Wow a new Gradius game??? That's pretty sweet. Lord knows I have enough shooters but should this one get good reviews I may have to pick it up.
And I'll just pass on Alex Kidd. One of those games in a lifetime is enough punishment.

Yes and no. There has never been a Gradius Rebirth before so technically it is a new game and that's why its considered WiiWare. However, it's really more of a collection of Gradius greatest single levels combined into one game and remixed/updated.

Oh I see. I was never a huge schmup fan. I want Contra Hard Corps and Contra IV on Wiiware please.

Contra IV killed me. I haven't been molested like that since I was an alter boy. Seriously, I couldn't get passed the 4th level or so. Really made me want to cry. I used to be good at Contra, swear to god.

I try stay the hell away from Contra games and shmups. My butt is still sore because of Ikaruga.
