This is pretty exciting, due out holiday season in Japan, so we can expect it sometime early next year.

Thats right folks, you heard it. The best RPG for the SNES is being ported to the Nintendo DS system. Check the link at the end for the Countdown Site. Question is, will it be a direct port or will it be rendered 3D and add voice acting? Who knows, time will tell. But I’m excited for it! Woo hoo!

Official Site

So Capcom announced they were making a Mega man 9 for Wiiware, but the E3 site had the game listed under the PSN/XBLA sections also. Capcom quickly responded by saying that it was only for WiiWare! Heck yes! Just clearing that up.

First day buy for me!

However, due to some circumstances, I have decided to leave Wii Live. I’m not going to explain in detail, but I feel like I could do more elsewhere. And so, I have contacted the owner of WiiNintendo and he has offered me a position there. From now on, I will be posting news at WiiNintendo. Don’t worry though, you’ll still see me around. I’ll still be on the Wii Live Forums, and if you want to talk to me more, you can always head over to WiiNintendo or email me at darkwish120@gmail.com.

I hope to remain friends with the people here at Wii Live. Maybe I can drop by in some of the podcasts, that would be fun. To all of the readers, thank you so much. I would not enjoy what I do if it weren’t for all of you. I hope to see many of you over at WiiNintendo as well. Farewell, Wii Live!

[UPDATE] Just thought I’d update everyone on the current situation. It seems things have changed and I will not be visiting Wii Live in the future, so you won’t see me around anymore unless you go to WiiNintendo. Why the sudden change? Well, I would visit Wii Live…. if it were to continue to exist. I don’t want to say too much, but I’m just giving you a heads up that soon Wii Live will cease to exist. I don’t know if you guys will like what is coming or not, so I don’t know if you will be sticking around or not, but I’m gone. The day Wii Live ends is the day I am gone from the amazing Wii Live community (though I’m already gone from the staff). So, farewell!

I’m actually surprised that no sites have picked up on this interesting little tidbit. In IGN’s latest Nintendo Voice Chat Podcast, they talk about Guitar Hero: On Tour. I don’t know how they phrase it in the podcast since I didn’t listen to it, but in a summary of the podcast, a “secret feature” of the game is mentioned. All that is said, according to the summary, is that it will be made known soon. This could be the bonus song in the game, but I’m thinking it’s something else. If I had to guess, I would say it is connectivity with Guitar Hero: World Tour somehow. If that is the case, then I will be quite happy since it’s another use for the game. Anyone else agree or have different thoughts?

“With supply constraints [of the Wii] continuing worldwide, the priority is on the current model.”

I’d be more surprised if Nintendo did release though. I mean, it’s not like anyone seriously held off on buying a Wii until Nintendo released this one.
