Hack your Wii, install Gecko OS, buy J-games no problem. All you need is an SD card.

That game was so shity. Who ever thought it was a good idea to make a game where you can't move and shoot at the same time.

game is fuck awesome it just put off all the spaz handed cackmeisters who didn't get the game after 5 minutes and wrote it off (albeit not aided by the awful open area at the start of the game)

In other words.

"it doesn't get good until after the 30 hour mark"

hahaha. well, i won't lie to - my first reaction to the game was "WTF is this trash!?" but once you get in doors, and after a few frustrating deaths the "penny drops"

it's certainly not a Kirby Air Ride scenario

Anyways, PN03 is about 200 yen in Japan and worth every single yenny, i assume it's equally as cheap in the US.

PN03 was so awesome. It was very much an arcade-style shooter despite its third-person action game appearance. Loved how you could go back and replay special versions stages, and they'd change their room order every time, too. Had a blast with the game. I imported it for full price originally, bought an American copy for like $10 new back in 2004 or 2005, and bought a copy when I was in Japan DIRT CHEAP to play on my Wii. Still have all three copies. It's due for another play-through.

Has anyone ever tried playing it on a Game Cube PC emulator?

I continue to be pleased with the purchase of those ~~$50~~ $20 Sennheiser earbuds. They have good separation, and the bass is actually a little overwhelming. Unnaturally boomy for earbuds. And they block climate-control-fan noise better than the HD-555s.

I picked up PROTOTYPE against my own better judgement and played the first chapter. It's like the Sega HULK game except less sucky and there's some challenge, at least in the early game.

I wish MS PR was cheap in the US. It's still $60 wtfffff. There was a $15 Target clearance months back and I looked for it but missed it. Really would like to play this game more (rented it) when it's <$20-30. It has to happen someday!
