Cool but getting your hands on the full version 'to try it out' (cus thats what demos are for right) isnt that hard.

Yeah, that was really cool of the 2D Boys to put a demo up, and it's a pretty hefty demo at that. I've played through almost all of it, and it is a really great, little game. But honestly, I think it's a tad over-rated. It seems to be the consensus among game reviewers that old-school equals "good" (see uber-over-rated Mega Man 9 for more on that). It's definitely worthy of the $15 price tag, in my opinion, and I plan on buying the full Wii version at some point, but a "9.5"? (IGN's score of the game.) Meh...I don't think so.

Of course, considering that it was two guys (three at certain stages) who created it, sure, it's easy to be a gusher over it. Nonetheless, I don't give extra credit for those things. I personally base my opinion on how good a game is versus the price tag. Period. 2D Boy gets a huge golf clap on top of everything else, but that's about it. Still, a great game, though. Maybe if I play the full version I'll change my opinion and bleed roses too.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
