    Nope, they seem they want to give the Europeans a lot of VC stuff ahead of the Americans in trade of later release dates in the US.  Same thing happened with Majora's Mask.  However, maybe this is in trade of slower retail release dates.

    I have that impression also.

    In hindsight I should have mentioned Smash in the title, to rub it in :)

    I would happily swap these VC releases for sooner disc releases.

    Me too  :-)

    Just a question I am too lazy to look up LS, do you have to download DSiWare through the Wii or the DSi.  I assumed it to be the DSi direct, but it is Nintendo we are talking about  xP

    It's done through the DSi direct. There's no DSi specific software to be downloaded via your Wii at present.

    I'm not really sure I am that interested in Smash 64.  I put more hours into Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.  Although I did like some of the same stage designs. 

    I sometimes wonder why Nintendo never made DLC for Super Smash Bros Brawl.  It probably would have been a better game for it.

    There's much they could have done to make that game better, but yeah, DLC would have been good, but sadly Brawl came before Nintendo got going with the whole DLC thing. Something which they're still pretty weak at offering.

    You're only getting Cocoto Platform jumper now? I would have expected it to come out in Europe before North America, or maybe just shortly after like they did with Cocoto Fishing Master.

    Brawl had a lot weaknesses in itself.

    -Stage Edited stuff needed both a Wii Code and Friend Code.
    -Uploading stages had to be done through third party support.
    -Lack of online features to mess with.
    -No Leaderboards or anything.

    Asphalt 4 is supposed to be a rather impressive game.
