Nice, i'll definetly be picking this up, if only to support the developer and play the game for the first time with a controller rather than a keyboard ;)

did it ever get ported to the ds?

I remember downloading a cave story ds program that had the levels and bad guys, but they couldn't interact with you. You couldn't shoot them or progress throughout the game. It was a prototype. I hope thats not abandoned.

The DS demo that was released was just a proof-of-concept, but apparantly the team are still working on porting the complete game to the DS - although, with Cave Story now being sold as a WiiWare title, perhaps Nintendo might have an issue with people porting the game for free to the DS.

I downloadrd the PC version a few days ago and it woudn't install some directory with an Japanese name. Not so cool since I was apt to play it, I might try this iteration if it lives up the PC version.

For anyone that's interested, Jeremy Parish on Cave Story.

Finally, this game is getting out there. I thought it'd eventually go to the 360 Live Arcade, but this gets me more motivated to get a Wii as I'm sort of starting to hate the 360 lately anyway.

As if I needed another reason to get myself a Wii. I'm really happy this one will get the chance to get some more exposure. It's a fantastic game, easily the best freeware game of all time, and one of my all-time faves.
I wanted to be a Teminator but they require you have an armored hyperalloy skeleton and mine's mostly recycled truck tires.

I really enjoyed Cave Story for PC, and it's cool that Studio Pixel will actually make some money off of it now!
