Playing some Project X Zone for the 3DS. It's pretty fun so far. Though most if not all battles in this game is just repeatedly mashing the A button.
I also got Muramasa Rebirth on the PSVITA. So far, not much of a significant difference than the Wii version other than being at a higher resolution. This game supposedly has extra content.

Well still working on Odin Sphere, just grinding endlessly. At least till I can get further.
If anyone has beat this game they are one hell of a player that's for sure.

I've decide to replay Pokemon Pearl because I want to beat the Champion again. Also, have been having Pokemon nostalgia lately.

Picked up New Super Mario Bros. Wii yesterday and I've been working the original game and the mod Newer.
But man I just don't know what to say other the NSBW (Original not modded version) is hard as hell.
Thank god I have plenty lives... because I'm dying way to fast did anyone else find this game hard or is it just me?

I've heard a lot of people claim that the game is really difficult, but I borrowed it from the library and didn't have much trouble at all with it. I actually managed to beat the whole thing before having to give it back, and that's with having to share the family Wii with three younger siblings. If I had to guess, I would have to say that its been so long since a really good 2D Mario game that maybe it's just possible that people are out of practice.
May the way of the Hero lead to the Triforce.

Yeah, I didn't think it was too hard, I thought it was pretty fair. And an awesome game. I thought it was leagues better than its DS counterpart.

That's probable why I suck at the moment. I don't know though <.<

For me its hard, its actually one of the hardest things I've played on the Wii so far. And by far the game is awesome but man it takes skill to get passed some of the areas in the game that for sure. You know I've not even got a chance to play the ds game
I never could afford it. At least when it was new, I might look into getting now maybe, it might be a bit cheaper then it was when it came out.

I'll be honest, I never cared for the DS version. The level design was alright, but I just didn't feel the immersion at all. Something was off about the graphics, and the music just wasn't very good either. It was alright, but not special. Yes, the Wii one uses the same main theme, but it's composed much better. It just didn't seem all that fun in the end to me. But if you can find it cheap, then go for it.

I know it's beating a dead horse at this point, but I really don't enjoy the NSMB series as much as I want to. It's just that all of the games in the series feel like the same game. It's like Nintendo just takes the exact same game and mods it instead of making a new one. Sort of like how if you've played Super Mario World to the point where you're tired of it, playing most hacks of the game isn't going to change your mind. They'll be something that kills time, but not something that makes you stop afterwards and say "Wow, that was a blast! Man, I can't wait to see if they're going to make another one! I wonder what they can do to top that!".
Newer is a bit better in that regard. They modded it so that they can create and destroy ANYTHING when a switch is pressed, so it's an honest surprise on what's going to happen when you press a switch. It's still NSMB Wii, but it's still somewhat different enough that it's enjoyable. (The fact that it's fan-made so you go into it with lower expectations than if it was professionally done helps a little bit, I guess)
By the way, if you think that NSMB Wii is really hard, once you finish it, go get a hold of DKC Returns. That game's fun, but hard as hell. I beat NSMB in about a week or so, but I never got around to beating this one. Just be warned, the rolling physics are slightly different (Good god, Sonic fan moment. I feel like I'm complaining about one of those!), so you might need to get used to them if you grew up on the Super NES games. A line of enemies that you would think a single roll would carry you through will end up with the last one hitting you.

Playing my free copy of Metro Last Light on PC. I have to say, the visual look sick as hell. This looks to be a fun game.

By the time you beat it you'll probably end up disappointed in NSMBWU, which in my opinion features easier, but better designed levels.

You know the easier levels of NSMBWU would be totally welcome after this experience with NSBW, as I just finished the game... The only thing I can say is why is this game so unforgiving I mean no matter what you do the levels are damn hard... and I mean hard.
And I was shocked when I beat bowser for the first time I was like "Hell yeah I beat it" But then Bowser grew to an extreme size and was about to impossible to make a lot of those jumps, I dyed like 20 something times before a strike of luck and made it to the end and hit that switch.
This game... I don't know what to say other then it pisses me off on hard it was and how ridiculous some of the levels were it didn't feel like a mario game it felt more like hack of a mario game in which your goal is the suffer with everything that the designer has done to the game.
Every which way you look at it the game brutal...
The game did has some good moments but not many mainly the bad overcast the good.
This game gets a 2/5: Would have got a higher score if it wasn't for the ridiculous difficultly.

Now that I'm done from that horrific adventure I'm going to continue on with the mod Newer that was made for the game.

Wow. I'm surprised you found it that punishing. I never felt it was truly that unforgiving, and heck, I beat Bowser on the first try. But I'll second what everyone else is saying about Donkey Kong Country Returns being unforgiving.

Ridiculous difficulty? I found NSMBW, aside from the optional levels, to be pretty standard. Granted, I played through most of it with a friend, but still. Comparing to a hack seems pretty unfair. Have you ever played a Mario World hack. Those are about 5 times as difficult as NSMBW. NSMBW was pretty average for the series, just harder than the DS version (which was a fairly poorly designed cake walk). Also, giving a game a low rating just because you're bad at it seems kinda harsh.
