Nintendo launches WiiWare, six games available

gotta email this to my freind, he'll be well chuffed :)

wiiware has problems.

Went to logon to my wii and the only channel that would connect is the shop channel news and even the weather channel and the new nintendo channel all failed connection because of wiiware.

Nice, I downloaded the castle game. It was really fun, simple game but fun. I had money on my wii card but never used it (except to buy Mario 64 of course) cause I already had the games that I liked. But this gives me a whole lot more to choose from, I love it.

Wow, $15 for a Wiiware game... that cost more than the games on PSN and Xbox marketplace.

I pick PJ Monster for $10 over the castle game any time (and i can share it up to six of my friends).

as long as you don't get caught for piracy.

The worse thing about wiiware is the memory requirments i could understand these games if they where being used off of a hard drive.

Not of of the wii's limited flash memory space.

Do you think someone will come out with a external drive to put these games on?

Interesting option, who knows... However, i don't think big N gonna allow this, since external hdds only encourage more sharing among gamers and the gamers will be pissed to learn that their downloaded games don't run in their friends' Wii.

Are you kidding me? 5 dollars to play "Defend Your Castle", a couple year old Flash game that you can play on your computer for FREE??
