Cave Story WiiWare

[geneshifter]

Anyone else excited for this? I still haven't heard an official launch date but it'll be a day 1 purchase for me. I've been playing it on my modded xbox and it's awesome. It'll be great to play it without slowdowns and with upgraded graphics on the Wii. Not to mention supporting a really nice indie developer

I got some points set aside for it. When is it supposed to drop again?

Haven't heard anything and no update has been given on their website http://www.cavestory.com/

I have Cave Story on my PSP and could redownload it for the PC if I wanted. I wouldn't ever buy it for Wiiware because I won't pay for a game that's free to begin with, not to mention it's nothing more than data with "slightly" upgraded graphics(Is the music remixed as well? I don't remember what else is really different.)

... What about tossing Pixel(that dude what made the game) some money for all his hard work? God knows he deserves some.

I guess some people just don't think that way.

I do agree that pixel does deserve something for his work, but I also don't pay for data. Especially when I'd also have to buy a Wii which the VC is the only good thing about it, with items that I'd rather have hard copies of over roms. Another thing is. Cave Story is free. It's not like I'm pirating it in any way at all. If it was release on disc, regardless of format, then yes I'd pay for 39.99-49.99 easily(price of new game last gen, not on portable, however I wouldn't mind supporting a portable price of 39.99.)

I'd possibly send something through Paypal or some other way to Pixel, but I can't read anything on his official site to find where I'd send a donation.

How are you playing it on a modded xbox?

edit: nevermind, I found the xbox port.

What's the allure of Cave Story anyway?

It's free. For the PC, anyway.

You mean besides the fact that it rules in the way that Mega Man 9 rules for its old/new school charm that owns almost all other contenders?

Well, nothing, really.

Anyone purchase this yet? Impressions?

I might get this after I clear out some of my 360 backlog.

For those who haven't played it, the game would be best compared to the Metroid series, being about as good as Super Metroid.

I've played through most of it on my PC and am looking forward to downloading the WiiWare version. If you just want to play it on PC, good PC controllers can be had for $10.
