Man what a GREAT game! It's a new game (was out on pc before) but made in old school original nes graphics. This game has me hooked! Old school graphics and sound but with GREAT game play. Here is a review of it, if you havent played it on the pc, check it out. Old school goodness!

Glad u like it jmr. I have had a lot of fun with but think I'm getting close to the end which sucks,lol. Hope they make a sequel. Wish more games like this would be made too.

No there wont be a sequel. I did some research and apparently this game was amazingly enough made by some average joe in house (a Japanese fellow). He made the game (took like 5 years I believe) and he released it for free on the pc, linux, mac, in 2006. Nintendo contacted him and worked out a deal to have it released on WiiWare. You can still download the game for free on those other computer platforms though the WiiWare version has higher res graphics and different game play options. He said he won't be making a sequel as he has a real job now (not even a game designer or in the industry,lol).

That being said, I finished the game today. I found out there are 3 different endings depending on what items u find in the game. I finished on the 2nd hardest ending. It blows my mind that some random guy made this game and not a game studio, it was one of the best games I played in recent memory. Great story and weapons, best music you will find, every old school and very good.
