Big news, Wii Ware is out

Hey Dudes and Dudettes I'll keep this short cuz I don't wanna eclipse Antons awesome pics yet, but Wii ware is out and about and I recommend you check it out. What is special about it? These are unique games crafted by various people for any price they want to charge that you download like the retro games only these ones use the wii remote's special functions. http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2008/05/12/what-wiiware-games-are-you-buying-today/

This looks neat. Any other reviews or personal insights you can give us on the other games?

I spent the day at home after a dentist and doctors appointment with ice packs on my foot cuz I pulled a tendon exercising so that gave me time to try the new Crystal Chronicles for the Wii. Let me first say I was very skeptical at first and had to force myself to play it. I think I was mistaken tho as I spent the next 5 hours playing it. Its a bit costly for what it is but they have done a good job and have gone in a bold direction with it. Its sort of a sim game but also reminds me of harvest moon a lot. If you have some spare cash I recommend trying it out. The race expansion and dungeon expansion cost 8 bucks and 3 bucks respectively but don't take up much more of your Wii drive. I just got to the point where you could assign people to a second job (thief) instead of just a generic adventurer and I got a second job board so they could multi task. One tip for anyone playing this game: put your weapons shop next to your armor shop and next to the job boards cuz your guys will go there almost every day even if they don't need to. They wont spend money if they don't need to but they will waste time walking instead of being out fighting monsters and its best if you can greet them when they come home cuz they are often discouraged. I still have to try out lost winds... I cant wait tho considering how high of quality fun this was. Btw if you loathe harvest moon games don't try this one, as glowing as my review is, it is meant for those who like these kinds of games. p.s. the graphics are great for how large the file is.
