  1. Yeah man! Wiki is awesome, cutest character since Barkle from Rupeeland.Love his voice too… Zaaaackuuuu! Anyway, I’ve been playing for around 4 hours now and am up to the second boss. It’s getting better with every stage! All of the buy Z&W campaigns were spot-on, this is undoubtedly a must have title for any Wii owner. 2008 is off to a fantastic start with this one!
  2. I played for around an hour this morning, did the first few stages in that time. I'm really impressed with the game so far. The presentation is indeed excellent, it's very solid in the visual and audio department (at last another Wii game to support true 16:9!) and definitely shows that a lot of effort has gone in to making this game look good. The developers have clearly taken inspiration from the Zelda series (especially Wind Waker) which is great. Gameplay wise it seems pretty perfect, the point and click mechanism works well, as do the motion controls. I can’t wait to see what kind of interesting Wii Remote actions will be required as the game progresses, already been some pretty cool stuff. Not come across anything too taxing yet but I’m sure it won’t be long before I get completely stuck on a puzzle, I can just tell it’s going to be one of those games. :wink: Oh, and I absolutely love Wiki already, what a great character!
  3. Supposedly to clip your Wii Remote to the back of the controller, but it seems like Nintendo got distracted somehow and forgot to make use of it. And so someone else beat them to it… http://www.joystiq.com/2007/02/19/diy-nintendo-wii-classic-controller-clip-holds-your-wiimote-so/
  4. Looking back it was definitely an excellent year, let down only by the usual, immensely bad scheduling of release dates. Seriously, when is this industry going to learn to space titles out over 12 months, rather than cram ‘em all in at the end of the year!? People do play games all year round you know, not only in the winter!! ARRGGGHHHH!!!! I (and I’m sure many others) missed out on a few games due to the crap planning. And as time goes on and new games get released, the incentive to go back and purchase those older titles kind of fades away.
  5. Zack & Wiki and No More Heroes are the next Wii games I'll be getting. And maybe BWii, not sure yet.
  6. Very wise indeed.And nice to see a release date moving forward for a change, although it would be even nicer if it was the European date. You definitely importing then Owen?
  7. Cheers steggy. Added those to the first post, put Bleach down with No More Heroes though as the 28th is a Thursday so I'm guessing it's meant to be the 29th.
  8. Pretty cool, like the text along the edge of the blade. 7/10.

    Wii Fit

    It seems that Mario Party DS has only a slight lead, plus it had almost a month head start over Wii Fit and has the luxury of being on a platform with over 60 million sales. It's only a matter of time before Wii Fit passes it. I've been watching quite a few videos of this recently, really liking the look of it. Especially the hula hoop level, the music on that one is awesome and I love the way it changes every time a new hoop is added. Snowboarding is another one that looks fantastic. I'm still convinced that Wii Fit is going to be huge in the US and Europe, just really wish we knew when it was coming.
  10. I'm currently playing Kirby's Dream Course, absolute gem of a game! I remember playing it years ago when it came out on the SNES, but only briefly and I never tried the 2 player mode back then either. Have done on the VC version though, and it's so much fun. Golf + Kirby = Awesome!
  11. Wow! That is jaw dropping stuff right there. It'd be amazing to see this idea used in a game. And so easy to set up too, just with a pair of those LED glasses and a stand for the Wii Remote. The whiteboard thing is also amazing, man this guy is a genius!
  12. Cheers guys, added Harvest Moon to the list. I've also added a little graph of the first year releases, you can see it in the "Released" section. 134 titles in total! I own 17 of those (would have been 18 but I traded in Red Steel) not bad for a year. Although I'd have preferred it if they were spaced out a bit better. Anyway, looking forward to see how many titles 2008 will bring.
  13. I really don't think that will happen though, I mean, if the game sells poorly it’s highly unlikely they'd want to risk a second version. And if it sells to their expectations or beyond (quite possible with a 16+ rating) then there would be no need for it. I reckon anyone waiting for an uncensored Euro version could be waiting forever. Certainly does. It's going to be pretty frustrating playing the PAL game after seeing that though. I’m going to try and avoid watching vids from the US version now, so I don’t end up noticing the differences during cut-scenes and stuff. Anyway, there are still so many things that I really like the look / sound of, the 8-Bit HUD, the customization, Travis' pad (and cat ) the wacky characters, just the general vibe of the game.
  14. Absolutely loving the sound of that! I was a huge Ghostbusters fan back in the day (still got a box full of the toys and action figures somewhere, all minus Proton packs though, God damn they broke / got lost easily. ) so yeah I'm pretty excited for this game, really hope it turns out well.
  15. Everyone seen this?: http://gonintendo.com/?p=31367 Hmm... very strange. Surely they realize it'll have an adverse effect on sales?
  16. Shame this game gets such a shite publisher in Europe, why couldn’t Ubisoft or better still Capcom pick up this title instead? Rising Star Games.
  17. Crazy stuff. Maybe they should get rid of their website too - oh wait, they already did that for 2 weeks. Sorry.
  18. Not sure of the US date, VG+ have it down for the 5th of February though. Not exactly a difficult decision, is it?
  19. Yeah surely it'll be a similar situation to RE4, censored in Japan and uncut for US / Europe. If it isn't though and the Euro game is cut, (together with the dodgy Q1 release list) I reckon US Wii imports are gonna hit the roof in early 2008. I'm certainly getting more and more tempted.
  20. Hey guys, leaderboard is now open! Check it out: http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18118 : peace: In other news... I got platinum medals on all stages today. :awesome: Doesn't look like you get anything for it though, not even staff credits.
  21. Finally managed to get on the damn site! Despite the complete shambles that was getting this thing up and running, I do really like the new design. And the stars catalogue is very nice, didn't get anything though as I'm hoping we might see the Wii SNES controller at some point. Has anyone registered more than 1 product today? If so, do you have to fill in that questionnaire every time?
  22. I can't access the new site either, only the French one.
  23. Just watched that trailer, looks nice but I don't think it'll be more fun on the DS. It won't be able to compete with the physical movement and feeling of getting totally knackered like on the Wii version. Cool that there are some new events in it though, cycling really should have been in the Wii game. Anyone know if there's any connectivity between the Wii and DS versions?
  24. Cheers for posting Maiky-NiSuTe. : peace: Where did you get that list from?
  25. Yeah I did the final level last night...
