How's it going UK? Your weekend going well? Playing lots of games? Good, good. Say, what's that one? That... that looks like LostWinds: Winter of Molodias. You've had it since Friday! It marked the 100th game on WiiWare in the UK, huh? That's nice, but you should really GIVE IT TO ME! I want it, and I want it now.
The above trailer does nothing to assuage my yearning for the game, especially after I just completed the first one. However, the U.S. has no release date yet. This looks like some great gaming, and the new effects seem to have added plenty to the gameplay. Don't trust me though, those UK bastards will probably tell us in the comments what a fantastic time they're having with the game.

Behave. No one cares here its a waste, you yanks get 95% of all releases before we do anyway and you think we remotely care about this? also check dates of tales of vesperia release. i'll dust my Wii when no more heroes 2 is released with all the blood removed like last time and let it recollect said dust.
It looks good. But crap, do I hate the Wii controller with a passion now. I need one of those charge kits. Also, I have an unopened copy of Super Mario Galaxy if that says anything.

Hmmm I'll have to look into that. Nothing more aggravating than playing the Wii and the batteries die and I'm out of them. :( A good, long game like Twilight Princess will take at least 4-6 batteries to beat.
I'd kill for Nintendo to make controllers that recharge like cell phones and ps3 controllers, allowing you to play while charging.
@dwolfwood: Yea dude, you have to get a rechargeable battery setup going, charger + 4 of them batteries (get at least 2300 mAh rating, higher number lasts longer). The Wii remotes is a total battery eater, especially the nun-chuck.
Ok ok ill trade my lost winds shovelware for your demon souls NTSC countries :D Oh i forgot the ps3 is region free! Ill just have it imported! MOHAHAHAHAw...
nun-chuck dosn't eat batteries, it's the IR camera, you can get about 30Hours out of the wiimote when playing a pointer dependent game like this but about 60hours from a game like MegaMan 9.
Anyway, yeah got it on friday not played too much yet.

You know me too well. This game is just insanely fun, way more fun and far less frustrating than the original was.
It's too bad that I don't have the Points for it right now, though. :(
