I played the tutorial, 4 songs, and the calibration last night and my wife played about 5 songs and set her calibration up. After this small play session, I can honestly say that it was worth the 1,000 points. I got Strongbad two weeks ago and in my opinion, Helix is better.

Don’t get me wrong though, this game is not perfect. When playing it you can almost feel that this is a test to see how people will like Helix and that it’s only a demo to see how a full game would do on the market. It could be so much more, but for only $10 it was worth it. I could see myself playing this for quite some time.

Some possible bad things to warn about:
-It’s a huge download. I think it’s around 300 blocks.
-It only has around 25 songs and no future downloadable songs.
-It’s a rhythm game. If you like games like DDR get this. If you hate DDR type games skip it.

The 300+ blocks is one of the few things that I don't like about Helix. I finally filled my Wii's hard drive when I downloaded Helix. I had to delete 3 games to make room.

Well before i was even thinking of getting helix I erased the Nintendo Channel because I didn't feel like I needed it. After that I wanted to get helix so i had to erase Kirby 64 and Zelda ll. Once i downloaded it I also re downloaded Sonic 2, and I still have 100 and something left.

Oh, and add Midnight Pool for me.
It's a fun little game, but I kinda regret downloading it.

I saw that after I had already posted.
No worries, I fixed it.

Does Shortay accept games that haven't been released in NA nor Europe?

Sorry for the confution, these are the japanese versions, and I downloaded them fair and square from the Shop Channel, with a little help.
They are on my European wii, and the list maintainer shall decide if and when to add them to the total.

I don't see why not, if this list is supposed to keep track of the WW games this forum's members own, and this forum's members own some Japanese games.

Antster only accepts American, European, or Australian released games in the VC thread.

So I assumed the same rule would apply in the WiiWare thread.

It's a very fair assumption, don't get me wrong. I just don't think it should be that way. This is an international forum, after all. A game purchase is a game purchase, and it would be more accurate to list them. Just one Yogurt's opinion.

Alien Crush return consists of 3 tables, which are as fun as the original table of Alien Crush, similar theme with H.R. Giger-esque aliens and creatures.
I only played it a few minutes, but it's as addictive as the original. IMHO.

Space Invaders Gets Even, is like a mix of those Godzilla and Monster Games, but you are steering a little space craft and order Space Invaders to destroy buildings, tanks, anti-air towers to complete objectives like destroy 4 radio towers or capture / destroy enemy air / space craft (shaped like the original player ship from Space Invaders).

Both games look graphics-wise good for a WiiWare title, with good sound effects and or nice sound (can't say about AC Returns, did not listen).

Space Invaders Gets Even is cheap for 500 Points, but consits only a barebones pakage of Stages, additional Stage Packs can be purchased for 500 Points each, must be a Square-Enix thing.

If Shortay-01 decides to not include those, I would appriciate if he would include those downloads after they came aviable in the UK or US Wii Shop Channels.

Thanks for reading.

Why not? As far as I know this is an international forum not limited to America and Europe. We don't have many members outside NA and PAL regions but if nothing else why would we exclude people from other regions if they did come along?

Ok, I've updated everyone's lists including ZueriHB's Japanese WiiWare games. I've also added links for both of those games, but will only be doing this for Japanese WiiWare games posted in this thread and not all of Japan's WW titles.

That's a fine solution. It's important that you keep track of the lists of stuff our forumers own, but not as important for you to keep tabs on everything Japan gets.

BTW:

+ My Aquarium for me, thanks!
