Lost Winds is fantastic, everyone should check it out if they can.  I'm a little bummed about Star Soldier R, I think I'll just pass.  I'm looking forward to Bomberman, Tetris, Alien Crush, and (possibly) Gyrostarr and World of Goo.  I think I'm going to really like WiiWare.

Lost Winds rules! I can't figure out how to damage the boss though!

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

A friend of mine bought Lost Winds and he said it was over after only two and a half hours.  To be continued.

I'm about done with it too I think. Personally I don't like long games, but a game like this should probably be a little longer. I heard they're making a sequel already.

I decided to buy it and I like it.  I agree about excessively long games.  I think 5 to 7 hours would be about perfect.

I was thinking Ys III length, which would be about 5 - 7 hours yeah.

the whole thing is surprising to me.  i interviewed 16 shot at hudson two years ago and he talked about how cool it would be to bring a game like star soldier to the wii but said he was told by programmers that it wouldn't work as he hoped. i thought that was the end of it until i found out it was on hudson's caravan this year.  a pleasant surprise.
No way -- you have to reveal more about this interview. :)

there is a second half to that interview which hudson has yet to post: not sure why. in any case, it was very cool being there.
