In an effort to keep the fanboys crying, Nintento has come out with another mediocre (at best) list of releases for the Virtual Console. The list for this week:
Mighty Bomb Jack (NES)
Final Fight (SNES)
Ordyne (TG16)
I wont be purchasing any this week but I suppose its a worthy time to go back through and find a classic I may have missed in the past. Check out Bulerias's reviews for this week and past weeks
HERE.

press release from Nintendo, read on.

As a Wii owner and RPG fan, I have been a little disappointed with the lack of RPGs on both the console and the Virtual Console. But things may start to change as on May 1st, Nintendo will own 80% of game developer
Monolith Soft. Monolith is responsible for
Xenosaga which has mainly been for Playstation.

Nintendo had another great month in March with the Wii leading console sales despite worldwide shortages on the nifty white console. Nintendo's portable DS also sold more than half a million units.
If this trend continues we should keep seeing great things in the future from Nintendo.

At long last, there is a new system update for the Wii (which I am downloading as I write this).
It updates at least the Wii Shop, and allows download of the full version of the Internet Channel!
Will post more as I learn more, or find more links.

According to an article at
Bloomberg.com:
"...Electronic Arts Inc., like some of its competitors, underestimated demand for the Wii..."
The article also goes on to say,
"Now, publishers are scrambling to get titles to the 3.56 million U.S. and Japanese Wii owners who have made the machine the top-selling game console this year."

Welcome to my crappy Nintendo Fanboy site. I'm hoping that this will be a sort of site for adults who are Nintendo fans... especially the forums.
