The control scheme appears to rely on full pixel units for movement with no acceleration/deceleration curves. You can use the speed-up power-up to move faster, but the improvement is not without issues. If you've played a shmup any time within the last 20 years, you're going to be frustrated with how slow the Vic Viper is. Which is both its strength and its weakness. It's very much a throwback to classic Gradius. What about the gameplay? Well, it's decent. Modern MIDI music sounds better than the FM synthesis shown here. In result, it sounds dated and not particularly impressive. It's bright, it's cheerful, not too grating, but it's obviously intended to evoke the feel of the NES/C64 days. But they seem to have decided to take the easy way out. (!) If Konami had redone the artwork in a higher resolution and used the Wii's graphical capabilities to smooth it out with proper alpha-blending, this game would look incredible. In fact, it appears that Konami may have reused some of the artwork from earlier games. At 480p, you can make out the individual pixels without much difficulty. I had high hopes for the graphics based on the Youtube videos, but the truth is that Konami didn't put much effort in at all. Instead, they simply stretch the image making its 16-bit graphics look even worse. Konami didn't even bother to extend the viewing area of this side scrolling shooter for widescreen TVs. While harsh, Gabriel has pretty much nailed it. I'll be playing despite these crappy graphics, definitely not because of. Don't disgrace your classic franchises anymore with this kind of visual crap. Even cutting the Wii slack for having to realize this game in limited storage capacity doesn't excuse it. They looked like this because the technology sucked. Games didn't look like this back then by choice. Compared to R-Type Dimensions, Omega Five, or Triggerheart Excelica, this title is absolutely laughable. It's a modern game which was intentionally crippled to look like a 20 year old game. From that perspective, it's hard to find fault with it.

And I've paid to download quite a few shooters from the Virtual Console service which were only a couple of dollars cheaper. Need to get off my butt and do that.If I were to view it as a classic game for something like the SNES or SegaCD, it seems worthwhile. I still haven't downloaded Star Soldier R yet.

So until that changes, if you download a lot of games through VC or WiiWare, it's going to be a juggling game.Īnd speaking of downloads. Nintendo released a statement a while back saying that they wouldn't consider either allowing games to be played straight off SD Cards, nor would they consider allowing USB hard disks as 'only geeks cared about that'. Moving them to an SD card takes ages, and then they aren't playable from there until I move them back. I've got quite a few Virtual Console games (particularly PC-Engine CDROM and Nintendo 64 titles that are huge), and my internal memory is filling up. Yeah, that too is annoying if you download a lot of stuff. You need to juggle games between the Wiis internal memory & SD card if you want to manage games that way. Alternatively you can save it to a SD card, but you can't play games from the SD card.
