How awesome My Life as King and LostWinds are? And how cheap, money-wise? It really makes me wonder why I keep dropping $50-$70 per game at stores, when I can download gems like this. Occassionally a game might be worth $60, but usually it isn't. By the way, I only saw 7 games on WiiWare ... is that normal? I thought I read somewhere, something about 100's of games ready for WiiWare? Or something? Maybe I just mis-remembered...

ya its outrageous how some indie developers can pull of such amazing games at such low budgets but higher budget games arent nearly as good.

and its not you, nintendo cant release all wiiware games at once... that's not all bad since some games may be overlooked. if they released all heavy hitters they have, then maybe some games (MAYBE!) like lost wind would have lost some sales, that might or might not be made up for in the future.

Well when you don't have to pay for creating discs, packaging, distribution, and little to no advertising you can afford to sell your game for less. Here's hoping next generation most games will have the option to be downloaded, and the companies will pass the savings on to us.

dont get me wrong, LostWinds is an amazing game...and so far FFCC:MLAAK is pretty fun...but neither of these games can match the longevity of titles you purchase on a CD...I'll be playing MK:Wii and SSBB well into later in the year, while I'll just be remebering how fun LostWinds was

Yeah, it's crazy how Nintendo always seems to give its customers the most bang for their buck. I love My Life As A King and it has curbed my Brawl addiction, but only a little.

3 hours is too short but for $10 is a steal. I hope WiiWare will serve to really stick one to the shovelware making bastards.
