I played that section as a kid.
Ultimecia's castle and underwater in FF7.
I mean it's not like you can hit the "submerge" button and accidentally land on Emerald Weapon or anything. lol
I'll always remember in ffxi when "sky" was the end game that was one of the most intense places to navigate a entire alliance through.
