- MadWorld on the list – Matt really enjoyed it
- Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 made the last – best sports game Matt has played this generation, maybe the best sports game Bozon has ever played
- Excitebots: Trick Racing, didn’t remove Excite Truck – Would recommended Excitebots over Excite Truck though

- Punch-Out!! – Still a really good game despite the fact it’s just Punch-Out!! again
- Some controversial ones – No More Heroes on the list even with 7.8 score
Top 25 DS games

- GTA: Chinatown Wars made the list
- Bumped down Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
- Bowser’s Inside Story will probably be a better game
- Henry Hatsworth didn’t get the love, neither did Rhythm Heaven – both were considered

- Kept the list at 15
Suda 51
- Said next No More Heroes won’t be coming to Wii
- Going to greener pastures
- No big secret, already exploring other platforms
- Could also mean that by the time the next game comes around, it could come to Wii 2
- Before you know it he’ll have something else for the Wii or DS
- He’s really into Natal
- Let’s Tap, Resident Evil Archives (basically just a GameCube game) reviews coming
- Hoping to put up new The Grinder footage tomorrow – shows off some stuff they’ve added since E3 – behind the scenes changes – some stuff that will make playing even by yourself more enjoyable
Anime Expo
- Tatsunoko vs. Capcom booth was there, a lot of people were playing it
- Naruto Clash of Revolution 3 at the convention – new trailer up – more of the same but still very cool and with Wi-Fi
Devil Survivor
- Atlus had a big booth for the game at the Anime convention
- Gave it an 8.7
- It’s awesome
- If you’re in to Shin Megami Tensei, you should pick it up
Treasure World
- Craig did a review last week
- Weird little collection game
- Sniffs out Wi-Fi signals
- Set up the system, close it, then picks up Wi-Fi spots and turns it into a treasure
- Made a cool website, Facebook style, to show off your collection
- Not too much to the actual game which is why Craig gave it a 7.5
- Craig recommends it, very innovative
WiiWare/DSiWare updates
- DSiWare: ArtStyle: Base 10 – Touch all the numbers that add up to 10, Craig didn’t like it much when he played the Japanese version but will download it tonight
- WiiWare: Bit.Trip Core – Music based shooter in a way – Bozon thinks Bit.Trip Beat still better – also still fun – devs looking into leaderboards, might do it retroactively
Reader questions
- Matt hasn’t had time with the retail copy of Sky Crawlers (Japan) – Bozon wants to do import coverage
- TMNT: Smash-Up doesn’t look as bad as it appears in videos – actually looks pretty nice – sewer area looks cool, character models are good – Smash Bros. looks better
- Drift won’t really happen in Red Steel 2, also pointing at the screen a lot so could be recalibrating secretly – Not 1:1 either
- Matt a big sucker for frame rate in certain types of games
- Doesn’t look like the Wii will be seeing a Metal Gear game anytime soon but wouldn’t rule it out completely, maybe we’ll get an old game
- Have to write for several audiences in reviews which is why there are statements such as “If Wii is your only console…” – when you’re reviewing something it’s about context and comparing it to something else
- Official HD Wii hasn’t been announced, there’s been speculation, it’s common sense, Matt thinks it’s inevitable
- Animales de la Muerte hasn’t been scrapped but in some sort of werid state of purgatory – High Voltage didn’t know what to do with the game
- For WiiWare, Matt recommends starting with World of Goo, LostWinds, Tetris Party for WiiWare
- The Conduit vs. The Grinder in this stage of development – looks nicer, multiplayer ideas sound more ambitious – First impression of The Grinder is that it’s original, looks promising, already more superior than The Conduit, online mode will be much improved – More optimistic about The Grinder than they were for The Conduit
