Cave Story for WiiWare

If you haven't been keeping up, check out the blog at http://www.cavestory.com

Facts:
-Cave Story is one of the greatest indie-games ever made.
-The WiiWare version will cost under 1000 points.
-There will be new graphics and music, but both can be switched off for the original graphics or music. You can even mismatch so one level has classic music and the next has new music. There might even be optional lyrics for the new music.
-There will be Downloadable Content.
-"Big News" is coming in less than 2 weeks according to the developer.
-Estimated release date: "beginning of May or even late April."

This will be the best thing to hit the Wii Shop Channel in months. I can't wait.

It still is free. Pixel, the creator of Cave Story, is only selling it for WiiWare, but has publically stated that the PC version shall remain free.

The WiiWare version is simply worth paying for since you give a man who deserves credit payment for an awesome game, you get new features, DLC adds more content, and etc.

As someone who has just discovered how great Cave Story is, I would gladly pay cash monies for it on the Wii.

Cave Story

More Cave Story

Even more Cave Story

And the option to change to classic graphics and music is an awesome idea.

The power of Cave Story is wondrous indeed !

Probably one of the greatest game ever made. It has everything a gamer wants. I personally can't wait to try it on my Wii. I wonder if they added some bonuses to the game ?

I love Cave Story, but unless they add something other than new graphics and music(and I really wish they hadn't added those, because the original graphics/music was so much better), I'm not gonna waste cheddar on it.

Again, they are OPTIONAL. You can play the WiiWare version with the classic graphics and music.

Also, there is going to be DLC so I expect one of the following:

-Two Player Mode?
-Curly Brace Mode?
-Boss Rush Mode?
-Another Cave Level?
-Balrog Mode?
