Few small announcements

Well a few small things that were announced lately for North America.

There will be a Kirby 20th Anniversary retail disc for the Wii in North America.

Also, the New Play Control version of Pikmin 2 will finally be released in North America.

Hmm, my thoughts on this are that it's pretty great. This gives people like myself, or someone new to gaming, a chance to try out an entire series.  As far as I know this series has a really great ratio of good to bad titles.

Pikmin is a series that I haven't gotten into that much but I have played other, similar games and I enjoyed them so this is great.  In addition, people don't have to pay lots of money for the Gamecube version.

What are everyone's thoughts on these series and the lasting appeal of Kirby in general?

Site chat tonight and other matters.

Site chat today is at 8pm EST tonight and there is a few things tonight we need to discuss that came up. Well basically it comes down to this. Choosing our monthly backlog game. At the moment it is looking like Pikmin,Lost in Shadow and No More Heroes 2 are the choices currently being raised on the forum. I emailed someone yesterday and I am going to hunt with them tomorrow but I kinda want to talk about this in the chat for maybe hunting with them next week a few of us from here. Xenoblade Chronicles is about 2 months away from release in America so I am happy about that. Anyway I will see you in the site chat.
