LIT (WayForward Technologies, 1 player, Rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older—Violence, 800 Wii Points): Dark creatures have taken over Jake's high school, and it's up to you to guide him through each classroom in order to be reunited with his girlfriend Rachael. Existing light sources must be used smartly to create bridges of light for Jake to cross. One false step and Jake gets pulled into the darkness. Along the way he'll encounter twisted versions of his school's faculty, which must be battled in order to advance. LIT is a horror/puzzle game that requires the Wii Remote™ and Nunchuk™ controllers. It contains 30 levels, five boss battles, replay modes and several unlockables, including multiple endings, Dark Mode timed challenges and an unlockable character.

Wolf of the Battlefield™: MERCS (SEGA GENESIS, 1 player, Rated E10+ for Everyone 10 and Older—Mild Violence, 800 Wii Points): Following a rash of terrorism outbreaks and increasing opposition from guerilla fighters, the U.S. government has decided to hire a group of professional mercenaries to undergo secret missions, battling through enemy lines to go where no ordinary soldier would dare to go. Based on the popular arcade game, the SEGA GENESIS version of MERCS lets you play as a MERC and also adds an original mode, allowing players to choose from five different characters. Take no prisoners as you shoot, drive jeeps and tanks, and clash against huge bosses to accomplish your mission.

Sorry. Not as "pretty" as it usually is. Apparently when I tried to post the whole thing 'My HTML is not well formed.'

I was reading about Lit a while back and it seemed pretty cool. I'll watch some videos later today and decide then.

Mercs! I didn't think it would come out for the VC, thought it was too obscure. This might get a nostalgia purchase from me.

Lit looks interesting as well; I'll have to see what kind of reception it gets.

Like I mentioned in GGD, I'm interested in LIT not because it's by a developer who makes a lot of licensed cash-in games, but because they're the people behind Shantae on GBC and Contra 4 on DS. ;)

Previews for Lit seemed positive, I'll wait for a review though.

For 800 points it's a pretty good deal too.

I congratulate Wiiware on finally getting another title that sounds like a game and not an activity to spend an afternoon on and forget ever buying it.

Wonder if Rachael is really Shantae.

Hehe, am I the only one thinking that with enough support for this game, we could possibly see Shantae make her long-awaited comeback on WiiWare one day? Hmm... :P Anyways, it's games like LIT that has always made me excited about WiiWare. This service was made for developers with solid gameplay ideas that may not have quite all of the necessary qualities to make a successful retail title (budget, etc.) I've been looking forward to this game for months now and I really hope that it's able to impress. Downloading as soon as possible. I have 1000 Wii points that have been waiting for months to be spent anyways. XD

Looks like I'm eating ramen again this week... both of these look good! LIT looks like a good original, and I put tons of quarters into MERCS back in the day... what's this "new mode" in the Genesis version?

Agreed, Way Forward mostly uses licensed games to pay the bills, but when they deliver a real game, they deliver well. Contra 4 was completely awesome. I've been looking forward to Lit for some time now. I am disappointed that the graphics aren't quite as stylized as some of the excellent concept art I saw, but it still looks quite nice. 800 points is a nice price to boot.

I bought lit and at first it is simple but fun it turns into a real puzzle game trying to find ways to get light paths and the first boss fight is great and it takes a few trys to learn the way to defeat the boss the game doesn't seem to take to long i went by the first 5 stages in about 30 minutes but its really good and with the unlockables i highly suggest that if you have 800 points to pick it up

I`ve being good... had 2 crazy month at work so went MIA for alil while, but now I`m back... :) oh great.... now I`m even more confortable getting this game if you like it. BTW how many block does it need?

EDIT: oh bloody hell ... according to vc-review wiiware it needs 200 something.... I know I have pry ask this... but if I delete a game, does the save file goes as well?? Maybe I should pry wait until march (when we supposselly get the direct DL and play from SD cards, wow I`m not getting more VC and WiiWare games bc the space thingy... )

Even with all your work its nice that you make time for GS, always great to have you around ;)

Yep, its around 200 blocks suppossedly, I really wasnt paying attention :P. And dont worry, just because you delete a VC/WW game the save doesnt go as well.

thxs :D I`ll delete Toki Tori then it has about 200 something block so that should give me the space... (I`m really sick of this, and I ahve just deal with this 3 times and one of them I even did not got the game just bc it was too much time... :? hope that SD rumor thing is true)
