A mysterious team named Team Iron is about to release a new Wii game named Pissed: To be released to the public after Revision 2013. A poster is now public, which we do not want to hold back from the public. Looks disgusting, we shall wait and see!
Update (30.03.2013 @ 22:19):
Now there is a video of the game available, but the download will be set in place sometime on Monday.

SaveGame Manager GX by dj_skual allows you to extract/install SaveGames and Miis from/to your Wii; data.bin files not supported. It allows savegames to be copied from the Wii to an SD card, including savegames that cannot normally be copied from the system menu. It is a modification of the Savegame Manager from Waninkoko. Unlike Savegame Manager, Savegame Manager GX has a Wii-like user interface.

Don’t Get Crushed by ThatOtherPerson is fairly easy to play: Use the left analog stick to move the grey ball left or right and avoid the other balls as they bounce across the screen. If you get crushed under one of the bouncing balls then its game over and your score is reset to zero. Your high score is automatically saved to your hard drive.
Release notes:
Here are two more updated games of mine. Both have online scoreboards (don’t forget to go check your scores by hitting the network button in the bottom right corner of the home menu) and all the other coolness that my other recent releases have had. They are really ports of the PS3 ports of the original games. So they don’t use SDL anymore and look (and probably play) slightly differently from their previous Wii versions. Neither of them has music (as I remember it the Cascade Beneath music wasn’t very good anyways).

Cascade Beneath by ThatOtherPerson is a simple fall down clone. You just move from side to side and try to let the platforms push you off the top of the screen as they slide up.
