Wii Ware launched in Australia & Europe the other day, so I thought I’d give it a go. There weren’t many games, so I got the cheapest one, “Star Soldier R” which is a vertical scrolling shooter. The visuals are awesome. The music is awesome. The controls are OK but not great. I’d like to be able to move the ship with the nunchuck joystick while holding A on the Wiimote for shoot. But instead you have to use the Z button and my hand gets sore. But the game seems pretty short and I was expecting something more for my 12 bucks, like some levels and ship customisation etc. When are they releasing Tyrian on the virtual console dammit!?
