Another week waiting!!!!!!
Aaarrrgggghhhh!!!!!!!!!
It's nearly 11am here - what time do the Wiiware games usually appear online? Or is it the case that just because it is now on the website (it wasn't yesterday) doesn't mean it is being released today?
Virtual Console - Rygar (VC Arcade, 600 Nintendo Points) - Solomon's Key (VC Arcade, 500 Nintendo Points) WiiWare - Spaceball: Revolution (800 Nintendo Points)

That's what made me think that it was coming out today - I bought the points and eveything.
Is there no way it will be released today then? Would it be there already?

....yea, very helpful.
i waiting for the reply
obviously
Hummed Monkey Island theme all day.
Day 11 after US release:
Re-completed the first four Monkey Island games. Didn't take long.
Day 12 after US release:
Figured if I convinced myself to be anti-gun control the Wii would mistake me for an American and sell me the game. No luck.
Day 13 after US release:
Paced in circles smoking cigarettes and mumbling something about how European gamers always get screwed.
Back to work today. Accidentally introduced myself to a client as Guybrush Threepwood and advised that he should "prepare to die." Suspended without pay tomorrow. Won't be so bad if part two is out.
I don't even own a Wii, but as PS3 owner I can relate (or could, until I found out that Europeans can create an US account with American PSN cards and fuel it with their normal credit card).
I just tried complaining to nintendo at:
NintendoServiceCentre@codestorm.co.uk
Hopefully i will get an answer, but probably not
Everybody want to complain too?:)
I don't have any wii points at the moment anyway. I spent the stars i had that i was goind to convert into the 400 points i needed on an irresistable 24cm pikmin doll.
I really wish telltale would lower the price though. Or give us extra discounts off the rest of their games. We are paying more, for the worst version of the game (albeit with slightly better controls), much later than the PC version. I wouldn't be surprised if Ep3 came out on PC next week.
So no new information, nobody knows anything, still waiting.
I just hope that it will be up this friday.
I have got the same reply 3 day ago
Lol
I DID buy Monkey Island Chapter 1 on Wii, and I AM aware of the general outcry on the general poor quality of the sound, graphics, glitches, etc, etc, etc.
All I want to ask is, will Chapter 2 be the same, I know with the ridiculous 60mb limit that would be hard, but its worth an ask.
Thanks,

The worst case I ever saw was Shadow Hearts: From the New World. Japan release date: July 28, 2005; US release date: March 7, 2006; Europe release date: May 25, 2007. 1 year 9 months 28 days!
That said, I find this even more ridiculous. It's an episodic game for goodness sake! Could you imagine if a TV network tried to pull this shit with the newest episode of Lost (or insert-a-tv-show-here?) That's episode one, but we aren't going to broadcast episode two next week nor give you any indication when it is coming?
What with the free episode one give-away tomorrow, now might be the time to switch to the PC version. Which would be a damn shame, as I really like the Wii version despite it's flaws. Nintendo is essentially throwing money away and I can't understand why they can't see that.
How would we know? It's not out here yet!
Day 15 after US release:
Suspended from work today. Was looking forward to playing all day - but still no Monkey Island. Sobbed uncontrollably.
Day 16 after US release:
Felt ill today, so took another day off of work. Went to the Doctor, but apparently there is no such thing as the LeChuck Pox. Instead he recommended that I "go easy on the Pirate-based adventure games". Pfft, what does he know?
Day 17 after US release:
Watched all three Pirates of the Caribbean movies. It's just not the same.
Day 18 after US release:
Several WiiWare releases today, but none of them Monkey Island. Have come to the conclusion that somewhere in the ranks of Nintendo of Europe is an evil mad-man out to get me. I will track you down mysterious villain!
Somewhere around here is another thread that went up around the time the US version came out. To summarize, the critics were fairly harsh on it, but most of the forum users said it was a fairly drastic improvement over the first. We certainly aren't done making improvements though.
In my opinion, the voices are pretty darn fixed, and the overall framerate is significantly improved. It does still slow down in places though, not gonna lie.
Sounds good to me, the ultimate is whether I could get it free on that Wii Internet Channel Refund
EDIT: Omigollygollygosh 200th post!!
*yay*
Only when Nintendo is involved.. I was a big supporter of Nintendo up until the Gamecube, when it became very apparant Nintendo doesn't particularly care about anyone in Europe, and is happy enough to make us wait, and wait and wait.
Microsoft, (and Sony to a lesser degree) don't have these problems. Xbox Live games go up over here at exactly the same time as the American counterparts, which even uses a time frame that means we'll see them early in the morning, rather than updating late at night to suit Americans. And full game releases are typically only a day or two behind, with big games like Halo usually being world wide releases, and some things like Forza actually being released over here sooner.
I know there's been a lot of Nintendo hate lately, but in my opinion, it's well deserved. All I can do is recommend upgrading your PC and buying the games on there, or waiting for it to be ported to a console that cares about its users.
