I've been thinking about the Wii Anthology, but keep hearing mixed things about it.

Meh, downside of video games journalism (and dipping into it) is you lose that innocence you had in buying any buggering game on the shelf and realising for yourself whether it's crap or not. I need to take a few more chances like that really. It's the only reason I got Shining Force II on Mega Drive when I was a kid (and subsequently got introduced to RPGs). Good job I looked past the crappy box art for that one eh?

Anyone played MSA on Wii? Any good? I mean, the addition of MS6 is almost enough for me. :)

Dunno about the Wii version, but if its anything like the PSP version I have (which it is) its worth every penny. Seven games on a Wii DVD for a reasonable price too. These are games that you'll actually conquer and go back for more.

Despite these games being 2D, they are a damn lot of fun for a quick or long gaming fix and arcade classic too. I pray that Ignition/SNK will bring us more of these gems. These are games that you'll actually conquer and go back for more.

Oh look, they are! How cool is that? Bring on those KoF games and more importantly, Last Blade 1 and 2 and the superb Rage of Dragons (all never released in u.k/eu before).

Tell me about it! Used to buy games on spec, now I wait for them to come in to the office as a "try before you buy" type thing. Then I end up playing them to completion on the office copy and not buying them. I feel guilty over Shadow of the Colossus and Okami.
