I have to say “Fallen Heroes” was quite a challenge at first because it uses GUILT where you most likely would have depended on using the Healing Touch. You do get to switch between Derek and Nozomi when moving onto the next patient, though. The only problem is you can’t really call these operations “new” because what they’ve only done is put two or more GUILTs together for each of the operations. Another fun “operation”!īesides the sparse number of Z operations there’s also the whole new chapter 6 to the story when Nozomi meets Derek in the UK. This time turning screws by rotating the Wiimote and pulling it towards you to pull out pins. Yes, she has her medical licence removed in Japan but I’m sure Delphi could have sorted something out.Ītlus actually redesigned the bomb from the original game too so once again, you get to make full use of the Wiimote to disarm it. That would have given us some more new content to play with. Say when she wasn’t operating for them, they could have had her running her own private practice. I’m sure Atlus could have added more in even though Nozomi was helping Delphi for the most part. There were only five of them, one unlocked after completing each of the original DS chapters. Unfortunately there were simply too few of these new Z operations. Impossible to do in real life but it made the operation very fun! The battery dies then you end up with only the flash of a camera. My favourite would probably have to be the flashlight operation where you started off operating with a lightpen in the dark. Connecting the bone fragments and transplanting were nice and original. I had fun with the new Z operations which feature Nozomi Weaver’s story when she joins Delphi. Knowing what to do already obviously helped but, this kind of shows what the new original content is worth… Don’t get me wrong though, it’s still short quality stuff! Loading up my DS game again, I found the original took me around 10 hours to finish which is a bit of difference. Well, maybe longer if you end up re-trying a lot and definitely longer if you try to XS rank every operation in every difficulty mode. Even if you count the seemingly impossible X missions that get unlocked afterwards you still only get about only another hour’s worth of gameplay. Well, I played through all the story operations on normal (which is the equivalent of the original DS game’s difficulty) and it took just over six hours to beat.

Here’s my follow-up post that I said I’ll write from my last impressions of the game. The latest titles for Nintendo’s classic series such as Paper Mario and Metroid Prime 3 are yet to come out. Good to see Trauma Center Second Opinion sitting in the top 10 Wii titles on Amazon! But considering how there are currently few good Wii games out here in PAL land, it might not be that surprising.
