I haven't played it yet, but if it ends up being better in terms of game play I'll end up getting that one. The graphics may not be as good, but RE4 has proved that the wiimote can still make a significant difference in terms of game play.
Im gonna keep my eye on the Wii version. If they add some new content I will most consider getting it

It's really that good that you'd get it twice? Wow

In other news, Iwata claims that we'll finally get the SD card storage fix this Spring (Click here). I'm still skeptical about it though, that is, will it be a real fix?

Yeah it was awesome, EA is going great things lately and they need people to buy their games so we don't take a step back to them making crappy games every month.

You have a 360, get it NAO!

I already know they are making a wii version to try to recoup the loses from the other games. Which is fine, and if they give me a reason I will buy it.

Yeah Gamma I'm concerned about this "fix" too. Last I heard all it was going to do was allow you to download directly to the SD card but still not stream, which in all honesty does me no good. . .(well a little good, but still not a fix), I hope things change by SPring though.

WII-KLY UPDATE: ONE WIIWARE GAME AND ONE VIRTUAL CONSOLE GAME ADDED TO WII SHOP CHANNEL

Feb. 9, 2009

No matter what you've got planned for Valentine's Day, the latest additions to the Wii™ Shop Channel have what it takes to get your heart pounding. A new WiiWare™ game transports you to an eerie high school haunted by supernatural villains, while a classic Virtual Console™ title puts you in the heat of battle as a heroic mercenary. And remember: Just because these games are made for single-player action doesn't mean you can't share the excitement with your special someone.

Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points™ to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week's new games are:

WiiWare

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.

Virtual Console

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.

I'll have to look into both titles before I consider downloading them, but I have other games that take priority first over these two! ^_^

I bought the LIT and it's really fun. It's the kind of game I'd like to see more of on WiiWare. It's kinda like a survival horror puzzle game. You have to make a path to the exit by switching on lamps, breaking windows, and other ways to make light. Not sure how long the game is, but it looks like it may be over soon. Hopefully I'm wrong.

ONE WIIWARE GAME AND ONE VIRTUAL CONSOLE GAME ADDED (AND ONE SURPRISE COMING) TO WII SHOP CHANNEL

Feb. 16, 2009

Outer space meets inner space at the Wii™ Shop Channel this Presidents Day. A new WiiWare™ title will have you soaring across the astral plane, while a vintage NES™ shooter for the Virtual Console™ invites you to battle your way through the innards of an alien creature. Choose a hot new WiiWare game or a Gradius spin-off. It’s what the presidents would have wanted.

In other news, the Wii-kly Update has a fun surprise coming soon for all our fans. We can't tell you the secret just yet but maybe we’ll offer you some hidden clues. From AZ to NC, if you’re a fan, your applause could rattle your walls, windows, door. You might enjoy this news whether you live in a brick house or Vanderbilt dorm. Even people living along Route 286 in rural Pennsylvania ought to be excited. It’ll feel like a bunch of birthday greetings and, really, who could ask for more? But that's about all we can say for now, so be sure to check future Wii-kly Updates.

Nintendo adds new and classic games to the Wii Shop Channel at 9 a.m. Pacific time every Monday. Wii owners with a high-speed Internet connection can redeem Wii Points™ to download the games. Wii Points can be purchased in the Wii Shop Channel or at retail outlets. This week’s new games are:

WiiWare

Evasive Space™ (Yukes Company of America, 1-4 players, Rated E for Everyone – Mild Fantasy Violence, 1,000 Wii Points): Launch a one-of-a-kind mission to rescue the stars. The universe is going dark, and it’s up to you, Konki the Stellar Guardian, to set things right. Dr. Dark Matter and his roving band of space thieves have stolen many of the Constellation Stones that make up the heavens. It's time to suit up, power up, recover the Stones and once again bring light to the night sky. Using the Wii Remote™ controller's unique pointer capabilities, simply point and thrust Konki through 20 dangerous time- and collection-based missions in the harshest of environments. Navigate through narrow, mazelike astral caves riddled with space worms, steam pipes and mining drills. Explore vast space stations while avoiding turret fire, mines and huge crushing gears. Weave through cluttered asteroid fields and gaseous planetary rings. Evade the hazards, pick up precious items and ship upgrades, and save the Constellation Stones before the night sky is lost forever.

Virtual Console

Life Force (NES, 1-2 players, Rated E for Everyone – Mild Fantasy Violence, 500 Wii Points): This classic shooter, originally ported to the NES in August 1988, is a spin-off of the seminal Gradius series. Pilot the Vic Viper through six stages of intense action, alternating between horizontally and vertically scrolling environments, and take on wave after wave of enemies. Destroy particular enemies throughout the game (which takes place within the body of an enormous alien) to release power-up capsules and equip your ship with your choice of more powerful weapons, extra speed and shields. Utilize the power-ups carefully, though, as a fearsome guardian lurks at the end of each stage and won't be easily defeated. You can go it alone or bring along a friend to take on the challenge simultaneously. Do you have what it takes to save your planet?

Now I've heard some hype for Evasive Space. I'll look at the info, screen shots, and videos for it and then go from there. Anyways I'm probably going to download some stuff. As for the VC title it is going to be a pass till sometime in the future. :P
Also some users on Nsider two came up with a theory about the "surprise" I'd like to post.

First up: From AZ to NC...a route known as Route 64 connects AZ to NC. First clue.

Second up: You might enjoy this news....Vanderbilt Dorm...Vanderbilt University Mascot is the Commodores. Second clue.

Third up: Even people living along Route 286 in rural PA ought to be excited...Route 286 passes right through Commodore, PA. Third Clue.

Fourth up: It'll feel like a bunch of birthday greetings...No idea on this one, yet 16x16_smiley-wink.gif

So there you have it. Commodore 64, who's ready. NOTE: I did not come up with this myself. This was pointed out to me by several awesome NSider2 users.
