Hi Nintendo fans. How's it going? Things going good? How's the Wii treating you? Having fun playing whatever it is you kids play on it? Good. Well, here's another precious gift Nintendo has given to its most loyal fans by way of their weekly Virtual Console release. Are you ready for the excitement you can now download on your Wii?
Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire
Yeah. That's it. That's all you get. With that great Nintendo library to pick and choose from, Nintendo has decided to reward their faithful with this Super NES insta-classic. Mmmm, I love the smell of fanboy disappointment in the morning.
Press release:
Today Nintendo adds a classic Super NES(R) game to the popular Wii(TM)
video game system's Wii Shop Channel. The game goes live at 9 a.m. Pacific time. Nintendo adds new games to the channel every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points(TM) to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new game is:
Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV: Wall of Fire(TM) (Super NES, 1-8
players, 800 Wii Points): Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV is a tactical
simulation game in which the player takes the role of a ruler seeking to unite China in the era of the three kingdoms of Wei, Wu and Shu. The role of the ruler is to command a range of officers with differing characteristics - some cunning strategists, others brave warriors - and strengthen the military might of his or her kingdom. Foreign policy, involving forming alliances with
certain kingdoms and hatching plans to weaken others, will play a major role
in this process. Once players have developed a powerful enough military, it
will be time to expand their borders through military conquest. Ultimate
victory will only be achieved once all 43 cities in China lie within a
player's control.

lol...and the answer is obviously not.
Believe this is still just bearable unlike the sheetfest parade over on Europe. But just.
So mine is not the only one that has been idle since Zelda :)
I'll be sticking to emulated PS1 games until something decent comes out (Super Paper Mario.) I'm done with VC until something CLASSIC comes out like Punch Out!! or Super Metroid or something like that.
God I wish I had a 360 right about now...
But yeah, wtf were they thinking?
P.P.S Image made me LOL @ work.
it could be sitting here in my room next to by 360/PS2/DS/PSP
but no...it sits upstairs in the living room cause the only people who acually play are family when they come to visit. and thats probably the next time i even turn the piece of shit on
this is what I camped out 18 hours in front of target for, jsus nintendo. Fanboi s can argue over how many systems have been sold, but the fact still remains. its a Gamecube+ without the games
i feel so fucking cheated what a waste of 250$. i'll probably never even spend that much on games for it over the next 5 years
But...games like this are sorta what ROMs are for.
Then everyone can complain about how all the good games were given in the first few months and now there's nothing left to look forward to on Mondeys, oh yeah! Fun times!
Those fucking dicks. I feel cheated as well.
Yeah, it's a Gamecube without the Gamecube games...except for the fact that it has full backwards compatibility that lets it play all Gamecube games? ;)
I'd like to see what you did at the PS2's launch, or the DS's, or the 360's. Those didn't exactly start off with 15 AAA titles in the first 4 months, so you must have just chucked them straight out the window, amirite? lol
I want to know, who the hell is clamoring for new games? Or is not beating your games the new thing?
I have a full time job and a girlfriend, but I think I game a hell of a lot still. I'm still getting through Twilight Princess, Elebits, Tiger 07, Godfather, Super Mario World, Paper Mario: 1000 Year Door, and a few other VC games. I'm curious if people are actually beating games? or just playing them for a few hours before looking for the next big thing.
I feel like I'm freaking inundated with games between my wii and 360, to say nothing of the DS. Drought my ass, gamers are just greedy.
*Passes out from over-excitement.
sounds cool I would get it maybe...
now koei where is Nobunaga's Ambition II?
hmmmm hmmm
XBOX LIVE FTW.
Well, at least Urban Champion, king of shitty games, is already on the Wii. We won't have too many (100 or so) more shitty titles to go through.
Now the line up for the Wii? That needs a lot of work. Must get my hands on Umbrella Chronicles, and Super Mario Galaxy before I'm old and grey.
I hate the Wii. Shitty games, shitty controls, shitty graphics. Enough already. No more excuses, where are the good games? Look at the piss they keep releasing. Cooking Mama? Are you serious? Oh, paper Mario. Good. Another Mario....that was made for the Gamecube. Haven't played that before. Can't wait for Mario, Metroid, Smash Bros. Such new innovative series that are taking huge departures from their previous versions....right. Ok, I'm done :)
Metal Gear Solid...4
Halo....3
Devil May Cry...4
Ratchet and Clank...what...5?
Jak..what the hell is that series up to now?
Tom Clancy: insert shit here...4
need I go on? Every console has franchises that they make multiple games for, so.....quit your bitching and just play games
As a Nintendo fan (among other consoles), I find his posts entertaining as hell. I know the Wii sucks monkey balls right now, but I can deal with it.
Bottom line: If you're ever insulted or offended by anything Summa posts, you're fucking gay.
Broham: so you don't like platformers, shooters, sports or role playing games? In all seriousness, what DO you like?
