I just don't like it at all, even when they send me some kind of message and my Wii is glowing, I usually ignore it... in fact it's glowing right now, but I'll probably continue to ignore it.<br /><br />I am really glad they are doing this finally, so I can actually check one some of those games that I was interested in buying. Still though, Wii seems dead.Amado Bustoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15217526779565912727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5460113087138352871.post-26901371171805642512010-11-22T18:59:18.839-08:002010-11-22T18:59:18.839-08:00@Coffee Yeah it sure is a mystery.

They may have not seen enough sales to justify the effort the first go around, but I think they realized that their online shop is not consumer friendly. I bet half the people didn't even know about the demos the first time around. They rarely send out messages to Wii owners through their Wii mail service (whatever its called) for promotion. <br /><br />I gave Jett Rocket a go. Not bad for a basic platformer... reminded me of Super Mario. It's surprising how much you can do with the 50mb limit. It makes me wonder about Super Meat Boy and if they'll be able to compress it down. I'm not a game designer so I can't say to much.<br /><br />By far "And Yet It Moves" was my favorite demo.Brad J.

So after 4 years Nintendo is really starting to get more serious about its online store and push sales for games that have gotten lost in the Wiishop Channels crappy design."<br /><br />I don't know why they started the demos, then just stopped it...makes no sense to me, but then again I don't work at Nintendo and have their mindset.<br /><br />Perhaps it was accidentally stopped, when one of the piles of cash accidentally shifted over on the "Stop Demo" button.<br /><br />I'm just glad it's back, and I'll get trying out Jett Rocket probably tonight...coffeewithgameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381995224445934504noreply@blogger.com
